It's nearest challenger is "There You Go" by Pink which rose two places to number two this week and you know...it MIGHT have the moment to get to to number one if the songs behind it weren't strong which is where "Thong Song" by Sisqo comes into the picture having jumped three places to number three because Australians still think he is singing about about a woman wearing the footwear rather than g-strings.
All of this pushed last week's number one "Oops!...I Did It Again" by Britney Spears back to number four and left it in a pretty awkward spot going forward because it doesn't really have the ability to challenge the front runners on the chart and it's also coming under threat from "Freestyler" by Bomfunk MCs which climbed 5 spots to number five and looks set to be a challenger for number one which is unfortunate because the song sucks.
The rest of the top ten ate songs that got belted by the moves above it basically with "Never Be The Same" by Mel C and Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes down four to number six. "He Wasn't Man Enough" by Toni Braxton hit a two place skid to number seven while Vanessa Amorosi had a little "Shine" scrubbed off down one to eight.
Destiny's Child lost out big down six places to number nine with "Say My Name" while Bon Jovi's "It's My Life" fell one place to number ten.
Gains
Not too many big gains this week with the biggest gain being for Faith Hill's "Breathe" which climbed from 42 to hit 28 this week, this is huge in the US so I wouldn't be surprised if it picked up more traction in the weeks ahead.
Fragma's "Toca's Miracle" had a good five place gain to 15 this week.
Re-Entries
Australia cannot decide what to do with "Back At One" by Brian McKnight so it's back at number 41.
Losers
Oof, it's been a busy week on this front, let's start with the former chart toppers that lost big this week with "Bye Bye Bye" by *NSync down from 22 to 39 while "Poison" by Bardot slipped from 24 to 36.
The big plunges also happened for former top ten hits as "Adelante" by Sash! plummeted from 13 to 24 this week while "Candy" by Mandy Moore dropped eleven places to 49 this week.Ouch,
New Entries
So apart from "Who the Hell Are You" by Madison Avenue debuting at number one, what else debuted this week?
The Vengaboys are in at 13 with their newest single "Shalalala Lala" while the rest of the debuts are in the 40s including for Australian band Invertigo with their first ARIA charting single called "Desensitized" at number 40 (this song is pretty good. Please check it out)
Also in with a new single at 48 is Midnight Oil's cover of Russell Morris song "The Real Thing"...this is a thing apparently...
Finally Eiffel 65 hit the charts again at 50 with "Too Much of Heaven"
