Coldplay's "Viva la Vida" — which crowned the chart the last two weeks — drops to No. 2, with 149,000. The Jonas Brothers-led soundtrack to Disney's "Camp Rock" stays at No. 3 for a third week with 116,000. G-Unit's second set, "T.O.S. (Terminate on Sight)" debuts at No. 4 with 102,000.

John Mayer's "Where the Light Is: John Mayer Live in Los Angeles" debuts at No. 5 with 75,000. Hits compilation "Now 28" holds tight at No. 6 with 59,000. Kid Rock's "Rock N Roll Jesus" moves from 12 to 7 with 45,000. Usher's "Here I Stand" descends from 7 to 8. Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad" climbs from 10 to 9. That flip-flops with Disturbed's "Indestructible."
