Alicia Keys scores UK Number One album (February 7)

Owl City hold onto the top spot in the singles chart

Alicia Keys‘ fourth album ‘The Element Of Freedom’ has climbed to Number One in the UK charts tonight (February 7).

The US soul singer released the record last December, but this week is the first it has occupied the top spot.

‘The Element Of Freedom’ fought off tough competition from Dutch violinist Andre Rieu and his album ‘Forever Vienna’, thought to be the highest charting classical album this century.
