Gavin Ryan's Chart Commentary

(Thanks to Gavin Ryan)

 

Jason DeRulo exits the Top 10 this week with his first ARIA Singles

Chart hit, the No.5 track "Whatcha Say" (DL: 8 to 12), but compensates its

fall by debuting at No.1 with his new single "In My Head" (DL: 1 debut). It

becomes the 960th No.1 single in Australia, and the first time Warner

Brothers and the label that both Iyaz and Jason are on (Beluga Heights) have

swapped over the No.1 position in Australia. Jason's single becomes Warner

Brothers' twelfth chart-topping single in Australia since Allan Sherman

scored the first back in 1963.

 

"In My Head" is the third track to feature the word 'head' in its title,

and the fifth 'in my' to make it to the top of the charts. Jason DeRulo is

the 271st American solo Male Artist to make it to No.1, and the 628th

American Performer to top our charts. The song also becomes the 89th song to

debut at the No.1 spot, Vanessa Amorosi's "This is Who I Am" being the last

such debut. This song has surpassed its peaks in other countries, having

reached No.9 in the US, No.5 in Canada and No.3 in New Zealand.

 

Iyaz and his track "Replay" (DL: 1 to 2) falls to No.2 after two weeks

at the top, and Owl City and their former chart-topper "Fireflies" (DL: 2 to

4) breaks away from its two week stay at No.2 by falling to No.4. Last

week's big new entry by Taylor Swift "Today Was a Fairytale" (DL: 5 to 3) is

up three places to No.3. Also last week David Guetta with Kid Cudi on

"Memories" (DL: 3 to 6) and Ke$ha's "Blah Blah Blah" (DL: 4 to 8, Phys: 15

debut) peaked at No.4 and No.3 respectively, but due to four entries to the

Top 10 are pushed down to No.6 and No.7 respectively (again). And the final

remnant of last weeks Top 10 to hold inside the Top 10 is Jay Sean's "Do You

Remember" (DL: 9 hold) which falls from it's No.7 peak to No.10.

 

The Midnight Beast and their parody of "Tik Tok" (DL: 15 to 5) replaces

that song in the Top 10 by jumping up nine places to No.5, whilst the

original falls six places to No.11. With Rihanna in the country doing a

promotional visit this past week, her latest track "Rude Boy" (DL: 17 to 7)

jumps up nine places to give her back-to-back Top 10 singles from her "Rated

R" album (up 14 places to No.21 this week). And the second biggest climber

of the week is an artist who has graced our charts before as a part of her

former girl group Girls Aloud, but this week scores her first ever Top 10

single, Cheryl Cole is up sixteen places to No.8 with "3 Words" (DL: 24 to

11), also putting Black Eyed Peas member Will.i.am back into the Top 10

also.

 

NEW PEAKS: Gabriella Cilmi does a similar feat to her first singles chart

run, moving up only slightly before a big jump next week, as "On a Mission"

(DL: 18 to 15, Phys: 43 debut) is up to No.16 this week. Pitbull scores his

fourth Top 50 entry by scoring the biggest leaping track of the week, up

nineteen places to No.37 with "Shut it Down" (DL: 38 debut), and also

breaking into the Top 50 are future tourist John Mayer with "Heartbreak

Warfare", up nine places to No.46 and recent tourists Florence + The Machine

score their first EVER Top 50 single by moving up to No.50 with "You've Got

the Love".

 

The January 12th Haiti earthquake has spurned two songs covered by

multiple artists, both of which debut this week on the charts. Debuting at

No.18 (DL: 17 debut) is "We Are the World 25: For Haiti", a remake of the

1985 famine relief song written by Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson which

hit No.1 in April 1985. Featured artists on this new version include Michael

and Janet Jackson, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Hudson, Josh Groban, Tony

Bennett, Mary J. Blige, Barbra Streisand, Miley Cyrus, Enrique Iglesias,

Wyclef Jean, P!nk, Usher, Celine Dion, Fergie, Toni Braxton, Carlos Santana

and Kanye West amongst others. The track recently debuted at No.2 in the US

Charts.

 

The second Haiti relief song is a cover of REM's 1993 single "Everybody

Hurts" (DL: 33 debut, Phys: 1 debut) performed by a collective calling

themselves Helping Haiti. British Prime Minister Gordon Brown asked Simon

Cowell to arrange a charity single to raise money for Haiti. The track has

already reached No.1 in England and Ireland, and debuts at No.26 here. This

version features vocals from Leona Lewis, Rod Stewart, Mariah Carey, Mika,

Michael Buble, Jon Bon Jovi, Susan Boyle, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams and

Chrissie Hynde amongst other artists.

 

Michael Buble's "Haven't Met You Yet" (DL: 11 to 19) was possibly helped

into the Top 10 a couple of weeks ago by being used in the Channel 7 promo's

for the then upcoming 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada. Well the

opening ceremony last weekend featured a stirring rendition of Leonard

Cohen's "Hallelujah" (DL: 28 debut) performed by Canadian native k.d. Lang

which this week enters the charts at No.19. Last week her best of

"Recollections" entered at No.56, but this week jumps up to No.3, and this

becomes her first charting single this century, having last appeared on the

charts in December 1997 with her 1997 Australian Tour EP, which hit No.70.

She did chart with this song in April of 2008, but that was only on the

digital charts where it hit No.47.

 

Alicia Keys hit No.96 in late December of 2009 with the first single

from her "The Elements of Freedom" (No.35 this week) album, and this week

she debuts at No.42 with "Put it in a Love Song" (DL: 45 to 35) featuring

guest vocals from Beyonce. She is also currently on the charts with Jay-Z as

guest vocalist on "Empire State of Mind" (DL: 10 to 14) which leaves the Top

10 this week and is sitting at No.15.

 

Below Top 50:

 

Only two new peaks below the Top 50 this week, k-os is up to No.59 with

"I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman (Can't Really Make You Love Me)", and

re-entering at No.90 and at the same time scoring a new peak is Miami Horror

and their track "Sometimes".

 

Timbaland debuts at No.62 with the second single from his "Shock Value

II" album (No.61 this week) entitled "If We Ever Meet Again", this one

featuring guest vocals from Katy Perry. Chris Brown also enters with the

second single from his latest album "Graffiti" (No.96 this week) called

"Crawl", which is in at No.67. The third R&B act below the Top 50 to debut

this week is T-Pain at No.82 with "Take Your Shirt Off".

 

Two artists who haven't been on the charts for a couple of years, make

debuts back to back this week. Train are in at No.72 with "Hey, Soul

Sister", their last chart appearance being 2003's "Calling All Angels" which

hit No.22, and this becomes their sixth charting single. Australian group

Operator Please returns to the charts after almost two years absence with

"Logic" debuting at No.73. They last hit No.93 in July 2008 with "Two for My

Seconds", and this new track is the fifth Top 100 entry.

 

Lady GaGa is at No.95 with "Just Dance" in its 78th week in the Top 100,

one week away from tying the 79 week record set by Justin Timberlake's

"SexyBack". We'll have to wait to see if it holds on for another week. Also

mention should go to The Black Eyed Peas who fall to No.21 this week with

"Rock That Body", making it 46 weeks in the Top 20 for the group ("Boom Boom

Pow" debuted April 6th, 2009), although will.i.am does appear on Cheryl

Cole's new track which jumps into the Top 10 this week.

 

Mumford and Sons hold for a second week at the No.1 spot on the ARIA

Albums Chart with their "Sigh No More" album, whilst Susan Boyle starts her

run at No.2 with her "I Dreamed a Dream" album, now in its second week at

that position.

 

k.d. Lang has a long running career in this country for her album

releases, and her first best of set "Recollections" charges from last weeks

debut of No.56 up to No.3 this week. Helped by her performance at the

opening ceremony of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics with her rendition of

"Hallelujah", which also enters the singles chart at No.19 this week.

 

Sade debuts at No.4 with their sixth studio album "Soldier of Love", and

their first chart entry since nine years, having last appeared on the charts

in late February 2001 with the No.28 album "Lovers Rock". And by debuting at

No.4 (the same entry position they made in the UK last week), this becomes

their highest ever placed album on the Australian charts, having peaked at

No.6 in early 1985 with their debut album "Diamond Life" which was followed

in late 1985 by their second Top 10 set "Promise". Since then they have not

graced our Top 10, until this week, just over twenty-five years later.

 

AC/DC's tour has helped their ARIA Award winning album "Black Ice" to

leap up twelve places to No.11. Their first collection of older tracks

"Backtracks" is up twenty-two places to No.36, their first live album "Live"

is up forty-three places to No.46, and their first No.1 album from 1980

"Back in Black" also climbs twenty-two places to No.57, and lastly they

re-enter at No.97 with "The Razors Edge", their 1990 No.3 album.

 

Other recent and future tourists benefit on the ARIA Albums Charts this

week. Recent tourist Rob Thomas is up four places to No.13 with his

'cradlesong' album. Future tourist John Mayer's "Battle Studies" is up eight

places to No.20. Last week Rihanna did a promo tour, and that has helped her

"Rated R" album to climb up fourteen places to No.21. Phoenix climb

thirty-five places to No.40 with "Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix". George Michael

re-enters at No.49 with the tour edition of "Twenty-Five", and Gossip jump

up twenty places to No.51 with their "Music for Men" album. Also recent

tourist Cliff Richard is back in the charts at No.63 with his former

partners The Shadows on "Reunited". And not a tourist, but currently playing

around the country, the "Valentines Day" soundtrack jumps up fifty-three

places to No.41.

 

Fear Factory's seventh album "Mechanize" debuts at No.24, two places

higher than the entry position of their 2005 album "Transgression". Also

charting with their seventh album is Finnish band HIM and debuting at No.36

with "Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice". This is their fourth Top 50

entry, and is now their second highest charting album behind 2007's "Venus

Doom" which peaked at No.32.

 

Other new entries to the album chart include Peter Gabriel in at No.59

with his eighth studio album "Scratch My Back", and his first since 2002's

"Up". Story of the Year enter at No.88 with their album "The Constant". And

lastly Lady Antebellum enter at No.93 with their new album "Need You Now".

 

'TiK ToK' parody doing well. It's like The Lonely Island with two successive Top 15's. :lol:
