The Scottish star's second LP 'The Gift' sold 3.7million copies overseas.

In 2009, Boyle also topped the list with 'I Dreamed A Dream', which sold six million copies in the wake of her appearance on Britain's Got Talent.

Sade's 'Solider Of Love' was second, selling 2.3million copies, with Mumford and Sons' 'Sigh No More' shifting 1.3million, according to Music Week.
