A definitive look back at the 2004 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.

Keane's debut Hopes and Fears led 2004, fronting a year that crowned a new wave of melodic British acts. Snow Patrol's Final Straw, Franz Ferdinand's self-titled and The Streets' narrative A Grand Don't Come For Free showed the guitar scene's range, while Maroon 5's Songs About Jane and Norah Jones's Feels Like Home carried the soft-pop side. The crossover star is Il Divo, the operatic-pop quartet's debut landing high among rock and pop. Joss Stone's The Soul Sessions and Scissor Sisters' debut added retro-soul and glam flair. With Robbie Williams' Greatest Hits and Katie Melua's Call Off the Search also charting, 2004 was a year of polished, radio-ready debuts.
