U.K. MIDWEEKS: TAYLOR TAKES A LEAD

12/14/20

Taylor Swift is heading for her sixth U.K. Official Albums chart-topper while three of her songs from Evermore (EMI) are eyeing the Top 40. “Willow” is tops, starting at #4.While Swift has the most download sales and album streams at the halfway point, the biggest physical seller of the week so far is Neil Diamond’s Classic Diamonds with the London Symphony Orchestra (Capitol), which currently sits at #2.

Another orchestral album looks set to make the Top 5—Johnny Cash and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’s Johnny Cash and the RPO (Legacy), which is up 11 places to #4 today.

Mancunian band James starts at #10 with live album Live In Extraordinary Times (BMG), while The Killers’ Imploding The Mirage (EMI) re-enters at #11 following its vinyl release.
