JINGLE BUBLE ALL THE WAY

Michael Buble’s not naughty, but his Reprise Christmas album sure is nice.

The crooner’s collection of holiday classics is the runaway winner of the year-end sweepstakes, climbing to #1 for the first time on the HITS Album sales chart, up 38% and racking up 301k for a six-week total topping one million.

Geffen’s Mary J. Blige (#6), Def Jam/IDJ’s Rihanna (#7), Decca’s Andrea Bocelli Concerto Live in Central Park album (#17-8, +13%), Capitol/EMI’s Now 40 (#9) and Coldplay (#10) complete the Top 10.
