All this month on the MTV music channels we're celebrating the best in British music, and we've kicked things off with a list of the Best Selling Brits Of The Decade (so far)...and you might be surprised at the results...

With figures compiled by our pals at the Official Charts Company, they've counted sales from 2010-2015 and declared, not so surprisingly, Adele's 'Someone Like You' the No.1 best-selling British record of the decade!

At No.2, only being released at the very end of 2014 is Mark Ronson's monster 'Uptown Funk' Ft. Bruno Mars, and in at No.3 is James Arthur's 'Impossible'.

Clean Bandit's 'Rather Be' Ft. Jess Glynne comes in at No.4 while Jessie J's 'Price Tag' Ft. B.o.B is the fifth biggest-selling Brit tune!

Official Best Selling Brits Of The Decade Top 5:

1. Adele - 'Someone Like You'
2. Mark Ronson Ft. Bruno Mars - 'Uptown Funk'
3. James Arthur - 'Impossible'
4. Clean Bandit Ft. Jess Glynne - 'Rather Be'
5. Jessie J Ft. B.o.B - 'Price Tag'
