Even though Adele "21" did not manage to bring those huge numbers for this week, the 144,000 copies she sold were just enough to bring her back to the top of the Billboard 200 list, dethroning Michael Buble who now has officially put his album "Christmas" on the 2nd spot of best selling albums of 2011, snatching the place from Lady Gaga at the last minute!
This week, following Adele, Drake landed the #2 place, finding also Florence + The Machine's must buy "Ceremonials" and Rihanna's recently certified gold "Talk That Talk" among the top 10 as well...
