March 14, 201015 yr Author Gavin Ryan Chart Commentary (Thanks to Gavin Ryan) Rihanna holds for a second week at No.1 in Australia with the single "Rude Boy" (DL: 1 hold), and we're still the only country in the world to put it at the top of the charts, with UK being the closest other placing at No.2 this week. But her run could be taken off the rails by the song that leaps up five places to No.2 this week, Train's "Hey, Soul Sister" (DL: 7 to 2). It sitting at No.1 in The Netherlands for a second week, and is at No.3 in New Zealand, but also gives the group their best charting placing in Australia ever, eclipsing "Drops of Jupiter" which hit No.5 in 2001, and re-enters the chart this week at No.95. (Drops is also used in "All About Steve", Sandra Bullock's new film which came out on DVD this week {and won her a Razzy award too} so that could also be a factor for its re-entry). With Train jumping up, it pushes Jason DeRulo's "In My Head" (DL: 2 to 3) down to No.3 and David Guetta's "Memories" (DL: 5 to 4) to No.4, but holding steady are Owl City with "Fireflies" (DL: 4 to 5) and Iyaz with "Replay" (DL: 6 hold) at No.5 and No.6 respectively. Last week's peak of No.4 for The Midnight Beast and their version of "Tik Tok" (DL: 3 to 7) is down three places to No.7, and holding steady is the rest of the Top 10, with Ke$ha's "Blah Blah Blah" at No.8 (DL: 11 to 10, Phys: 8 to 5), Cheryl Cole's "3 Words" (DL: 8 hold) at No.9 and Taylor Swift's "Today Was a Fairytale" (DL: 9 hold) rounding out at No.10. NEW PEAKS: Timbaland and Katy Perry move up to No.14 with "If We Ever Meet Again" (DL: 18 to 13), The Black Eyed Peas climbs thirteen places to No.17 with "Imma Be" (DL: 28 to 15) and Pitbull scores his third successive Top 20 single as "Shut it Down" (DL: 23 to 18) is up four places to No.18. Beyonce's duet with Lady GaGa on "Telephone" (DL: 10 to 11) holds steady at No.11, but her teaming on Alicia Keys' track "Put it in a Love Song" (DL: 21 to 19) is up to No.22, and Justin Bieber is up nine places to No.24 with "Baby" (DL: 32 to 24), his highest placing for any of his songs. In the country the past week, American Idol runner-up for 2009 Adam Lambert is up sixty-one places to No.26 with his first ARIA Chart entry, "Whataya Want from Me" (DL: 26 debut). Jay-Z is up seven places to No.32 with "Young Forever" (DL: 37 to 33) and right behind him at re-peaking at No.33 is Mumford & Sons with "The Cave" (DL: 34 hold). Halving last week's position is Avril Lavigne and her new track "Alice" (DL: 38 debut) at No.39, up thirty-nine places from last weeks No.78 debut. Also breaking into the Top 50 (and the first time in almost five years) are Lifehouse with their latest track "Halfway Gone", which is up sixteen places to No.47. Miley Cyrus lands the highest new entry of the week (and highest placing in the world too) by debuting at No.50 with "When I Look at You", the second single from her "The Time of Our Lives" album (No.98 this week), and also the first single from her latest film 'The Last Song', which also features tracks by OneRepublic, Eskimo Joe and Maroon 5. The movie is expected to be released here for the Easter school holidays in April. Miley also re-enters at No.98 with "The Climb", now in it's 46th week in the Top 100. Below Top 50: New peaking tracks below the Top 50 include the new single for Rob Thomas, "Mockingbird", which is up twelve places to No.61. T-Pain is up a couple of places again with "Take Your Shirt Off", now at No.74, and Guy Sebastian jumps seventeen places with his new Motown inspired single "All to Myself", up to No.75 this week. Two acts who are in the country also score new jumps, but not new peaks. LMFAO are touring at the moment, and their teaming with Chuckie D re-enters at No.56, and Kelly Rowland is also visiting our shores, and her teaming with David Guetta on "When Love Takes Over" was performed on 'So You Think You Can Dance' on Thursday night, and this week jumps back up the charts twenty-three places to No.58. Three local acts score the remaining of the new entries this week, with The Hilltop Hoods debuting at No.62 with "The Light You Burned", the third single from their "State of the Art" album. Also the third single from The Temper Traps "Conditions" album (No.20 this week) is "Love Lost", which enters at No.71 this week. Lastly Bluejuice enter at No.82 with their second single "Ain't Telling the Truth". Lady GaGa holds on for an 81st week in the Top 100 with "Just Dance", now the longest charting single in ARIA history, and with "Poker Face" at No.60 in it's 77th week in the Top 100 now makes it the third longest running single, eclipsing The Presets and their 76 week running hit "My People". Also Beyonce's "Single Ladies" is spending it's 69th week in the Top 100, and moves into the Top 10 now, so here's a list of how the 'Longest Charting Top 100 entries' looks now: No.|WI|Pos|Year|Title-Artist 01|81|01|2008|Just Dance - Lady GaGa 02|79|01|2006|SexyBack - Justin Timberlake 03|77|01|2008|Poker Face - Lady GaGa 04|76|14|2007|My People - The Preets 05|73|24|2006|I Love it - Sneaky Sound System 06|72|01|2007|Straight Lines - Silverchair 07|72|01|2008|Low - Flo Rida 08|69|05|2008|Single Ladies - Beyonce 09|68|01|2006|Flaunt it - TV Rock 10|68|04|1998|Second Solution / Prisoner of Society - The Living End 11|68|06|2006|Black Fingernails Red Wine - Eskimo Joe Blur frontman Damon Albarn only ever managed a No.10 album with his first group in the form of "The Great Escape" (1995), then his side-project Gorillaz took their second album "Demon Days" to No.2, and now Damon and his current incarnation debut at the top of the album charts with their third album "Plastic Beach". This latest No.1 is the 608th chart-topping album in the country (1965-2010), and the first to feature 'plastic' in its title. The word 'beach' has appeared twice before, Australian Crawl being the first in 1982 with "Sons of Beaches" and then the soundtrack to "Beaches" in June 1989 was the last such No.1 beaching. Gorillaz are the 59th English act to hit the top of our charts with the 123rd No.1 by English based performer. They are also the 32nd English Group and 291st Group to land a No.1 album here in Australia. With Gorillaz debuting at the top, it pushes k.d. Lang's "Recollection" set off the top after only one week (her other chart-topper also only lasted one week) and down to No.3, with Mumford and Sons staying put at No.2, giving us two English groups at the top charts this week. Jason DeRulo debuts at No.4 with his self-titled album, featuring the two single "Whatcha Say" (No.21 this week) and the former No.1 single "In My Head" (No.3 this week), plus future single "Ridin' Solo" which enters the digital charts at No.20 this week. With the two big debuts, it pushes older albums down the charts, with Susan Boyle down two places to No.5 (her biggest drop so far), and Lady GaGa's "The Fame Monster" is also down two places to No.6. Current tourist David Guetta is stable at No.7 with his "One Love" album, whilst recent tourist Taylor Swift is down three places to No.8 with her album "Fearless". Rounding out the Top 10 are Michael Buble's "Crazy Love" at No.9 and The Black Eyed Peas climb back up one place with "The E.N.D." landing at No.10 this week. With Adam Lambert in the country the past week, it has not only helped his single "Whataya Want from Me" jump up sixty-one places to No.26, but his debut album "For You Entertainment" debuts at No.18 this week. Right behind him is another debut from local rock act Airbourne and their second album "No Guts. No Glory". By debuting at No.19 they beat the No.21 peak of their debut set "Runnin' Wild". Jumping up fourteen places to No.25 is Michael Buble's self-titled debut album, and in anticipation of their second album, Angus & Julia Stone's debut album "A Book Like This" is up eight places to No.26. Jazz chanteuse Melody Gardot is touring the country at the moment, and her former No.23 album "My One and Only Thrill" jumps up forty-five places to No.28 this week. Taylor Swift's self-titled album is up to a new peak of No.33, up twenty-two places, and climbing up forty-seven places to No.34 is the long-charting "Greatest Hits" collection from Guns N' Roses. Up thirty-six places is Diana Krall's "Quiet Nights" set to No.35, and with Michael Jackson's "This is it" music documentary released to DVD last week, it has helped a couple of his compilations to climb, with "Essential Michael Jackson" up twenty-three places to No.38 and "#1's" is up twenty-seven places to No.43.
March 14, 201015 yr The first thing that I don't like in ARIA charts is a lack of their homegrown artists. The highest Aussie entry is at #27 (!!!). Its population isn't that small that the chart is flooded by mostly American artists mixed with the couple of European (including UK).

Australia isn't really famous for homegrown music isn't it? :lol: I was shocked when Gabriella didn't reach the top ten with On a Mission. Edited March 14, 201015 yr by Tacticz
