New entries and high climbers
Outside the Top 10, Chris Brown’s new album Royalty debuts at Number 23 today. The singer’s seventh solo studio collection follows his collaborative Fan Of A Fan record with Tyga, which hit Number 7 back in March this year.
Following its record-breaking opening weekend at the box office, Star Wars’ The Force Awakens OST – helmed by legendary composer John Williams - goes straight in at Number 25.
And finally, two Christmas albums make gains today: Michael Buble’s Christmas jumps from 15 to 12, and Kylie Minogue’s Christmas leaps up two places from 22 to 20.
