Ed Sheeran replaces One Direction at chart summit
X leaps back to top spot
While Ed Sheeran might be friends with the One Direction boys, there’s no love lost on the charts; the flame-haired charmer has knocked the boyband from top spot as X reassumes pole position.
Hozier, at No. 3, The Coronas’ The Long Way (No. 7) and The Script’s No Sound Without Silence (No. 9) ensure a healthy Irish representation, alongside international superstars like Taylor Swift and Sam Smith. It’s not all hip young things, either – AC/DC see their Rock or Bust shoot straight into sixth position, the highest new entry of the week.
