ARIA Chart News – w/c 13th September 2010

Katy Perry and Taio Cruz hold on top of the ARIA Charts

Katy Perry’s album “Teenage Dream” holds for a second week at the pinnacle of the ARIA Album Chart, comfortably staving off Eminem’s “Recovery” which makes another surge towards the top of the chart, moving up from four to two. Taio Cruz’s “Dynamite” chalks up three weeks at number one with sales in excess of Platinum on this week’s ARIA Singles Chart, where the top four singles hold firm from last week.

Highlights from this week’s ARIA Album Chart include the highest top 40 debut coming from The Killers’ front man Brandon Flowers, who lands at #5 with his solo debut “Flamingo”. The Killers have had four top 10 results, including their number one debut with “Hot Fuss” in 2005. American band Stone Sour slides in at #6 with “Audio Secrecy”, their second ARIA top 40 result after “Come What(ever) May” peaked at #21 in 2006. After twenty six weeks in the top 40, Angus & Julia Stone continue to enjoy strong sales with “Down The Way”, moving up two places to #7. Fellow Aussies Birds Of Tokyo move back in to the top 10 at 10, with Lady Antebellum just behind them at #12, jumping a massive 22 places with their former US smash, “Need You Now”. Train also enjoys some strong momentum, up from 23 to 14 with “Save Me, San Francisco” and Usher lands back in the top 20 at #19, up from 26 with “Raymond V Raymond”. Taylor Swift moves back into the top 40 for the 74th week with the five times platinum success, “Fearless”, at #37, with AC/DC’s “Iron Man 2” following suit at #38 and Jason Derulo’s self-titled release re-entering at #40.

Katy Perry’s ‘Teenage Dream” holds at #2 on this week’s ARIA Singles Chart, Taio Cruz denying Katy the number one single and album chart double! Off the back of their recent Australian visit, the boys from Good Charlotte make a huge impact, moving up ten places to #7 with “Like It’s Her Birthday”, their third top 10 result following “Keep Your Hands Off My Girl” which hit #5 in March 2007 and “Dance Floor Anthem” which peaked at #2 in July 2007. Cee-Lo Green makes his first appearance in the ARIA top 10 with “F U” moving up from 26 to 9, and Nelly provides the week’s highest top 40 debut with “Just A Dream” at 24, his twenty third Australian chart single, coming from his forthcoming new studio album “Nelly 5.0”. Lady Antebellum’s single “Need You Now” mirrors the forward trajectory of their album, moving back up from 40 to 30, and further debuts come from Melbourne’s Little Red at 28 with “Rock It”, Liverpool trio The Wombats at 35 with “Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)”, their first top 40 entry, and local singer Zoe Badwi at 36 with “Freefallin’”.

This week’s ARIA Digital Track Chart sees Taio Cruz’s “Dynamite” sitting once again in top spot, with Good Charlotte and Cee-Lo Green both making the top 10 and the highest debut coming from Nelly with “Just A Dream” at 23.
