The biggest sales week for Adele!!!
The last time a non debuting album sold more was in 2008 when Josh Groban's Noel sold 757,000 during christmas
19 sold 87,000!!!
I'm sure the last one means that she has set a record for the most singles sold in 1 week from an album by a living british artist, only beaten by The Beatles.
And her speech was cut short!!!!!!!!!!!
