'How Big How Blue How Beautiful', the magnificent new album by Florence & The Machine, missed the no.1 spot, despite healthy 273.000 initial sales. The set was overtaked on the Global Album Chart by Mr.Children's new effort 'Reflection (Drip)', which moved 355.000 units in its first week at retail, (according to Oricon). But in the english-speaking territories 'How Big' is the clear winner this week, the album opens atop the charts in the USA (127.900 sales), United Kingdom (66.800 sales), Canada (19.000 sales) and Australia (15.700 sales). Behind Mr.Children and Florence & The Machine returns 'Love Me Right', a re-package set of Exo's current album 'Exodus', at no.3 with 173.000 units. Taylor Swift's '1989' holds the no.4 spot in its 32nd week on the tally with another 66.000 sales, a total of huge 7.449.000 so far. Rounds out the top five is 'In Colour' by Jamie XX with 65.000 sales.
