Published Friday, Sep 23 2011, 15:20 BST | By Ryan Love | Add comment
Kasabian have failed to knock Adele from number one, as 21 continues to top the Irish album chart.
The critically-acclaimed album notches up its 35th week in the chart. Kasabian, who have discussed each track on Velociraptor! exclusively with Digital Spy, debut at number two.
Following on from the success of single 'Jar of Hearts', Christina Perri's lovestrong enters the chart at number five. A third new entry in the top comes from Bressie, whose Colourblind Stereo sits at number eight.
Despite featuring Lady GaGa, Michael Bublé and the late Amy Winehouse among others, Tony Bennett's Duets II fails to enter the top 10, instead debuting at number 13.
Other new entries to the chart include John Spillane's A Rock To Cling To at number 19, Pearl Jam's Pearl Jam Twenty at 21, and Opeth's Heritage in the lower end of the chart at 34.
Notable climbers include: Mumford & Sons's Sigh No More, up 47 to number 23; and The Script's Science & Faith, which rises from 72 to 33.
