Singles

 

For a third week, Taio Cruz is blowing up the No.1 spot with his second single "Dynamite" (DL: 1 hold), now claiming a platinum sales certification in the process. In fact whilst the Top 4 stay stable this week, the Top 3 are all now platinum selling tracks, with Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" (DL: 2 hold) at No.2 and Eminem and Rihanna's former chart-topper "Love the Way You Lie" (DL: 3 hold) holding at No.3 (this one is now 3xPlatinum). For a fourth week Flo Rida and David Guetta are holding the No.4 position with their track from Step Up 3D, "Club Can't Handle Me" (DL: 4 hold), and moving back up to No.5 for a fourth time is Usher and Pitbull on "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" (DL: 6 to 5, Phys: 11 to 13), both No.4 and No.5 having previously peaked at No.3.

 

Ke$ha drops back a place from her peak of No.5 last week, to No.6 this week with "Take it Off" (DL: 5 to 6). Last week's highest new entry is one of the two new Top 10 entries this week, Good Charlotte score their third Top 10 entry as "Like it's Her Birthday" (DL: 17 to 7) is up ten places to No.7 this week. That other Top 10 entrant is Cee-Lo Green's "F.U." (DL: 25 to 9), which leaps up seventeen places to land at No.9. In between these two, hitting a new peak, is last weeks top ten entrant, Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are" (DL: 9 to 8) is up two places to No.8, and keeping hold on the edge of the Top 10 at No.10 is Adam Lambert with "If I Had You" (DL: 10 to 11, Phys: 16 to 23).

 

NEW PEAKS: Mike Posner is "Cooler Than Me" (DL: 14 hold) this week at No.13, moving up one place, and B.o.B and Rivers Cuomo are up three places to No.15 with their track "Magic" (DL: 18 to 15). Further down the chart, after bobbing around the lower 50 for several weeks Little Red zoom up twenty-one places for the biggest leap within the Top 50 on their track "Rock It" (DL: 48 to 27), now up to No.28. Lady Antebellum jump up ten places to land three places behind their former No.27 peak, this week their "Need You Now" (DL: 40 to 31) is at No.30. The equal biggest Top 100 leap comes from local dance artist Zoe Badwi, she's up twenty-three places to No.36 with her track "Freefallin'" (DL: 34 debut). The other local act that scores a new peak is Bliss N' Eso with their latest single "Addicted" (DL: 43 to 38), up four places to No.41.

 

Debuting at No.24 this week is a 2000's stalwart making his first chart appearance this decade. Nelly enters at No.24 with his new track "Just a Dream" (DL: 23 debut), taken from his forthcoming sixth studio album "Nelly 5.0" (due November). This is his 23rd charting single here, and his first since September 2008’s “Body on Me” (HP-32). This new track debuted at No.12 in the US last week and is inside their Top 10 at No.9 this week.

 

Liverpool trio The Wombats score their second chart entry to the ARIA Singles Chart and also their first Top 40 entry, as the title track from their November due second album debuts at No.35, entitled "Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)" (DL: 33 debut). Their previous charting single here was “Let’s Dance to Joy Division” (HP-76) from February 2008.

 

The third Top 50 entry of the week comes from the winners of the fourth series of 'Australia's Got Talent', dance (and now singing) troupe Justice Crew. The nine man group won the series back in June and put their winnings into the group's career, being signed by Sony Music in August. They enter at No.46 with their debut single "And Then We Dance" (Phys: 1 debut). The only other winner from the show to have made the charts so far is last year’s winner, Mark Vincent who has taken his two albums into the Top 10.

 

Below Top 50: The Potbelleez are again set to enter the Top 50 next week, as their track "Hello" climbs to a new peak of No.51 this week. Brian McFadden and Delta Goodrem's duet "Mistakes" climbs to a new peak of No.75, and the other biggest leap of the week goes to Alexandra Burke and Pitbull, who also leap twenty-three places, up to No.76 with "All Night Long".

 

Robbie Williams is releasing his second greatest hits collection entitled "In and Out of Consciousness: The Greatest Hits 1990-2010" in early October. The first track from that set is something of a rarity, a duet between Robbie and former Take That lead singer Gary Barlow, a kiss-and-make-up song between the two entitled "Shame", which debuts at No.62 this week. It becomes Robbie's 27th charting single, and his second for this year, his “Do You Mind?” single hitting No.98 in mid April. Check out their reunion clip here:

 

UK rapper of Ghanaian descent Lethal Bizzle debuts at No.67 with his first ARIA Singles Chart entry, the rap/dance track "Go Go Go", featuring Nick Bridges (one half of dance act Bodyrox {“Yeah Yeah” HP-39, Jan 2007}) and Luciana (from the dance track "I Like That"). It's his eleventh UK single, and the seventh to hit their charts, with this track currently climbing the UK Dance Charts.

 

Local singer CC Martini is now based in the US writing new material, but her current single "Double Dutch" has been used to promote the new Go!! Channel TV Series about cheerleaders called 'Hellcats', which premiers this week. The show has helped the track to debut at No.93 this week, giving her a second chart entry, as she previously charted in November 2007 with “Champagne Taste” (HP-68).

 

Lastly is a new entry at No.100 for Moldovan singer Dan Balan with his track "Chica Bomb". Dan was in the vocal/pop trio O-Zone who had hits across Europe in the late 90's and early 2000's, before he moved onto a solo career in the mid-2000's. This track has landed at No.1 in Greece, and is currently Top 50 in Germany, England and Denmark.

 

Last week I mentioned Lady GaGa hitting 100 weeks in the Top 100 with her track “Poker Face” (101st week this week), but scoring their 100th week in the Physical Chart Top 50 is the self-titled EP for Tame Impala.

 

Albums

 

Katy Perry keeps her hold of the No.1 position on the ARIA Albums Chart for a second week with her "Teenage Dream" set. But moving back up behind her is the former chart-topper, Eminem's "Recovery", back up two places this week to No.2. It swap places with last weeks No.2 debut for Disturbed, "Asylum", which is down to No.4 this week. In between those two swap-arounds, Jimmy Barnes holds at No.3 with his latest set "Rage & Ruin".

 

The lower part of the Top 10 sees all local acts holding court, with Angus & Julia Stone climbing back up two places to No.7, pushing Bliss N' Eso down one place to No.8 with their former No.1 "Running on Air", and Washington down a spot to No.9 with "I Believe You Liar". Rejoining the Top 10 at No.10 are Birds of Tokyo with their self-titled album.

 

Two new albums enter in the centre of the Top 10 this week, with The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers scoring the highest new entry at No.5 with his debut solo set entitled "Flamingo". The albums lead single "Crossfire" is at No.53 this week, having already peaked at No.46 three weeks ago. The output from his group The Killers is listed below...

American alternative metal band Stone Sour land at No.6 with their third album called "Audio Secrecy". It also becomes their first Top 10 entry here, beating the No.21 peak of their August 2006 set "Come What(ever) May", whilst their first album "Stone Sour" never made it onto the charts here.

 

Climbing twenty-two places to a new peak of No.12 is Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now". Train climb back up nine places to No.14 with their album "Save Me, San Francisco", and the third repackaging of Usher's "Raymond V. Raymond" helps that set to climb back up seven places to No.19.

 

30 Seconds to Mars climbs a single place to gain a new peak of No.21 with their album "This is War". Melinda Schneider also climbs, and she is up three places to a new peak of No.24 with her album "Melinda Does Doris". Lastly, Jason DeRulo's self titled album jumps back up twelve places to land at No.40 this week.

 

Local act Blue King Brown recently started their national tour, and their late August released album "Worldwize Part 1 - North & South" (previous HP-74) re-enters and scores a new peak instantly at No.44 this week. Whilst another local act, Melbourne death metal band The Red Shore take their second album "The Avarice of Man" into the charts at No.54. The two previous chart entries have been “Unconsecrated” (HP-63, Nov 2008) and the compilation album “Lost Verses” (HP-91, May 2009).
