Elton celebrates 'extraordinary' 10th number one album

Sir Elton John says he is "blown away" after scoring the 10th UK number one album of his career.

Who Believes In Angels?, a collaboration with US country star Brandi Carlile, has topped the charts 52 years after the star's first number one.

Sir Elton told the BBC that it seems quite extraordinary that his career has gone on so long.

He says it always feels good to top a chart, no matter where it is, and with this album, he is especially thrilled because he thinks it is the finest album he has done for a long time.

Written and recorded over three weeks in late 2023, Who Believes In Angels? has received rave reviews from critics, who have called it "a gutsy, flamboyant tearjerker" and a "late-career high".
