LEWIS Capaldi’s Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent has returned to the top of the UK albums chart on its first anniversary.
The Scottish singer’s debut album also scored its 10th non-consecutive week at number one, according to the Official Charts Company.
It has not exited the top 10 since its release on May 17 last year, only dipping as low as number seven in November 2019.
The success tops off a bumper 12 months for the 23-year-old.
Capaldi’s single Someone You Loved has spent more weeks in the top 10 than any song by a British act.
Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent is also one of only 20 albums to have logged 52 consecutive weeks or more in the UK top 10.
Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia is at two, Harry Styles’s Fine Line is at three, Drake’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes is at four, and rapper Future’s High Off Life is at five. Charli XCX’s latest album, How I’m Feeling Now, recorded at her home in lockdown, enters the charts at number 33.
On the singles chart DaBaby’s Rockstar featuring Roddy Ricch retains the top spot and enjoys its strongest week yet.
Doja Cat’s Say So is at two, while Drake’s former number one, Toosie Slide, is at three.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
