The UK Albums Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling albums of the week in the United Kingdom.[1][2][3] Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical albums and digital downloads. This list shows albums that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Albums Chart during 2005, as well as albums which peaked in 2004 and 2006 but were in the top 10 in 2005. The entry date is when the album appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).
One-hundred and twenty-nine albums were in the top ten this year. Nineteen albums from 2004 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson, Employment by Kaiser Chiefs, In Between Dreams by Jack Johnson, PCD by The Pussycat Dolls and Stars of CCTV by Hard-Fi were all released in 2005 but did not reach their peak until 2006. Hot Fuss by The Killers and Love Songs: A Compilation… Old and New by Phil Collins were the albums from 2004 to reach their peak in 2005. Eight artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2005. Akon, James Blunt, Kaiser Chiefs, Kelly Clarkson and The Pussycat Dolls were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 album in 2005.
The 2004 Christmas number-one album, Greatest Hits by Robbie Williams, remained at the top spot for the first week of 2005. American Idiot by Green Day returned for a second week as a chart topper after scaling the chart in October 2004, followed by the self titled album by Scissor Sisters which spent its third of four separate weeks as a chart topper. The first new number-one album of the year was Hot Fuss by The Killers. Overall, thirty-three different albums peaked at number-one in 2005, with Robbie Williams (2) having the most albums hit that position.
