Leona has set a UK record for the fastest-selling debut album.
Spirit went straight in at number one, while the 22-year-old X-Factor winner’s song Bleeding Love also remained at the top of the singles chart for the fourth week running.
Leona’s album saw off stiff competition from the Spice Girls’ Greatest Hits album, which went in at number two.
The previous fastest-selling debut album was the Arctic Monkeys’ Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not in January 2006, which managed 363,735 copies in its first week. This week Spirit sold a massive 375,872 copies.
A spokesman for Leona said: “On it’s first day of sales alone Spirit sold over 130,000 copies, which was outselling the rest of the top 10 put together.
“On average it worked out that Leona was selling an amazing 200 albums per minute.”

spirit is a wicked album and leona is just fab, YES FAB!!! i love whatever it takes and yesterday!!! and i think i’ve listening to bleeding love like a million times and listened to the cd to its max!!! on my ipod i just listen to leona she is superb!!!
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO LEONA!!!!!!!!! CAN’T WAIT FOR IT TO BE RELEASED IN THE U.S.!!!!! going to be so great! and im sure its going to sell loads!
Would just like to say I have reached the ripe old age of 50 and it is the best (quality) album I have heard in the last 15-20 years – and even my daughter agrees !!
Any one of the songs could be released as a single and there are very few albums you could say that about – I am sure she will have massive success in America – best thing to come out of X-Factor since the series started -I would say she is even better than Whitney or Mariah !!
Wow, It’s just brilliant, what an albumn. What an amazing voice, your parents must be so proud of you. Go Girl, enjoy every minute You deserve the success. Goodluck in America honey. Just reading the comment from the Guy who is 50 I am 46 and my daughter agrees with your comments too! What a pleasure it is to listen to your music Leona, I bet you will have a cracking christmas this year who needs it giftwrapped !
Leona is an incredible singer and a lovely person, a rare combination!
