The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has revealed the top-selling albums in the world for 2022.

Taiwanese popstar Jay Chou's Greatest Works of Art is the best-selling album in the world in 2022. His first full-length album in six years, the record is 2022's top-selling album across all formats and this year’s Global Album Sales Chart number 1 album.

Coming in second place are global superstars BTS. The record-breaking group's anthology album Proof is this year's runner-up and features their greatest hits, unreleased demos and versions, plus brand new songs –  'Yet To Come (The Most Beautiful Moment),' 'Run BTS,' and 'For Youth'.

Pop icon Taylor Swift lands in third with her tenth studio album, Midnights. The feat makes the American popstar the only Western act in the Top 10.

More K-pop acts make up the Top 10. Stray Kids have two albums on the list – with MAXIDENT clinching fourth place and ODDINARY in eighth. SEVENTEEN also land two releases in the Top 10 with Face The Sun in fifth and its repackaged version, World, in ninth. 

BLACKPINK are the only girl group on the list with their sophomore album BORN PINK taking seventh place.
