"Beautiful Things" climbs to #1. How long it takes up residence there obviously depends on the competition willing to unseat it. Beyonce's timing has been pretty bad and doesn't look like contending anymore. Djo climbs into the top 10 for the first time with a bit of momentum still on his side. The big news of, actually two weeks ago was Fred again.. announcing a run of very soon Australian shows (well, just Melbourne & Sydney). He's actually already done the Melbourne shows, but in any case, all of his stuff is flying up, most notably "leavemealone" which scores a massive new peak and is his highest charting single ever now. Michael Marcagi & CYRIL also take big climbs into the top 20, I can't actually figure out how the latter is quite so high even though his sales are quite good. Also Muni Long's team has worked out the lifehack for the New Music chart by crediting the Lil Jon version, since the original is too old to be included.

After nearly 5 years, "Lover" finally scores a second week at #1. Of her #1 albums, it was one of only a few that hadn't stayed multiple weeks, and gives us a whole new permutation of her holding the top 5. With Ariana Grande & The Weeknd (thankfully not together) this reign of tomfoolery will very much be over next week. We've got a real new music problem on the album chart this year too. "american dream" and "Vultures 1" are the only albums this year to last more than a single week in the top 50. We've got three more for the pile of one weekers here, and as a nice treat they're all Australian. As a less nice treat, they're all down on previous peaks, one has to wonder if that general influx in new streamers this year is gonna make a serious roadblock in the charts to come. Anyhow, congrats to Mildlife, Donny Benét & San Cisco for getting to the top 50, because it ain't easy anymore.

This post is how I find out there is a Lil Jon remix of 'Made For Me' - definitely on brand for the era it's obviously calling back to aesthetically.

"Beautiful Things" is #1 for a second week. It does not look to be under immediate threat although we must always consider the volatility/tendency to spike of new arrivals. With that in mind, Ariana Grande scores a second #2 debut of the year. She briefly found herself atop the Spotify chart but things have calmed down a little since then. Djo also continues to vault with "End Of Beginning" and should close the gap a little even if he can't keep that momentum up in the week following me hitting the Add Reply button. Ariana Grande releasing a new album is a prompt for everyone else to take the week off so there's not much else to say, with the exception of a new arrival for Bryson Tiller. This is actually his first ever lead artist entry, he's only made the top 50 before with "Wild Thoughts".

A rare W for the Australian music scene in 2020 was managing to get to #1 ahead of tough competition, namely Ariana Grande's "Positions" album. It spent its first two weeks at #2 behind Midnight Oil & Kylie Minogue and never got there in the end. Ariana Grande reverses fortunes to go back to #1 with her newest album, which gives her 5 #1 albums in total. In that regard you could take this week as an Australian music L but actually I think it's quite impressive that some 2 decades after first appearing on Australian Idol, Ricki-Lee scores her highest ever album chart position. Of course maybe at this point she's more recognised as a media personality but in any case she released her first new album in a decade and hits #3 with it. Speaking of new points, Australian music culture war focal point Sticky Fingers take their first album to its highest ever position thanks to an anniversary vinyl. Kylie Minogue's anniversary vinyl looks to have just missed the top 50. We've also got Judas Priest returning to the chart for the first time in 6 years, where the top 10 still eludes them but they're quite consistently making the top 20, even on what could still be considered a tough week.

"Beautiful Things" is #1 for a 3rd week. The lead is solidified so I don't expect anything to change next week. In what is a relatively quiet week, we've got a new bolting in for Dasha, which ARIA have curiously allowed on the New Music chart despite being a few weeks over for that, maybe they're using the album release date. Of course it's far from the biggest muck up that we've got this week, as you'll notice a big surge for "the boy is mine". I'll have to forgive for not paying close enough attention to the Ariana Grande debuts last week to notice myself, but suffice to say, it should never have been as low as #48 then. It dropped from #22 to #29 on this week's Spotify chart if you want a decent estimate on where it should have been, but what a bizarre thing to not only happen but actually be corrected. We've also got a return for Travis Scott, and a sneak-in for V who is buoyed by all the sales of the instrumental & sped-up versions and such to get his first ever solo entry.

Bubbling Under we can shine a light on another error, where it seems like the second week reaction strikes again. This time it's for 4batz who charts a week late compared to everywhere else, and at a considerable distance away from the top 50 for something that went #15->#24 in New Zealand this week. So not only did ARIA not count it last week but if the typo on the chart is anything to go by, it's very possible that they didn't even combine the two versions.

Ariana Grande scores a second week at #1. She'll probably come crashing down to the Taylor Swift zone next week which means someone else will be #1 then. Maybe Future & Metro. Leading the new arrivals is a second solo album for Peter Garrett, who you either know from Midnight Oil or Kevin Rudd's Labor ministry back in the day. His first solo album debuted at #3 behind Good Charlotte, this one can't quite match its second week position at #17. But in any case, that's nothing compared to the drop off for Justin Timberlake who arrives well short of any of his previous albums, and his last album hit #2. Kacey Musgraves also made the top 10 with her last album but instead retreats to a more typical debut position for herself. On the optimistic side, Lainey Wilson is charting for the first time ever with her new album.

Don't let the date fool you, this is the real chart, and "Beautiful Things" is #1 for a 4th week. It's still miles ahead of the competition and begs the question for if it could well be the biggest hit of the year. Anyway we do have two top 10 debuts this week, firstly "Like That", which gives Future his 3rd top 10 hit, just 1 spot high of his career high of #7 he got with "Way 2 Sexy". Actually #7 is as high as Metro Boomin has ever gotten too, but that was with "Creepin'", and yes that includes all of his production work. Kendrick Lamar isn't credited but he's been at #1 before. Next up is Hozier scoring his second ever top 10 hit, and first charting hit since "Someone New" which had a quite respectable chart run in 2015. Michael Marcagi is stuck at #12 and could overtake Jack Harlow while being overtaken by Artemas next week, so we can only hope he does the 12 12 12 12 chart standing which is always fun. The best instance of this I believe is when "Little Lion Man" held at its #16 peak in its 16th week in early 2010 and I've always been on the lookout for new instances. Maybe if you only include top 50 weeks then there's still hope for "No Role Modelz" to pull off a miracle. But speaking of Artemas, his song that sounds like a nightcore remix of itself is fresh in at #25 with a bullet in the back pocket. Ahead of that with less of a segue is Olivia Rodrigo which has a moderately interesting detail of having been available on vinyl releases months ago, so it doesn't appear on the New Music chart, and also appears with a last week position on the ARIA website of #2110. I am very curious if that's a sign that there were 2109 songs that registered sales last week or if ARIA got *some* late Thursday data in the mix. That's a number to look out for I suppose!

Despite the Olivia omission, the Bubbling Under chart is fairly lean this week. It might grow next week as several songs drop out and "leavemealone" ousts itself as the penultimate 2023 song on the list (YG Marley released *right* at the end of December).

Earlier in Ariana Grande's career, her albums tended to drop off quite a bit after debut week. "My Everything" dropped to #8 in its second week for instance. "thank u, next" managed 5 weeks at #1 though and now "Eternal Sunshine" is sitting strong after 3 weeks. It'll certainly be ousted next week by Beyonce. Meanwhile Metro Boomin has a second #2 album (following the second Spider-Verse soundtrack). Future actually has had a #1 album though. Surprisingly The Veronicas have never had a #1 album (they've had 2 #1 singles though), and this week they pick up 6 for 6 on top 10 albums, and this one's landing in the middle of the #5 & #7 peaks their two 2021 albums scored. It's their first album not released on a major label. You know it's a slow week when Pitbull's Greatest Hits can find room in the top 50 though.

"Beautiful Things" is #1 for a 5th week. It sure is a good thing that I didn't do this post yesterday otherwise I might have said something like 'well, there's no sign of that ending', but the Spotify shenanigans continue and now Hozier is #1 there. Probably not soon enough to make a change for next week, but that's one to keep an eye on unless it's involving similar chicanery. Beyonce has a couple of debuts this week in addition to "TEXAS HOLD 'EM" returning to its prior peak of #2, while K-Pop group ILLIT have their first ever entry too. There's some slight dubiousness to the top 50 as it's possible that Richy Mitch and Lord Huron might be on the cusp of the top 50 but are missing from the report. Since there aren't as many Beyonce songs as there were Ariana Grande songs falling out, we've got another one of those classic weeks where all the old songs mostly climb back up to the expense of newer hits. It's unclear to me which of those columns I should put Morgan Wallen's newly peaking "Thinkin' Bout Me" under. He sure is lucky there isn't a recurrency rule.

Though Beyonce has been chronically unable to score a proper #1 single since "Irreplaceable", she's done just fine on the album chart of late. She's now got 4 #1s to her name starting with her self-titled album in 2013. The only other debut we've got this week is a return for Pierce Brothers. I say it's a return because their last album didn't actually chart for reasons I can't ascertain, so this is their first chart appearance since 2018. To prevent homesickness, the Australian public has made sure that 6 of the albums that were charting that week are still there this week.

"Beautiful Things" is #1 for a 6th week. I'm fairly certain it won't be next week. Despite it being a solid decade since they last hit #2 on the singles chart, and despite their new album not even cracking the top 50 this week, incredibly a new unremarkable album track by The Black Keys has climbed to #2. In all seriousness, this is Hozier's second #2 hit for now as you might have guessed. 'But why would I know where "Take Me To Church" peaked in Australia?' I'll tell you why, because it's pretty much the only song I can think of that peaked at #2 in pretty much every English speaking country, often at different time frames behind different songs, very strange coincidence. We've got 3 new peaks in the top 4 clearly just waiting for Benson Boone to have his moment. Despite the rising benchmark we've been seeing this year, there are actually quite a lot of the top 50 entries this week. Stomp & holler fanfare means that leading the pack is Avalanche City soundalike (there's something closer I can't think of though) Mark Ambor getting his first chart entry. Possibly benefitting from 'I can't remember which song is which they both have similar titles' (okay that's probably just me), Artemas gets a second entry in quick fashion. J. Cole debuts with a song that I wasn't prompt enough to actually listen to while it was still on Spotify, to be honest I respect someone willing to admit they lost. The last two debuts are mildly funny just because the chart makes them look fresher than they actually are. Despite very much hanging around since last year, Luke Combs & Jungle climb into the top 50 this week. Jungle have obviously been popular in Australia for a decade, but this is their first foray into the singles chart, 3 months after "Back On 74" placed at #17 in triple j's Hottest 100.

Beyonce gets a second week at #1. This is a typical thing for her as of her 4 #1 albums, only "Lemonade" spent a single week at #1, and that's because "Views" came out one week later. She's still running on just digital stats so the physical release could help her in the future (this week I think?). I don't know if anything out this week can contest because we have so little data to go on and Australia can often just totally ignore big UK debuts even if they are popular artists here. I mean I didn't have Vampire Weekend missing the top 50 on my bingo card but hey, maybe a lot of people spent the first half of 2019 being tormented by "Harmony Hall" overplay and want nothing to do with them now? Speaking of overplay, we've got two big 2004 albums returning this week, from Missy Higgins and Shannon Noll. If you're thinking 'doesn't that sound familiar?', maybe you know "Scar", it was used in the Axis of Awesome's 4 Chord Song video which I understand is popular enough that a lot of people have unwittingly heard a Missy Higgins melody. If you're Shannon Noll, you're probably asking 'what about me?' because he did that a lot in 2004 with his cover of Moving Pictures' "What About Me" being the biggest hit of the year and the reason "Milkshake" by Kelis missed the top spot. He was the runner up in Australian Idol's first season and for a good while looked to be having a better career than Guy Sebastian until 2008 roared in, completely knocked over the scales and they've been collecting dust on the floor ever since. Anyway there are also Americans here. J. Cole gets to #2 which feels very lucky since his streaming performance was fairly lacking compared to usual. Conan Gray gets a second top 10 album. Khruangbin are also back and getting to remind me of a silly joke we made in high school about the Quang Binh province of Vietnam (you had to be there I think). Actually their name is Thai but it sounds pretty similar. Anyway they got to #4 back in 2020, this time they settle for #14. Benson Boone manages a top 20 debut which we shall wait to see how much of it is from habitual streams of the singles (they're all on there), so it's the classic case where the worse it does next week, the more popular he'll look. Also down on a top 10 debut from 2020 is Alpha Wolf. A surprising entry for me is from Brian Cadd, who for context is a pretty significant figure in Australian music, whose own solo career is largely confined to the '70s. He's kept making music but this is his first chart position in about 50 years. Lower down, Doja Cat has evidently not been able to utilise streaming points with only two significant hits on her newest album, but the re-package this week brings it back. Also Bryson Tiller is not falling from a top 10 position because he's only ever gotten to #11 (and #12), but he sneaks in another album.
