Boyle's upcoming CD, "I Dreamed a Dream," has claimed the top spot on Amazon.com's list of bestselling CDs, beating out Whitney Houston's "I Look to You" and a remastered release of the Beatles' "Abbey Road."

Boyle's album, which lists for US$9.99, is set for release Nov. 24 on the Web site.

Boyle sang "I Dreamed a Dream," from the musical "Les Miserables," on the talent show that made her famous. A clip of her performance is one of the most watched videos on YouTube.
