Killers best Guns N' Roses for U.K. No. 1

December 01, 2008 In an all-new top three on the U.K. album chart, the Killers' "Day & Age" (Vertigo/Universal) took the No. 1 spot ahead of Guns N' Roses' "Chinese Democracy" (Black Frog/Geffen), while Take That scored its 11th U.K. career No. 1 single with "Greatest Day" (Polydor/Universal). The Killers thus complete a perfect trio of studio albums: "Hot Fuss" was released in June 2004 and spent two weeks at the summit the following January, and "Sam's Town" spent three weeks at the top in October 2006. Syco labelmate Leona Lewis' repackaged "Spirit" fell from No. 1 to No. 4, and an eponymous album by Epic act the Priests came in at No. 5.
