  • Taylor Swift has scored a sixth week at the top of the album charts as her album Fearless continues to dominate sales well into the New Year.The country star shifted just 72,000 copies of the album in the past week, but it was enough to keep Nickelback, Kanye West and Beyonce off the top of the charts.Fearless has become the first album to spend six weeks at number one since 50 Cent's The Massacre in 2005.Nickelback's Dark Horse jumps up to two, while West's 808s and Heartbreak remains at three. Beyonce's I Am... Sasha Fierce and the soundtrack to hit movie Twilight round out the top five.The top debut belongs to DJ Skribble, whose Total Club Hits 2 enters the countdown at 16.

  • Rolling Stone on Taylor's Fearless dominating the charts- If you thought last week’s sales were slow, check out these numbers. Taylor Swift sold 72,000 copies of Fearless — 17,000 less than last week — to take Number One. Nickelback’s Dark Horse jumped from five to Number Two, followed by Kanye West’s 808s & Heartbreak, BeyoncĂ©’s I Am … Sasha Fierce and the Twilight soundtrack. Only three albums sold more than 50,000 copies, and the Number 10 disc, Akon’s Freedom didn’t crack 27,000. That, in a word, is bleak — and might explain the closing of Virgin Megastore’s massive Times Square location.

With North American sales of her self-titled debut and Fearless exceeding 4 million copies in 2008, Swift was the best-selling artist across all genres of music last year. 2008 was a stellar year for Taylor Swift. Her sophomore release, Fearless, reached double platinum in just four weeks and was the year's biggest debut for any female artist, and the fourth highest debut of 2008, over all. Taylor's latest single, "White Horse" is top-20 at Canadian Country Radio and "Love Story" broke into the top-10 on Canadian Top-40 Radio. With Fearless, Taylor became the only artist this decade to hold the #1 and #2 slots on the Billboard Country Albums Chart.
