Singles

 

After spending five weeks hovering in the Top 5, Timbaland’s The Way I Are has taken out the top spot, leaving Beautiful Girls by Sean Kingston at No.2. Delta Goodrem is resting on her laurels this week as In This Life remains at No.3 and her new album Delta, debuted at No.1 on the albums chart. Hey There Delilah scores the No.4 spot, marking the Plain White T’s peak position for the track and thus leaving The Veronica’s Hook Me Up settling for No.5. Santana’s Into The Night moves up a notch to No.8, meanwhile the Rogue Traders remain stationed at No.10 with Don’t You Wanna Feel.

 

SORRY, BLAME IT ON ME - Akon No.30

Making his debut in 2005, Akon burst into the ARIA Singles Chart with Locked Up. The single peaked at No.33 in May that year. Next up for Akon was Lonely, Akon’s first No.1 single. Lonely spent three non-consecutive weeks at No.1 and is certified double platinum. Akon almost topped the charts for a second time with Smack That, but the single peaked at No.2 on the combined chart and No.1 on the physical single chart earlier this year. Sorry Blame It On Me is Akon’s seventh Top 40 hit and was written to apologize publicly for his actions during a nightclub performance in Trinidad.

 

NOT ME - Amy Pearson

No.37

Originally hailing from Birmingham, England, pop singer Amy Pearson now calls Sydney home. Pearson honed into her skills at the very young age of three and by six she was writing her own songs. In 2003 Gary Barlow of Take That fame saw Pearson’s potential and decided to help her break into the music business. Pearson made her debut onto the ARIA Singles Chart with Don’t Miss You, which peaked at No.19 in July this year. Not Me is the second single to be released off Pearson’s forthcoming album, Who I Am.

 

SAVE ME - The McClymonts No.76

Aussie country music trio The McClymont’s consists of sisters Brooke, Samantha and Mollie. Big sister Brooke has had two solo singles releases – I Can’t Wait (No.49 July ’02) and I Don’t Think I Know (No.45 Jan. ’03) and has also written songs for Olivia Newton-John, Hilary Duff and past Idol winner, Kate DeAraugo. Middle sister Samantha won the Golden Guitar for Best New Talent and released a track called Cookin’ In My Kitchen, but it failed to make an impact on the ARIA Singles Chart. Last of all, youngest sister Mollie, graduated from a Talent Development program three years ago and has since been working on her song writing skills. Together their self titled EP peaked at No.40 in September last year and are set to release their debut album in two weeks called, Chaos And Bright Lights.

The Hives previous releases have included Tyrannosaurus Hives (No.33 Jul. ’04) and Your New Favourite Band (No.19 Jun. ’02).
