Maroon 5 climbed one place to number three with their fourth album Overexposure. Emeli Sande’s Our Version Of Events was at number four.

Paloma Faith’s Fall To Grace climbed 11 places to number five.

In the singles chart, grime star Wiley held on to the number one position for a second week with Heatwave. The track is Wiley’s first UK solo number one.

Calvin Harris also enjoyed a second week at number two with his track We’ll Be Coming Back, featuring Example.

High position new entries included Lawson with Taking Over Me at number three, their second top five hit of 2012, and DJ-Redlight went in at number five with Lost In Your Love.
