Lady Antebellum is number 1



Six new albums entered the Billboard Top 10 this week, but none could best the two titles that have dominated the chart for the last five weeks. Lady Antebellum’s “Need You Now” (Capitol Nashville), which was released in February and spent its first two weeks at No. 1, returned to the peak position with 126,000 copies sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Sade’s “Soldier of Love” (Epic), the top seller for the last three weeks, fell to No. 2 with 79,000. Landing in the No. 3 spot, with 71,000 copies sold, is “Hillbilly Bone” (Warner Brothers Nashville), the new album from Blake Shelton, above. “My Best Days” (RCA Nashville), the debut album by Danny Gokey, a finalist on “American Idol” last year, opened at fourth place with 65,000. “Almost Alice” (Buena Vista), a collection of new songs by Avril Lavigne, Owl City and others that were inspired by Tim Burton’s new film, “Alice in Wonderland,” is No. 5 with 58,000 copies sold.
