Military Wives Top the Boss

MILITARY WIVES TOP THE BOSS: The Military Wives, a group formed from the wives and girlfriends of British servicemen in Afghanistan, leapfrogged over Bruce Springsteen’s Wrecking Ball, which dropped to #5, to take the top spot on the U.K. album charts this week. The Decca/Universal release, In My Dreams, which includes the #1 U.K. Christmas single, “Wherever You re,” sold 59k last week, to add to its opening salvo of 56k. Meanwhile, Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" started a fifth aggregate week atop the U.K. singles chart, with 71k in new sales for an overall total of 636k, ahead of a #3-2 move for Nicki Minaj's "Starships.” (3/19p)
