Adele Returns To Top Of Album Chart, ‘Glee’ Warblers Sing Out At #2

Adele’s Platinum-selling 21 jumps back up for a fifth non-consecutive week at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart (with another 153,000 copies moved), following an Easter week sales boost. And with Foo Fighters’ Wasting Light now pushed down to #3, the Glee: The Music Presents The Warblers (86,000) set elbows its way into the runner-up position. The latest Glee compilation is the only debut in the Top 10 this week. However, another cast recording barrels into the upper tier of the chart in the form of the Lemonade Mouth soundtrack (up 14 spots to #4 with 69,000 sold). Billboard notes that the album benefited from repeat airings of Lemonade Mouth on the Disney Channel during the week before Easter. (Enter our LM wardrobe giveaway contest!)

Getting back to Adele, she now has the distinction of being bumped off the top of both the UK and U.S. album charts last week by Lollapalooza headliners Foo Fighters, only to reclaim the throne in each country seven days later.
