This week was weird, not only did a certain song that I was expecting to re-enter in the top 10 fail to do so but we'll get to that. Leaving the top 10 was Macklemore and Skylar Grey's "Glorious" (Don't worry, there's still Macklemore inside the top 10) as it slipped to number 11.
Really the top 5 of our top 10 on the ARIA chart remained the same, Post Malone's "rockstar" feat. 21 Savage keeps hold of the number 1 with "rockstar" (he has a much better song called "Candy Paint" which entered the Billboard Hot 100 recently. it's much better than either "rockstar" or "I Fall Apart).
New UK and Canadian number 1 "Havana" by Camila Cabello feat. Young Thug remains at number 2 for another week.
"Perfect" by Ed Sheeran remains at three, "Young, Dumb and Broke" by Khalid at number 4 and "Feel It Still" by Portugal. The Man at number 5
Then we get to our new arrival in the top 10 and this is probably because of the current number 1 with "I Fall Apart" rising from 14 to number 6.
Rebounding from 10 to 7 is "New Rules" by Dua Lipa.
The other new arrival in the top 10 is Macklemore's collaboration with Kesha called "Good Old Days" jumping from 11 to 8.
"Dusk til Dawn" by Zayn and Sia dropped from 9 to 7 and "Too Good at Goodbyes" by Sam Smith dropping from 8 to number 10. I expect "Too Good at Goodbyes" will get a boost from the album drop.
Biggest gain this week is "Let You Down" by NF which jumped from 43 to 31. "Silence" by Marshmello and Khalid looks to be on the verge of breakinginto the top ten climbing 4 places to number 12. Continuing a good week for Post Malone "Congratulations" (feat. Quavo) climbed to number 30.
Biggest loser this week was "Gorgeous" by Taylor Swift which fell from 9 to 26 while "Look What You Made Me Do" dropped from 26 to 32 but both should get an album boost when "reputation" drops, "Slow Hands" by Niall Horan lost it's gains from last week to slip to 41.
As for re-entries, Taylor Swift re-enters at 44 with "...Ready for It?" at number 44 because of the video which is odd, would have thought that it would have re-entered a bit higher but I guess that shows how divisive this album roll out is proving.
"Let You Down" by Peking Duk and Icona Pop re-enters at 49.
Two new entries inside the top 50 with "Wolves" by Selena Gomez and Marshmello entering at 15 to be the top debut, I wouldn't be surprised if this enters the top 10. The other new entry is the horrendous "Gucci Gang" by Lil Pump (PLEASE AUSTRALIA DO NOT MAKE THIS SONG A HIT!)
Outside the top 100 the best of the new entries was "I Miss You" by Clean Bandit feat. Julia Michaels entering at number 65, "Man's Not Hot" by Big Shaq at number 68 (that song has just entered the Billboard Hot 100 in the US), "Motorsport" by Migos, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B arrives at number 74 (I expect this song to break into the top 50), "Burning" by Sam Smith at 80, "Go Bang" by Pnau at 81 and finally "Way Out" by 360 feat. Teischa at 95.
So what dropped out? I'm pleased that the awful "Your Song" by Rita Ora and the bland "Back to You" by Louis Tomlinson feat. Bebe Rexha and Digital Farm Animals exited but I'm not so happy that "Lose My Mind" by Dean Lewis exited the top 50 after just one week (is it really worth losing this terrific song so Lil Pump can enter the chart? Come on...). The other drop out is "There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back" by Shawn Mendes but that should have enough credits to make the year end 100 anyway.
So that rounds up this week's chart review. This week should be the calm before Tropical Cyclone Reputation wreaks havoc on the chart but can "Havana" give Camila Cabello her first number one hit in Australia or will Post Malone and 21 Savage hold number one for another week?
