NEVERMIND THE BOLLOCKS—IT'S THE U.K. TOP 10

The Top 10 Albums and Singles Across the Pond

Original Pop Idol winner Will Young clearly doesn't need to prove himself in the U.K., as 85 Proof—his sixth studio album—tops the album chart there. So far, all of his preceeding albums have been certified Platinum across the pond, despite the fact that he remains largely unknown stateside. English alt/rock band The Vaccines followed closely behind, bowing at #2, while Yank rapper ASAP Rocky rounded out the Top 10 with his latest release.

8. Ed Sheeran, X (Asylum)
9. James Bay, The Chaos and the Calm (Republic)
10. ASAP Rocky, At.Long.Last.ASAP (ASAP Worldwide/Polo/RCA)*

On the singles side, Jason Derulo's "Want to Want Me" takes the throne at #1 in its first week, as the song moves #19-11 at BBC Radio 1. Meanwhile, Martin Garrix's new single with Usher debuts at #9 and Major Lazer f/MO & DJ Snake's dancey "Lean On" holds strong at #7 as the track charts at Capital, leaping #50-37.
