Billboard Charts

Last week, Taylor Swift's album, Fearless, ruled the charts. This week, as expected, U2 came in and knocked her off the horizon with their album, No Line On the Horizon. The rest of the Billboard 200 Charts was pretty much unchanged, with the Jonas Brothers dropping out of the Top 10, Neko Case entering the charts at #3, and people going GaGa over Lady GaGa, who jumped five spots to #4. Here's a breakdown of this past week's top albums!
