    Gavin Ryan's Chartifacts

    (Thanks to Gavin Ryan)

     

    Singles

     

    Rihanna becomes the first female artist to debut at the top of the ARIA Singles chart this decade by entering at No.1 with the lead single from her forthcoming fifth album “Loud” (due November 2010) entitled “Only Girl (in the World)” (DL: 1 debut). As she had scored two previous chart-toppers this year, this now becomes her third No.1 after “Rude Boy” (2 weeks, March) and her duet with Eminem on “Love the Way You Lie” (6 weeks July-August) which is sitting at No.6 this week. No other act this year has scored more than one No.1 single, so Rihanna jumps ahead of all other acts to reach the top this year.

     

    “Only Girl (in the World)” is the 968th No.1 single in Australia (1940 to 2010), and Rihanna’s sixth overall. It puts her on equal level of ‘Most No.1 Singles’ with such acts as Dean Martin, Roy Orbison, The Rolling Stones and Abba, who all achieved six No.1’s during their time on the charts. And this new track debuting at the top moves Rihanna’s tally at the top to a total of twenty-seven weeks, which now puts her on equal footing with Eminem who achieved his 27 weeks with seven No.1’s, Rihanna has done it with six. “Only Girl” is now the fifth No.1 for the Def Jam label, all previous were of course by Rihanna. It’s also the eighteenth ‘Girl’, the second ‘Only’ and the twelfth ‘World’ to reach the top, in fact one song had both a girl and a world in it’s, and was the last ‘world’ infused track to reach the top, Prince/Love Symbol’s “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World” (2 weeks, May 1994). The song has also reached No.1 in Canada (up from No.65) and Norway, No.2 in Sweden and jumped from 75 to No.3 on the US Charts this past week.

     

    So Rihanna’s debut pushes the four week run at No.1 of Taio Cruz’s “Dynamite” (DL: 1 to 2) down to No.2 this week, whilst last week’s No.3 stays put for a third non-consecutive week, Usher and Pitbull’s “DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love” (DL: 3 to 5, Phys” 11 to 6), but the three week run at No.2 for Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” (DL: 2 to 4) is over as it drops back down two places to No.4 this week. Scoring all the fives this week is Bruno Mars and his track “Just the Way You Are” (DL: 5 to 3), staying put at No.5 in its fifth week on the chart.

     

    As I mentioned above, Eminem and Rihanna’s duet “Love the Way You Lie” (DL: 4 to 7) is at No.6, down two places this week. Climbing three places to No.7 is Mike Posner’s “Cooler than Me” (DL: 10 to 6), which pushes Cee-Lo Green and his track “F.U.” (DL: 8 hold) down a place to No.8. Ke$ha drops down three places to No.9 with her fourth Top 5 single “Take it Off” (DL: 6 to 8), and Flo Rida and David Guetta drop down two places to No.10 with “Club Can’t Handle Me” (DL: 7 to 10).

     

    New Peaks: There are only two new peaking tracks outside of the Top 10 this week, the first gets help from their X Factor performance last Monday night, The Potbelleez and their new single “Hello” (DL: 48 to 30) scores the biggest Top 50 jump by rising sixteen places to No.26 this week, and right above it also helped by an X-Factor performance (plus a Glee one later in the week) is Jay-Z and Alicia Keys with “Empire State of Mind” (DL: 35 to 24), back up ten places to No.25, the song not having been so high since the end of March. The other new peak comes from Brian McFadden and Delta Goodrem, who break into the Top 50 by climbing thirteen spots to No.41 this week with the track “Mistakes”.

     

    With Rihanna scoring the highest new entry of the week, the second of six new Top 50 entries is the lead single from the Kings of Leon’s forthcoming mid-October due fifth album “Come Around Sundown”, the single debuting at No.19 is entitled “Radioactive” (DL: 18 debut). It becomes the bands eighth ARIA Singles chart entry and also becomes their highest debuting single, beating the No.27 entry of their former No.1 “Sex on Fire”, which re-enters the Top 100 this week at No.85, taken from their fourth album “Only By the Night” which jumps back up twenty-five places this week to No.43. “Radioactive” is already Top 5 in Ireland and Top 10 in New Zealand and on the US Rock Chart.

     

    The twelfth solo chart appearance for Black Eyed Peas band member will.i.am debuts at No.21 this week, entitled “Check it Out” (DL: 20 debut), featuring guest vocals from Nicki Minaj. This could in fact just be his second solo chart appearance, as the other ten were all as guest vocalist, so his previous solo single was September 2007’s “I Got it From My Mama” which debuted and peaked at No.19. This new track is from his upcoming fourth solo album (no release date yet), and samples the instrumental hook from the last No.1 of the 1970’s (here in Australia), The Buggles’ “Video Killed the Radio Star” and the song is currently Top 50 in Canada and Top 60 in the US charts.

     

    The second season of the Emmy Award winning musical-comedy series Glee started on Channel 10 on Wednesday night, plus the release of the second half of Season One was released on DVD last week, which has helped their albums to rise slightly, and for three new tracks to enter in the lower part of the Top 50, plus a fourth in the lower Top 100. The original is up ten places to No.25, but the Glee version of “Empire State of Mind” (DL: 39 debut) from Jay-Z and Alicia Keys jumps into the Top 100 at No.40. Next at No.45 is the gangs rendition of “Telephone”, the original by Lady GaGa and Beyonce also rises, their version is up six places to No.68. A new cast member to the show sung his version of “Billionaire” which debuts at No.50, the original from Travie McCoy and Bruno Mars is down two places to No.27 this week. Lastly the other new cast member makes an entry at No.91 with “Listen”, originally performed by Beyonce from the ‘Dreamgirls’ film.

     

    Below Top 50: An X-Factor performance has helped Daniel Merriweather’s 2009 single “Red” to not only re-enter this week, but to also score a new peak. Performed last Sunday night by Melbourne’s Sally Chatfield, it was seen as one of the stand-out performances of the night. The song originally hit No.78 in early November of 2009. The other new peak is also from a local act, Sparkadia climb a couple of places to No.80 with their single “Talking Like I’m Falling Down Stairs”.

     

    The second single from Travie McCoy’s “Lazarus” album enters at No.83 entitled “We’ll Be Alright”, which samples the Supergrass track “Alright” (HP-96, Oct 1995) as its hook, and joins this week’s No.27 single “Billionaire”, which climbed as high as No.5. Another group releasing a second single from their current album are Thirsty Merc, whose new single “All My Life” debuts at No.84, the boys performing this track on Monday night on X-Factor, which has also helped their album “Mousetrap Heart” to rebound forty-one places to No.54 this week. And lastly a third artist scoring a second single from their current album is Enrique Iglesias, who enters at No.95 with “Heartbeat” from his “Euphoria” album (TW-64).

     

    Swedish producer/DJ and one-third of Swedish House Mafia Adrian Lux scores his first solo ARIA Singles chart entry by debuting at No.92 with his third single “Teenage Crime”.

     

    The eleventh chart entry for US rapper Lil’ Wayne debus at No.98 entitled “Right Above it”. It features guest vocals from Drake, who is obviously returning the favor that Lil’ Wayne lent him on his track “Forever” which reached No.99 back in February of this year. This is the lead single from his forthcoming eighth studio album “I’m Not a Human Being”, and this single reached No.6 in the US, and has reached the Top 40 in Canada and England.

     

    Albums

     

    Linkin Park score their longest run at the top of the ARIA Album Chart by securing a second week at the top with “A Thousand Suns”, beating the single week that their last album “Minutes to Midnight” spent back in May 2007. Also holding this week at No.2 is the former No.1 for Katy Perry, “Teenage Dream”, as to is Eminem’s “Recovery” album, which holds at No.4.

     

    The highest new entry of the week is the sixth solo album for Kasey Chambers, debuting at No.3 is “Little Bird”. It’s her first new studio album in two-and-a-half years, with her previous three all debuting at No.1, and her last four albums all reached the No.1 position. She did release a kid’s album last November, and her full chart history is listed below…

    The eighth studio album from Phil Collins entitled “Going Back” enters the album chart at No.9, becoming his first studio album to hit the Top 10 in over fifteen years. This album is a covers set of Motown and soul tracks from the 1960’s, something which has popped up in chart career before, as he has done covers of “You Can’t Hurry Love” (HP-3, 1983) and “A Groovy Kind of Love” (HP-2, 1988). Early in the 2000’s, Phil announced that he was losing his hearing, and in September 2009 he had surgery on his neck to fix some vertebrae which affected his drum playing, thus he mainly sings on this new album, the lead single of which is his rendition of “Heat Wave” (1964, Martha & The Vandellas). Phil’s album entries in Australia are listed below…

  9. Personally for me it's the 80s, just because it's the decade i grew up in going to school and all that.

    The charts were full of a variety of styles (unlike today), from rock, alternative to pop and soul, and the big

    stadium megastars to novelty and easy listening.

     

    90s were okay, but the 80s just tops it for me.

    Singles

     

    For a fourth week, Taio Cruz blows away any competition from the ARIA No.1 Singles spot with his track "Dynamite" (DL: 1 hold), which of course keeps Katy Perry off the top spot for a third week, as she lays at No.2 again with "Teenage Dream" (DL: 2 hold) once again, this time on both the singles and album charts, more on that later.

     

    Moving back up to its original peak of No.3 is "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" (DL: 5 to 3, Phys: 13 to 11) from Usher and Pitbull, which hit its peak in the second week on the charts, now reclaiming that spot in its ninth week. With Usher moving up, it pushes Eminem and Rihanna with "Love the Way You Lie" (DL: 3 to 4) down one place to No.4. Moving up to a new peak of No.5 is Bruno Mars and his debut solo single "Just the Way You Are" (DL: 8 to 5), and in doing so it gives him his third Top 5 appearance, as his two featured guest vocal tracks for "Nothin' on You" (with B.o.B, No.3 TW-86) and "Billionaire" (with Travie McCoy, No.5 TW-25) were both top five hits.

     

    Although it peaked at No.5 two weeks ago, Ke$ha's "Take it Off" (DL: 6 hold) is spending a second week at No.6 in it's sixth week on the charts, and moving up to a new peak of No.7 is Cee-Lo Green's "F.U." (DL: 9 hold), whilst the biggest drop within the Top 10 goes to Flo Rida and David Guetta's "Club Can't Handle Me" (DL: 4 to 7), which drops four places to No.8 this week. The two new entrants to the Top 10 come from last weeks highest debuting track, Nelly's "Just a Dream" (DL: 23 to 8), which jumps fifteen places to land at No.9, and now his 23rd charting single becomes his ninth Top 10 entry. And making his first ever Top 10 appearance at No.10 is Mike Posner with "Cooler Than Me" (DL: 14 to 10), which climbs three places this week.

     

    New Peaks: B.o.B. is set to score his third consecutive Top 10 hit, as his latest single "Magic" (DL: 15 to 11) moves up four places to No.11, and The Script return to their entry position from four weeks ago of No.12 with "For the First Time" (DL: 13 to 12), helped by their new albums high debut no doubt. Another act who debut with a new album is Little Red, who rocket up nine places to No.19 with "Rock it" (DL: 27 to 22), their second album scoring a Top 10 debut. Another local act, Zoe Badwi, jumps twelve places to No.24 with her dance track "Freefallin'" (DL: 34 to 23).

     

    With the new No.1 album this week going to Linkin Park, they also score themselves the biggest jump within the Top 50, as "The Catalyst" (DL: 48 to 32) is up sixteen places this week to No.33. Up fifteen places to No.35 is the former No.4 song from December 2009, "Empire State of Mind" (DL: 49 to 35) from Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, which was helped back up the charts by its use during last weeks X-Factor elimination episodes, as two of the four teams went to New York for their singing finales, plus the Alicia Keys 'Broken Down' version re-enters at No.78. Previously Bliss N' Eso have reached No.43 and No.45 on the ARIA charts, but this week they score their first Top 40 entry, as "Addicted" climbs a couple of places to land at No.39, and another local act, The Potbelleez move up nine places to No.42 with their latest single "Hello", breaking into the Top 50 for the first time.

     

    The local female duo of Scarlett Belle score the highest new entry of the week, debuting at No.40 with their second single "Freak Tonight" (DL: 40 debut). The first single "Closure" debuted and peaked at No.38 in its first week on the charts back in July.

     

    Below Top 50:

     

    Brian McFadden and Delta Goodrem's second duet "Mistakes" is the biggest Top 100 climber this week as it's up twenty-one places to No.54. Ahead of their upcoming national tour, Pendulum re-climb nine places to No.60 with "Witchcraft", four places below its original peak of No.56. And possibly due to its great use on The Simpsons opening credits this week, Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" is up twelve places to No.70, now in it's 48th week in the Top 100. Check it out here if you missed it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYb5aV5Z9WY&feature=fvsr

     

    The second single from Kylie Minogue's "Aphrodite" album (TW-45) entitled "Get Outta My Way" debuts at No.69 this week. It’s her 47th singles chart entry, and as it debut so low it’s also her lowest debuting single in her charting career. Her previous lowest entry was “Finer Feelings” which debuted and peaked at No.60 in the first week of July 1992. But more formats/versions of the song are soon to be released, so hopefully this song won’t stay too long down this end of the Top 100. The other Australian act to debut lower down in the charts is Sydney's Sparkadia, who enter at No.82 with "Talking Like I'm Falling Down Stairs", and this is the first taste of their early 2011 due second album, and the band are currently touring with Little Red on their national tour. This is their first ARIA Singles Chart entry.

     

    Sean Kingston debuts at No.73 with his second single of the year and tenth overall, "Letting Go (Dutty Rock)". His previous No.11 single "Eenie Meenie" falls out of the Top 100 this week after 25 weeks in the chart, and this new track (like the previous) features a guest vocalist, this time Nicki Minaj, who also appears as guest vocalist on Jay Sean's "2012" single (TW-47).

     

    Ou est Le Swimming Pool score their second Top 100 entry by debuting at No.79 with "Jackson's Last Stand", which could possibly be their last charting single, as their lead singer died a month ago. They are still on the charts with their first single "Dance the Way I Fell", which is down two places to No.31 this week.

     

    The Plain White T's enter at No.85 with their third ARIA Singles Chart entry "Rhythm of Love", the first taste of the mid-October due sixth album "The Wonder of the Younger".

    The fourth studio album for Linkin Park becomes their second No.1 album in a row, as "A Thousand Suns" leaps into the top spot first week out. It becomes the 619th No.1 album in Australia (1965 to 2010) and the first for the group to debut at the top spot, as “Minutes to Midnight” debuted at No.2 and rose to No.1 the following week. It’s only the fourth album to feature ‘Thousand” in its title, the others were for Natalie Bassingthwaighte’s “1000 Stars” (March 2009), Tool’s “10,000 Days” (May 2006) and to go a little higher, “20,000 Watt RSL” from Midnight Oil (October 1997). It’s also the fourth ‘Sun’ to reach the top of the album charts, the last being Pete Murray’s “See the Sun” back in October 2005.

     

    “A Thousand Suns” is the 224th No.1 album performed by an American performer, the 109th by an American Group, and the 295th by a Group, with the last US Group to hit the top of our album charts being The Foo Fighters in November of 2009 with their “Greatest Hits” collection. The bands previous chart efforts are below…
