On April 25, 2025, Taylor Swift reclaimed the number one spot on the U.K. Albums Chart once more with The Tortured Poets Department. A recent physical reissue of the album, featuring a special signed CD version to celebrate its first anniversary on April 19, contributed to its rise up the chart by 23 spots, giving Swift her eleventh non-consecutive week at the top in the U.K. This is now her longest run at number one, as the album remains popular even a year after it was initially released.
In April 2024, when The Tortured Poets Department was launched, it broke several records, such as having the highest first-week sales for an album since Ed Sheeran’s Divide in 2017, according to Billboard. Remarkably, it also outperformed Adele’s 30 (released in 2021) to accomplish this milestone.
The achievement of Swift’s latest album further enriches her remarkable career in music charts, where she’s already made notable advancements. On the U.S. Billboard 200, the album has maintained the top spot for 17 non-overlapping weeks, underscoring its widespread appeal across the globe.
This year, Taylor Swift overtook Madonna as the female artist with the highest number of No. 1 albums on the U.K. music chart. Her impact and popularity remain robust, showing no signs of waning.
Besides Swift’s achievement, the remaining top five U.K. albums are packed with impressive releases. Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet maintains its position at No. 2, while Ed Sheeran’s +–=÷× (Tour Collection) takes the third spot. Fleetwood Mac’s 50 Years – Don’t Stop moves up to No. 4, and The Weeknd’s The Highlights completes the top five at No. 5.
The Nigerian-American musician Davido achieved a new peak in his career with his album 5ive, climbing up to the No. 7 position, and Fontaines D.C.’s album Romance experienced a significant surge, moving from spot No. 42 to No. 24 on the charts following its reissue as a deluxe edition.
