呆鵝無敵！繼2015年度總冠軍 ADELE《25》繼續稱霸2016上半年專輯榜
以52.3萬張銷量奪冠（播放呆鵝笑聲）
該專輯也毫無懸念成為英國史上第26張總銷量突破300萬的專輯
《21》同時也出現在#29
除了ADELE DAVID BOWIE跟SIA也有兩張以上的專輯出現在上半年榜
年初隕落的DAVID BOWIE以其第25張大碟《BLACKSTAR》領軍 分佔#2、#5、#15、#34、#37
SIA則是以《THIS IS ACTING》跟《1,000 FORMS OF FEAR》分佔#12、#40
《BLACKSTAR》發行第一週(1/21)綜合銷量14.6萬張、第二週(1/28)綜合銷量8.1萬張
是2016上半年單週綜合銷量最高的前兩名 如果單就純銷量來看的話
《BLACKSTAR》發行第一週(1/21)純銷量14.3萬張、第二週(1/28)純銷量8萬張
也是2016上半年單週純銷量最高的前兩名
TOP 5中唯一非英國籍歌手為季軍JUSTIN BIEBER《PURPOSE》
也是TOP 5中唯一一張未奪冠的專輯
上半年26週中 有22週在TOP 10裡（累計有28週在TOP 10）
《PURPOSE》同時是今年目前為止串流次數最高專輯
發行時曾創下單週最高串流數量專輯的BEYONCE《LEMONADE》
在純銷量榜排#5、串流榜未擠進TOP 10 這個結果蠻令人驚訝的
顯示BEYONCE的專輯仍是以實際銷量為大宗
而發行後隨即改寫BEYONCE單週最高串流數量專輯的DRAKE《VIEWS》
在綜合銷售排#8、串流#2、銷售未擠進TOP 10
這個結果顯示《VIEWS》的銷量數字主要來自串流
而在串流榜拿下#5的RIHANNA《ANTI》 在綜合銷量榜僅排#18
顯見在純銷量榜的成績恐怕是更為慘淡
《ANTI》也是RIHANNA八張原創專輯中 在英國專輯榜最高名次第三低的（#7）
僅比《MUSIC OF THE SUN》（#35）、《RATED R》（#9）要好
上述三張專輯外加《A GIRL LIKE ME》（#5）外 其餘四張專輯在英國皆奪冠
