With the release of Adele’s sophomore album 21, the entire album debuts on the chart – including three top-ten entries led by “Set Fire To The Rain” at #2 – as does her BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge cover of Cheryl Cole’s “Promise This.” “Rolling In The Deep,” therefore, obviously holds at #1. In non-Adele news, Brett Dennen manages a top-twenty debut with “Sydney (I’ll Come Running).”

Adele and P!nk hold onto the top two, with The Script’s former chart-topper “For The First Time” rebounding to #3 after a week down at #5. New Lady Gaga single “Born This Way” is the week’s highest debut at #26.
