It looks like Adele had a very good 2011. The famous singer, who is currently recovering from throat surgery and said last week she may not release a new album for a couple years, sat atop the music world in 2011 with the number-one single, number-one video and, unless something miraculous happens in the next three-four weeks, the number-one album.
Adele's "21" is really close to be the first album to sell five million copies in 12 months since Usher's "Confessions" in 2004.
Based on Nielsen SoundScan, here are the top-selling albums of 2011:
1. Adele, 21 - 4,817,000 copies sold
2. Lady Gaga, Born This Way - 1,973,000
3. Lil Wayne, Tha Carter IV - 1,776,000
4. Jason Aldean, My Kinda Party - 1,389,000
5. Mumford & Sons, Sigh No More - 1,328,000
6. Jay-Z/Kanye West, Watch The Throne - 1,124,000
7. Michael Buble, Christmas - 1,038,000
8. Beyonce, 4 - 956,000
9. Lady Antebellum, Own The Night - 908,000
10. Katy Perry- Teenage Dream - 907,000by FW Editor |
