BuzzJack Music Forum _ International Charts _ 2015 Australian Chart Thread - Year End Charts

Posted by: Dircadirca 4th January 2015, 04:37 AM

Oops got a bit behind. I can't be bothered posting all the old charts, but I'll just note that we had 2 more weeks of "Thinking Out Loud", 3 weeks of "Blank Space", and now "Uptown Funk" is up to 4 weeks at #1. Also is worth noting that about 2 months ago, streaming was finally added to the chart at what appears to be a 1:150 ratio, so it hasn't taken as much of an effect as it does in the UK (seems it can push a song from about #42 to #48 at the most extreme currently).

But here's the 05/01/2015 chart

It does but you can hardly notice it, and it's mostly only in extreme cases such as Taylor Swift not having her music on Spotify. Even with that though, "Shake It Off" has only been bumped down 1 spot by streaming a few times. This week in the top 10, "Thinking Out Loud" had the highest ratio of streaming points to sales, but streams still only made up 8% of its chart sales this week. Of course, this could get bigger as we enter the slow sales period at the start of the year.

Poor Sammi. Looks like this will be her first single where she won't get certified.

Such a shame too as it was much better than Up and Soldier.

I'm not getting the worldwide love for the track at all.

As a big fan, I'd say it's been helped by a few things. One that it came out in January where sales are low (and in Australia, almost right on the sales tracking week, so it got a full week at the best of its sales), and that there are hardly any major releases out (iTunes promoted the single pretty heavily in the past week). And adding to that, it's had a lot of press due to all the confused parties of people misreading sarcastic tweets and reporting that Kanye fans don't know who Paul McCartney is (which in itself has resulted in articles about journalists who can't identify obvious satire...unless they're just pandering to clickbait on purpose, confusing spiral!

). I personally really like it and think it has a lovely message, but it'll be lucky to even have another week in the top 40 anyway

I've noticed that Omi track appearing in a few European Top 10s.

Guess it will be making its way to the UK and US soon.

Chet Faker's original peak on the single's chart was #31. "1989" is also having an impressive run in the top 2: 1-1-2-2-1-2-2-1-2-1-1-2-1-1. And Omi is impressively selling over 35,000 a week, considering it's the start of the year, and the track itself still doesn't feel like it's making *that* big of an impact.

Has the Giorgio/Kylie track been released in Australia?

Posted by: Dircadirca 2nd February 2015, 03:49 AM

Yep, it got to about #50 on iTunes, and currently is #139.

Daniel Johns has the biggest drop due to streaming to date I know of in the top 50, #40 digitally to #50 on the chart. Purely because of being promoted on the iTunes frontpage, "Uptown Funk" has a chance of returning to #1 next week

Posted by: ► ▲ N 7th February 2015, 04:03 PM

Is Chet Faker so high because it's #1 in the triple j countdown of 2014 then? It's a great song so not complaining, nice discovery~

Omi slaying Australia too really want it to smash hard in the UK, I'm sure it will but it'll be a while with all its release date pushbacks

Posted by: Dircadirca 8th February 2015, 07:36 AM

Yeah, though the triple j countdown has been around for over 20 years, since the digital (and recently streaming) market boom, it's been making big waves on the ARIA Chart. Other noteworthy jumps in the past:

06 (35) Vance Joy - Riptide (original peak #7)
10 (28) Lorde - The Love Club EP
18 (31) Flume & Chet Faker - Drop The Game (original peak #21)

25 (67) Flume - Holdin On (original peak #49)
41 (RE) alt-J - Breezeblocks (original peak #72)

Chet Faker was very nearly #4 last week too, only really missing out because the countdown was on Monday this year so only 4 days of affected sales.

Stats regarding FourFiveSeconds at #1:

9th #1 for Rihanna
2nd #1 for Kanye
2nd #1 for Paul (+27 with The Beatles & Wings)
Paul McCartney breaks Elvis's record for longest gap between first and last #1s (just counting his solo ones), 43 years & 8 months apart
Paul is also now by a wide margin, the oldest person to achieve a #1 hit
"FourFiveSeconds" is technically the longest word to ever be in a #1 hit
Rihanna is now tied up with Pharrell for most weeks spent at #1 this decade, 21 weeks each.

Also following up what I said last week, Redfoo was #37 on the digital chart and bumped to #48 on the actual chart, which is a new record.

Omi and Ellie could both potentially get #1 next week.

Something worth mentioning for last week is that Ellie actually got to #1 thanks to streams, which is naturally the first time that streaming has changed the #1 single. It could have also meant gifting #1 to a song that never was the #1 seller, but this week Ellie is the #1 seller as well.

Edit to add: Ellie was #1 digitally by just 40 copies this week! Streaming gives her a 2,500 lead though.

Madonna scores her 11th #1 album which ties her with U2, only behind The Beatles who have 14 #1 albums. Also to note on the other end of the chart, The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac has for a long time been the longest running album ever. This week it cracks 7 years in the chart, though it's never made the top 10. With or without streaming, I believe Ellie's sales this week are the lowest for a #1 single in over 4 years.

Continuing on from last week, LunchMoney Lewis's sales this week are even lower than Ellie's were last week, though they should improve next week. With just 4 days on sale, Kendrick's excellent new album lands a milestone as the first digital only #1 album. The high number of debuts does not help Madonna this week, who has the biggest fall from #1 since MKTO (who for some reason have a #1 album here) went #1->#19 early last year.

Can someone explain the LunchMoney Lewis song to me? Is he a real artist or a parody? Even Wikipedia doesn't have a page for him though I've since learned he was one of the writer's of Fifth Harmony's Bo$$!

Posted by: Liаm 22nd March 2015, 05:25 PM

Delta only making #46 Not her best single but judging from Love Thy Will Be Done and this she's losing her ability to just easily get instant hits off of her name. Hopefully a performance on The Voice can get her a hit from this era.

QUOTE(Rob @ Mar 23 2015, 01:18 AM)

He also had a guest verse on Nicki Minaj's latest album (though you'd hardly recognise him from "Bills"). To my knowledge he's had a 'legit' career up to now but "Bills" is certainly just a novelty song.

Country musician Lee Kernaghan has had 8 top 10 albums in his 20+ year career but now gets his first EVER #1 with some thanks to TV promo. A few months ago, Diplo's only top 20 hit in any form was through Beyonce sampling "Pon De Floor" in "Run The World (Girls)". With "Lean On", "Elastic Heart" and now "Where Are U Now", he currently has 3 in the top 20 at once In fact, "Lean On" is looking the best chance for #1 next week although it may be very close with "Do You Remember". Ed Sheeran's current tour and an empty release week means "x" is a good chance for a 7th week at #1.

Prior to "Lean On", Major Lazer had top 40 hits with "Get Free", "Bubble Butt" & "Aerosol Can", but none of them went any higher than #37. Also to note, "Where Are U Now" is Skrillex & Justin Bieber's first top 10 hit since "Bangarang" & "Beauty and a Beat" respectively. It has a chance to be highest ever charter for both of them

Hopefully Major Lazer and Galantis doing well/climbing means they can do well WW, especially the UK

Freedom from Stay With Me this week

Posted by: Dobbo 12th April 2015, 12:56 PM

The Australian Chart is definitely one of my favourites and arguably the most consistently up-to-date chart in the world. All the big worldwide smashes seem to perform here first and when they actually should, after premiering not after a ridiculous release date.

I wish other charts would take note & follow suit.

"Where Are U Now" becomes Skrillex's outright highest charter ("Bangarang" was of course a quadruple platinum #4 smash, never forget) and it ties "Baby" as Justin Bieber's highest ever. Also of note is that "Riptide" is #87 this week and thus becomes the first ever song to have an unbroken chart run of 2 years. If it lasts one more week (it's not easy to tell yet) it will match "Poker Face"'s 105 week run as the longest running single ever.

Posted by: Cody Slayberry 19th April 2015, 06:56 AM

If "Riptide" does that, Australia will have literally gone down the drain.

Posted by: buzz_person 19th April 2015, 07:21 AM

I'm not that surprised by the longevity of Riptide, to be honest. That song has been played many times on the radio during the song's chart peak and it's also the official song for Medibank (a health insurance company) commercials, which no doubt helped prolong the chart run.

Posted by: Dircadirca 25th April 2015, 03:55 PM

^ Yeah true, although it is without that, a song that's been in the streaming top 50 for a good 2 years running, hardly anything has even managed half that. Anyway it's back up 9 places to #78 this week

To note, about a week ago there was a 60 Minutes story about Sam Smith as he is touring here now and it sent all his stuff flying back up the chart. Notably his album which finally reaches #1, knocking off Lee Kernaghan despite the fact I am posting this on ANZAC Day. It's quite possible he'll return to #1 next week. Paloma's chart success with Only Love Can Hurt Like This started thanks to a TV promo, and thanks to the little imagination they seem to have, she's back thanks to another one.

High dosage of Australian entries this week which also has Redgum's 1983 #1 hit "I Was Only 19" back in the chart due to the 100th anniversary of ANZAC Day. Sam Smith had to cancel most of his tour this week so most of his stuff will be on the way down a little quicker than otherwise. On the other hand, Ed Sheeran just announced another one so most of his stuff is back up Surprisingly, "The Magic Whip" is Blur's highest charting album ever.

'Big Girls Cry' is gonna be very big! I find it really cool how much Australia have got on board with Sia (top 5 for 'Elastic Heart' surprised me) and I can see this lasting a long time.

False information from me a few weeks ago, this week sees "Riptide" breaking the longevity record as it sits at #85 on its 107th week in the chart. Grace narrowly misses the top spot and may struggle to get there as her iTunes lead is slipping at the moment. Iggy Azalea features on the only two songs to newly crack the top 50 this week, which means that she now has 10 top 50 hits to her name. Mumford & Sons get their 2nd #1 album which could easily be their 3rd, but someone made the foolish decision to release "Babel" in the same month that P!nk had a new album out

Where are Fifth Harmony this week? I was hoping they'd break the the Top 50...

Holding steady at #78. Doesn't seem likely to get much higher unless some unexpected promo steps in, though as of this week it's spent longer in the chart than Sledgehammer did.

Less than 300 sales separating the top 2 on both charts I believe, and this also means that Wiz Khalifa only held on thanks to streaming. Grace continues to climb in that regard though so it looks likely she'll be #1 next week.

A few things to note this week, we have our first Australian #1 single and our first Australian #1 album this week. In Grace's case though it was a very close margin, with Bad Blood actually being the highest seller of the week, but no streams to its name naturally. It has a huge lead on iTunes though so unless we all get extremely patriotic about Eurovision, it should hit #1 next week. Also amusingly we simultaneously see the return of Rod Stewart to the singles chart & Faith No More to the albums chart, both for the first time since 1998.

Posted by: buzz_person 24th May 2015, 10:47 AM

Bad Blood is way ahead of the number 2 single on iTunes right now. Guy is number 6 and Måns is number 25. Bad Blood has a good chance of hitting number 1, if it keeps selling at that pace on iTunes. The streaming ratio in Australia is larger than UK, isn't it (ie. 150:1)? I know NZ has a larger ratio to stream/sales (175:1).

Posted by: Dircadirca 24th May 2015, 11:00 AM

I've actually been having trouble pinning down the streaming ratio because it seems to change every month It's around 1:200 though. I do think Bad Blood will be #1 at this rate but weirder things have happened so can't count the chickens just yet

Eurovision is just now having its viewer friendly timeslot airing on TV now though, after that is when the songs usually hit their peak.

Naturally, Bad Blood climbs to #1 this week giving Taylor Swift her 4th #1 single, and 3rd from "1989". Macklemore & Ryan Lewis were the last to have 3 #1s from the same album back in 2012/2013. Five More Hours hits the top 10 giving Chris Brown his first top 10 hit since "Don't Wake Me Up" hit #2 in 2012. For some reason he hasn't really had a proper pop hit between. Despite hitting the chart with about 18 singles inbetween (I lost count trying to add it up ), none of them even cracked the top 25. Eurovision is the main talk of the week though, as Australia's involvement sees an increased interest in this year's proceedings. Though not matching up with Australia's televoting, 5 of the top 6 (sorry Italy) entrants crack the top 100, most notedly Australia's own entry at #12. The winning song Heroes is in at #19 and is the first winning Eurovision song in over 25 years to crack the top 20. On the album chart, Hillsong United get their 2nd #1 but also the 3rd #1 for Hillsong in general (as different conglomerates chart under different names). In doing so, they block Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns. All 5 of Silverchair's albums hit #1 from 1995-2007, so this is the first time he's missed the top spot.

A week of 2's. "Bad Blood" easily secures a 2nd week at #1. Jessie J gets her 2nd #2 hit (after "Price Tag"). Florence + The Machine get their 2nd #1 album. Jamie xx gets his 2nd #2 album (including The xx). Major Lazer get their 2nd #5 album. 2 noteworthy dropouts on the singles chart this week are "Happy" & "Riptide" after consecutively logging 77 & 110 weeks respectively. I suspect this was partly due to some missing streaming data this week, so they may well be back next week. "Everything Is 4" is perhaps Jason Derulo's first album to miss the top 10, although "Future History" didn't get there in its 1st week so it's not too certain to count him out yet. And feel sorry for the Pitch Perfect soundtrack, it's been #3 for 4 weeks in a row, behind 8 different albums

Anja scraping top 30 <3 Glad this is doing better than I'm So Excited. It's not doing amazingly by any means but still for a cover just on an advert it's a solid performance.

That top 2 is so perfect *.*

Posted by: JosephStyles 7th June 2015, 02:34 PM

Start Again top 10 I really hope this can crossover and be a huge hit worldwide, along with his previous single Hold Me Up. Conrad has all the makings of a star I think.

plenty of tracks in the charts for weeks and months that the UK can't buy. The UK record industry needs a massive kick up the a£$e the way they treat music fans here compared to the rest of the world!

Again, "Bad Blood" has no problem holding #1 but it will next week. "Start Again" has taken up the top spot on iTunes thanks to its prominent useage on Home & Away last Wednesday. "Bad Blood" is catching up but it'll depend on if that's just a weekend effect or not for what gets #1. Also oddly in the mix is "Fight Song" which plummets this week because it was made album only for 3 days last week. Despite seemingly peaking a few weeks ago, it's now a #1 contender. Spotify not sending all their data last week meant that streaming only included about half its full effect, this is why streaming giants like "Lean On" are back up this week.

On the album chart, Muse get their 3rd #1 after "Black Holes & Revelations" and "The Resistance". Just like Mumford & Sons, it's a return to the top spot after P!nk unsurprisingly blocked them last time. A severe lack of new releases next week makes it hard to predict what will be #1 next. I wouldn't be surprised if Ed Sheeran returned to #1 simply out of inertia, but with likely the lowest #1 sales ever. Otherwise it's nice to say that thanks to an iTunes discount, The Notorious B.I.G. has his first ever top 50 album in Australia this week.

(Note: there is some inconsistent reporting that may suggest the Savage Garden album is #15, shifting all those other albums down 1 place)

Australia gets its second #1 of 2015 that is almost entirely due to being played over and over on TV promos. Meghan Trainor has had 5 chart entries in the last 12 months and now all of them have gone top 10, and 4 of them top 5 Major Lazer get their 2nd top 10 with Powerful replacing Lean On this week, while a full week on sale this time helps Fight Song jump to a big new peak of #3. Florence + The Machine return to #1 purely out of lack of competition. We may well see a record low #1 sales in the coming weeks as there is very little in the way of major releases for a few weeks. Perth band Karnivool have re-released their catalogue on vinyl which sees all 3 of their albums in the top 50 this week.

Because we can't stop having mistakes, for some reason Golden Features had his EP and single sales not combined, so he should probably be around the top 40 but instead has two entries in the top 60. Otherwise chart saviour John Legend ends Conrad's reign of terror scoring his 2nd #1 after "All Of Me" 18 months ago. And of course it's Meghan Trainor's 2nd #1 after "All About That Bass". Possibly expect "Bang Bang" back in the top 50 next week as it was just performed on The Voice tonight. Meanwhile a quiet front on the album chart gets Ed Sheeran an 8th week at #1, and Hilary Duff her 2nd highest charting album to date, behind the #3 peak of "Most Wanted". A close re-entry for Madonna means that "Rebel Heart" has lasted longer than "MDNA" did in the top 50.

The errors never stop! It would perhaps seem that every label but Sony was on break as only 2 debuts are let onto the chart this week, with Years & Years, Tori Kelly & Meek Mill among others getting no share of the chart action (on singles anyway). Anyhow, Robin Schulz gets his 2nd highest ever single (and 4th top 10) with "Headlights" climbing to #6, and it may well climb even higher next week and outpeak "Waves". The return of The Voice Australia sees London Grammar return to both the single & albums chart, while Australia swaps its preference of the two big UK hits at the moment back to Tinie Tempah, who should next week score his first ever top 30 hit as a lead artist. To note on the album chart, John Farnham scores his 9th #1 album, and Olivia her 4th. A key point of interest from this is that John Farnham now has the outright 3rd most weeks of any artist at the top of the album chart, with only Dire Straits & The Beatles ahead of him.

John Farnham ! I thought he was a one hit wonder (well, he is in the UK), as if he has 9 Australian #1 albums I love 'You're The Voice' tho so GWAN John.

Posted by: Dircadirca 5th July 2015, 04:27 AM

But yeah, he's pretty much an Australian icon thanks to that song. The album that it's from is (I think) the highest selling of all time in Australia, although he had his first #1 single back in 1967 as a teen pop idol

I know their certifications but nothing detailed outside of that Black Magic is probably passing 50,000 sales this week though.

Things seem to be back in business with debuts correctly debuting this week, and even despite what happened in the UK, streaming data appears to be intact. Incidentally there isn't much in the way of new chart hits in the top half. Majority of re-entries in the bottom half are due to The Voice. Chris Brown had been regularly getting chart entries just about once a month this year until a brief lapse in June. To make up for this, he has 2 debuting songs this week. Travie McCoy has his second solo top 10 hit this week, and in fact highest charter as "Golden" lands 1 spot higher than "Billionaire" 5 years ago. Although for some reason Gym Class Heroes had a #1 hit with "Ass Back Home" so that'll always be a thing. Galantis also get their second top 10 hit this week, and "Peanut Butter Jelly" looks poised to match or outpeak "Runaway (U & I)"'s #4 peak next week. "Headlights" reaches #2 and thus outpeaks "Waves". Along with Galantis & The Weeknd, it could challenge for the next #1 in the coming weeks.

Perhaps surprisingly, "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" matches "All About That Bass"'s 4 weeks at the top. Sales are the lowest they've been since 2010 however. There should also be a new #1 next week but it remains to be seen if Lost Frequencies or 5 Seconds Of Summer (or someone else?) will be the one to get there at this stage. Magic Mike XXL gets Ginuwine's #3 smash "Pony" back in the charts for the first time in 18 years, while the Voice performance of Drake's "Hold On, We're Going Home" which got that back in the charts last week, has now oddly turned attention to Lakyn's (who was actually a contestant on season 1 of "The Voice" with a top 10 hit to boot) year old cover of it. I'm pretty sure JLS never charted in Australia but now for some reason Aston Merrygold is in the top 50. We'll likely get a new #1 album next week too courtesy of Tame Impala. Interesting news on the album chart this week is that the longest ever running album, "The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac", re-enters thanks to a discount and scores a new peak of #11 in the process! It previously peaked at #16 and has spent at least 5 weeks in the top 50 every calendar year since 2002.

Lost Frequencies has no problem getting to #1 this week. Interestingly I'm told that it's the first ever #1 single for the ever-present Ministry of Sound label. It's also the first time a Belgian artist has had a #1 single, unless you want to count Gotye, but no one in Australia would. For the second week in a row, streaming pushes The Weeknd from #3 on downloads to #2 on the chart. Galantis have their 2nd #4 hit but could perhaps reach new heights as "Peanut Butter Jelly" is firmly lodged at #2 on iTunes. After a nearly 3 year absense, Chris Brown returned to the top 10 with "Five More Hours" a couple months back, and he's back again alongside Pia Mia & Tyga on "Do It Again". Despite having 7 top 50 hits now, Tyga hadn't even been in the top 30 before. On the album chart, Tame Impala's first two albums both hit #4 and eventually were certified gold & platinum respectively. Presumably with a very safe margin, they now have their first #1 album this week! The Chemical Brothers' top 5 entry is also their highest chart appearance since "Push The Button" also entered at #5 10 years ago. For some reason the Magic Mike XXL soundtrack didn't debut last week, but here it is now, presumably lower than it would have been. Possibly thanks to her Graham Norton performance airing here, Jessie Ware simultaneously gets her first ever entry on both singles & albums this week.

No contest on the singles chart this week, but next week Lost Frequencies could slip to #3 as The Weeknd's new video provides a big jump, but that will perhaps be outdone by One Direction who look poised to score their first ever #1 single. Delta Goodrem gets her 16th top 10 (and first in 2 years) with "Wings" at #8. The top of the album chart is particularly heavy this week as local metalcore act Northlane get their first ever #1 album, preventing US metal band Lamb of God from doing the same. Alan Jackson's 20th studio album gives him his highest ever placement. For the first time this year, Sam Smith is not in the top 10.

Believe it or not, but this is the first time One Direction have ever had a #1 single here. That's essentially out of poor luck though, as their previous closest effort "Live While We're Young" broke the record for weekly digital sales, or would have if it hadn't been released on "Gangnam Style"'s strongest week which was just that little bit higher. "Ghost Town" is aided by some promo and a handy discount on iTunes, in fact it's a good chance to go to #1 next week. Another first, "Good For You" is Selena Gomez's first ever top 10 hit, oddly most of her biggest songs have had lengthy runs without cracking the top 40. "Omen" is also Disclosure's first top 40 hit, surpassing the #47 peak of "Latch". With "Thinking Out Loud" and "Take Me To Church" out, the 4 top 50 dropouts this week average 32 weeks in the top 50. A quiet week on the album chart helps Meghan Trainor return to #1 for the first time since her debut week. Dr. Dre & The Rubens will give her competition next week. Indigenous musician Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu is one of the most successful local artists of the last decade, and gets a 3rd #3 peaking album.

Next week's chart should be interesting. Adam is still doing very well and was #1 on iTunes until an hour ago, I think. Delta's Wings is now iTunes #1 after her Voice performance, with Adam at #2. Demi should benefit too as she also performed on The Voice. On Spotify, Adam is currently miles ahead of the three, as he is number 25 and Demi and Delta will probably make impact tomorrow as the daily chart was updated 2 hours ago.

Adam is a likely #1 for next week as he had the weekend advantage. Delta might catch up in the next four days but streaming might slow her down. Demi is increasing also; she might make Top 10 but that's tough to call.

QUOTE(buzz_person @ Aug 9 2015, 03:34 PM)

Yeah Adam has the advantage at the moment (I am really surprised how well Adam has held up actually) but if Delta gets a decent lead on iTunes she could have an outside chance I think. Had One Direction not had such a big lead over last weekend Adam could have been #1 judging from the sale figures (he sold about 18,000 which is the same/more than what Lost Frequencies/Meghan were recently selling). Whilst streaming could affect the outcome, I am sure Delta will have some too and it won't make more than a 1000 or 2000 sales difference.

I am really loving the Australian chart this year and its had a good set of #1s IMO. I'd watch out for Locked Away, seems to be climbing quite quickly at the moment.

Posted by: Dircadirca 9th August 2015, 03:15 PM

Yeah, it'll depend on how big an iTunes lead Delta gets. I think the effect of being #1 on the chart is how Adam managed to hold so long, so he might be in for a bit of a drop tomorrow. Incidentally, ARIA appear to have increased the ratio of streaming, so The Weeknd & Galantis aren't actually that far behind Adam right now (maybe Lost Frequencies as well but his Spotify positions seem oddly low lately for some reason?). As much as I'd like her to do well with this single , I think Demi will be lucky if she can peak in the top 20.

As you might have heard, a bit of self-promo on The Voice can't hurt and it helps Delta's new single "Wings" recover significantly and snatch the top spot. Rather unlucky for Adam who is stuck at #2 for a second week. Thus far, next week's battle is rather difficult to predict. The top 4 on iTunes are as they are on this chart, but the key factor is that Spotify has the 4 in reverse order, putting all 4 of them neck and neck. I imagine when The Voice airs tonight, Delta will again surge somewhat but it remains to be seen if that can hold up for the whole week. Nico & Vinz are also one to watch in the near future. "That's How You Know" is their 3rd top 20 hit but I can see it climbing rapidly later in the week (currently #8 on iTunes). Meanwhile, some iTunes promo helped Jason Derulo get a new peak last week with "Cheyenne", but with that gone this week, it nearly drops straight out of the top 50. To the rescue, he has a new entry teaming up with DJ Hardwell, who has actually never even made the top 100 before. This also means Jason has 3 singles in the #41-#50 section of the chart.

On the album chart, it's bad luck for The Rubens who yet again have a rather overwhelming chart opponent (their first album was out the same week as P!nk's "The Truth About Love". I've heard that Dr. Dre has had one of the biggest sales weeks of the year with his new album, which in a way is surprising as until this week, he'd never been in the top 50 albums chart. That is also amended somewhat though as his last album "2001" (which is double platinum) jumps into the top 30 to beat its old #53 peak. Next week, Dr. Dre may be able to hold the top spot, but his competition will come from Bullet For My Valentine, Dead Letter Circus & The Waifs, 3 artists who have 8 top 5 albums between them, but never a #1.

Posted by: Danvicii 16th August 2015, 04:47 AM

surprised Delta is still relevant enough to get a #1 even in Australia, and the Aston Merrygold flop actually doing decently in Aus?!!?

Posted by: buzz_person 16th August 2015, 10:57 AM

Figures:

Delta - 18010 (15760 sales + 750 stream unit points) - could explain her absence from Spotify Daily 50 all week.
Adam - 16330 (14830 sales + 1500 stream)
The Weeknd - 15090 (11840 sales + 3240 stream) - #1 this week in stream
Lost Frequencies - 14900 (12950 sales + 1950 stream)

The Voice is really helping guest performers do very well in the charts this season. Their ratings are far from their gigantic days, but still does very well. Good for Demi to enter Top 20.

Posted by: Dircadirca 16th August 2015, 11:51 AM

Also to note that it's a rare week where the #1 album sold more than the #1 single. "Compton" did 19185 copies which is the biggest sales week since "1989" at the start of the year.

Amazing for Delta, it's a rarity for a local act to get a #1 especially now with streaming added in but it being her 9th is astounding this far into her career and coming after two flop singles I thought she'd never see such relevancy again

Top 20 is great for Demi too, her first in fact! It's her first "proper" top 40 too, Let It Go reached #25 because of Frozen but that's it.

You're right!!! They got Adam and Lost Frequencies' numbers right. The Weeknd's total is off only by 10 and Delta is way off. Now looking at it, I am assuming their physical sales are being counted but not being released from the source I got it from, which might be the case. I find it interesting that CFMF has sold 10 copies from stores that week. I also remember seeing Samantha Jade performing at a club a few weeks back and they were giving away free CDs of her latest song!!

I know the person that the sales info comes from, and they always scrub out the last digit in the figures because ARIA don't allow *exact* figures to be published online. So whether by rounding up or down, The Weeknd's total is solely from digital + streaming. Delta's are definitely physical sales though I'm surprised they're that high still in her 3rd week.

It's quite possible that the press due to achieving #1 last week is what kept "Wings" at #1 again this week Likely it will be in for a drop next week as Sony refuse to let any other record companies at #1 and are now giving "How Deep Is Your Love" the full blast of promotion. Nico & Vinz get their 2nd top 10 hit with "That's How You Know" which probably would be #1 next week if not for the aforementioned push. For some reason Aston Merrygold is in the top 10 too. Streaming is also catching up with increasingly dire sales, as Jess Glynne & Duke Dumont's top 40 digital tracks aren't even able to hit the top 50 officially this week. Though they only have 1 top 50 apiece this year, Fetty Wap & Disclosure both get a 4th chart debut for 2015.

On the album chart, Welsh rockers Bullet For My Valentine finally achieve their first #1, possibly aided by their timely Soundwave festival slot announcement. Many condolences for Dead Letter Circus though, as all 3 of their albums now have peaked at #2, the first two being behind Justin Bieber & RÜFÜS respectively. This moves them up to tied 2nd with the Backstreet Boys for most #2 albums without a #1. They're still a while away from leading that stat though, as all 5 of Radiohead's albums released this century have peaked at #2 without a #1 in sight (even Thom Yorke's first solo album peaked at #2 as well!). Meanwhile the Avril Lavigne album that was deemed ineligible in the UK sits at #23 because ARIA are silly Next week's album chart looks like a battle between Disturbed and Bon Jovi, with Rob Thomas potentially in the mix too.

Avril Lavigne and Family Guy game!!!

Delta is really on a roll with Wings and it is well deserved. It is truly much better than Sitting On Top of the World in 2012. Anja, last year's Voice winner, flopped with her new single and she even performed on The Voice last week! She didn't even make Top 50 on iTunes so not really surprised. Expecting huge second week from Nico & Vinz. Sony better be prepared this week with How Deep Is Your Love as Universal will give an enormous push to The Weeknd's Can't Feel My Face. Both these songs are virtually everywhere from radio to TV!! Both songs are also consistently strong on sales and streaming. Lana is apparently still at number 51, and I'm hoping she can achieve higher results for High By The Beach. Then again, Lana performs much better on albums anyway.

Singles Sales (number 2-4 are really close):

Delta: 14760
Calvin: 13530
The Weeknd: 13130 (#1 on stream)
Lost Frequencies: 13020
Adam: 12490

Lana dropped down to #55 actually. She's nearly top 50 on Spotify and has two versions on iTunes so she might be able to sneak in this week. Don't think I can see The Weeknd getting to #1 though (although his album looks a good chance 2 weeks from now). They haven't bothered to discount it or get it on a promo or anything; I feel like Sony is the only company that try to game the Aus charts Short of some sudden shift of sales, I think Calvin has this week locked down.

Also to note, Fire and the Flood is getting covered on The Voice tonight, so that could jump into the top 10 perhaps.

Oh @ Lana falling down.

I'm hoping she can sneak in this week.

As for Sony Music Australia, of course, because they are Sony Music Australia.

Is there any particular reason why Aston Merrygold is top 10 in Oz? Did he perform it somewhere? If I recollect JLS weren't really big in Australia were they?

I don't think he's performed it anywhere, unless I'm being really blind

And if I recall correctly, JLS never even charted in Australia... with anything... and they never toured over there...

Weird.

Weird.

I've just checked Youtube which tells me he performed on Sunrise Australia last week and Dancing With The Stars on Sunday, presumably along with other promotion/a radio tour, which'd explain it. And yeah, I'm pretty sure JLS didn't impact Australia at all so this solo success is all the more impressive.

EDIT: Oh wait, the Dancing With The Stars performance wouldn't have affected the above chart then but I'd imagine the fact he's currently #4 on iTunes is down to it.

Another heavily streaming influenced top 10 this week, with Vance Joy scoring his second top 10 hit, but low streaming pushing him out of the top 5. More notably, Aston Merrygold spent the whole week top 8 on iTunes, but despite previously mentioned TV promo, actually falls out of the top 10 this week! It is probably most worth mentioning this week that thanks to some rather convenient prodding (like say an iTunes discount that lasted for exactly 7 days), Calvin Harris (and Disciples) has his first EVER #1 hit I am told that the last time a Scottish artist had a #1 single, it was The Proclaimers in 1989. If you include the album chart, it was possibly the partially Scottish Garbage in 2001 as most recent. On the unfortunate side of things, "Wings" takes a bit of a tumble from #1 to #9, one spot lower than One Direction fell, and the biggest drop from #1 since Reece Mastin dropped to #12 in 2012. "Locked Away" does what none of the "V" singles could do for Adam and makes the top 5, and Jeremih does something Lady Gaga hasn't done in the last 4 years and gets his first top 10 hit. Also Nico & Vinz have two #2 singles without a #1 now. As a final note, "Run Away With Me" debuts at #100, but largely thanks to good streaming as it had been around #120 for most of the week on iTunes. It is quite possibly the only song that has only charted because of streaming.

On the album chart, Disturbed get their 2nd #1 album (which could have easily been their 3rd, but their last album just came up short on the same week "Teenage Dream" was released). Despite having a top 5 hit last time and having no top 100 hits this time, Rob Thomas matches the debut position of #4 of his last album. Next week, The Weeknd should almost certainly be #1, but it's difficult to say whether Halsey or Foals will be the runner up. On the singles chart it looks like Justin Bieber will be scoring his first #1 hit, with Nelly & R. City rather close behind, and depending on what happens during the VMAs, perhaps Taylor Swift is amongst it too.

Delta has such weird chart run so far 8-26-1-1-9-

Posted by: buzz_person 30th August 2015, 05:11 AM

Good for Carly's Run Away With Me charting as her album is off to a disappointing start. If there is any silver lining, E-MO-TION is getting great reviews from critics. Wings falling down was expected as it fell quickly out of Top 5 on iTunes and she didn't really do much on streaming. At least Sony can celebrate with Calvin as the new champion. Also very good news for Vance Joy and Taylor. We'll see how much Taylor's Wildest Dream will make an impact for next week's chart when the video will premiere tomorrow.

Posted by: Dircadirca 30th August 2015, 07:42 AM

It was a bit unlucky for Wings though. Lost Frequencies at #4 was less than 1000 sales ahead of Nelly at #10, so she could have easily stayed lodged in the top 5. Without physical sales, perhaps she could have been #12 though

We've recently seen One Direction & Calvin Harris finally get their first #1 singles, now Justin Bieber does the same. With absolute ease as well, holding a huge lead on sales & streaming. R. City move up to #2 which means it's the 3rd time Adam Levine has provided vocals for a #2 hit this decade. Still yet to have another #1 single since "She Will Be Loved" though. "Wildest Dreams" gets Taylor Swift her 4th top 5 hit from "1989" (as "Style" peaked at #8 and the rest at #1), and streaming again prevents Vance Joy from entering the top 5 though he does match the peak set by "Riptide"(!) This year's season of The Voice seems to have impacted the chart moreso than last year, so this time the winner's single gets all the way to #25, while the runner up is at #52 (and with a drastic drop from #36 on the digital chart). The two most unexpected hitmakers to get #1 hits this year, Omi & LunchMoney Lewis, both simultaneously score second top 50 hits this week.

On the album chart, The Weeknd unsurprisingly gets his first ever #1 in Australia. As Justin Bieber is also #1, it's the first time we've had Canadians at #1 on both charts since 2007 when Avril Lavigne & Michael Buble did so. He may possibly hold on for a second week though iTunes suggests that Troye Sivan's new album chart eligible EP may pose a threat. Halsey scores a #2 album despite never making the singles chart before, and Foals manage a #3 peak to follow up 2013's surprise #1 "Holy Fire". While not as severe as Bars & Melody in the UK chart, Short Stack tumble from #5 to #55 this week. Next week along with Troye, you can expect N.W.A. to climb higher as the biopic finally is in theatres here. There's even a chance they could have some singles chart entries.

What an excellent top 3, can't believe The Fix is doing so well there but flopping in US & UK!

Posted by: buzz_person 6th September 2015, 08:15 AM

Wonderful for Taylor to enter Top 5 with Wildest Dreams!! I'm confused why she still has no streaming points. Do ARIA not count Apple Music data? Her catalogue is there and she must have at least some points there. Number 25 is quite an achievement for Ellie, I think, considering how Anja didn't really do well last year. However, the season finale ratings was down AGAIN from last year. At least X Factor's winning single manages a high debut, even if their subsequent singles don't perform and/or are not marketed very well.

Delta is falling rather quickly after her #1 peak and quite shocked that Calvin is experiencing a similar fate this week. I was expecting Calvin to stay in Top 5. Jessie J's single tanked but I'm not sure if it was even an intended single release to begin with. Impressed at Fifth Harmony's longevity in Australia when in the UK, Worth It had a shorter stay than I expected. Excellent debut for Macklemore & Ryan Lewis after their VMA performance. No doubt Downtown's streaming points will grow even bigger. Vance Joy is achieving great success with his new single but his stay in Top 10 might be short lived since his streaming points are not making much impact, as of now.

I don't think ARIA have updated the streaming participaters since they started the Streaming Chart about 3 years ago, at least they haven't updated it on http://www.ariacharts.com.au/about/chart-stores.

The top 10 seems to be very competitive right now. After just getting to #3 this week, Nelly is looking like he could potentially fall to #9 (or lower) next week. Incidentally, Wings is holding on better now around the #15 mark on iTunes, which is really weird since The Voice is over and radio have rather quickly dumped the song.

Posted by: buzz_person 6th September 2015, 10:37 AM

I'm quite shocked only five streaming providers are listed there. They really need to update their list. Even France's SNEP has more participating streaming companies and they still haven't merged their singles chart (SNEP admitted that they are currently not as experienced and have technical means as OCC/BPI to make the move )!! Although, I do find it interesting that JB HIFI has a streaming service.

Justin will likely get a second week at #1. The rest of the Top 10 are insanely close!! So, I am expecting more moving around next week. I am loving how more Warner songs are making competitive entries and longevities now. It's nice to see.

Unlike a lot of recent #1s, Justin Bieber has no problem maintaining strong sales and lands a second week at #1. He'll face competition next week from Macklemore & Ryan Lewis who are fast catching up with what could potentially be their 4th #1 single "Downtown" now at #2. The release of the clean version helps Nico & Vinz rebound to #5. For whatever reason, "Straight Outta Compton" is nowhere to be found on the singles chart but nonetheless "F**k Tha Police" finds its way into the top 50 N.W.A. also have two albums in the top 10 and there are a multitude of solo albums littered about the chart as well. Simply Red are currently touring the country hence the two debuts. Perhaps of most interest on the album chart this week though is that Troye Sivan makes history with the first ever EP to go #1 on the album chart. To my knowledge, Skrillex's "Bangarang" peaking at #4 was previously the highest. Next week, Bring Me The Horizon will likely score their 3rd consecutive #1 album.

Posted by: buzz_person 13th September 2015, 02:13 PM

Good for Troye for reaching #1 on an EP. Interesting to see how the #1 album is divided between states. For example, Troye is at the top in NSW while Iron Maiden is #1 in Victoria.

I am hoping Macklemore can achieve #1 for Downtown. It might not quite be next week but the week after is possible. Interesting how Demi's Cool For The Summer didn't do much in Australia, having only peaked at #20. Very much a contrast in NZ, where it entered Top 10 this week at number 9 and is certified Gold. Looks like Taylor FINALLY has some streaming points after all from Apple at 570 points, which should be over 100k streams? I don't know what ARIA's ratio of streaming:sales are now.

Posted by: Dircadirca 13th September 2015, 03:24 PM

Yeah I forgot to mention the Apple Music inclusion partly because I didn't have a confirmation on it, but would explain why nearly all of Taylor Swift's singles are back up. The streaming ratio makes for an interesting question, because I always had it around 1:180, but this week a lot of things are rather lower than expected, especially considering the inclusion of a new service should make them go higher, so perhaps they've been adjusted down. At a guess I'd say the ratio is something like 1:250 but hard to tell when there's no Apple Music data available as readily as Spotify's.

I do think Cool For The Summer did quite well here considering that prior to it, her only top 40 hits here were Let It Go, Somebody To You & Up.

Though his lead has dropped a lot, Justin Bieber still safely holds #1. Next week could go either way with Macklemore & Ryan Lewis now having a sales advantage. Because Australia is Australia, P!nk's new theme for Ellen nearly debuts in the top 10 (#7 on digital sales even). Jess Glynne has just about matched the peak of "Hold My Hand" with her current single, and "The Hills" finally hits the top 20, so now every chart entry from The Weeknd has done so. After getting back into the charts thanks to a Voice cover earlier this year...London Grammar got covered on X Factor and are back again Same case for Sia's 2010 track "My Love" which is now charting for the first time ever. Though it's rather fresh compared to Peter Allen's "I Still Call Australia Home" which is now charting due to a mini-series about him.

Bring Me The Horizon have a dubious chart record that surprisingly still holds 5 years later. In 2010, they set the current record for lowest #1 sales when "There Is A Hell Believe Me I've Seen It, There Is A Heaven Let's Keep It A Secret" debuted at #1 with just 3,600 sales. They couldn't back it up with longevity either as it was out of the top 100 in about a month. Their next album though with much more crossover appeal, debuted with much stronger sales and I believe went gold. So now despite having no #1 albums anywhere else (and not even being from Australia), Bring Me The Horizon claim their 3rd consecutive #1 here, and the 3rd biggest 1st week sales of 2015 (behind Dr. Dre & Florence + The Machine). The album that beat them to the top in the UK is merely #39 here. Speaking of differences with the UK Charts, Nero's 2nd album has been a bit of a comedown from their 2011 success, but in Australia, it lands only 1 place behind the #12 peak of "Welcome Reality". Latest Voice winner Ellie Drennan may have had a bit more single success, but her album lands 3 places lower than last year's winner. Also as it stands, Jarryd James joins an unlucky standing of having gotten as high as #2 on both singles & albums.

With 4 weeks at #1, "What Do You Mean?" is the equal 2nd longest runner at #1 this year so far behind "See You Again". Its podium is being threatened though, "Downtown" finally ousted it on iTunes and Warner were desperate enough to even discount it after this happened. So Macklemore & Ryan Lewis have quite a lead so far, but Justin is set to perform on X Factor later this week so that might be enough to put him back on top. Meanwhile, Omi miraculously has a 2nd top 10 hit, and Naughty Boy/Fetty Wap get their 2nd top 50 hits to date. On the album chart, Lana Del Rey getting a 3rd #1 puts her level with Taylor Swift, Michael Buble & Bring Me The Horizon (what a group) and only behind One Direction for most #1 albums this decade. Thanks to the timing of release, David Gilmour charts higher than the Pink Floyd album last year did. Though her profile isn't quite as high here as in the UK, Jess Glynne manages a top 10 album, and Ryan Adams bests his 2014 effort by 1 place to get a new chart height of #9 with his Taylor Swift covers album.

Justin Bieber did reclaim the top spot on iTunes halfway through the week but it wasn't enough to stop Macklemore & Ryan Lewis getting a 4th(!) #1 single here. Robin Schulz takes "Sugar" up to #3 this week, which is the same peak as Baby Bash's "Suga Suga" (which is heavily sampled) reached 11 years ago. Jessica Mauboy's new single wasn't off to a great start, but slot in an X Factor performance and a physical release, and hey presto it's in the top 10. It's her 9th top 10 hit, and remarkably all 9 have peaked in a different position from #1 through to #9. Sam Smith doesn't have quite the same pull as Adele, with "Writing's On The Wall" barely limping into the top 50 compared to "Skyfall"'s #5 debut. On the album chart it's all about Parkway Drive who despite being perhaps the biggest name in the local hardcore scene, have never had a #1 album until now. They've generally had great sales too, but their last two albums came up short against Eminem & Taylor Swift respectively. More improvements to be seen as Disclosure & Chvrches peaked at #5 and #13 in 2013, but this time both are in the top 3. Next week looks to be a close competition between the long running triple j Like A Version series, and the new album from local legends Cold Chisel.

Jessica top 10

Posted by: Liаm 4th October 2015, 12:14 PM

Yaaasssss Jess, that's a higher peak than her past two leads (#21 for To The End Of The Earth, #19 for Get 'Em Girls), I just hope it doesn't bomb down the chart now but at least that's a much better result than having the same peak as the 6th single from Beautiful!

Posted by: buzz_person 4th October 2015, 11:29 PM

Fantastic for Downtown reaching #1!!! It took a while but glad it finally reached there!!! Sugar has been played more on radio, MTV and Channel V recently, so longevity may be possible. Great for Jess and Sia to grab another Top 10. The numbers for Top 10 sales are looking rather closer in recent weeks. The Top 2 race was tight but the numbers for 3-10 were quite close as well that any of these seven songs would have traded places.

No change at the top. Ellie Goulding has been in the country and performed at the AFL grand final which pushed some of her hits back up. On My Mind was briefly #1 on iTunes but no longer so it looks like Macklemore & Ryan Lewis will be #1 again next week. Jess Mauboy ruins my observation from last week as This Ain't Love moves up to #5, making it possibly the highest charting drum & bass song apart from "Feel The Love" Drake also sets a new best for himself on the singles chart as Hotline Bling lands at his favourite number. Same can also be said of Disclosure who get their first top 20 hit alongside Lorde who gets her 4th. On the album chart, triple j's Like a Version series gets a 3rd consecutive #1, and in the process gives Cold Chisel their 3rd #2 album this decade. They haven't had a #1 since 1998. Bryan Adams was also at the AFL grand final to explain the questionable entries.

After it not being apparent they'd even get there, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are quite entrenched at #1, and it looks pretty likely they'll get a 4th week next week. Only Pharrell, Rihanna & LMFAO have spent more time this decade at #1 than them. In what is surely a blatant attempt to game the chart, this year's X Factor performances have been going straight to pre-order and only becoming available on Friday, essentially allowing them 11 days to accumulate sales and maximise their debut. Though none quite made it in last week, thanks to heavy plugging on the promos, a version of Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" comes in at #6 (though it was #3 on the digital tracks chart, because these performances have never been on Spotify). That means it outpeaks the original which only got to #14, as well as Parra For Cuva's version which made #13 last year. Rudimental have their 4th top 10 hit with "Lay It All On Me", and The Weeknd finally makes the top 10 with "The Hills" thanks to the remix package. Although apparently the remix package itself is #101 this week, people individually buying the Eminem remix are counting. The track still seems to be rather low though considering it was at one point the top selling song on iTunes last week, which is possibly because I don't think sales (and possibly streams) of the clean version are counting to its chart positions, for some reason. Anyway, Fetty Wap has a big jump with "679" which puts it at a chance to outpeak "Trap Queen" as it's only 2 places away from doing that. The 1975 get their first EVER charting single this week, and live performances on X Factor help boost Jess Glynne & Little Mix to new peaks with their current singles.

On the album chart, Sydney band Boy & Bear get their 2nd #1 with their 3rd album. Their 1st album is by far their most successful (and won them an Album of the Year ARIA Award), but like many 2011 albums, it was blocked by Adele's "21". Mind you I can't say with absolute confidence that they are #1 this week as The Game started the week at #1 on iTunes but for some reason, is completely absent from the chart. Either way, it's a new chart peak for Selena Gomez at #3, and Jess Glynne's album jumps back into the top 10. Though the iTunes album chart is being dominated by pre-orders, it's looking quite likely that next week's #1 will be Hillsong, potentially the first time they've had 2 #1s in a row (or even in the same year).

Slay me Mahalia #88 *.* In seriousness oh wow, Cyrus at #6 Nobody last season even got top 10 (apart from Dean and Marlisa with their winner/runner-up singles, i know he was #1 for a while but I thought streaming would push him down more!

Posted by: Dircadirca 18th October 2015, 05:26 AM

I reckon overall lowered sales will help X Factor entries a lot. Wouldn't be surprised if the winner single goes to #1 even though Marlisa missed out last year.

Also just in, Boy & Bear only made #1 by less than 100 sales

One of the absolute closest chart battles in recent times has ended up with the least surprising result. "Downtown" is #1 for a 4th week, but only holds off "Hotline Bling" by 200 sales, which in itself was only about 200 sales ahead of "The Hills" which finally seems to be getting its sales correctly counted. One Direction can't be far off the mark too as they outranked Macklemore & Ryan Lewis on the digital tracks chart, which means that the clean version of "Downtown" which generally sits around #50 on iTunes is what kept it at #1. Jess Glynne's recent promo continues to pay dividends as it nets her a first solo top 10 hit with "Don't Be So Hard On Yourself". Despite missing the UK top 40, Duke Dumont's "Ocean Drive" is proving a strong hit here, moving up to #17 and matching "I Got U" for his highest position, but it may very well keep climbing next week. Despite neither having charted at all here before, Zara Larsson & MNEK look to do well here with "Never Forget You" debuting in the top 40, but rapidly climbing on iTunes and Spotify so could be top 10 next week. For X Factor, the pre-order strategy proves to make the tracks excessively frontloaded, as Cyrus's #6 debut last week falls to #81. Incidentally, the highest act this week is Jess & Matt who were nearly eliminated.

On the album chart, Hillsong get their 4th #1. This time it's under the Hillsong Worship banner from which (if Wikipedia can be trusted) they got their 1st #1 in 2004, while the other two were Hillsong United. This means that there have been two Hillsong #1s this year. Demi Lovato makes a big improvement on past performance and gets her first top 10 album this week, all the way up at #3. The same can also be said of Pentatonix who manage #5. For the second week in a row, The Game's self-released new album is absent from the chart, which I'd hazard to say would have landed in the top 10. Despite underperformance in the singles chart this year, 5 Seconds Of Summer will very likely debut at #1 next week. Adele's "21" re-enters the chart at #97 in preparation for her world take over.

I don't think anyone is surprised that Adele is #1. Incidentally though, Australia seems relatively nonplussed as she was 'only' selling about four times as much as the main pack. Justin Bieber is #2 of course on figures that would probably have him #1 most weeks. Either way, a week later and neither song has really budged so expect to see the same top 2 again next week. "Uptown Funk" becomes only the 6th song to last 50 weeks in the top 50, and only the 3rd to do it without dropping out. It only has 3 weeks to go to match the longevity record bizarrely being held by Bruce Springsteen & LMFAO. Also if you want a good measure of how streaming is sitting on the chart at the moment, Sigala was #40 on the digital tracks chart, but because his streams don't count for some reason, he's pushed down 19 spots to #59. He should probably be around #35. But then at least he's on the chart; Avicii's "Broken Arrows" was a strong seller this past week but there's no evidence of it on the chart at all, classic ARIA.

On the album chart, 5 Seconds of Summer's 2nd album goes straight to #1 just like their debut. They block Chris Isaak who has only been to #1 with his Best Of in 2006. Since Adele & Justin Bieber's pre-orders don't count to next week's chart, it's a bit of an empty week on the schedule. It looks like recent ARIA Hall Of Fame inductee Tina Arena will be getting her first #1 album in nearly 20 years though.

A side effect of Adele not quite performing quite as strongly here as in other countries is that I have the slight suspicion her sales this week haven't really dropped at all, and don't look like dropping much next week either, she still is selling more than double of any other song. Rolling In The Deep also joins Someone Like You at the bottom of the chart, both songs have sold roughly the same here. Meanwhile Duke Dumont has his first ever top 10 hit with "Ocean Drive", and Ariana Grande gets her 4th with "Focus". Incidentally, streaming impacts her position moreso here than in the UK despite streams counting for half as much here. Ariana's debut also spells bad luck for LunchMoney Lewis who has spent four consecutive weeks at #11 with "Whip It!" not cracking the top 10.

On the album chart, just like in the UK, the new Elvis compilation goes straight to #1. What's perhaps surprising about this is that because Australia's album chart only started in 1975 (I think), this is actually only Elvis's 2nd #1 album, after his Hits compilation in the early 2000s. Def Leppard also go in at #4 despite their last studio album not even cracking the top 50. Next week expect big entries from Little Mix and Ellie Goulding but they may both struggle to top the chart. For some reason, Michael Buble's "Christmas" is back in the chart earlier than usual. It has gone to #1 every year since release but perhaps Adele will be able to stop it this time.

Both charts have the same #1 for the first time in ages. Adele's sales are slowly slipping but still strong enough to earn double platinum status in just 3 weeks. Unlike in the UK, Justin Bieber's "Sorry" is still a decent way behind, only around 60% on iTunes at the moment. "The Trouble With Us" gets Chet Faker his 2nd top 10 hit this year, and leaps over "Whip It!" which ends its 4 week run at #11. Coldplay debut at #33 which leaves a bit to be desired after "Magic" started its run at #17 and then jumped to #6. After two weeks of being mysteriously denied from the chart, Avicii finally debuts with "Broken Arrows", which is the second top 50 hit from "Stories" as "For A Better Day" narrowly missed the top 50. Meanwhile happy birthday to "Uptown Funk" which has now amassed 52 consecutive weeks in the top 50. If it can stay another week, it'll tie for the most weeks in, but it may have trouble as its streaming is looking a bit shaky now. Of course, being the big hit that it is, it could potentially climb back up around Christmas time.

On the album chart, after week after week of different albums at the top, the new Elvis Presley compilation does the unthinkable and spends 2 weeks in a row at #1. In doing so, it stops Little Mix from getting their first #1 album, although they do improve upon the #4 peak of "Salute". Ellie Goulding also narrowly improves upon the #4 peak of "Halcyon Days", landing at #3. Local favourites Birds of Tokyo (with a greatest hits compilation) and Sarah Blasko both get their 4th top 10 albums this week. Next week is the big battle. Justin Bieber has only had 2 #1 albums with "My Worlds" and "Believe", but has performed significantly better on the charts this year than One Direction, who have had all of their albums go to #1. One Direction have probably had way more pre-orders just because of how long it's been available, but Justin is leading on iTunes at the moment. Also if Wikipedia is to be trusted, there'll be a One Direction performance on X Factor this week, it's really too close to call.

Welcome to Justin Bieber week The release of "Purpose" sees 7 debuts in the top 100, and Justin has 8 tracks in the top 50. Aside from that, X Factor season is coming to a close which of course means a new Guy Sebastian single in the charts, "Black & Blue" debuts at #8 as a heavy victim of streaming & a crowded section of the chart; if I'm not mistaken it was the 9th highest selling song of the week. On the other hand, despite probably worse streaming figures, local hardcore outfit The Amity Affliction get their first top 20 hit with their new single, also impressive as their past top 50 hits benefitted from when insta-grat sales were counted. Missy Elliott has her first top 50 hit in over 9 years this week. Lots of older hits that were clogging up the #41-#50 section on Spotify (and benefitting from people who just play the chart) had a rude awakening when all the Bieber/1D shoved them out of place. One such hit (although it did slip out briefly before) was "Uptown Funk" which finally has streaming not on its side, and is out of the top 50 for the first time ever. It could return with the Christmas season which would give it the record for most weeks in the top 50.

On the album chart, Justin notches up his 3rd #1, in doing so gives 1D their first non-#1 album ("Up All Night" of course climbed to #1, but odds are considerably against their favour to repeat this). Ed Sheeran benefits well with the re-package of "x" pushing it to its highest position in several months. Next week, spoiler alert: Adele will be #1

Even though she's never toured here, Australia's love of Adele seemingly knows no bounds. "Hello" continues its reign at #1 and looks to do so again next week (maybe a few thousand copies ahead of "Love Yourself"). Despite the non-streaming, she even picks up 5 new entries from "25" and 2 re-entries from "21". "Skyfall" and "Make You Feel My Love", the latter of which has never charted here, are egregiously absent. The latest season of The X Factor Australia wraps up and perhaps unsurprisingly, Cyrus was the winner. Unfortunately for him though, his winning single "Stone" 'only' comes in at #4, the lowest peak for an X Factor winner since 2010. It will have trouble even maintaining that as it's not really catching on with Spotify and is slipping on iTunes fast. Unfortunately, not even Australia is safe from the evil forces of X Factor making "Jealous" a thing, as it was performed by Cyrus on the show for a second time and is now back in the top 50. Prepare for chaos next week as we see the effects of Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran & Rudimental all on tour here, as well as the post-ARIA Awards chart boosts.

On the album chart, the most predictable #1 ever is indeed #1. What might not have been predictable are the sales that achieved it. "25" goes triple platinum instantly, which strongly suggests it's the biggest sales week for an album ever, beating out Susan Boyle's end of year rush in 2009. As was announced at the ARIA Awards, Ed Sheeran receives a newly introduced Diamond sales award for "x" meaning that it's sold 500,000 copies (just a little over 7xPlatinum). It seems to not be a retroactive award though, as "Christmas" & "21" are both also in the top 10 this week and retain their multi-platinum status (which are both higher than "x"). Enya has her 8th top 10 album, now 5 of which have peaked at #7 or #8. There don't seem to be many major new releases for next week so obviously Adele will retain #1, and the aforementioned tours/awards will provide sizeable boosts.

I think Delta Goodrem may also have went triple platinum in her first week with Mistaken Identity?

Posted by: buzz_person 29th November 2015, 11:06 PM

I'm a bit surprised that the Diamond award is at 500k. I would have at least thought it would be at 700k so that 10x Platinum would become Diamond like the US. It would be interesting to see if Buble and Adele will get their awards as well as they have sold way past the new threshold, like you said. Ed would have received it since he performed at the ARIAs. I remember when the ARIAs used to have awards for Highest Selling Single/Album for Aussie artists.

I believe you are right. This all seems to be moot anyway for Adele as it turns out she sold around 126K, which is about 40K behind the record sales week and debut.

Adele has held the #1 spot for 6 straight weeks now, but it looks like it'll be her last. Justin Bieber was a mere 250 sales from #1 this week, and is only continuing his momentum in sales & streams. Miraculously, Duke Dumont has a top 5 hit here with "Ocean Drive", and with Stereosonic in town, DJ Snake may get a 2nd top 10 hit with "Middle" which hits #19 this week. A big effect on the chart is seen with the aftermath of the 2015 ARIA Awards, with many of the performing artists re-entering the charts. Most notably, Hall of Fame inductee Tina Arena did a performance of her 1994 smash "Chains" alongside Jessica Mauboy & The Veronicas, and a studio recording of it comes in at #14. "Uptown Funk" climbs back into the top 50 for a 53rd non-consecutive week, which gives it the tied record with Bruce Springsteen & LMFAO. It may very well best both of them next week.

On the album chart, Adele still commands a huge lead as she nearly does platinum figures again this week. She may face competition next week from Coldplay who briefly knocked her off #1 on the album chart. Troye Sivan's EP hit #1 earlier this year but he'll be lucky to even land at #3 this week with his album due to just how tight the competition is.

With no surprise, Justin Bieber gets his 2nd #1 single with "Love Yourself". A position it looks likely to hold for a while as there's no real competition unless Adele regains momentum. DJ Snake has recently been in the country and this week gets his second ever top 10 hit after "Lean On" (both "Turn Down For What" & "You Know You Like It" barely missed the top 10). Getting a 4th top 10 hit are one of the highest selling groups of the last 10 years here, Hilltop Hoods, who have had a top 10 hit on every album they've put out since 2009. Sigala narrowly misses out on getting his first, but "Sweet Lovin'" looks to climb there next week anyhow, provided his streams are counted (which they egregiously weren't for "Easy Love"). Marcus Marr & Chet Faker should probably be back in the top 10, but in a classic silly chart mishap, the sales of their newly released EP have been counted separately so that is sitting inside the top 50 while "The Trouble With Us" drops. Coldplay's album release gets "Adventure Of A Lifetime" into the top 20, and being promoted on the iTunes frontpage has sent Lost Frequencies from nowhere to finally hitting the top 40 with "Reality".

On the album chart, Adele is #1 for a 3rd week which means that Coldplay have missed #1 for only the second time ("Parachutes" also peaked at #2). As predicted, the heavy sales climate means that Troye Sivan can only reach #6 with his debut album. But if it helps him pick up more overall sales it's probably a good move. An example of a bad move would be from whoever decided to put X Factor winner Cyrus's debut album out on a Wednesday, wasting all the pre-order sales on a week with only 2 days to pick up new sales. As such he only comes in at #14 so unless he climbs, he'll be the first X Factor winner this decade to miss the top 10.

Pretty uneventful week as the Christmas period slows everything down. Justin Bieber is #1 for a second week with "Love Yourself", and DJ Snake cracks the top 5 with "Middle". US top 10 hits "Ex's & Oh's" and "Here" belatedly crack the top 50 this week, and lower down we get the first of two covers of the same Tracy Chapman song that are doing the rounds at the moment. The original may even soon be back in the charts. Long running hit "Uptown Funk" is of course back in its 54th week in the top 50, a new outright record and not even necessarily due to streaming (which is actually pushing it down at the moment). Next week's album chart will be a tense battle to see if Adele can end Michael Buble's annual stranglehold on the album chart.

Was Ocean Drive a huge hit everywhere apart from the uk?!

The US doesn't get ANY Duke Dumont as far as I'm aware. "I Got U" did get some minor AirPlay but that's it.

The top of the chart continues to be a Justin & Adele affair, though perhaps the surprising outcome of that is that streaming helps push Sorry back to #2, it's only ever been at #2 or #3 in all of its run so far. There was actually though a brief disruption for Bieber on the iTunes chart this past week, as the big mover of the week from Jonas Blue briefly topped the chart there. Streaming actually possibly prevented him from being #2 this week. What's particularly notable about that entry is that it's a cover of the Tracy Chapman song, but it's not the only one, in fact because Australian radio can't seem to make up their mind, there are actually TWO covers of "Fast Car" in the top 40 this week. Both are tropical house, but can be distinguished the vocals on Jonas Blue's being huskier, and Tobtok's being a bit jumpier (~~and better~~). It would seem Tobtok released his first, but Jonas Blue has a bigger label behind him which is possibly why his is doing better. Because of all this, Tracy Chapman's song even gets a re-entry. Perhaps due to the way the week lined up this year, Christmas has a lessened impact this year. Mariah only gets to #17 after getting to #14 last year, and Wham! don't re-enter this time so there's only 1 Christmas track in the chart (though I do think Michael Buble was omitted from the chart as he's around #30 on streaming alone).

Speaking of Michael Buble, for the first time since it was released, "Christmas" fails to return to #1 for the holiday season. It's still selling like hotcakes, but there's not much you can do when Adele's holding the throne. Surprisingly to me, X Factor's 3rd place getters Jess & Matt surge up the chart to #9, matching the peak of the actual winner Cyrus. You can probably expect Adele & Justin Bieber to dominate the top 2 for a while now, I think the next likely contender for the top 2 is RÜFÜS but they're not releasing for another 4 weeks. Because he decided to release it in December, Chris Brown's new album is his first to miss the top 10 since "Graffiti" which was also released in December.

Also that wraps up 2015's charts! I've been doing this for about a year and would like to thank everyone who reads this because it makes this feel worthwhile doing. I think I'll start a new thread for the 2016 charts, but also I'll stick the Year End Singles & Album charts in this thread when they're revealed. That will probably be in a week or so.

Thanks for posting this Dircadirca, I've really enjoyed looking at the charts and commentary!

Conrad's Who You Lovin has had a really strange run, constantly up and down. Glad it's remained relatively consistent though seeing as it's not been able to come close to the peak of Start Again.

Great that "The Trouble With Us" has managed a fair amount of success here <3

I DIED at Disturbed.

That is interesting to see WSTRN doing well abroad, seemed like the sort of thing that would remain firmly a UK only sort of success. Good for them.

Unsurprisingly, for the 2nd year in a row we have the hangover hit from December of the previous year that has hung around all year to get the top spot. This also means we've had the same #1 as the US & UK for 2 years in a row as well. In fact, the entire top 7 this year is a slight re-arrangement of the UK's top 7! The decrease in sales during the year is made apparent with earlier hits largely represented well. I don't think you'd expect "FourFiveSeconds" in the top 10 otherwise, though it does mean Kanye West finally has a year end top 10 hit

On the album chart, Adele prevents Ed Sheeran from being #1 for a second year in a row. For the first time ever, Michael Buble's "Christmas" improves upon its year end position. It has been top 10 5 years in a row now.
