Leon tops the Irish chart

X-Factor 2007 winner Leon Jackson has topped the Irish singles chart with When You Believe.

The 18-year-old Scot steals the spot from X-Factor 2006 winner Leona Lewis with her second single Bleeding Love. The Pogues now sit at number three.

Jackson's debut single, a cover of the Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey duet When You Believe went on sale as a download from midnight on Sunday 16 December 2007 and as a CD on Wednesday 19 December 2007.

Dropping two places to number four and number five are Shayne Ward's Breathless and Timbaland's Apologise.

Michael Bublé's Call Me Irresponsible has climbed four places this week to reach the top of the album chart, followed by Shayne Ward's Breathless at number two and Leona's Spirit at number three.
