Singles

 

Seven weeks and running now for Gotye and Kimbra on "Somebody That I Used to Know", now equalling Adele's run at the top that "Someone Like You" (TW-12, first time out of the Top 10 since it landed in their back in June) achieved before it, meaning we have only had three No.1's in the past five months, as LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" (TW-15) spent ten weeks starting in mid-April prior to Adele's run. Gotye's track becomes one of the forty-six songs that have previously achieved the seven weeks at No.1, and the sixth for this century.

 

But scoring an all time record (if it goes no higher that is) by staying at No.2 for a ninth week is Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera on "Moves like Jagger", which has not budged from the No.2 spot since the start of August. There has only ever been one previous 'nine-week-run-at-peak (non-No.1)' in the past, and that was an album, No Doubt's "Tragic Kingdom” which spent nine broken weeks at No.3, and went no higher back in March of 1997.

 

Cobra Starship again climb to a new peak with their track "You Make Me Feel", which is up a place to No.3 this week, swapping places with Jason DeRulo's "If Girl", which drops to No.4. David Guetta and Sia have already spent two weeks at No.5 with “Titanium”, and they return to that position this week, up two places, whilst David and his song "Without You" featuring Usher hold at No.10 for a third week.

 

"Cheers (Drink to that)" for Rihanna holds at No.6 for a second week, and last weeks jumper into the Top 10, "Domino" by Jessie J, slips back three places to No.8. Two songs this week leap into the Top 10, with Hot Chelle Rae now scoring their first Top 10 entry, as "Tonight Tonight" is up five places to No.7. And Gym Class Heroes score their first ever Top 10 hit in Australia, as "Stereo Hearts" leaps up twelve places to No.9. Their previous best effort was with their second single "Clothes Off!" which made it to No.11 in August of 2007.

 

NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: It's a Top 10 without any Adele tracks inside it, as "Someone like You" and "Rolling in the Deep" drop out to No.12 and No.14 respectively, but her new track looks set to be inside said Top 10 next week, as "Set Fire to the Rain" blazes up six places to No.11 this week. Entering the Top 20 for the first time are three tracks; "Fly" for Nicki Minaj and Rihanna is up five places to No.18, "Mr. Saxobeat" for Alexandra Stan is up eight spots to No.19 and leaping sixteen places to No.20 is recent promo visitors The Wanted with their track "Glad You Came". Calvin Harris edges up another two places this week to No.22 with his latest song "Feel So Close", and up three places to No.25 are Foster the People with their single "Pumped up Kicks", whilst Beyonce's "Love on Top" climbs six places to land at No.26 this week.

Back in July, LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know it" made it to No.44, spending five weeks inside the Top 50, but this week it surges back up twenty-four places to land inside the Top 40 at No.36. Entering the Top 50 for the first time is the drum'n'bass duo Nero with their second chart entry "Promises", it's up twenty places to No.38. Gavin DeGraw climbs three places to No.42 with "Not over you", and three more songs also climb into the Top 50, "In the Dark" for DEV is up six places to No.46, and Pete Murray's "Free" is up five spots to No.50.

The third of those Top 50 climbers is "Got 2 Luv U" for Sean Paul and Alexis Jordan, which leaps twenty-eight spots to No.48 to become his first solo Top 50 entry since 2006's "(When You Gonna) Give it Up to Me" (HP-17, October 2006), although he was here last year as a guest vocalist on Jay Sean's "Do You Remember" (HP-7, peaked Feb 2010).

 

Lower 50: Example could score a second Top 50 hit next week, as his latest single "Stay Awake" is up fifteen places to No.51. Another British white DJ and rapper, Ed Sheeran jumps twenty-four places to No.57 with his track "The A Team", and Cold Chisel's "All For You" is the only other peaking track, it's up to No.80 this week. And leaping back up thirty-five places to No.62 is "Endless Summer" for local act The Jezabels, helped by their debut album scoring the highest new entry of the week, and this effect also helps Lady Antebellum's "Just a Kiss" to re-enter at No.83, as their new album also debuts high.

 

Last year Flo Rida released the album "Only One Flo", which featured the single "Club Can't Handle it" (HP-3), "Turn Around (5,4,3,2,1) (HP-12) and "Who Dat Girl" (HP-10). He is set to release "Only One Flo (Part 2)" before the end of the year, and the first single from that new set is the highest new entry of the week, "Good Feeling" debuts at No.53, the song already a Top 10 hit in New Zealand and Sweden, and it features a sample of the Etta James "Something's Got a Hold on Me" (1962).

 

The second album for Florence + the Machine entitled "Ceremonials" is due at the end of October, and the second single to be lifted from the album debuts at No.58 called "Shake it out". The first single from the new set was "What the Water Gave Me" (HP-35, Sept 2011, TW-70), and they are currently charting with two older songs, "Dog Days are Over" (TW-61) and "You've Got the Love" (TW-81).

 

Timbaland is set to release his "Shock Value III" album in November and the first single from it debuts at No.89 entitled "Pass at me", and features guest vocalist Pitbull. And scoring their second ARIA Singles Chart entry are the New Boyz at No.90 with "Better with the Lights off" featuring guest vocals by Chris Brown. Their first entry here was "Backseat" (HP-89) in April of this year.

 

Tony Bennett's "Duets 2" is released this week, and from that new set, and debuting at No.97, is his duet with Amy Winehouse "Body and Soul", supposedly her final recording. This is the first time since 1995 that Tony has scored an entry on the Australian charts, at that time it was his version of “Moonglow” from his “Unplugged” album that made it to No.65, and prior to that his last singles chart entry was back in June 1963 with the No.96 single “The Good Life”. This is now his nineteenth charting single in Australia, his first being December 1951’s “Because of You” (HP-1 peaked mid-January 1952 for six weeks).

 

And the final new entry of the week goes to local act Short Stack, who debut at No.98 with a new recording "Bang Bang Sexy", the first new material for their upcoming third album. This become the boys’ eighth charting single, with the previous entry being April 2011’s “Heartbreak Made me a Killer” (HP-74).

 

Albums

 

Adele's staggering nineteen weeks at No.1 for "21" has been achieved this week, becoming the first album since the self-titled debut album for Savage Garden back in 1997 to achieve that feat, the only other album to ever achieve nineteen weeks at No.1 being Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Cosmo’s Factory” (from Sept 1970). Her first album "19" holds at No.7 for a seventeen week in the Top 10.

 

Scoring the highest new entry of the week is Sydney four piece band The Jezabels, who enter at No.2 with the debut album "Prisoner". The group has placed two entries on the singles chart, with current album track "Endless Summer" back up to No.62. The other chart effort was the EP “Dark Storm” (HP-40, Oct 2010). Also debuting inside the Top 10, and scoring their second Top 10 entry this year are Lady Antebellum, who enter at No.5 with their third album "Own the Night", whilst their previous charting album "Need You Now" also made it to No.5 in April, taking 32 weeks to reach that peak., original having debuted back in February of 2010.

 

Gotye drops back to No.3 again with "Making Mirrors", and that in turn pushes David Guetta's "Nothing but the Beat" back down to No.4. Also down one place are the Red Hot Chili Peppers with "I'm With You", now down to No.6, but halving its position from last week is Kimbra with her album "Vows" dropping four places to No.8. The album that debuted with Kimba, Pete Murray's "Blue Sky Blue" is down three places to No.9, and holding at No.10 is LMFAO's "Sorry for Party Rocking".

 

The fourth album for Adelaide hip-hop band Funkoars debuts at No.11 entitled "The Quickening", and it instanly becomes their highest charting album, having previously landed on the ARIA Album Charts with their third album “The Hangover” (HP-57, Dec 2008). And debuting right behind at No.12 is Swedish heavy metal band Opeth with their tenth album "Heritage". They have previously charted here in Australia from their seventh album onwards, “Damnation” (HP-54, April 2003), “Ghost Reveries” (HP-35, Sept 2005) and “Watershed” (HP-7, June 2008).

 

Pearl Jam had a road-movie documentary made by film-maker Cameron Crowe (Almost Famous) entitled "Twenty", and the double-disc soundtrack featuring 29 of their songs debuts at No.14. It's the 20th album for the group to chart, and their entire ARIA Chart history is listed below...
