Bob Dylan has scored his eighth UK No.1 album this week, while Ellie Goulding's 'Love Me Like You Do' has become the fastest-selling single of the year.

Goulding's contribution to the much-anticipated/dreaded Fifty Shades Of Grey film has toppled Mark Ronson's 'Uptown Funk' from the top spot, ending its seven-week reign.

The song, which is Goulding's second No.1 after 2013's 'Burn', outsold 'Uptown Funk' by over 87,000 copies, having sold a total of 172,000 copies and been streamed 1.46 million times this week.

Elsewhere in the singles chart, Hozier is at No.3 with 'Take Me To Church', Rihanna's collaboration with Kanye West and Paul McCartney 'FourFive Seconds' is at No.4 and Meghan Trainor comes in at No.5 at 'Lips Are Movin'.

Meanwhile, Bob Dylan's 36th studio album, Shadows In The Night, is at No.1 in the albums chart, marking his eighth UK No.1 album. The LP features covers of traditional pop standards made famous by Frank Sinatra, including 'I'm A Fool To Want You', 'The Night We Called It A Day' and 'Autumn Leaves.'

He beats Ed Sheeran who comes in at No.2 with X, while Meghan Trainor is at No.3 with Title, Sam Smith's unstoppable In The Lonely Hour is fourth and Hozier completes the top five with his self-titled debut.
