Ed Sheeran – who's in town for three sold-out shows at the O2 this weekend – still tops the Irish album chart with his + which incredibly was released 70 weeks ago. Hats off to Mr. Sheeran.

Rihanna and One Direction swap places on this weeks chart with the Barbadian's Unapologetic album at No.2 and the all-conquering boy-band's Take Me Home at No.3.

Emile Sande – who has just received four Brit Award nominations – is at No.4 with Our Version Of Events while Calvin Harris drops down one position to No.5 with 18 Months.

Taylor Swift, Lumineers, Mumford & Sons, The Script (highest Irish entry) and Bruno Mars make up the top 10.
