After eight consecutive weeks at number one on the US albums chart, Creed's Weathered is finally dethroned.

It is Jackson's first number one album and is largely being driven by his current hit single Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning), which tackles the events of September 11.

Jackson aside, it was another week in which sales tumbled across the board -- every other album in the Top 20 posted declines week-on-week, while just six of the Top 100 albums managed to make gains.

The album jumps 49-38 this week, while 7 Days moves 20-16 on the Hot 100, meaning it is now just three notches away from equalling the number 13 peak of David's debut single Fill Me In.

Elsewhere on the albums chart, Enya's A Day Without Rain holds at number 10, while Pink Royd's 10-week residency of the Top 20 is over as Echoes moves 19-22. But there is good news for Coldplay, whose Parachutes album has moved 113-96-84 in the last fortnight, after it was nominated for three Grammy awards. The million-selling album peaked at number 51 more than a ...
