Singles

 

Five weeks and rolling for Adele’s “Someone Like You”, which now becomes the equal second longest running No.1 single for 2011, matching the five weeks spent at the top by Rihanna’s “S&M” (Feb and March). She also remains within the Top 5 as her first single (here) “Rolling in the Deep” drops back from four to No.5, giving it ten weeks within the Top 5 and twelve weeks in the Top 10. “Someone Like You” and its parent album “21” also stay astride both ARIA Charts this week, making it five weeks of Adele domination. The last time an act and its accompanying album spent this long at the top was over ten years ago when “Can’t Fight the Moonlight” for LeAnn Rimes and the soundtrack “Coyote Ugly” were atop for six weeks from late January 2001.

 

Lady GaGa scores a fourth No.2 single, as last weeks bullet for “The Edge of Glory” continues, the track rising from No.6 to No.2 this week. Her three former number two’s were “Paparazzi” (3 weeks, July 2009), “Bad Romance” (2 weeks, Dec 2009) and “Alejandro” (1 week, May 2010). So GaGa’s rises pushes down Christina Perri’s “Jar of Hearts” to No.3 after one week at No.2, and that continues with the rest of last weeks top four all falling down one place. “Party Rock Anthem” is now at No.4, and as I mentioned above, Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” is at No.5.

 

The other bullet inside the Top 10 this week is Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera’s “Moves Like Jagger”, which is up four places to No.6. Pitbull falls two places to No.7 with “Give Me Everything”, Bruno Mars re-peaks at No.8 with “Marry You”, and down two places each are Katy Perry’s “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” to No.9 and “Don’t Wanna Go Home” for Jason DeRulo to No.10.

 

NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: Nicki Minaj still keeps her “Super Bass” holding at No.11 this week, but there are five new peaks within the Top 20 section of the chart this week. Last weeks highest new entry is the biggest jumper within the Top 50, and also the new highest placed local act; Gotye with Kimbra on his new track “Somebody That I Used to Know” leap up fifteen places to No.12. Nicole Scherzinger is up six places to No.14 on her new track “Right Here”, now her highest placed solo single. Example scores his first Top 20 here, as “Changed the Way You Kiss Me” is up seven places to No.16, “Lighters” for Bad Meets Evil feat. Bruno Mars” is up to places to No.17 and scoring a second Top 20 entry from her new album “4” is Beyonce with “Best Thing I Never Had”, which is up seven places to No.18.

Calvin Harris and Kelis bound up six places to No.24 on his new track “Bounce”, and another pair in Chris Brown and Justin Bieber climbs up three places to a new peak of No.26 with “Next 2 You”. Four weeks ago Britney Spears debuted at No.33 with her new track “I Wanna Go”, which this week is up four places to No.31. And another track that rebounds is Pitbull and Marc Anthony on “Rain Over Me”, which jumps back up the charts twenty places to No.34 (former peak was No.29).

Canada’s These Kids Wear Crowns make a jump into the Top 50 at No.39, up twenty-five places for their track “Jumpstart”. Aloe Blacc beats his former No.50 peak for “I Need a Dollar”, which this week re-enters the Top 50 at No.40. Snoop Dogg climbs two places to No.42 with his Yazoo infused track “Boom”, LMFAO are up a place to a new peak of No.44 for “Sexy and I Know it”, whilst Adele’s “Set Fire to the Rain” climbs five places to No.45. The last new peak within the Top 50 this week comes from Romania’s Alexandra Stan, who is up seven places to No.49 with her debut single here “Mr. Saxobeat”.

 

American pop-punk band Blink-182 return to the ARIA Singles Chart for the first time in six-and-a-half years (January 2005 last chart appearance) by debuting at No.30 with the single “Up All Night”, the first single to be lifted from their late September due sixth studio album entitled “Neighborhoods”. That last chart hit for them was “Always” (HP-45, Nov 2004), and this new track becomes their sixteenth chart entry in Australia, plus their twelfth Top 50 hit, but it’s only the second time in their chart career that they have scored the highest new entry of the week, the other was February 2004’s “I Miss You” (HP-13, Gold certification) which is their second highest charting single behind “All the Small Things” (HP-8, Platinum certification, peaked in April 2000).

 

Lower 50: Lupe Fiasco climbs a place to No.56 with his new single “Out of My Head”, but up fifteen places to No.57 is the new single from The Foo Fighters, “Walk”. The biggest leap within the Top 100 this week goes to Selena Gomez & The Scene for their new track “Love You Like a Love Song”, which is up thirty-one places to No.64, and the final new peak in the lower 50 is Panic at the Disco’s “Ready to Go” up to No.69.

 

The only other new entry this week is from an act that also have not graced the ARIA Charts for some time (August 2007), California’s Red Hot Chili Peppers, who debut at No.60 with “The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie”. This is the first single to be lifted from their late August due tenth studio album “I’m With You”, and this new track becomes the groups twenty seventh single to chart here, the last being “Hump de Bump” (HP-17, peaked April 2007).

 

Most of Lady GaGa’s tracks that re-entered last week continue to chart this week, all of them rising back up the charts. “Poker Face” climbs seven places to No.72; “Bad Romance” is up eight places to No.76, “Just Dance” and “Telephone” both leap up fourteen places to No.77 and No.80 respectively. An odd re-entry at No.91 is Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” (HP-4, June 1988), which recently peaked at No.4 in the UK Charts (April 2011), helped by a performance on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ by nineteen year old Michael Collings.

 

Albums

 

“21” for Adele holds onto the No.1 spot for an eleventh week, whilst she also occupies the No.3 spot with her first album “19”. The record label XL have previously had one other No.1 album with The Prodigy’s “The Fat of the Land” (1 week, July 1997), and they are one of only three independent labels who have hit the No.1 spot since the ARIA Chart began in 1988. The other two were “Smash” for The Offspring (3 weeks from early February 1995) on the Epitaph label through Shock, and then in August 2008, Whack Records through MGM landed a No.1 for Sneaky Sound System’s “2” album. So Adele’s “21” is the most successful independently distributed (through Inertia) No.1 album in ARIA Album chart history.

Plus “21” now becomes one of fourteen albums to have achieved eleven weeks at No.1, the last being Susan Boyle’s “I Dreamed a Dream” (from 30-Nov-2009), and it’s one of three albums this decade to achieve this amount at the top, the third being the “Moulin Rouge” Soundtrack from May 2001.

 

The entire Top 5 albums stay stable this week, with Lady GaGa’s “Born This Way” at No.2 again, LMFAO’s “Sorry for Party Rocking” at No.4 and last weeks leaper “lovestrong” for Christina Perri at No.5. The Foo Fighters leapt back up to No.11 last week with “Wasting Light”, which this week is up five places to No.6, whilst their Greatest Hits collection is up eight places to No.17. Bruno Mars spends his thirtieth consecutive week inside the Top 10 at No.7 with “Doo-Wops and Hooligans” (32 weeks inside Top 10 in total), Beyonce continues her two places a week drop for “4” (2-4-6-8) as it resides at No.8 this week, and Bad Meets Evil’s “Hell: The Sequel” stays put at No.9 for a fifth week in the T10.

 

Scoring the highest new entry of the week at No.10 is the seventh studio album California based rock band Incubus entitled “If Not Now, When?” It becomes their third Top 10 album and this is their first new material in almost five years. Their entire ARIA Albums Chart history is listed below…

NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: Nicki Minaj breaks into the Top 40 on the ARIA Albums Chart, as her “Pink Friday” set is up seven places to a new peak of No.36. Rise Against just finished their national tour of Australia in Perth on the 23rd of July, which has helped their album “Endgame” to rebound up the chart fourteen places to No.37 this week. Leaping forty places to No.39 is last week’s debut for the “Winners & Losers” Soundtrack.

 

The third album for US singer/songwriter Colbie Callait debuts at No.49 entitled “All of You”. Her first set “Coco” originally debuted and peaked in the charts at No.85 in August 2007, but it re-entered in early May 2008 where it peaked at No.13, thanks to the No.1 single “Bubbly” (peaked late April 2008). Her second album “Breakthrough” debuted and peaked at No.59 in September of 2009, which featured her only other charting single “Fallin’ For You” (HP-63, August 2009).

 

Lower 50: With Gotye’s first Top 50 single now his first Top 20 hit, his previously best charting album “Like Drawing Blood” (HP-36, Nov 2007), re-enters this week at No.57. The soundtrack to “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2” climbs up six places to a new peak of No.61. Local singer Abbe May is up twelve places to No.66 with her set “Design Desire”, and re-entering at No.80 and scoring a new peak in the process is the Australian Cast Recording of “Mary Poppins”.

 

Cold Chisel announced this week that they will be doing a national tour later this year, and their back catalogue is being re-issued and re-mastered for release this coming week. Their third album “East” (HP-2, 1980) re-enters this week at No.72, so expect more Cold Chisel entries over the coming weeks. Lastly another Adelaide band (like Chisel) debut at No.98, this group with their second album. Leader Cheetah enters with “Lotus Skies”, whilst their first album “The Sunspot Letters” debuted and peaked at No.64 in March 2009.
