Published Friday, Sep 16 2011, 15:21 BST | By Ryan Love | Add comment
Adele's mammoth chart reign shows no signs of slowing down as 21 secures another week on top of the Irish album chart.
The Londoner's hugely successful second album holds the number one spot, while Ed Sheeran debuts in second place with his + collection.
The repackaged More Mayhem sees Imelda May return to the Top 10 at number six. Laura Marling also has a new entry with A Creature I Don't Know, which charts at eight.
There is little movement in the Top 20, although Rihanna's Loud - now in its 44th week on the chart - makes a ten-spot leap to 19.
Other notable climbs are made by Jessie J's Who You Are, up eight to number 22; Johnny Cash's The Ultimate Collection, up 36 spots to number 25; and Paolo Nutini's Sunny Side Up, which rises nine to number 34.
Outside the Top 10, Dream Theatre score the only other new entry in the Top 40, with A Dramatic Turn of Events scoring a number 36 debut.
