Two weeks at No.1 for Keating album

Rex Features

Ronan Keating has notched up a second week on top of the UK albums chart with Songs For My Mother.

The album, Keating's fifth studio effort as a solo artist, is a tribute to his late mother Marie, who died of breast cancer eleven years ago.

Kings of Leon bounce back to two with Only By The Night, while Lady GaGa rebounds to three with The Fame.

The highest new entry of the week comes from the Pet Shop Boys, who debut at four with Yes, duly scoring the 12th top ten album of their career.

Meanwhile, Lily Allen bounces back to six with former chart-topper It's Not You, It's Me, while Akon climbs to a new peak of eight with Freedom.
