Earlier this month, ticket sales for next year’s Progress tour broke all records to secure Progress as the fastest and biggest selling tour in UK history.

I am starting to hate "Make You Feel My Love" thanks to The X Factor.

Susan Boyle wins second UK No. 1 album
Susan Boyle has taken her Christmas-themed sophomore album The Gift to the top of the UK album chart.

The 49-year-old Britain's Got Talent alumnus, whose previous album I Dreamed A Dream shifted over ten million copies and became the fastest-selling global debut record of all time, thanked her fans for their continued dedication.

"Thank you to everyone who has supported me all this time," she declared. "My dreams just keep coming true."

Martin Talbot of the Official Charts Company added: "It is a great achievement by Susan Boyle, who has now scored two official number one albums in the UK in less than 12 months - not bad for someone who was unknown outside of her home village little over 18 months ago."

Boyle's successful return results in James Blunt just missing out on his third UK number one album, as Some King Of Trouble arrives at four behind chart high-fliers Bon Jovi and Cheryl Cole.

Meanwhile, Katy Perry's former chart-topping effort Teenage Dream returns to the top ten after climbing three places to nine, while Cee Lo Green scores the second-highest new entry of the week with The Lady Killer at ten.

Further down the chart, See My Friends by Ray Davis is another high-placing new entry at 12, while Men In Scarlett by The Chelsea Pensioners, a group of residents at the Royal Hospital with a combined age of 550 years, make their debut at 14.

Behind them is Neil Diamond's Dreams, which tumbles ten places to 18, Elvis Presley compilation album Viva Elvis, which lands at 19, and Jay-Z's Hits Collection at 20.

The top ten in full:

1. (-) Susan Boyle: 'The Gift'
2. (2) Bon Jovi: 'Greatest Hits'
3. (1) Cheryl Cole: 'Messy Little Raindrops'
4. (-) James Blunt: 'Some Kind Of Trouble'
5. (6) Michael Bublé: 'Crazy Love'
6. (4) Kings of Leon: 'Come Around Sundown'
7. (3) Rumer: 'Seasons Of My Soul'
8. (5) Rod Stewart: 'Fly Me To The Moon: The Great American Songbook Volume Five'
9. (12) Katy Perry: 'Teenage Dream'
10. (-) Cee Lo Green: 'The Lady Killer'

Rihanna retains singles chart No. 1
Rihanna has fought off competition from Take That's highly-anticipated comeback single to keep 'Only Girl (In The World)' at the top of the UK singles chart.

The 22-year-old singer relegated 'The Flood', Take That's first release with original member Robbie Williams for over 15 years, into the runner-up spot, thereby giving them their sixteenth top five track.

Meanwhile, McFly also make their UK chart return with Taio Cruz collaboration 'Shine A Light', which at four becomes the fifteenth top five hit of their career.

Cheryl Cole slips down the top ten and settles in at seven two weeks after 'Promise This' topped the chart, while Adele's 'Make You Feel My Love', which first entered at 26 in 2008, climbs to nine from last week's 19 following the song's performance by X Factor contender Rebecca Ferguson.

However, an appearance on the talent show fails to lift 2005 winner Shayne Ward into the top ten as his comeback single 'Gotta Be Somebody' debuts at 12, sandwiched between two other new entries in the form of 'The Time (Dirty Bit)' by Black Eyed Peas and Pink's 'Raise Your Glass' at 11 and 13 respectively.

Other new entries on this week's chart include Gyptian's 'Hold You' at 16 and The Royal British Legion's Remembrance Day release 'Two Minute Silence' at 20.

Rihanna at #1 again

Here we go again. One more amazing british song blocked by the same american pop song.
Good times at UK charts are over.

[RihMark]

Only Girl is influenced by Euro-pop....so
And Take That has had plenty of number ones.

How much did OG sell? And how much did SuBo's album sell?
