Billie Eilish is looking at a second week at #1 on the U.K. Official Album Charts as When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (Interscope) sits 3,500 combined sales ahead of newcomer Out Of The Blue by Mike & The Mechanics.
Out Of The Blue (BMG) is currently leading the way on physical sales and if they hold their position, it will be their highest charting album since The Living Years reached #2 in 1988. Khalid’s Free Spirit (Right Hand/RCA) is offering a challenge, though, sitting just 700 combined sales behind Blue at #3.
On the singles side, the original version of Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” (Columbia) looks like it will make a significant leap into the Top 5 from #39. It is sitting at #4, surging since the release of a remix featuring Billy Ray Cyrus.
The top two are looking to go unchanged: Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved” (Virgin EMI) at #1 for a seventh and Eilish's “Bad Guy” at #2.
