Adele Tops Billboard

Adele Tops Billboard Albums Chart Once Again
British singer approaching 1.4 million in sales with 21


 Adele's 21 sold more than enough copies to hold on to the #1 spot yet again. With 124,000 units moved, according to figures provided by Nielsen SoundScan, Adele is poised to cross the 1.4 million mark in the U.S. after two and a half months.





With no new entries, the top 10 consists of a reshuffling of the usual suspects, with the Foo Fighters climbing a notch to #2 with Wasting Light,despite a 52 percent sales slide, followed by the indefatigable Mumford & Sons, whose Sigh No More continues to impress, moving up four spots to #3 on sales of 32,000 after more than a year on the charts.
The rest of the top 10: Britney Spears' Femme Fatale (#4, 30,000, down 34 percent), Lemonade Mouth (#5, 30,000, down 57 percent), Chris Brown's F.A.M.E. (#6, 28,000, down 22 percent), Glee: The Music Presents the Warblers (#7, 28,000, down 68 percent), Katy Perry'sTeenage Dream (#8, 24,000, down 31 percent), Wiz Khalifa's Rolling Papers (#9, 24,000, down 30 percent) and Paul Simon's So Beautiful or So What (#10, 24,000, down 36 percent).
