U2’s latest album ‘Songs Of Surrender’ is currently selling more copies than the rest of the Top Five in the charts combined – and fast on the way to becoming the band’s 11th Number One album.Released last Friday, the album saw the Irish rock veterans return with a series of re-recorded and re-interpreted songs from throughout their 40-year career, including fan favourites, ‘I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For’ and ‘With Or Without You’.Sharing its name with Bono’s 2022 memoir, Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story, the album is already performing extremely well on the charts and, as of yesterday, outselling the rest of the Top Five combined, according to The Official Charts Company.If it were to peak at the top position, it would mark the band’s 11th number one album, and the first to reach the summit following their 2009 LP, ‘No Line On the Horizon’.

Previously, U2 have scored consecutive Top 10 entries over the past decade, with 2014’s ‘Songs Of Innocence’ and 2017’s ‘Songs of Experience’ peaking at Number Six and Number Five respectively.Additionally, their greatest hits album, ‘U218 Singles’, has also resurfaced and is on its way to reaching the Top 40 for the second time.
