Susan Boyle tops global album sales

Susan Boyle had the best global selling album of 2009 with I Dreamed a Dream, which sold 8.3 million units. This figure was sharply up on the 6.8 million copies of Coldplay's Viva La Vida which topped the global album charts in 2008. The death of Michael Jackson, aged just 50, propelled three albums of his work into the global top ten. Two were compilation albums and the third was Thriller, his seminal 1982 album, widely believed to be the best-selling title of all time.

Top 10 global selling albums 2009:

Susan Boyle I Dreamed a Dream
Black Eyed Peas The E.N.D.(The Energy Never Dies)
Michael Jackson This Is It
Taylor Swift Fearless
Lady Gaga The Fame
Michael Bublé Crazy Love
U2 No Line on the Horizon
Michael Jackson Thriller
Michael Jackson Number Ones
Andrea Bocelli My Christmas

They definitely suffer from being overplayed. "Overplayed" is a massive understatement actually.
