#2 in Australia this week

https://www.aria.com.au/charts/albums-chart/2022-10-03

 

https://www.aria.com.au/charts/news/5sos-score-five-in-a-row

 

It’s a third Australian act in as many weeks debuting at the top of ARIA Albums Chart this week, as 5 Seconds of Summer score #1 with 5SOS5.

 

All five of the indie-rock outfit’s studio albums have topped the Albums Chart: 5 Seconds of Summer in 2014, Sounds Good Feels Good in 2015, Youngblood in 2018 and Calm in 2020 (their live album LiveSOS peaked at #7 in 2014). One of Australia’s most successful musical exports, 5 Seconds of Summer’s first three albums also went to #1 in the US, while Sounds Good Feels Good and Calm hit #1 in the UK. 

 

The band said: “Thank you ARIA, if you’ve been following the band for the past decade, we love you. Thank you for five #1 albums, we did it!”

 

Annabelle Herd, ARIA CEO, said: “What an incredible three weeks for Australian albums, congratulations to 5 Seconds of Summer on the success of their new album and an incredible decade of music loved across the world. We are so proud of 5SOS and the success they continue to have globally, and we can’t wait to see them back touring in Australia later this year.”

 

Robbie Williams moves up to #2 on the Albums Chart from #19 last week with XXV, following his performance in the AFL Grand Final last weekend, while Aussie hip hop artist Seth Sentry breaks the top 20 at #11 with 2012’s ARIA Award-nominated This Was Tomorrow.

 

Sam Smith debuts at the top of the ARIA Singles Chart with Unholy, their duet with German-born, US-based pop sensation Kim Petras. It is the English superstar’s second #1 here, following Too Good At Goodbyes in 2017, and their first top 10 hit since How Do You Sleep in 2019.

Lyrics

 

Lost

 

[Verse 1]

I wake up

Terrifying myself again

Caked in makeup

And a little lost

These reactions

Are relentless

Abandoning

The permafrost

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Who am I fooling?

Well, I've got a list

I disappoint them only to exist

[Chorus]

I lost my place in life

I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

 

[Verse 2]

A walk-up

Of my masterpiece

To the nothingness

Greeting me

Everything smells like

Sympathy

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Who am I fooling?

Well, I've got a list

Much too exhausting only to resist

 

[Chorus]

I lost my place in life

I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

I lost all hope

I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

You might also like

 

[bridge]

All my friends say

"Don't give up yet

You must still get there"

But I don't think so

 

[interlude]

Ooh, impress me (Try)

Ooh, impress me (Try)

 

[Chorus]

I lost my place in life

I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

I lost all hope

I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

I lost all hope

When I lost my point of view

I lost what it is to love

When I lost my faith in you

Lyrics

 

More Than This

 

Go

Go, go

 

I said that we can't fly

She held my hand and said, "Let's try"

But I'm not that kind of guy

She said, "Labels drag you down"

Let them go before you drown

Take your shoes off, stick around (go)

 

Yesterday, so heavy

Why don't you put it down?

You won't disappoint me

But you should know by now

 

You're more than this

You're better at life

Than you've been letting on

And I don't know why

You're more than this

You are what it is

The world is at your fingertips

And there's more than this

 

So I took a chance

Let her teach me how to dance

Through circumstance (go)

 

Yesterday came quickly

Way too quick for me

She told me I should close my eyes

'Cause only then I'd see

 

You're more than this

You're better at life

Than you've been letting on

And I don't know why

You're more than this

You are what it is

The world is at your fingertips

And there's more than this

 

Don't know what's the best part

The kind eyes or soft heart

Lord, give me enough time

To figure it out (go), to figure it out

 

You're more than this

You're better at life

Than you've been letting on

And I don't know why

You're more than this

You are what it is

The world is at your fingertips

And there's more than this

 

(More than this)

Go

(More than this)

Go

Hopefully recent performances have given it some traction.

 

Rumour has it that Robbie is no longer appearing at the NTA's, , I guess he has too much going on with his tour so not unexpected

Not official but a really good and calm remix.

Lyrics

 

Home Thoughts From Abroad

 

Time drags its feet, it feels like forever

But the longer the wait, the sweeter the kiss

 

All I really know is we're stronger together

If that isn't love, then I don't know what is

 

I know you can't say how you're really feeling

What goes unsaid is what I'm feeling too

 

So here we are living, letter to letter

There's nothing I love more

Than home thoughts from aboard

 

At 10 o'clock tonight I'll be looking at the moon

That's 1:30 for you

Will you be up then too?

 

I know it's shining on me and it shines on you

And these simple things

Help me get through

 

I stand in the storm, just me and my sail

And hope that it blows me closer to you

 

Secrets keep you sick

They stop you from sleeping

I want you to know, I keep no secrets from you

 

So here we are living life through a letter

I know there's nothing you love more

Than home thoughts from abroad

 

At 10 o'clock tonight I'll be looking at the moon

That's 1:30 for you

Will you be up then too?

 

I know if it's shining on me then it shines on you

These simple things

Help me get through

Gorgeous song, gorgeous lyrics :wub:

 

So, I was very wrong when I said that Robbie will be in the top 3 in UK this week.

XXV is #14.

So now I don't understand how the album's chart works =)

I have no idea either, how did you figure it would be top 3 though :o

 

Tbh I can never understand those charts, the sales numbers are awful in general .

His sales last week were not far from Top-6 even being #21, you know.

And due the fact of his promo during all the weekend (nobody did more) he must did much better than #14.

So, I really was sure about Top-3 this week, so I'm a little bit dissapoining now :)
