[H-I-M]

Carrie Underwood** holds at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart a second week with "Blown Away," selling another 120,000 copies (down 55% according to Nielsen SoundScan). It's Underwood's third No. 1 album, but first to spend more than a week at the top.

With the Mother's Day holiday falling on the final day of the tracking week (May 13) reflected in the new chart, it's not surprising to see Adele**'s mom-friendly "21" see a big gain in sales. The album rises 4-2 this week on the Billboard 200 with 101,000 sold -- up 31%.

Lionel Richie**'s "Tuskegee" also sees a mother-fueled jump, climbing 6-3 with 71,000 (up 11%). The "Now 42" compilation falls 3-4 (65,000; down 31%) while Norah Jones**' "Little Broken Hearts" slips 2-5 (60,000; down 46%).

The chart's highest debut comes from rock band Silversun Pickups**, which sees its "Neck of the Woods" drive in at No. 6 with 41,000. It's the highest charting set for the act, but not its best sales week: 2009's "Swoon" bowed at No. 7 with a career-high 43,000.

One Direction**'s "Up All Night" spends its ninth straight week in the top 10, as it rises one slot to No. 7 with 40,000 (down 11%). Right behind the U.K. boy band is Jack White**'s "Blunderbuss," moving 7-8 with 34,000 (down 38%).

Rounding out the top 10 are Tank**'s new "This Is How I Feel," debuting at No. 9 (33,000), and Luke Bryan**'s "Tailgates & Tanlines" stepping 13-10 (26,000; down 1%). Tank's latest gives him his fifth top 40 set and third to reach the top 10. His last release, 2010's "Now Or Never," debuted and peaked at No. 35 with 44,000 that December.

Good, Adele still over 100K according to BB numbers and Norah drop was smaller than in HDD numbers.
Nice numbers for Carrie, Lionel and One Direction.

Last week, 21 passed "nevermind", this week it passed garth brooks "no fences" and kid rock's "devil without a cause" in total sales
