Jess Glynne tops UK album chart on debut

Jess Glynne has topped the UK album chart with her debut “I Cry When I Laugh”, calling it an “insane dream.”

The singer already has five number one singles to her name, including Rather Be with Clean Bandit and her Tinie Tempah collaboration Not Letting Go.

“It's the most insane feeling to have your whole album accepted by the British public,” said Glynne.

“Fight Song” singer Rachel Platten said she was “excited and proud” to top the UK singles chart. After a close race she sold almost 3,000 more copies than this week's number two, Felix Jaehn's “Ain't Nobody (Loves Me Better)” ft Jasmine Thompson. “Fight Song” has made the top 10 in the US, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Belgium so far.

Calvin Harris & Disciples' “How Deep Is Your Love” was number four, while also being the UK's most-streamed track for a third week running with 2.44m listens.
