Elton John set for ninth UK Number 1 album with Diamonds

Elton John is on track to achieve his ninth UK Number 1 album with “Diamonds,” his greatest hits compilation. Originally released in 2017, “Diamonds” has been a mainstay on the UK charts, and it’s climbing back to the top spot due to the release of a super deluxe edition that includes new features like a Blu-ray and a limited edition vinyl with a diamond-effect. This collection spans Elton John’s career, highlighting some of his biggest hits from various decades.

The enduring popularity of “Diamonds” is evidenced by its long-term presence on the charts, having spent over 325 weeks in the UK Top 40. This latest surge in popularity can be attributed to the special editions and continued fan interest in Elton John’s music, solidifying “Diamonds” as one of the most successful compilations in recent times. The album includes a range of hits that define John’s extensive career, contributing to its ongoing appeal and sales.
