Debuting at No. 2 with sales of 291,000 is Kelly Clarkson 's "My December," according to Billboard. The two strong debuts push Bon Jovi 's "Lost Highway," last week's top-selling album, to No. 3 on sales of 125,000. Billboard bases its album chart on Nielsen Soundscan retail reports.
The White Stripes ' "Icky Thump" also falls two notches to No. 4 with 88,000 sold, while Brad Paisley 's "5th Gear" slips from No. 3 to No. 5 with sales of 81,000.
Rounding out the Top 10 are Amy Winehouse 's "Back to Black," Ryan Adams ' "Easy Tiger," Linkin Park 's "Minutes to Midnight," Paul McCartney 's "Memory Almost Full" and Maroon 5's "It Won't Be Soon Before Long."
