He was displaced by the self-titled debut album by Taylor Swift, which finally reached the top spot after originally being released in 2006. Eagles then spent one week at the chart peak with Long Road Out of Eden , the 41st and final week of its tenure at number one. Swift returned for a further three weeks at the top spot before replacing herself with her sophomore album Fearless , which went on to remain there for 33 consecutive weeks.
