Ed Sheeran's album titled X has topped the 2014 list of top albums after it sold more than 367,000 copies, it has been revealed.
The 23-year-old singer's album has been the longest running number one album of 2014, the BBC reported.
Sheeran's album, which has also topped the US chart, meant that Morrissey was at number two with his 10th solo album World Peace Is None of Your Business.
The previous record-holder, Paolo Nutini, had three weeks leading the charts in April with his album Caustic Love.
Manchester boy band Rixton are currently holding the number one position on the singles chart with their first release, 'Me and My Broken Heart', knocking Will.i.am's 'It's My Birthday' FT Cody Wise off the top spot.
