The top of the US album chart remains unchanged again, with Taylor Swift 's "Fearless" spending its eighth week at No. 1.
With sales of 63,000 copies during its most recent week in stores, "Fearless" leads a trio of albums that remain unmoved atop The Billboard 200; Beyonce 's "I Am ... Sasha Fierce" and Nickelback 's "Dark Horse" hold on to the Nos. 2 and 3 positions with sales of 51,000 copies and 45,000 copies, respectively. (Billboard bases its flagship chart on Nielsen SoundScan retail data.)
Meanwhile, Kanye West 's "808s and Heartbreak" climbs one notch to No. 4 with sales of 39,000, and the "Twilight" soundtrack follows by moving up a spot to No. 5 with sales of 33,000.
Rounding out the Top 10 are Keyshia Cole 's "A Different Me" at No. 6 with sales of 31,000; Britney Spears ' "Circus" at No. 7 with only a handful less than "A Different Me"; Jamie Foxx 's "Intuition" at No. 8 with 30,000; the "Notorious" soundtrack at No. 9 with 29,000; and Mariah Carey 's "Ballads" at No. 10 with slightly less than "Notorious."
