Soundtracks for Sing and Moana also move up the chart.

Jumping up five spots, the soundtrack to the DreamWorks’ animated film Trolls claims the #1 on this week’s ARIA Albums Chart. The album hits the top spot in its seventh week in the top 50 and includes the Justin Timberlake single ‘Can't Stop The Feeling!’ (#3 May ’16).

In the same week Adele’s 25 claims #1 on the ARIA End Of Year Albums Chart for the second consecutive year, it moves back up one spot on the weekly chart.

After debuting at #21 last week, the Sing soundtrack hits the top five for the first time this week at #3.

The Moana soundtrack also moves into the top five in its second week in the chart, climbing from last week’s debut spot of #25 to #4.

After returning to the top 50 last week, George Michael’s Ladies & Gentlemen... The Best Of... this week moves back into the top ten for the first time since August 1999. Two other titles by George Michael sit in this week’s top 50: Twenty Five (#13) and Faith (#36).

This week’s chart includes moves for the likes of The Weeknd’s Starboy (up three to #10), Little Mix’s Glory Days (up five to #14), Shawn Mendes’ Illuminate (up ten to #24), Beyoncé’s Lemonade (up 22 to #25) and Childish Gambino’s "Awaken, My Love!" (up 12 to #34).
