Surprised how well Katy's doing, that song isn't that good. It's even #1 on iTunes US.

Plus, Christina is a much bigger name and her latest was a much better song and only managed to peak at #11.
california gurls #4 now

Airplanes #2 i hope it gets #1

also scouting for girls is #33 good song,check it out

Airplanes is a little better than Nothin' On You but I'm yet to really get into it yet.
Scouting For Girls are alright, I can't believe Katy is doing so well though.

115.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (EP, New Peak, 3 days overdue to enter the Top 120)



WTF, why is FFTL struggling, is it getting much radio airplay guys?

Eenie Meenie Miming Mo? LOL

Good commentary for 2, 7, 11 and 20
My first kiss was #19 earlier today

UGH, yolanda is NOT cool XD! i hope he doesnt crack top 10...its worse than the crazy frog, schnappi, and bob the builder all together
Thankyou, Mykl!

Does anyone know who are Yolanda Be Cool and DCup Bra?

and Chiddy Bang? who are you? I just want Bang Bang Bang!
02.B.O.B & Hayley Williams - Airplanes (New Peak, that's high enough!)

seriously?,you need to shut the hell up,i think your stupid posting is enough.
agreed chris A
"Airplanes" might not peak at #1, because Katy Perry could takeover after Usher.

FFTL is struggling, don't know why? is at #95 on the Radio Airplay chart.
I'm personally glad 3oh3 isn't moving up. Them and Kesha are horrible.

On the other hand, I wish David Guetta would rise, Chiddy Bang too. I'm quite surprised California Gurls and Airplanes are moving up really quickly.
Katy perry will make short work of usher i think, question is how long?
Katy Perry is confident that her new song will be a worldwide #1 hit and the song of the summer in the U.S! which is what she said on Twitter.

She is doing everything she can to make sure that it's a big hit! including a promotional performance at the MTV Movie awards next month. Go Katy!
well to be honest, im expecting a similar run to sexy bitch
I think Katy Perry could take over as a short #1 too, but I think Airplanes is more of a stayer and could take over in the coming weeks.

FFTL is so much better than 3 Words. FFTL ran circles around 3 Words all throughout the European charts. This is confirming that Australia is very much influenced moreso by American than British music.
With a rise in airplay I hope it can climb up the iTunes chart, and with its 2 versions charting atm that would probably be the equivalent of a standalone #60 placing?
Katy has been getting a lot of publicity, her upcominh wedding to Russell Brand and she was declared the hottest woman in the world by Maxim Magazine!
#59-#61 based on their combined popularity bars so that's a very good guess. (FFTL)

I agree Mykl, you are so right.

FFTL peaked at #1 on my Personal chart this week, and it is way better than "3 Words" which only peaked at #19 on my chart.

More radio and video airplay could help the EP or Album version rise into the Top 50 soon, i hope.
Wow, that was a complete guess, I can't even see the popularity bars. The new iTunes is nowhere near as good as the old but I need the new as my partners iPod isn't compatible with the older iTunes

FFTL peaked at #4 on my chart but it's been in for a total of around 6 months which is quite an achievement. 3 Words managed #8 but only spent around 2-3 months in.
I need the new iTunes too as I have some iTunes LP that only works with iTunes 9. How about your partner's iPod mysteriously goes missing

3 Words is Cheryl's best! #1 for me and great longevity, FFTL was #4 and not that good so far run..

Am I the only one who thinks California Gurls is an exact replica (rip off) of TiK ToK!?
yes you are 392, i most deffinately cant hear the resemblance, i think your just trying to pick on songs that you dont like

i love CG, cant wait for it to go #1 , is anyone else noticing that we have still yet to have a #1 stint, our longest was a 5-weeker (fireflies) this year.
We haven't, yet Brandon complains of a song that's been #1 for 3 weeks a 'longevity' issue.

#1s this year are extremely short compared to last year.

Last year we had 5 songs stay #1 for over 6 weeks (Right Round (7), Boom Boom Pow (6), I Gotta Feeling (7), Sexy Bitch (7), and Tik Tok (8)) and that's not including Love Story's 11 week run at #2.

Most of the above songs were crap and I do sound silly complaining but I think Brandon need's to reconsider his annoying "longevity issues"
Sorry Brandon for 'attacking' you but I just find those 'longevity issues' really annoying
California gurls, at #3 now, hopefully airplanes goes to #1, OMG goes to #3, and airplanes get a week at 1, then california gurls takes over
I dont hate Cali, but it sounds exactly like Ke$$hy.
Now I've embarrassed myself even more.

Anyway, here's the top 20 bandit.fm download chart.

1. Christina Aguilera - Not Myself Tonight (Bandit is doing a special discount. It is $0.49 )
2. Usher - OMG
3. Brain Mcfadden - Just Say So
4. Jason Derulo - Ridin Solo
5. Vanessa Amarosi - Mr Mysterious
6. Train - Hey Soul Sister
7. Justin Bieber - Baby
8. B.o.B - Nothing On You
9. Timbaland - If We Ever Meet Again
10. B.o.B (again ) - Airplanes (New debut)
11. Eminem - Not Afraid (New Debut)
12. Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug
13. Jason Derulo - In My Head
14. Chiddy Bang - Opposite of Adults

no katy perry
Yeah there's no katy perry.

Airplanes and Eminen did only debut sometime this week.
Great that it's #1 there, me knows about the discount, wish ARIA lets it chart some time soon!!!

GetMusic chart:
1. Telephone (Ming Extended Mix)
2. Blah Blah Blah
3. Hey Soul Sister
4. Rude Boy
5. 3 Words
6. Fireflies
7. Memories
8. Rock That Body
9. Baby
It's probably only rising on iTunes due to hype and the fact that it has a front page ad. Wait until Monday to see that go.
Would You Raise Your Hands - Rogue Traders (Great song by the way) has jumped 140 spots into the top 60 thanks to their performance at the logies and on Hey Hey!

Can Will.i.Am just piss off, forever, PLEASE!?
California Gurls is number one on the NZ itunes chart atm, i expect this song to be huge (not i kissed a girl huge though)

i'm real surprised iyaz is not in that top 20.

you guys have lots of glee in your top 200 i'm loving it! and also i saw gin wigmore in the top 100 this makes me happy
Last edited:
You always sorta confuse me Alley, as you mention NZ as you, but are on AU site, and then sometime seem to mention AU as you xD. I get what you mean though.
Can anyone tell me whats goin on with the random songs entering?

Kanye West - Heartless (Mid-80s)
Matisyahu - One Day (50s)
Rogue Traders - Would you Raise Your Hands (50s)
Gin Wigmore - Hey Ho (70s)

What the...?
matishayu's song is great, dont diss it til you try it! lol
Not dissing... King Without A Crown and Youth (both from 2006) are great tracks, but why is One Day charting?
Love Rogies and Matisyahu great to see them charting. I've had Mati for months though, quite old.
i dunno, no point to complain XD
Katy Perry's "California Gurls" sounds similar to Kesha's "Your Love Is My Drug" and Paris Hilton's smash hit "Stars Are Blind"
bullshit it does you baby eating gaga whore !
but in seriousness, it aint copying anything
It definitely sounds like Tik Tok, but not as catchy.
yeah i agree mykl definetly a tik tok sorta thing going on in it
I just found out why Kanye's Heartless is rising,someone sang it on Australia's Got Talent
Katy Perry in the Top 3, what a load of crap.
Fake Bitch should think about early retirement, that would be nice.
Why is Beautiful by Christina Aguilera at #53?
because glee have a version of it
Please don't be mean to Katy Perry, she is a lovely person.

Katy Perry is the world's hottest woman, the new song is #1 on the U.S Itunes! and she will be getting married soon!

Everything is really going well for her.

Why do you hate Katy, Lifter?
I like Katy's Music but she is far from a nice person haahaha well thats the impression i get anyway but shes a funny one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQGB5LRjXTE god this was funny.

I like Katy Perry, she's one of the very few pop stars I like
I have heard Katy can be quite the bitch. She does have a great distinct voice though, but California Gurls is a bit choppy.

New iTunes #01...

B.O.B. & Hayley Williams - Airplanes.
YES!

California Gurls is a dissapointment! It does sound like the music Ke$ha has recently provided. On the radio they played the new track as a layer over Tik Tok and the entire layout of the song is highly similar.
Katy Perry burst onto the scene with a novelty track I Kissed A Girl... which guess what Jill Sobule did a decade earlier.
Both Thinking Of You & Waking Up In Vegas were weak offerings.
To Katy Perry's credit i think Hot 'N' Cold was a fine pop tune and her input into Starstrukk with 3OH!3 was also enjoyable.
I also think If We Ever Meet Again is okay but i think if any thing not right is Timbaland's fault.
As a general consensus, with so many female artists on show i think Katy Perry is a much weaker artist in comparison to Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Cher, Britney Spears, Chrisitna Aguilera & Lady GaGa.
I want her to dissolve as i think it's just there for some novelty plus her live performnaces are lacking.
Not a fan of Katy's new song either. This ain't a patch on her first two singles. Am getting into that new BoB tune after finding it boring at first. Yolanda Be Cool has cracked the Top 10 and there's another version at #95.
Itunes Update: Fri 14th May, 11:00pm

Chart commentary:

After only 7 non-consecutive days at #1, Usher falls to #2 and i'm shocked, after such a short time at the top, he deserves a lot of more days at #1.
A rebound is possible for "OMG!", but hopefully after his promotional performance on Sunrise this Monday morning, sales should recover i hope.
B.O.B & Hayley Williams move up to #1, how long will they last at #1?
Katy Perry's "California Gurls" is still at #3, and will hopefully peak at #1 soon, it would be nice to see another female artist at #1 again.

01.B.O.B & Hayley Williams - Airplanes (New Peak, 1st day at #1)

02.Usher - OMG! (Former #1 peak, a rebound is still possible)

03.Katy Perry - California Gurls (sales stalled for a while, still awaiting #1)

18.30H!3 & Kesha - My First Kiss (New Peak)

100.Travie McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak, Fantastic video clip, excellent vocals and song concept. Travie McCoy is Katy Perry's ex-boyfriend, why has his name been changed to Travie instead of Travis? i prefer Travis)

Katy Perry is so amazing! very talented, successful and attractive! a love all the songs she released.

My Top 7 hits:

01.I Kissed A Girl (Global #1 hit that is her signature song!)
02.Hot N Cold (Commercially successful, Grammy nominated track)
03.Thinking of You (fantastic video, vocals and concept)
04.Waking Up In Vegas (excellent video clip)
05.Starstruckk feat. 3OH!3 (deserved to be a worldwide #1)
06.If We Ever Meet Again feat. Timbaland (Global Itunes hit)
07.California Gurls (tipped to be #1 around the world)

Katy Perry is a no talent wannabe who's claim to fame was being a preachers daughter. Ever since her perfomances a few years back on the MVA's & EMVA's i've disliked her.
I think Nateboi hit the nail right on the head
Thats what I have been trying to say BB, you simply said it better.
yolanda be cool sucks,how is it #8
I Know I know, what a load of crap.
My brother thinks Yolanda sounds like on of those songs that is being played on Sesame Street . You know when they have that number of the day and they continuously yell out the number

YES!!! THANK B.o.B IS #1!!!

Bye bye Usheer, please come out with better songs.
OMG seems to be the only current song I can play on repeat on my iPod without getting sick of it at all. There are many better songs but I play OMG a lot and its very catchy, it looks to be very high on my personal this week.

No I don't I haven't watched that for ages anton but I guess what you mean xD.

18. 3OH!3 - My First kiss
19. Kevin Rudolf - I Made It
20. Jet - Seventeen

WOO Billionaire is at #54

Lying has hit the top 50 (#48).
Yolanda is horrible! Like I heard it the first time the other day and i thought i had downloaded some virus song (like one of those fake songs)

I like California Gurls though...it's a happy song
21.Christina Aguilera - Not Myself Tonight (successful sales recovery, awaiting Top 20 re-entry)
sales recovery?
i think its way too late for this. you could even say another song affected by the lack of a music video in time with the release of the song. i.e. telephone.
But "Not Myself Tonight" has recovered well after suffering low sales, only three weeks ago the song was at a low #38, and now it's #21!
neutron star collision is on #33 on its first day. will the song actually chart well?
Averagely... the song's not too bad.
yeah 21 up from 38 aint bad, but it still isnt close to coming to top 10 where im sure the record company thought it would have been.
OMG is back to #1 for the third time thanks to the Hey Hey performance (which was pretty good).

Itunes Update: Wed 19th May, 6:45pm

Chart commentary:

As predicted, Usher has returned to the #1 position, where he belongs. He is currently in the country for a promo tour, and performed "OMG" on Sunrise and Hey Hey! fantastic live vocals, very impressive and entertaining to watch.

After only 5 full days at #1, B.O.B & Hayley's song "Airplanes" falls to #2, a short stay at the top, OMG! oh well. My forecast is that the song will slip down to #3, and Katy Perry will peak at #2 soon.
The "California Gurls" is rumoured to be released on Friday 11th June, can't fuckin wait.
David Guetta's "Gettin Over You" video is out now!

**************************************************
Top 5 Review:

01.Usher - OMG! (Return to prominence, 8th full day at #1, sales rebound due to promo tour performances, YES! securing a 3rd week at #1 on Aria next week)

02.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (Former #1 peak, sales decline)

03.Katy Perry - California Gurls (stalled, awaiting #2 takeover)

04.Yolanda Be Cool - We No Speak Americano (what the fuck are you doing in the Top 5? why?)

05.Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart (Former #2 peak)

Brandon i like your chart commentary but it is a bit biased if OMG was a song you didn't like it would be a longevity issue... and songs you don't like don't deserve to be near the top..
You a crazy to consider Katy Perry is even worth charting at #1 it doesn't even deserve top 10.
Hello Nateboi!

"OMG" is a really good song, popular in the clubs too,
do you like music from Katy Perry and Usher?

Yes it would be a longevity issue if i disliked a song, that's true.

Katy Perry could possibly peak at #1 with "California Gurls", she is at #1 on Itunes in many other countries as well.
The song has potential to be a #1 hit.
Die Usher,i hate the public and there buying of crap songs
My thoughts on Katy Perry are in another thread..
Usher is a talented performer with a top voice. From his first big impression You Make Me Wanna you knew there was so much star power. 8701 upped the anti and was solid and enjoyable to listen. It wasn't until Confessions did we see Usher shine from Yeah to Burn it was impressive...
Here I Stand was average and i think this was due to some time off the music scene. OMG is an improvement but it is still lacklustre in comparison to awesomeness that is Usher in full flight...
So if i want a memory of Usher creating chart history i want it to be a credible and enjoyable moment that isn't OMG.
If we have learnt anything from popular music over the years is that song doesn't have to be the best to perform miracles on world charts [California Gurls].
"Yeah" has resurrected due to the Hey Hey performance and is at #43 currently!
Yeah is #37 at the moment.
As much as I love the song I hate the impact a (gay) TV show has on the charts making a #1 hit from 2004 re-enter in the top forty six years later. Plus, it wasn't a failure #1, it was the Billboard #1 of the 2000's (I think).
At least Yeah will gain more weeks in the ARIA Top 50 if it re-enters, it only spent 7 weeks in the top 50 despite hitting #1.
There is debate about it but it (Yeah) was #1 in the decade end chart of American Top 40
Here is some ITunes commentary, Brandon style.

1. Usher - OMG (Back at #1, YES, better then Airplanes)
2. B.O.B Feat Paramore Girl - Airplanes (Sales decline)
3. Katy Perry - California Gurls (Thats high enough, drop already)
4. Yolanda Be Cool - We No Speak Americano (NO thats enough, STOP going up)
5. Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart (Slight drop, good)
6. B.O.B - Nothin' On You (Consistant sales)
7. Ke$ha - Your Love Is My Drug (Slight sales boom)
8. Glee Cast - Total Eclipse Of The Heart (WTF!!!!!, WHY!!!)
9. Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Steady Sales)
10. Train - Hey, Soul Sister (Slight drop, go back up please)
11. Brain McFadden - Just Say So (Sales decline, not good)
12. Jason DeRulo - Ridin' Solo (Steady Sales)
13. Eminem - Not Afraid (Sales slump, former #1, steady in teens)
glee are at #8 AND #44 with their total eclipse of the heart
you know one of these days glee are going to go #1
on itunes june 1st - cody simpson in the australian version of justin beiber, with overrated rapper and all
its quite horrid.

http://www.youtube.com/user/CodySimpsonMusic
I Heard about this guy, he almost makes me like Bieber.
yea, iYiYi is possibly the worst song of 2010 so far, yep justin is a prodigy compared to this kid..O_O
cant be tamed @ #76, lets see how it goes, i predicted it to be a #1 hit! (its #1 US itunes btw, so i might of been one of the only people to guess it right xD) SO leeeets go !!!
That Miley tune is crap but it'll probably go Top 10. Surprised that Alejandro is moving back up, especially since it was close to drop below #10 a few days ago.

Usher's OMG is charting at #1, #15 & #158. It will be #1 again next sunday.
can someone tell me what glee is? i dont know what it is
I watched Glee last night, making it episodes 1-4, 13 and 17 that I've seen.
The stuff about Sue's recording of Physical was LMAO by the way.
Their version of Total Eclipse was really bad though.
Itunes Update: Mon 24th May, 6:15pm

Chart commentary:

01.Usher - OMG! (Happy 13th day at #1!, securing him a 4th week at #1)
02.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (Former #1 peak)
03.Katy Perry - California Gurls (still awaiting rise to #2)

12.Miley Cyrus - Can't Be Tamed (New Peak)

One of the best songs of her career to date, i also liked her previous hits "See You Again" and "7 Things". The video concept is amusing, the vocals sound powerful and remind me of Mandy Moore.

36.Travie McCoy & Bruno Mars - Billionaire (New Peak)

Fantastic! love the vocals, and an interesting song concept and video! notice the name change, he used to be "Travis", now it's "Travie", WTF!! why did he change one letter in his name??

60.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (New Peak, rapid sales surge, up from #74)

Finally, a breakthrough for Cheryl Cole!, what took so long?
The song previously peaked at #67, and was charting for a month between positions #95 to #70, and now it peaks at #60.
The sales zoom probably occured due to increased radio airplay, peaking at #64 on the Airplay chart. The new peak might secure her a debut in the Aria Top 50 next week! YES please!
it wont be top 50 for a few weeks i think, but when it does it will no doubt be a smash, just its taking a while to get to those who like music but arent fanatics
if FFTL is a breakthrough for cheryl cole,what was 3 words then?
ugh, i mean a hit
It's a breakthough into the Top 60! YAY!
U.S Itunes Chart Update: Mon 24th May, 8:30pm

01.Usher - OMG! (sales rebound)
02.Katy Perry - California Gurls (Former #1 peak)
03.Miley Cyrus - Can't Be Tamed (Former #1 peak)
04.Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug (Former #2 peak)
05.Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Former #3 peak)
06.Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart
07.La Roux - Bulletproof (New Peak!!)
08.Train - Hey, Soul Sister
09.Black Eyed Peas - Rock That Body (New Peak)
10.Sean Kingston & Justin Bieber - Eenie Meenie Minie Mo
DIE USHER AND KATY LET MILEY BACK!! XD

Yolanda Be Cool & Dcup - We No Speak Americano now #3 hehehehe

the charts just died a little bit more for me

Well it's a breakthrough in the sense that it's not risen any higher than the mid 70's, not a breakthrough for Cheryl Cole.

Fight For This Love is now up to #56
I think we can expect an ARIA debut for it this week
@Mykl It's not going to debut as I doesn't have a full week in sales inside the top 50.

I'm surprised at Train's consistency and Bulletproof's rise. Rock that Body wasn't a surprise for me though.
I just remembered Brandon created this thread, shouldn't we be using it for international iTunes updates?

http://australian-charts.com/forum.asp?todo=viewthread&id=30435&pages=
Whoa, I just got the update which says Jessie's Girl has entered the Top 10, knocking out... Hey Soul Sister
Itunes Update: Tues 25th May, 5:30pm

01.Usher - OMG! (14th full day at #1)
02.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (Former #1 peak)
03.Yolanda Be Cool - We No Speak Americano (New Peak WTF!! why are you in the Top 3?)

08.Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Former #2 peak, sales recovery!! up from #10, securing her a re-entry into the Aria Top 10, awaiting video release)

Top 10 Dropout:

After nearly 4 months in the Top 10, which is such a long time!! "Hey, Soul Sister" falls to #11, a long awaited exit.

11.Train - Hey, Soul Sister (Former #1, sales decline)

31.Travie McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak)

Surprise Top 30 Dropout:

There was a brief sales recovery, but unfortunately it's over for Xtina, what a chart fiasco!

Fans managed to make the song peak at #11 in April, and now it plummets out of the Top 30. I doubt that the sales will recover again. The song was a Top 10 Radio Airplay smash hit, peaking at #6! Yay! that's a good thing.

Stalled at #22 for a 2nd week on the Aria charts, not a chance that it will peak higher, but at least it surpassed the #26 peak that "Keeps Gettin' Better" reached.
Let's hope that the 2nd single will have potential to be a #1 hit.

33.Christina Aguilera - Not Myself Tonight (Former #11 peak, sales decline, it's shocking!)

59.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (Former #56 peak)
LMAO @ your commentary. I don't know Yolanda is top 3. I hate it!

Good to see Train finally leaving the iTunes top 10, but it'll still be in the ARIA top 10 on Sunday, and maybe for another week after that.

@Anton; she very well could debut, last week the song was in the 70's and 80's on iTunes yet still rose from #64 to #54 on ARIA, this week it's much higher on iTunes so could very well be in the 40's.
For the record, Train haven't even been in the top ten for three months.
yes they definately weren't top ten in january
just readin up above ... yeah was not number one of the decade in the u.s. we belong together was
On the weird AT40 decade chart Yeah was.
Train is still the 2nd best song this year behind Fireflies
is that the ryan seacrest one?
Yep Alley. The chart is so far behind and not reflective of the actual billboard chart. I think it just takes into account airplay.
well done Brandon you finally admit the obvious...

on the other hand she is now spending her second week at the top of my personal chart with NMT.

The video really started a "sales recovery" for me
just heard through xtinas leaked album, maybe only 3 or 4 standouts, and out of 18 thats horrid

Desnudate is pretty cool.
Prima Donna - best upbeat song on the album, and its done to XTINA standard
you lost me - is prob the best track on the album this girl needs to keep to ballads sometimes
All i need - very good
Sex for breakfast - quite a nice little tune
I am - also one of the betters
not myself tonight - meh

woohoo - pretty catchy, grows

while almost all the ballads on this album are great, shes lost her voice in the upbeat ones i feel,

The album is half up beat, half ballad, most the upbeats suck, and the ballads are great, so there ya go!

Early candidates for Aria's Highest Selling Songs of 2010:

One of these songs could be at #1 in the end of year 2010 chart, based on longevity in the Aria Top 10:

Owl City - Fireflies
Train - Hey, Soul Sister
Brian McFadden - Just Say So
Iyaz - Replay
Jason DeRulo - In My Head

It's still early though with another 7 months left until the end of the year, anything can happen.
All Night Long up to 379.
Fireflies, Hey Soul Sister, Replay, In My Head, Memories, Rude Boy, Telephone, Blah Blah Blah, Tik Tok, I Like That, Bad Romance and OMG have all sold over 100,000 copies so far this year. Just Say So, 3 Words and Baby are a week or 2 off doing it as well.
Last edited:
Just Say So was accredited Platinum before OMG so i would have to think JSS is ahead of OMG in sales till next week.

Owl City has the #1 of the year easily,no song is even close to its sales
Last edited:
Yes but in the last 2 weeks OMG has sold over 45000 copies compared to about 20000 for Just Say So. I think it is 103,000 for OMG and 95,000 for Just Say So.
where do you get sales each week for the whole chart?
Auspop gives about 20-30 tracks and usually you can fill in the gaps to around 500 copies.
Yeah OMG has sold about 45,000 so would easily be ahead of JSS.

Excited to see Alexandra Burke coming to Australia for promo. She needs to be successful here!
wow,what is up with Train's sudden massive drop down to #17 now,i don't think it will be top 10 this week,i think Ridin Solo and Alejandro will outsell it.
All Night Long HAS to be successful in Australia. It's brilliant. FAR FAR better than Bad Boys.

Shame it's not doing much on iTunes atm.
Train has definitely run out of steam

Hope they can rebound well with a second single. Their album was a bit of a flop
The gap between 11 & 17 is smaller than the gap between 10 & 11 so Train's decline isn't as much as it seems.
Jessie's Girl is no.3
crazy,could be Glee's first itunes #1 after tonight's episode.


Chiddy Bang #11 come on crack the top 10 already! Travis McCoy Ft Bruno Mars Billionare has hit the top 20 aswell
I am assuming that it was Glee bringing back (the awesome) The Boy Is Mine by Brandy/Monica?
U.S Itunes Update: Thurs 27th May, 10:30pm

01.Katy Perry - California Gurls (return to #1, sales rebound)
02.Usher - OMG! (Former #1 peak)
03.Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug (Former #2 peak)
04.Glee Cast - Poker Face (Glee Cast Version)
05.La Roux - Bulletproof (New Peak, a breakthrough hit!)
06.Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Former #2 peak)
07.Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart (Former #1 peak)
08.Miley Cyrus - Can't Be Tamed (Former #1 peak)
09.Glee Cast - Bad Romance (Glee Cast Version)
10.Black Eyed Peas - Rock That Body
It's offical, I HATE GLEE CAST!!!!!

Hopefully Train can keep steady despite now being at #17. It's still 2nd Best Seller of the Year anyway.

^ for the moment.

I hate Glee's version of Poker Face,they destroyed that song!!

Chiddy Bang top 10!
Last edited:
Glee was crap in the first place anyway. Them covering Lady Gaga has just placed them in my top 3 for "Worst TV show of all time" and they are now 2nd behind Kesha for "Worst Artist Of All Time" (Yes they are losing to Lady Gaga )
i finally watched glee last night. its some sort of musical soap opera.
I agree with Chris A, Glee have murdered Poker Face. Some of their covers aren't horrible, but that is atrocious.
Just Say So has also fortunately dropped out of the Top 10, down to #15.
I Just hate how Glee Cast are eligble to Chart and are avalible to buy. Glee Cast Tracks should stay in the show and on Physical Albums, not Singles.
Still love Glee, but I agree their covers of the Lady GaGa songs were terrible, even Kiss wasn't good. The music left much to be desired!

Oh well can't wait til next week.
Bandit.fm downloads update

Also: 22. Spin - Cassette Kids - (Sales Surgance + New Debut)!!

- Note that peaks may be inaccurate. I'm just recalling them from memory.
I believe Ke$ha is #1 as her song is available for 49 cents, like Christina Aguilera was previously.
That sucks

Actually, according to the homepage, Unbroken is for 0.49 cents.
Last edited:
Oops I meant $0.49.
surprised Eenie Meenie is absent,its $0.49. aswell
Ugh, Ke$ha #1, that song sucks, especially compared to her previous 2 hits, and it's becoming bigger than Blah Blah Blah

Surprised how high Muse is, good song, and wow at Christina's drop.

LOL anton, 0.49 cents, everyone would buy that

Also don't get Jessie's Girl there. I have watched the episode and heard the song, it's not that good, and there are many other Glee songs that are as good or better that came nowhere close to the top 50, let alone top 3.
Thats Ke$has Best Track yet believe it or not, it would make my Top 25 if my List was that big.
you would be suprised at how popular jessies girl is as a song, hence why rick springfield is hovering inside the top 100 with his original version as well
Itunes Update: Mon 31st May, 2:15am

Itunes Update: Mon 31st May, 11:00am

OMG! Eurovision winner Lena's song "Satellite" zooms up the
chart to a new peak of #14. OMG! good to see Australian fans embracing Eurovision!

Lena has made Australian Itunes history, by becoming the highest peaking Eurovision song of all time in the chart, and the most commercially successful! CONGRATULATIONS!

But the question is, will she be eligible to enter the Aria charts?

Last year Alexander Rybak's "Fairytale" only peaked at #18.

14.Lena - Satellite (Germany, ESC 2010, New Peak, rapid sales surge, up from #21)

Other Eurovision entries:

91.Giorgos Alkaois - Opa (Greece, ESC 2010, New Peak)
106.Hera Bjork - Je Ne Sais Quoi (Iceland, ESC 2010!! New Peak)

58.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (Former #56, sales rebound, up from #63)
116.Beyonce - Why Don't You Love Me (New Peak??)
Last year's winner entered the ARIA chart at #68 so I imagine this year's could as well.
Last edited:
Im quite shocked its in the top 20 i think the song is in for a massive drop but i hope it can chart.
Last edited:
in all honesty as much as i love her. beyonce's why dont you love me does NOT deserve to make the top 50. its uninspired and i think im just over songs from i am... sasha fierce album.
she needs to take a break imo and give some other people a chance... much like another 'lady'
i agree - sorry but why don't you love me is like a REALLY bad song, and i love beyonce she had number one and number two on my end of year charts last year
Beyonce's other songs were quite good but I don't see the appeal to her new one.

Yes it is quite exciting to see Eurovision doing so well. I've watched it since I was quite young
je ne sais quoi, is #104 now

and im hoping lena can be a hit, wouldnt that be cool for her to have similar success to abba?
lena #13 now

01.Lena - Satellite (Return to #1, sales rebound, up from#9, set to be the biggest selling song of 2010)

its a shame cheryl cole fight for this love is shaping up to be a flop. i mean thats not a sales rebound. its been hovering around the 50-70 mark for a little while now.

im totally in love with that and parachute right now. thanks for putting me onto parachute mykl!
Lady Antebellum Need You Now up to #77,i hope it keeps rising more
Hope both Cheryl and Lady Antebellum can become hits, and no probs Ben
12.Travis McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak, rapid sales surge, awating Top 10 entry)

Travis McCoy is also a dark horse to be the next Itunes #1 hit.

Cheryl Cole's FFTL peaked at #50 for the first time, 6 hours ago.

51.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (Former #50 peak, securing her a debut in the Aria Top 50 this Sunday)
I don't think FFTL will get a spot into the Aria top 50 because it's only spent a few hours in the top 50. It should at least spend about half a week in the 40s at least to secure a spot
47.iYiYi - cody simpson ft flo rida

EWWW!!! AUSSIE JUSTIN BEIBER
wow that really shot up in two hours.
justin bieber wannabe >
Cut out the 'iYiYiYi' and it's not all that bad.
I hate that wannabe Bieber though, as if one isn't bad enough! Neither have talent, so they do have something in common.
wtf sort of song name is iYiYi?
#43 peak for "iYiYi" now
Lena is descending on the iTunes chart really quickly at #21 right now, was #15 not too long ago.
Itunes Update: Tues 1st June, 11:30pm

01.Usher - OMG! (end of 21st day at #1)

11.Travis McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak, awaiting Top 10 entry, the dark horse for the next #1)

19.Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Former #2 peak, the video is coming on Monday, stay active in the Top 20 please! honey! An upcoming sales recovery depends on the success of the video, which could be very controversial. Could the "Alejandro" video overshadow the mega successful "Telephone video?)

21.Lena - Satellite (Germany, ESC 2010 Winner,
Former #12 peak, overnight sales plunge! WTF!! Come to Australia for a promo tour please! will the song get radio airplay in Australia? but still the song will debut in the Aria Top 20! Two full days in the Top 20, this has to fuckin count! please!)
Brandon, it won't debut top 20 as it only has two (possibly the next two days also) days of genuine sales. Possibly around 40-60 debut?

On another note, the ABC News Remix is up to #58. Don't know what to think about it but it makes me laugh when I hear it. Airplanes is really close to taking back number one as well.
Scouting For Girls are #18 David Guetta's Top 5 now,Lena's back at #20 but hey at least Adam Lambert finally leaves the top 20 (love the song but i've been wanting it to start dropping)
Airplanes is back to #1, don't know how long it's been there.
can't be that long,i last checked about 3 hours ago and usher was #1

24.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (New Peak, sales zoom)
B.o.B is awesome. Much much better than Gettin' Over You. It's sad how 99% of songs are dark horses for #1 to you.
Hello 392! Ha! you are so funny! not every song is a dark horse for #1.

Does anyone know what B.O.B stands for? is it Bugger off Bitches? or
Well according to you whenever a song rises a few places it's a dark horse for #1
Last edited:
Me? funny? I'm just trying to say that B.o.B is awesome, maybe also that there's an opening at rehab. Well so many songs are dark horses to you, and having 2-3 days in the top 20 means to you a top 20 ARIA debut...

B.o.B is just a stage name, his real name is Bobby Ray Simons, the B.o.B just comes from Bob I assume.
Thanks for explaining the meaning of B.O.B

I really hope that Lena debuts in the Top 20, "Satellite" is currently stalled at #22.

Rehab! this place is my rehab.
Alexandra Burke is up to 74.

Alexandra Burke up to 67, Come On Alex.
That ABC News Remix isn't too bad.

WTF!!! Is Australia smoking pot or something, how can Cody Simpson be near the ITunes Top 10, he sounds like Justin Biebers long lost Australian Brother. So Another teenage wannabe makes the Chart. How sad, almost makes me like Bieber. I Heard iYiYiY (For 30 Seconds) and it's shit (Flo Rida doesn't help it). What has this world come to, it's no wonder so many people hate the music of today.
The ABC remix is pretty good actually
Alexandra at #60.

No thanks to Oz radio though.
IGF has had a sales surge it's at #49 right now.
Lady Antebellum is #48 on itunes
The next update should be if it hits Top 20 lol.

Itunes Update: Mon 7th June, 9:15pm

01.B.O.B - Airplanes (end of 11th full day at #1, will be #1 for how much longer? it's getting boring seeing it at #1, time for another solo female artist at #1, please!)

02.Katy Perry - California Gurls (New Peak, awaiting #1 takeover, and video clip release. Radio airplay is increasing!)

She performed the track live at the MTV Movie Awards yesterday with Snoop Dogg.

She and her dancers were wearing daisy dukes and bikini tops, very sexy! fantastic live vocals and dancing! very uplifting to watch, the audience were on their feet throughout the performance, loud cheers from the crowd of fans.

She remains at #1 in the U.S Itunes chart, but it's #2 on Bill Hot 100, hopefully she will rise to #1 this Thursday. If "California Gurls" peaks at #1, it will become the 2nd #1 U.S Bill Hot 100 hit of her career. It depends on radio airplay of the track, will she be able to knock Usher off?

08.Travis McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak, expected to peak at #1)

40.Christina Aguilera - Not Myself Tonight (Former #11 peak, sales recovery, was #49 a few days ago)

51.Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love (Former #45 peak, still fighting to rebound back in the Top 50, sales frequently fluctuate, WTF!)

84.Lena - Satellite (Germany, ESC Winner, Former #12 sales decline unfortunately, oh! please return to the Top 50)

108.Christina Aguilera - Woohoo (New Peak!)

The 2nd single off the album "Bionic", she performed as part of a medley at the MTV Movie Awards. Flawless live vocals, excellent choreography and stageshow.
Love the leotard she was wearing, with the red laser crotch flashing lights! sexy ooh la la! Expected to debut at #1 on the Albums chart in the U.S and Australia please!
Fight For This Love must be a hit! I'm going to buy it even.
IGF is now ahead of Imma Be on Itunes...

whats wrong with the link at the top? i can't access it

Yay for Lying's sale surge!

It's at #19 right now
brandon comments are on the the rapid increase however mykl 77 has had a surge.
chris a is in a sales recovery
daniel is at a new peak
and WTF bsb is at #2
Wow, Mykl!
That new peak of mine is really #1, take THAT bsb!
I agree with '!'. The comments on this site are getting repetative and boring. I barely follow the weekly aria release thread anymore, despite my good run with predictions..
Australia is retarded California Gurls is #1 on itunes
WHAT!!!!!! B.o.B FALLS!!

I don't mind California Gurls though...

can someone tell me why when you click christina aguilera week the chart becomes
1 california gurls
2 gettin' over you
3 billionaire
4 ridin' solo
5 your love is my drug
6 lying
7 i like it
8 eenie meenie
9 iyiyi
10 never say never
Isn't it because she performed it at the MTV awards? That retarded claim still stands

ooh katy perry no.1. that'll make predicting the top 3 this week tricky
Crap, Cali #1!!! Poor Airplanes and so surprised at this, especially when it went from stalling at #3 to #1 in hours
commander & FFTL in the top 50 now

11.Amy Meredith - Lying (why has it had a sales surge, though no complaints )
15.Justin Beiber - Never say Never (O_O DIIIEEE!!!)
21.B.o.B Ft. Bruno mars - nothin on you (well you died quickly)
1024. Kylie Minogue - on a night like this (I had nothing else to say...and this was #1024 on itunes )
Another Bieber song? I thought it was The Fray.
Itunes Update: Tues 8th June, 9:00pm

Chart commentary:

VICTORY AT LAST! for Katy Perry, i feel so relieved! she earned her success, through hard work and dedication! video clip is out on Tuesday 15th June.
Hopefully she will peak at #1 on the U.S Bill Hot 100 chart this Thursday!

As predicted, Katy Perry climbs to #1, after several weeks of waiting! "California Gurls" is the new Itunes #1 song! YES!

This is Katy Perry's 2nd #1 Australian Itunes hit of her career, am i correct?? did "Hot N Cold" peak at #1? "I Kissed A Girl" was #1, back in 2008 for multiple weeks. She is desperate for another #1 hit, everything is going well for her! she is so not a one album hit wonder.

The song was performed live at the MTV Movie Awards, Xtina also performed live, but they were both overshadowed by Sandra Bullock's and Scarlett Johansson's kiss, which was just a quick peck.

The kiss wasn't as steamy and didn't last long, like the 3 way Britney, Madonna & Xtina kiss did, at the MTV VMA's back in 2003.

Anyway, Katy Perry becomes only the 3rd solo female artist, to peak at #1 this year on Itunes, congratulations!!
Following Rihanna and Taylor Swift, it's so good to see a female artist back on top.
During the first half of this year, male artists were dominating the top of the charts for many weeks.

Overall 9 male artists have peaked at #1 since January, only 3 female artists so far.

After only 12 non-consecutive days at #1, "Airplanes" by B.O.B & Hayley, has lost momentum! and falls to #2.

Katy Perry's biggest threat, is her ex-boyfriend Travis McCoy. His song "Billionaire" is climbing up the chart every day, so he is looks like a favourite to be the next #1 song.

Could be a battle of the exes soon, it's gonna be fierce!

More good news for Katy, a possible peak at #1 on the Aria charts this Sunday. Usher is now at #3, B.O.B was only at #1 for two days this week, Monday and Tuesday.

Does Katy have a chance to peak at #1 on Aria and Billboard?

57.Christina Aguilera - WooHoo (New Peak, rapid sales zoom, was #108 yesterday. Was performed at MTVMA yesterday.

i just have to say i love your in-depth commentary Brandon Keep It Up!
Thankyou for all the support, Alley T!! lol
It means a lot!
Aww, I like the commentary too. And happypeople, if you don't like it don't read it, simple.

As long as we're keeping on topic (which we are) then it shouldn't matter what we post about.

Nice to see California Gurls at #1 and Cheryl Cole and Kelly Rowland in the top 50. Hopefully Lady Antebellum can re-enter the top 50 very soon!
cant believe katy perry is #1
gee the #1's this year have been crap
Nate, that's the top 10 Pop Chart. I don't know why it turns into that on the front page.

Wooooo, Lying #11

bsb, Lying is being used on the channel ten ads for the show Lie To Me. I also heard somewhere that Amy Meredith were either already on Hey Hey, or were going to be this week. I'm assuming those two things have contributed to their awesome surge.
Why is the iTunes link now a top 1024? I find that a bit weird.

And BZ, Amy Meredith performed it last week.
I hope B.o.B is #1 this week. If they end up doing a Love Story where they get heaps of weeks at #2 I will be pretty annoyed!
Lying #8 now the top 10 gonna be hard to predict this week..

38.Kelly Rowland - Commander (New Peak, securing her entry into the Aria Top 40 this Sunday)
Brandon... do you even follow the progression of the ARIA countdown?
if Commander is #38 tonight and sales period closes tomorrow it would most likely miss the top 100 completely or if allowed to chart debut lowers in the countown.
Omg Brandon, I just sat through the most painful vocal effort since the last time I saw her, I am refering to Katy Perry and her what you call 'MTVMA performance success'.
To be blunt she is terrible at singing live and the set design I thought I was transfered back to 1980, what tha!

Also I was non pleased with Aguilera's effort either, I bought Bionic first thing Monday morning and all i'm hearing is Madonna rehashed from the early 90's but her vocal effort at the MTVMA's was really below Christina's ability.

Just my 2c worth.
Last edited:
yeah i agree Beanster, i bought Bionic when it came out saturday morning and must say that im extremely disappointed in it.
Kisschasy back to #30??
Katy Perry did a fantastic vocal performance at the MTVMA, one of her best live performances.

America agrees, and today "California Gurls" peaks at #1 on the U.S Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Rowland's "Commander" has been in the Itunes Top 50, since Tuesday.

So hopefully that will count, and she might debut anywhere in the Top 50, i don't know if she will debut? it's very unpredictable.
Commander should debut in the top 100, but not the top 50, if it can sustain or improve on its current iTunes position then it will debut next Sunday.
13. Bieber - Never Say Never (WTF, this makes Australia retarded)
19. Glee Cast - Poker Face (WTF, WHY, it makes Gagas version look brilliant)
24. Cody Simpson - IYIYIY (Glad to see this crap drop even if the guy lives in the same state as me)

The Top part of the ITunes Chart is too Urban, we need more Fireflies and Hey Soul Sisters at the Top end, at least they will bbe remembered in 5 Years unlike all this Urban waste.

I hate that Poker Face Version,Glee's Bad Romance is so much better,at least GaGa's BR is back at #29.
Hey Soul what? Forgotten already
5 Years for people with half a brain.

I Cant Belive how much Need You Now and Fight For This Love has dropped few days ago it was inside the top 50
dissapointing mono,they are both great songs.
Half a what? Your gonna have to speak more dumbly for me lifter...

Sad that both are dropping, both are better than basically everything in the current top 50.
Just wondering if anybody has any ideas if Kylie's record company is going to let All The Lovers chart next week. I want my purchase from i Tunes to count towards her charting position on thr ARIA charts but am worried they will hold off letting it chart until the physical release or something
Interesting...
Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers #34
Adam Lambert - If I Had You #55

can someone post a link to the itunes full chart,the link above does not work for me anymore...

Smile is being used in ads for the upcoming season of Packed To The Rafters, ala I'm Yours or Rock And Roll.

BOOOOOOO!! Glee Version of Poker Face is charting

Anyway, The other movers are quite interesting, I thought Train's newie would just hang around the 50-100 area like every other rock song that gets overplayed by radio. Uncle Kracker and Scouting for Girls I'm surprised are quite high up too.

Looks like Kylie would get a plain top 20 debut which is a good effort anyway. Alejandro hasn't rebound that much either. It might be higher at the end of the week due to video sales (I personally hope not )
I want the link to view songs outside of the top 100...so weird it is not working anymore...
Let me know if there are any particular songs you want to know and I'll be happy to post their positions.
when you click on the link and the new window pops up, as it loads, change the part of the text of the address bar which says limit=0 to limit=200 or limit=1000 or something else[then press enter]. See if that works.
The Glee version had a peak of 13 to the best of my knowledge. It should manage a Top 50 debut on Sunday (fingers crossed). I like it just cause it's a different arrangement (and yes GaGa's little monsters I know she has performed it in that arrangment - it's nice that the general public can be exposed to it).

I hope Kylie gets a physical release to help her get a Top 10 positioning for her song. It's a much better lead single than 2 Hearts, which I personally felt did not accurately reflect the feel of the X album.

I don't think the Alejandro video is having the same impact that Telephone is. A number of GaGa fans I spoe to today think it's terrible and that GaGa has lost the plot a bit.

I'm enjoying Adam Lambert's newie.
You're right, it has peaked above its current point, I haven't checked the chart too often lately and hadn't really monitored Glee's run.
I did that Dave,it just keeps telling me to subscribe and when i do it does nothing...
45.adam lambert - if i had you; new peak ^_^
whos seen the 'my first kiss' video, its pretty average
I agree bsb, it's very cheap. I didn't mind it when used in Don't Trust Me, but here it's just a tad painful, but it could be because it has Kesha in it, which brings it down to her level
lol, ke$ha wasnt the problem here xD, it just made 3OH!3 look like a indie group, and not an A class pop group, which they are; I mean look at their hits;;

Dont trust me #4(?)
Starstrukk #4(?)
Blah Blah Blah #3

^Honestly, if they want a 4th consecutive top 5 hit they may want to try harder
Enrique Iglesias cracks the top 10 at #10!!
Chemical rush (brian mcfadden) smashes up to #15!!
25.Paramore - The only exception (No one seems to of noticed its decent climb so im noting it not )
44.Brian McFadden - Chemical rush [radio mix] (with these surges could brian get another top 5 hit in the coming weeks?)
74.Ne*Yo - Beautiful monster (new peak)
119.Rihanna - Rockstar101 (lets watch this over the coming days..)
brian definetely leaps thanx to he's performance on got talent.
@bsb, I noticed Paramore's surge in my post when they were at #23

Also,

18. Uncle Kracker - Smile
41. Gyroscope - Baby, I'm Gettin' Better (& 96)
50. Kele - Tenderoni
53. Children Collide - Jellylegs
61. LMFAO & Lil Jon - Shots
68. Tinie Tempah - Pass Out (Rebound I think, can't remember it this high in a while)

If you combine both versions of Chemical Rush, it would be at #7 right now.
it's only been selling well since last night,it has no chance at the top ten!
Last edited:
I'm surprised IF I HAD YOU (Adam Lambert) isn't charging towards the Top 10. Perhaps a sleeper hit for now?
how is the radio mix of brian mcfaddens chemical rush in the top 30 when its listed as an "album only" track in the chart and you cant buy it???
It is a two track single - you have to buy the whole package which is still only $1.69
thats such a smart idea LOL!
i reckon if brian can go top 5 with his first version, and keep consistent with the 2nd, he may have a consecutive #1 yet!
Chemical Rush is horrible! Toxic vocals and annoying beats, nothing to like in it, at least Bob the Builder was catchy..
I don't like Chemical Rush. Just Say So is much better.

A quick bandit.fm update!

1. Scouting For Girls - This Ain't A Love Song (Massive sales surge due to discount, new peak)
2. Amy Meredith - Lying (Steady at Peak, also has a discount at bandit.fm)
3. B.o.B - Airplanes (Re-Peak)
4. Usher - OMG (Sales Decline)
5. Katy Perry - California Gurls

10. Travie McCoy - Billionaire (New Peak)
13. Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers (Debut!)
14. Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (New Peak!)



Note: For those that are unaware, I post this because this provides another aspect of sales from another place besides Itunes. Bandit.fm most likely makes up of about 5-10% of total sales so it may be good to factor this in your predictions etc.

Chemical Rush is boring, Just Say So was a good Pop Track whether you liked it or not but Chemical Rush doesn't have Hit Appeal. Hopefully it drops after everyone who watched AGT brought it.
Chem Rush isn't THAT bad, Just Say So is a little better though.

Really hope Lambert can go really well

Lady Antebellum, Alexandra Burke and Cheryl Cole really should be big hits!
I'm really surprised Cherly Cole isn't have great success with Fight For This Love, it's coming off the back of a huge hit and I personally think it is 100% better than 3 Words. Is radio not playing Fight For This Love? Maybe 3 Words was only a hit because of the obsession with anything remotely connected with BEP

I can understand why Alexandra isn't getting a smash even if it is a bloody brilliant song. For some reason Australians appear to have ditched british music for the crap coming out of the US, even though the British r&b scen is infinietely better than the US scene.

I too am surprised about the lack of interest in Need You Know, it has 'massive crossover hit' written all over it.

I'm not impressed with Chemical Rush but it may grow on me and I am really enjoy Lambert's newie.
Australia are often stupid and embrace crap music and then just pay no attention to all of that pop brilliance that you mentioned.

It seems you need a US rapper in your songs to be big, but even that's not guaranteed (Alexandra Burke). Maybe if Need You Now featured BEP or GaGa or something it could become a hit
Fight for this Love is great but 3 Words is much better. That's not because of will.i.am, it's a great song and I'd probably prefer it if she sang his part too (although it would sound a bit awkward ).

I don't think All Night Long is very good. Bad Boys was much better, and radio played that, and there was a CDS, and it flopped, how would we expect All Night Long to have success?

I like Need You Now but I'm one of few, surprisingly, to think it doesn't have much hit potential here. It was overrated in the US where it made #2 I think, but they have a big market for country music. I don't dislike it but it's not a big hit.

Chemical Rush is toxic garbage, one of the worst songs in the chart ever. Hate hate hate it, worse than crap like Bob the Builder.

Adam Lambert (If I Had You) is meh, not too bad but not much HP and nowhere near its preceder.
does HP stand for High Profile or something?
Hit potential I think
Lol If I Had You is AWESOME, the best song on adams whole album, whataya want from me was not that great in my opinion

the 3 songs that ppl seem to be rooting for (all night long, need you now, fight for this love) is prob not doing well, because australia is in a different scene; look at airplanes, California Gurls, and OMG; the 3 we love arent like it; So we are for now in a minority group unfortunately

ALSO; i cant believe gypsy wasnt a hit either! australia has not made good choices recently

Alexandra Burke has the most potential to hit our charts and smash them imo
Yes, HP stands for Hit Potential just like Hijinx said, sorry.

If I Had You isn't that bad but Whataya Want from Me is much better. I do think that Adam is a bit overrated, but it's a matter of #2 peak and #10 year to date VS. a peak in the fifties (so far), on my charts..

I'm not in the minority, and I've never rooted for those songs or thought they would be big, lol.

Oh, and Gypsy sucks.

Of those 3 songs commonly rooted for I think FFTL has most potential. ANL is not that good and doesnt really suit Aus's market, same with NYN. I do know that FFTL has been "stalling" for months, but it has most potential, in my opinion.
Of the 3 FFTL is the best pop song, All Night Long is actually quite plain, it does have that hit sound, and I thought having Pitbull on the track would help. I actually think Need You Now has the most, Australia does like pop with a hint of country and with the right promotion it could be huge.

Gypst is average at best, her last good songs were Don't Bother and Hips Don't Lie years back.

If I Had You is great, but can't be compared to Whataya Want From Me.
lol, all about opinion really !
I agree that Fight for this Love is the best of those three songs (#4 peak for me, versus #22 (ANL) and #8 (NYN)). I don't think Alexandra Burke's track has much of a hit sound, and IMO Pitbull ruins the track. I've mentioned NYN above, I don't think it has that potential.

She Wolf was great, Give It Up to Me good, but those tracks were nothing compared to the awesome Hips Don't Lie.
I think All Night Long is a weak song for Alexandra compared to Bad Boys,I love FFTL & NYN,dissapointed they will not be hits

Thanks for posting the list, Nateboi!

Some of those songs, should be allowed to chart soon.

I wish if each record label would make a release dates list for songs that are eligible for chart entry, and mention when they are allowed to chart?
I wish all songs could enter when ever they have the right amount to do so, not when the record company wants.
Thanks to Hey Hey It's Saturday Train got back in the Top 10 and also at #25 with their New Single.

Sampled the new Eminem and it's shit of course thanks to Rihannas horrid vocals. Stop buying this!!

Also Sampled Crossfire and it's not bad and thank god All The Lovers dropped, keep it up.
so not very good signs for Kylie......a big drop after just 2 weeks, why, its a great song

Lifter, maybe some people have different musical opinions to you.
Last edited:
I think he knows that
I haven't heard it but I support anything to knock California Gurls from #1.
I'd be surprised if you preferred Eminem to Katy Perry.
Overall, I prefer Eminem easily.
Well when he said "don't buy this" I couldn't tell.
Love the way you lie was at #1 for like 30 minutes, just for the information
When was that bsb?
Yes Daniel010 I knew that. I been around long enough to know that.
it was at like 2 or something Hijinx,

Daniel09; Yes, just the same as you need to respect lifter's opinions, he has very different opinions to quite alot of us on this site but it still works both ways you know, you need to expect him not to agree because you 2 like COMPLETELY different music

I personally have a very 'pop' taste with a side of some rock and some indie
That's a lie, as a person who was awake at that time I know it wasn't.
Great BSB, I really hope Eminem gets back there!

My taste is basically hip-hop/rap and pop as you'd all know.


Hijinx: I assumed it was 2pm?

BS I was awake at 2pm and it wasn't #1

Timbaland/Katy Perry's If We Ever Meet Again is #101 on itunes,does that mean its gonna crash out of the top 50?


and Katy was way ahead on popularity bars.

Has anyone else noticed Dynamite disappeared from the iTunes top songs? They've removed every single track from Taio Cruz's album except for the digital booklet.

lol i didn't notice that,they must have hit the wrong button?
lol, i dont know exactly the time; and i would appreciate you not calling me a LIAR for it, coz that just makes you look like a dickwad

jeez when mistakes are made ppl just love to jump dont they

hehe, the itunes thing aint loading for me; does that mean break your heart isnt showing either??
well it was never #1,case closed,move on.
The thing is that whenever a song gets to #1 on iTunes, this forum gets across it very quickly, and you came across as just saying it to make it look like you had a scoop. For the record, it wasn't at number one at 2am or 2pm, as Chris said, the popularity bars were too far off.
iTunes Top 10 with Popularity Bars
1. California Gurls - Katy Perry ft Snoop Dogg (Day 19) (100)

No worries, anton. I seem to be doing iTunes updates every day, does anyone have a problem with this?

Here's the current top five with popularity bars (2010.06.26 21:13)
1. California Gurls - Katy Perry ft Snoop Dogg (Day 19) (100)

4. Smile - Uncle Kracker (56)
5. Love the Way You Lie - Eminem ft Rihanna (57)
Nope,as long as you don't have a problem with me doing some too
wait - how is #5 pop bars higher than #4 pop bars!?
I have no idea BSB, but it is (it's not a mistake on my part).
Sometimes they aren't updated at the same time, the number is usually updated first, but sometimes it's the other way around.
All those popularity figures I just posted remained the same since this morning, whereas Love the Way You Lie suffered -7.
Itunes Update: Mon 28th June, 12:15am

Uncle Crack! peaks at #2, WTF! a rapid sales surge!
Shakira peaks in the Top 30! can't wait until the Closing Ceremony performance on July 12th?

Katy Perry remains at #1, for the 21st day! please stay there!

**************************************************

Current Top 5:

01.Katy Perry - California Gurls (commencing 21st day at #1)
02.Uncle Crack - Smile Bitch! (New Peak, that's high enough)
03.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (Former #1 peak)
04.Travis McCoy - Billionaire (Former #3 peak, please surge!)
05.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (New Peak? a dark horse for the next #1, a really great song!)

**************************************************

29.Shakira - Waka Waka (New Peak?)

Other movements of note

22. Train - If It's Love
23. Adam Lambert - If I Had You
53. Train - Drops of Jupiter
66. Bon Jovi - Livin' On a Prayer
96. K-Ci & JoJo - All My Life

Still have no idea what's going on with the last two.
All Night Long up to 70.
There was a 60 minutes special on Bon Jovi.
Good to see Smile beat Airplanes to #2, only Katy Perry to go not that I like Smile much anyway.
28.Waka Waka (new peak for this GREAT track !!!)
Annoyed with "Uncle Crack" getting #2. Airplanes is a million times better, and didn't rely on a stupid TV show's promotion to get it this high.

Waka Waka is RUBBISH!
Katy Perry looks after the #1 position! stay there, honey!
Uncle Crack!! remains at #2! Smile Bitch!
Katy Perry's track is miles better than Uncle Kracker's. For once, I'm happy Katy's #1. Airplanes is amazing, however, why couldn't that smash instead.
I think Airplanes will have more longetivity then Cali Gurls in the top 100.
Last edited:
I sure hope so. Well, look at I Kissed a Girl, that was sorta short-lived (before the rebound), and VERY short-lived in some other countries. Hopefully CG is like that. Katy's VERY overrated. B.o.B's just an awesome song full stop.
Last edited:
Great to see Smile race up to two, I hope it can go to number one. It's much better than the overrated California Skanks, and even the decent but boring Airplanes. For those who measure the popualarity bars, is Smile gaining on Katy or not?

Funny that just as I start to hate Americano less, it begins to fall. Maybe I should tell myself I like Katy's song too.
Bars

Katy - 100
Uncle - 81
B.o.B - 71

Keep in mind that 2 & 3 were virtually equal last night so it's definitely gaining
Damn that stupid Uncle! It's one of the worst songs in the top ten, and even that overrated California Gurls is much better!
It hasn't been played on radio here once, all this is because it's used in one stupid ad. What are charts getting to!
Thanks Hijinx. I knew it had extended it's lead over Airplanes, but I wasn't sure if that was due to it gaining and closing in on Katy or Airplanes dropping back.
Smile is shit and so old. Hope Katy holds #1. Nothying else good on the way there!

Waka Waka is complete shit too. Shakira can have some really sucky songs.
I would like to see Enrique, Travis, or Eminem & Rihanna peak at #1 soon.

B.O.B had it's chance to peak at #1 on Aria, but lost it.
It will hang around in the Itunes Top 5, for a while.

Uncle Crack's "Smile Bitch!" is having an unusual sales rise, how long will the hype last?

Yolanda Be Cool & DCup Bra's song "We No Speak Americano" should hopefully exit the Top 10. IT'S TIME FOR A SALES DECLINE!
I 150% agree with Mykl (as Airplanes isn't on the way )

All 3 you mentioned Brandon are better than Katy. Travie and Em/Ri are the best of those. Poor B.o.B

I hope that hype dies, stupid TV promo.

DCup Bra? I agree, i'm sick of it now.
Taylor Swift's "Today Was Not A Fairytale", B.O.B & Hayley's "Airplanes", and Eminem's "Not Afraid", all have the same Aria chart fate.

All 3 of these songs peaked at #1 on Itunes, and that's good, but failed to reach #1 on Aria charts, oh well.
^ You missed The Midnight Beast, either intentionally or not.

Smile is up to 83%
Today Was a Fairytale was quite bland. Airplanes is AMAZING, and Not Afraid is almost as good however, I wish they'd've gone #1, especially Airplanes, that spent quite a while (11 days) #1 on iTunes, and ages at #2. Eminem only spent 3 days there, Taylor 5 and Midnight Beast 6.
Yes, i did miss Midnight Beast intentionally, it was just a parody.
An awesome parody
today was a fairytale is not bland, id have to say airplanes is the boring hit. hayley williams sounds like she recorded it while she was on the toilet . and midnight beast would have been the most undeserving number one of ALL time if it had made it to ARIA no.1. glad it didnt, as it was funny for about all of 5 minutes
Today was a Fairytale is nothing special. Sounds like her other hits, repeats TWAF around 16 times (thanks anton) and is just quite continuous overall. Airplanes is fantastic. I wouldn't say she recorded it while on the toilet, I don't hear any toilet-related backing noises, but she does sound like she was forced to sing on it. B.o.B's rap is the great part. The TiK ToK parody was great - nowhere near songs like Airplanes - but it was funny for MORE than five minutes.
Good to know I can help 392
No problems, I actually read that review of yours, and managed to remember that
Just recounting the number of times she says the title on a lyrics website and it's apparently 15. I have no idea now. I originally hoped she would say it 15 times because of the irony with her other song, "Fifteen"
I just went and counted too, and I got 15 too. Ah well, the less days of fairies the better
JB's somebody to love is an alright song,the best i've heard from Justin Bieber yet,both versions are #55 & #56

Flo Rida/David Guetta's Club Can't Handle Me is #81


I was trying to DL ne-yo's new single (couldn't find it) so i listened to a preview on bandit.fm and i'm glad i couldn't find it,its so horrible and very bland for a ne-yo song.

Smile is up to 88%, we may have a new number one soon

Edit: less than half an hour later, it's at 89%

I hope so, rather would see Smile going #1 than California Gurls.
I do quite like Justin Bieber 'Somebody to Love,' I probably agree with you there that it's his best, although the Usher remix is just terrible; he ruins the song.

Flo Rida's newie is such a letdown. It's not a bad song, but for Flo's standards I would've expected much, much better.

I love 'Beautiful Monster.' I'll send you the track if you want It's not his best, but it's an awesome song.

Damn, 'Smile' is old and rubbish (just like the artist ). I wish it'd stop that increase, I'm buying Katy's song as soon as Smile goes #1 (if it does). I know it's Day 22 for that overrated thing, but, 'Smile' just sucks. Why not 'Airplanes'?

EDIT: Smile is down to 88! YES!!!!!!!!!!!
Last edited:
so what if she says today was a fairytale however many times mate, its the name of the song. lets put it into an example im sure you will understand more. just dance. how many times does gaga say "just dance" during the track? does this make the song any better or worse, no its just the way it is.

as for tik tok parody well i guess some people are easier pleased than others.

but anyway thats the beauty of opinions, everyone has one
or jay sean - down, he says it 76 times in that song

392 - this is odd, I AGREE WITH YOU!?!!??! haha; airplanes is most deffinately deserving of a #1, but look on the brightside its having ALOT of longevity inside that top 3
18 times GaGa says 'just dance' in the song. Saying 'TWAF' annoys me as that's 7 syllables. Something like Just Dance or Down is only 2-1 syllables, which is a significant difference.

Haha, BSB. True, most songs aren't that long-lived up there especially when not being chart toppers.
iTunes Top 20 update

1. Katy Perry - California Gurls

57. Little Red - Rock It
67. Charice - Pyramid
70. Miley Cyrus - Stay
90. Underworld - Scribble

I think that's everything
Oh 392 you crack me up with how whenever GaGa is pulled up with something you have said annoys you with another artist, it's perfectly fine.
Happy to see California Gurls dying, but that means Smile is increasing even more than it appears and will be #1 for a while probably
I love Somebody to Love, but the Usher mix is terrible.... but at least it gets some success, Bieber's best song.

Haha BillyBrett
Smile down to 94%

It always seems to go lower with me than Hijinx, maybe my ruler expanded

1.California gurls (still at #1; expecting to be dethroned soon!)
15.If I Had You (new peak, rapid sales surge)
20.Can't Be Tamed (stalling, can it go higher with a little promo?)
24.Lying (sales surge!!!)
25.Club cant handle me (should peak around 15-10?)
27.Alejandro (sales decline, YES!!!)
29.Big Jet Plane (this could go top 20 !!!)
31.Crossfire (new peak!)
37.Just Be Good To Green (awesome peak! keep rising!)
38.All the lovers (rapid sales decline, maybe her promo visit will recover it?)
42.iYiYi (this crap is almost out of the top 50, YES!)
46.Never Say Never (thank GOD, this is a flop from the bieber !!!!)
50.Alexandra burke -all night long (cracked the top 50, YES!!! will this have a similar chart run to 3 words?)


63.Charic ft. Iyaz - pyramid (new peak?)
85.Ne*Yo -Beautiful monster (sales decline)
101.Scissor sisters - fire with fire (UGH! turn this crap off, new peak?)
109.John Butler trio - revolution (is this a new single or what?)
150.Mumford and sons - winter wind (cmon, go higher!!)

Every thursday evening i post an iTunes update of songs yet to crack the top 50 in ARIA but i think i will stop as 3 updates already have been posted today alone which is stupid!
lol stop whinging nateboi haha
I never noticed that it's a particular day NateBoi, but I say you should keep on with it, I always find yours interesting
Nate has a point, most of us have iTunes, we don't really need eight million updates a day.

Great to see Brandon Flowers in the top fifty, I don't think he's been in there long enough to debut in the ARIA top fifty this week, but hopefully sales will hold or improve.

Interesting to see Big Jet Plane surging all of a sudden, were they on Hey Hey or something?
**THE TOP TEN UPDATE**
1. California Gurls
2. Smile
3. Airplanes
4. I Like It
5. Billionaire
6. Love The Way You Lie
7. We No Speak Americano
8. Gettin' Over You
9. OMG
10. Break Your Heart
I agree with Bluezombie, and I know I am a victim of posting iTunes updates a bit too often.
Still recording the daily top 20? The constant updates are a little silly though, if you look, the only difference between my update & Brandon's is that #'s 8 & 9 switched places.
Yay, Alexandra Burke up to 37.
I Would rather Smile be at #1 then Katy Perry even though both are boring. Airplanes is worse then both of them and is another bland Urban Hit. Meanwhile, it has been over a week since Train performed on Hey Hey and they are still in the Top 15 ITunes before that they were around #16-#25, I didn't expect it to remain in The Top 15 this long after their performence. Hopefully it can outsell the 3 Tracks I mentioned in the 1st 2 Sentences on the Year End Chart, it better.
No, actually, Hijinx. I stopped a while ago after missing several days, but anyway, I can easily get that chart with the ten million updates every day, as well as looking at the ARIA Download chart.
Itunes Update: Sat 3rd July, 12:55am

Chart commentary:

Katy Perry remains at #1! where she belongs! earlier in the week she thanked her Aussie fans on her Twitter, for making her song the #1 song of the Winter 2010! oh! thankyou Katy!

She is unstoppable! and her career reviving hit "California Gurls" has been #1 in the U.S Itunes chart for several weeks.

She is outselling all her rivals, including Uncle Crack and HER Ex-Boyfriend Travis McCoy.
"California Gurls" has smashed digital sales records again in the U.S!! Well done! the song also peaked at #1 in several other countries, including the U.K!

Uncle Krack, is still cracking under the pressure! stalled at #2 and not going anywhere. He is up against Katy Perry! who has a millions of fans around the world.
My early forecast is that Enrique Iglesias will soon challenge him, and takeover as the next #2 single.

Enrique & Pitbull's "I Like It", has just entered the U.S Itunes Top 10, a breakthrough for him, thanks to Pitbull for his assistance.
Such a good dance/club song, very uplifting with an excellent melody and strong vocals! he has a powerful voice!
Finally! a career reviving hit for Enrique, which will be a popular hit for the Northern Hemisphere Summer season!
Enrique gets the global success, he deserves!!
A candidate to become the next Itunes #2, and eventually he will takeover the #1 position! i hope.

After several weeks in the Top 3, B.O.B & Hayley's "Airplanes", has started it's descent slowly. The song did peak at #1, and peaked at #2 on the Aria and Airplay charts. Another case of a song that what WAS #1 on Itunes, but NEVER to be #1 on Aria.

LOL Brandon!
What's with Closure suddenly having a sales recovery? #29 right now, it was #54 not long ago. Not complaining though
Thanks for the popularity bars update!

"I Like It" is catching up to "Smile Bitch"

I'll be expecting Enrique to peak at #1 soon!
I doubt Enrique will make #1, even though Katy isn't that strong, I don't think Enrique will be one.

How can you not like Mike Posner, Brandon, it's an amazing song, better than most of the crap you like
Drake and Shontelle's hits are great too.
No way! i really like music from Drake and i still haven't heard Mike Posner's song yet.

I was just making fun of the song titles.

My favourite songs from Drake are:

1.Unthinkable (feat. Alicia Keys)
2.Miss Me
3.Over
4.Find Your Love

and many more, i'm buying the album soon.
My favourite of Drake is easily Find Your Love. Listen to Mike Posner, he is cooler than you
Drake top 5:

1 Find Your Love
2 Forever
3 Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)
4 Miss Me
5 Best I Ever Had
a position i noticed

33.Jessies girl - glee cast (sales surge!!)

i think its gonna do better than dont stop believin
huh? didnt dont stop believin go top 5?

has anyone bought night work by the scissor sisters. im loving the album
Itunes Update: Mon 5th July, 6:15pm

Chart commentary:

A NEW #2 SONG!! FINALLY!

As predicted, Enrique Iglesias has taken over the #2 position from Uncle Krack!
I have faith in Enrique, and i really hope that he peaks at #1 soon. "I Like It" really has potential to be #1 in Australia and many other countries.

Uncle Krack has finally cracked under the pressure, and falls to #3.
Due to high demand from fans, Enrique and Pitbull's "I Like It"
now peaks at #2! finally!!

Katy Perry remains at #1, a record sales blitz for her!! securing a 4th week atop the Aria charts, this Sunday.

Miley Cyrus returns to the Top 20!! Welcome back! and
30h!3 & Kesha also return for another attempt to enter the Top 10!

***********************************************

Current Top 5: subject to change on an hourly basis

01.Katy Perry - California Gurls (end of 28th fay at #1)

03.Uncle Krack - Smile Bitch! (Former #2, sales decline at last!)
04.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (Former #1 peak)
05.Travis McCoy - Billionaire (Former #3 peak)

******************************************

Returning to the Top 20:

Hopefully both these songs will peak in the Top 10, eventually!

13.30H!3 & Kesha - My First Kiss (New Peak? sales recovery)
17.Miley Cyrus - Can't Be Tamed (New Peak? sales rebound due to album hype)
I doubt Enrique will get #1. Nice to see him overtake the master of crack.
Kylie Minogue - Aphrodite

Exclusive update on her Itunes Albums chart progress in Australia and many other countries.

"Aphrodite" is tipped to debut at #1 this Sunday on the National and Physical Albums chart, and knock Eminem off the top spot, which could be challenging.

Both versions of Aphrodite occupy the Top 2 positions!
An upcoming promo tour for Kylie, she is currently in the U.K, and her new single "All The Lovers" peaks at #3 on the Itunes Singles chart.
I'll be expecting some Aria nominations for Kylie, no more snubs!

Eminem's album is not in the Top 10, WTF!

Loving the new Scissor Sisters work, definitely their best yet.
The album is not bad, and I am loving Fire With Fire!

I like Hero by Enrique alright, but I hope it doesn't follow in Yeah's footsteps. I don't want ancient songs hitting the top fifty.
Yay, Charice. Surprised at Hero coming back. Scissor Sisters is terrible.
Some interesting developments at the moment

3. Eminem & Rihanna - Love the Way You Lie
15. Paramore - The Only Exception
27. Thirsty Merc - Mousetrap Heart

Enrique Iglesias is expected to peak at #1 very soon!
"I Like It" is recieving a lot of radio airplay and the video is great! two versions are charting!
Uncle Crack has cracked under the pressure, and falls to #5 after a sudden sales loss!

********************************************

20.Flo Rida - Club Can't Handle Me (New Peak!)

Has potential to be #1! excellent upbeat song!
Who is the female guest back-up vocalist? is it Fergie? does Guetta sing on this track?

29.Gyroscope - Baby, I'm Gettin' Better (New Peak?)
31.Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers (Album Version, New Peak)
33.Charice & Iyaz - Pyramid (Former #32 peak)

36.Maroon 5 - Misery (New Peak)
A dark horse for the next #1? fantastic comeback song! Adam Levine's vocals are flawless! and unique.

53.Professor Green & Lily Allen - Just Good to Be Green (Former #50 peak)
Welcome back! Lily Allen please don't retire! a lot of Greens party members might like this song!

95.Kanye West - Power (New Peak)

The official comeback song! excellent vocals! Welcome back Kanye! a VMA comeback performance in Sept?

96.Flight Facilities - Crave You (New Peak)

An anthem for all flight attendants, who are craving something. Funny name for a band! interesting song concept! who are they craving? what inspired the name of the band? in-flight facilities such as?
err, Kayne's been in the 70s & Flight Facilities have been in the 80s. A bit of a slump on both parts.
5.Billionaire (overtaken smile)
6.smile (continued sales decline)
18.Lying (sales surge)
34.Misery (New peak =D)
Love the Way You Lie is now #1, but more importantly, California Gurls isn't!

Itunes Update: Friday 9th July, 11:15pm

Chart commentary:

A new #1 song! "Love The Way You Lie" by Eminem & Rihanna takes over the #1 position from Katy Perry, due to a rise in radio airplay spins! and high demand from fans.
The song was rush released and it's the official 2nd digital single, to be released on Itunes worldwide!!

This is both Eminem and Rihanna's 2nd #1 Itunes chart topper, Rihanna previously peaked at #1 with "Rude Boy" back in March, and Eminem peaked at #1 in May, with "Not Afraid. So that's two #1 songs each! congratulations!

The other favourite for the next #1 hit is Enrique Iglesias, he is currently holding the #3 position.
I expected Enrique to peak at #1, before Eminem & Rihanna did, but it's a close race in the Top 3, and anything can happen.

"California Gurls", was #1 for 31 days!! becoming the 2nd longest running Itunes chart topper, only two days behind Train's "Hey, Soul Sister", which was #1 for 33 days!
Katy Perry has become this years most successful female artist on Itunes!

Despite the sales loss, Perry was at #1 from Saturday to Thursday, so this should secure her a 4th week atop the Aria charts!

The dark horse is rising! Flo Rida's addictive new song
"Club Can't Handle Me", peaks at #16. Has potential to peak at #1, such an upbeat club song!

yes the only exception #14 is a new peak, reckon it'll crack top 10
omg, birds of tokyo - plans is at #45
Eminem & Rihanna fans join forces!! LTWYL will be commercially successful worldwide!
We have a few new entries into the top 50.

25. Taio Cruz - Dynamite
28. Maroon 5 - Misery (not a new entry but it has gone up!)
32. Birds of Tokyo - Plans
38. Taio Cruz and Kesha - Dirty Picture
47. Just Good To Be Green?

There's a couple of Glee entries too but I'm not sure if they're new or not.

I really hope they chart Dynamite and not Dirty Picture,JBTBG has been top 50 for awhile
Last edited:
Dirty Picture is my fave off taio, I hope its the 2nd single here

new entry:
31. Bang Bang Bang (feat. Q-Tip & MNDR) - Mark Ronson & The Business Intl

This song actually isnt bad, heard it first on the hot40 with kyle and jacki'o (who is now pregnant btw )
Last edited:
What's wrong with Dirty Picture That and Dynamite are both great tracks. I hope they both chart. Dirty Picture is the second single anyway.
nothing wrong with it,i like it just prefer Dynamite,ah well Dynamite will chart higher if the record company let's it.
I know daniel, Dirty Picture is awesome
Dirty Picture is a bland, annoying, horrible track and the Hot30 hosts agree with me. Dynamite is amazing.
To me, Dynamite is quite meh but Dirty Picture.... Yuk!
lol, tbh 392 just coz the hot30 hosts hate it doesnt mean me & daniel are going to
Dynamite is....DY-NA-MITE
On another note...
What is with Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie single cover?
Eminem looks like he has breasts...
OMG! i noticed that too, Nateboi

The front page of this website, i saw the single cover art and i was thinking, what the fuck?

He has mini man boobs! ha ha!

But Eminem has come a long way, he did gain some weight during his hiatus, away from the music scene.

Eminem has lost weight, and hardest places on the male body to lose weight are the pecs and stomach.

I'm sure that Eminem is working out and will lose those man boobs, especially when he prepares for his tour.

LOL!
Some big moves today

7. Adam Lambert - If I Had You
18. Mark Ronson - Bang Bang Bang
22. Taio Cruz - Dynamite
25. Birds of Tokyo - Plans
35. Taio Cruz - Dirty Picture
22.Birds of tokyo - plans (NEW PEAK!! !!!)
Great to see Taio's newie's moving up, same with Mark Ronson, especially for Lambert

Dirty Picture was really good for a short time, but grew old fast, Dynamite at it's peak isn't as good so far, but I'm not tiring of it so fast
Mark Ronson #12 & Birds of Tokyo # 19
Mark Ronson #12 WOW.

I can't believe he's finally struck our charts, his 3 big singles from Version didn't do much here
Mark Ronson is nothing special, and by the way it's #11 now.

AWESOME to see DYNAMITE #15 though, AWESOME SONG!

Wow at Burds of Tokyo's position too.
wtf that Mark Ronson song sucks,yes at Dynamite glad it's doing better then dirty picture,about time Birds Of Tokyo get a hit

also Ciara Ride #51 (new single?)

and for you 392! Mike Posner is #100


I'm also glad Need You Now is back to #39,top 50 re-entry hopefully!

and doesn't the john mayer - half of my heart single Feature Taylor Swift? Itunes does not mention this
Last edited:
Yay at Antebellum at #39, same with Ronson up to #11.

Ride is indeed a new single for Ciara. I can guarantee it'll flop, it's even struggling in the US.
OMG YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO MIKE POSNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#100 is better than nothing

Half Of My Heart features one or two lines of Taylor, they probably realised they don't need to mention it.

16.Taio Cruz - Dynamite (New Peak, 2nd or 3rd single)

So the 2nd and 3rd singles are being released at the same time?

SHAKIRA CHART PROGRESS!

24.Shakira - Waka Waka (This Time for Africa) (New Peak?)

In front of an estimated 84,000 fans, live in the stadium, Shakira performed this world cup anthem!! with
100% pure live vocals. Flawless dance routine, the choreography was brilliant! loved the flash mobs in front of the stage.
Shakira performed the track, full of confidence and energy! she recieved exposure from an estimated 1 billion!! viewers worldwide!! OMG! who tuned in to watch the closing ceremony and Grand Final match.

"Waka Waka" is currently #1 on 10 other Itunes charts:

Netherlands
Spain
Germany
Portugal
Italy
France
Switzerland
Luxembourg
Belgium
Finland

"Waka Waka" has a sales rebound this week! combining the digital and physical single sales figures, she is guaranteed a peak in the Top 20 Aria charts this Sunday! i hope.
"She Wolf", peaked at #18 in 2009, will the song surpass this peak?

32.Taio Cruz & Kesha - Dirty Picture (New Peak!)
98.Taio Cruz & Kesha - Dirty Picture (EP Version)



Taylor does the backing vocals of Half Of My Heart but no one notices

Also, Love The Fall is up to #55
Crossfire is staying put at #59
Half Of My Heart is up to #66
Closer To The Edge #90
Cooler Than Me #102
10.Mark ronson!!!
15.Birds of tokyo (holy shit could this be a top 10 hit for the brilliant birds of tokyo!?!?!)
41.Ciara - Ride
Lots of changes on ITunes since I was last here, Mark Ronson, Birds Of Tokyo and Taio Cruz. Sampled them all none of them are interesting.
Some more interesting movements

4. Adam Lambert - If I Had You
12. Taio Cruz - Dynamite
17. Birds Of Tokyo - Plans
22. Usher - DJ Got us fallin In Love Again
25. iYiYi
38. Lady Antebellum - Need You Now
44. Little Red - Rock It
45 + 80. Michael Paynter - Love The Fall
52. Brandon Flowers - Crossfire
56. Muse - Uprising (Rebound!)
95. Nickelback - Burn It To The Ground

Interesting to note that the ABC Remix and Drops of Jupiter are STILL in the top 100. There's quite a lot of Bon Jovi songs below 100 too.
hey Lifter,you can not judge a song by sampling,listen to the full song then tell your opinion.
Whenever I have sampled a Track it usually tells me whether the full version it is good or not. Some are better then the sample but in the end they just end up average.
I do the same. I sample it first, and if the sample grabs me I'll go listen to the full song immediately. If the sample doesn't grab me, I'm happy to wait until whenever it happens that I hear the full song.

Interesting to see Birds of Tokyo going so well. Plans is alright, but I preferred The Saddest Thing I Know. Anyone know if there's a special reason this song is going so well (promotion etc) or if it's just that people are really liking it?
Yes, Dyanmite is nearly in the top 10. IMO, his best song yet, better than Break Your Heart.

Surprised, yet happy to Newton Faulkner's "I Hate Mondays" at number 8 in Itune's Chart.
Is it already?? YAY!!!!! Fantastic Song!

2 hours after release and it's already at #8
Last edited:
Can someone explain where the Newton Faulkner song came from. According to the comments it's some sort of H&A radio skit or something. Up to #6 now and has no popularity bar
Yeah it is. Someone (forgot who) had the idea of making a song called "I Hate Mondays" and they (Hamish and Andy) built off that. Harry Connick Junior came up with the original tune and Newton Faulkner finalized it. It was announced that it was released at the end of today's show
I hate mondays up to #5 now, holy shit
Maybe they're advertising the song in the Hot30 too. Those two shows as well as the Hour of Power have MASSIVE audiences. (Apparently the Hot30 has 1.5 million listeners. Quite possible but I'm not sure if I should believe that)
The iTunes charts are pretty weird at the moment, all these songs coming out of nowhere..
4. I Hate Mondays - Newton Faulkner
10. Bang Bang Bang - Mark Ronson
15. Dynamite - Taio Cruz
21. Plans - Birds of Tokyo
22. DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love - Usher & Pitbull
25. Dirty Picture - Taio Cruz & Ke$ha
42. Ride Remix?? - Ciara and friends
WOW AT NEWTON FAULKNOR.
I Didn't know it was a skit.
I think "I Hate Mondays" might have already secured a spot in the ARIA 100 (if not 50)
Not this week. Sales week finishes at the end of Thursday

Said what?

That Newton Faulkner is a skit but its horrible too. Hopefully it bombs.

Hijinx, I said that before....


There was an ad on the radio a minute ago for this song spoken by H&A too..

I'm with 392. I only listened to 30 seconds on iTunes but it sounded horrible if you're judging it as a song, and unfunny if it's to be judged as a skit. I really hope it is ineligible to enter. California Skanks would nearly be a better #1.
I meant next week Hijinx
When I sampled it I thought it was a serious Track so when I heard it, it was only average to me.

I'm not convinced until I hear the full thing, the preview is about 30-40 words. It could be good, I don't know. Also has a popularity bar now.
I Hate Mondays up to #3 now! Yes!
Newton's bars are irrelevant, but Enrique has around 70 and Katy has around 60. Newton will probably make #2, but, being a boring skit will probably bomb, I doubt it would knock of Em/RI.
dont forget about adam lamboob - If i had boobs, I think its gonna peak at #2!
IT'S GLAMBERT!! It better not
maybe something like glandularbert will do
GLAMBERT!
how long has Newton been on itunes for tonight?
Not sure, all I know is that it wasn't there on Friday Morning or early Afternoon.
From anton's comment it was released around 5:35pm yesterday. #2 now, somebody stop this!
Thankfully it's beginning to drop #5 right now.
For those that like the song, We No Speak Americano is #1 in iTunes UK atm

Newton #9

At this rate (basically, up to #2 and down to #9 in around 24 hours) I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up missing the ARIA T50 altogether.
I expect it will go back up tomorrow after the Hamish and Andy Show is aired. I think it has a good chance of making Top 50 if the record company allows it to chart.
Good to see an Australian Track Hit #1 on an overseas ITunes Chart, I don't mind the Track.
Wow, it's a massive Europe Hit.
I hate mondays is swinging like a yoyo, back up to #4
Yay! It's was #8 for most of the afternoon btw
I know, this is gonna make predicting SO HARD in the chartifacts
WOW I HATE MONDAYS AT #2!!!!!!!!!!!
what!! god damn Hamish & Andy (they're funny but this song sucks)
Maybe it rose because it's Monday I don't know.
I Hate Monday's is back at number 2. Wonder how i'tll go for the rest of the week. It'll be unpredictable.
NEWTON
Wow, so much has happened since I last saw.

Lambert may equal the #4 peak of Whataya and WTF is that Newton Faulkner shit at #2?

Usher has also zoomed to #11 fast. Song isn't that great.

Usher Featuring Pitbull DJ Got Us Falling In Love #5 now

Frank Stallone Far From Over is #67 & John Mayer's Half Of My Heart is up to #59

Jason DeRulo's new single What If is at #90


Aguilera's I Hate Boys has been moving between 90-100 for the last two days,Mike posner was #100 again for a few mins
Choose You at #29 keep rising!
Oh No! Retarded Usher song is at #2!

Itunes Update: Wed 21st July, 10:55pm

Chart commentary:

Flo Rida finally peaks in the Top 10! what took so long?
Usher surges overnight to a new peak at #2, wow! such a good song.

Newton Falcon's comeback song declines to #9, down from #2 so soon! unusual sales fluctuation! WTF! i guess it only peaks high on Mondays.
It's the new Monday anthem, for people that come back to work on a Monday, and experience withdrawals after having such an enjoyable weekend. It's an anthem for the Monday haters, including me.
Maybe next Monday, the song will surge again!

*************************************************

Current Top 10:

01.Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie (end of 13th day)
02.Usher - DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love (New Peak, rapid surge)
03.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (still awaiting #1 takeover)
04.Katy Perry - California Gurls
05.Adam Lambert - If I Had You (you never will, dream on!)
06.Travis McCoy - Billionaire
07.Uncle Crack - Smile Bitch (long awaited sales decline)
08.B.O.B - Airplanes (sales decline at last!)
09.Newton Falcon - I Hate Mondays (me too)
10.Flo Rida - Club Can't Handle Me (New Peak, finally in Top 10)

*************************************************

Below Top 10:

20.Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers (Album Version, New Peak!)

Appearance on Hey, Hey, might cause a much needed sales surge! finally! the song rebounds, i'll be expecting a return to the Aria Top 20, combined with the high physical sales.
The digital single version only peaked at #11.

35.Shakira - Waka Waka (Former #24 peak, sales rebound)

Should return to the Top 30, with help from the amount of physical sales.

39.Brandon Flowers - Crossfire (New Peak?)

A relaxing song to hear, nice melody and very emotive vocals.
Finally the song rebounds, due to increased airplay and video?

87.Christina Aguilera - I Hate Boys (New Peak? do Aussie fans like this song at all?)

The anthem for the all people that really hate boys.
It's the rumoured 2nd single off the album, not many radio airplay spins and no video planned yet?
Bad choice for the 2nd single, "Woohoo" was better.
How much do fans really like this song? was it chosen against their will?
Hopefully the label will release "You Lost Me", the video clip is out in August, or "Lift Me Up"?
Club Can't Handle Me is at #6
That's atrocious Anton!
just wait till Step Up 3D is released lol it's sure to hit #1 and that movie will also rebound T-Pain back up the chart


B.o.B's new single Magic (if it is?) has hit the top 100 aswell,It was #94 earlier now #100...
Last edited:
Hasn't that Step Up crap already been released? Aaargh, somebody forced me to watch Step Up 2 last year, it was terrible, the only highlight was one or two of the songs, such as Killa

Yeah, Magic is the new (third) B.o.B single in the US, which features Rivers Cuomo. It's not as good as NOY and Airplanes, but it's got an extremely catchy, solid chorus which will help it be a big hit, I think.
Last edited:
august 3rd 392 then Flo Rida is gonna be #1 for a third year straight
Oh no! He certainly doesn't deserve that
Let's make the most of reasonable charts while we can, please, that song really sucks
Early candidates for the #1 Aria Song of 2010:

Here are the 10 songs, and only one of them has a chance to peak at #1 on the Aria 2010 end of year chart, released in January 2011.

Who will be #1?

01.Train - Hey, Soul Sister (prolonged chart success)
02.Jason DeRulo - In My Head
03.Jason DeRulo - Ridin' Solo (extended stay in the Top 50)
04.Usher - OMG! (great longevity)
05.Katy Perry - California Gurls (the most successful female)
06.Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie (duration?)
07.David Guetta - Gettin' Over You
08.Taio Cruz - Break Your Heart (prolonged chart success)
09.Richard Vission - I Like That (prolonged success! WTF!!!)
10.B.O.B & Hayley - Airplanes (active in the Top 10 for too long! WTF!)
Fireflies has a much better chance than a lot of those I'd say. But I have no idea what it'd actually be so far.
OMG will outsell Fireflies in a few weeks.
OMG's not even <P>3 yet,so maybe in about 2 months...Train will outlast OMG in the top 100 and could easily overtake by the end of the year


I also just read on auspOp universal music have officially serviced Dynamite to the radio and announced its the official 2nd single

Itunes Update: Friday 23rd July, 1:15pm

01.Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie (15th day at #1)
02.Usher - DJ Got Us Fallin In Love

17.Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers (Albun Version, New Peak)

A sales recovery! has occured, what a relief!
She stole the show on Hey Hey, on Wednesday night!
Will she finally peak in the Top 10?

72.Kylie Minogue - Get Outta My Way (New Peak, 2nd Single!)

116.Leona Lewis - Happy (New Peak)

Comeback sales rebound, welcome back! such a good song
YAY! Dynamite AND no Dirty Picture!
YAY! Dynamite AND no Dirty Picture!
Well, it looks like Dirty Picture flopped! It is much too early to actually say so but if the record company released Dynamite, then they probably thought Dirty Picture wouldn't do so well
"Dirty Picture" will do well, and it's gonna be released as the next single.
We have a new entry to the top 10!

Massive congratulations to Taio Cruz with "Dynamite" which enters the top 10 at #10!
Explosives > Ke$ha porn, always

So good to see it entering the top ten, it's my 2nd fave song at the moment. It should do really well here
The next Itunes #1 song??

Enrique Iglesias "I Like It", a great comeback song! good to see it at #1 soon. A career reviving hit fro Enrique, already Top 10 in many other countries, such a great dance song!

Usher and Pitbull are two very popular artists, with millions of fans, great upbeat song which will be popular in the clubs, regardless of the chart success.

Flo Rida's "Club Can't Handle Me", is the best song of his career! relaxing melody and really puts me in a good mood.
Has great potential to peak at #1 on the Aria, Itunes or Radio Airplay charts.

Kylie Minogue's "All The Lovers", a fantastic synth-pop song! nice melody, vocals, video and song concept. It would be great to see Kylie back at #1 again. I would like to request some Aria Noms please!

Taio Cruz & Kesha "Dirty Picture", is a dark horse candidate, due to the popularity of Kesha, this song could outpeak "Dynamite". One of the best tracks of his album.

My Top 5 Candidates:

01.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (a good chance)
02.Usher & Pitbull - DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love (strong fanbase)
03.Flo Rida - Club Can't Handle Me
04.Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers (strong fanbase)
05.Taio Cruz & Kesha - Dirty Picture (a dark horse)


As everyone has predicted I Hate Mondays has bombed and is now at #21

But besides that we have some upward movement!

Dynamite #8
All The Lovers #13
Dirty Picture #18
Need You Now #28
Crossfire #39
Love The Fall #40!!!!!
Closer To The Edge #55
This Afternoon #57
Revolution #63
What If? #65
Magic #87

Brandon: I'm not so sure about Enrique. I think Usher is more likely, plus Usher is already ahead of him. Unfortunately, CCHM probably will make #1. I doubt All the Lovers would, it probably would've by now if it was going to, and Dirty Picture has been replaced by Dynamite so it's unlikely.
I predict Eminem to stay at #1 for a week or two, although Usher may overtake him. Then Flo Rida will go #1, dammit.

Mike Posner #115
Some notable rises within the top 100...

#11 - All The Lovers (Kylie Minogue)
#28 - Need You Now (Lady Antebellum)
#38 - Love the Fall (Michael Paynter)
#46 - Closer to the Edge (30 Seconds to Mars)
#54 - This Afternoon (Nickelback)
#59 - What If (Jason Derulo)
#61 - Half of My Heart (John Mayer)
#84 - Magic (B.o.B & Rivers Cuomo)
#88 - Hello (The Potbelleez)
#99 - Cooler Than Me (Mike Posner)
Katy Perry's new track 'Teenage Dream' is already #33! (was in the lower 40's a few hours ago)
lol 'i hate mondays' is going to have a spectacular fall out of the top 10 this week. its at #43

teenage dream has moved all the way up to no.3.
Cooler than Me was #85 earlier today.
Itunes Update: Wed 28th July, 11:10pm

The much hyped "Teenage Dream", which is the 2nd single from Katy Perry, peaks at #2!! the song is rapidly rising everyday! and is currently #2 on the U.S Itunes chart and #1 on the Canadian Itunes chart.
The video clip has been filmed, and fans are awaiting the release?

Enrique Iglesias is still in the race for the next Itunes #1, along with Usher and Taio.

Kylie Minogue's "All The Lovers", only peaked at #12 a few days ago, and the digital single peaked at #11 last month.
She still has a chance to crack the Aria Top 10, with the help from a physical sales boom.

Current Top 5:

01.Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie (end of 20th day)
02.Katy Perry - Teenage Dream (New Peak, awaiting #1 takeover)
03.Usher & Pitbull - DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love (Former #2 peak)
04.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (Former #2 peak)
05.Taio Cruz - Dynamite (New Peak?)




From the 30 Second sample, Teenage Dream is rubbish and much worse then California Gurls but would still be a better #1 then the garbage thats on top right now. Crap Top 2 right now.
I find it funny how you can judge a song by a 30 second preview.
30 seconds is a pretty fair amount to preview, it does give you a grasp of what a song sounds like. I do it all the time to decide whether to bother listening to a whole song or waiting until it comes up somewhere. You usually get the chorus (which in theory is the strongest part of a song, though for Teenage Dream it's the weakest) and maybe a taste of a verse. I think that's more than enough to tell you whether you're interested or not.

Love The Way You Lie still has quite a large lead. I'm sure she'll do it eventually, but I thought Katy'd close the gap sooner.

If lady gaga's alejandro drops out of the charts this week, than it will be the first time since august 2008 without gaga, so Here are the gaga's in the top 100 so we can see if this will go through..

53.Dance In The Dark [new single, lets see if alejandro will leave before this enters, could be VERY close]
57.Alejandro [almost guaranteed a digital top 50 drop out, unfortunately its video might save it ]
85.Telephone [no need to worry, its top 100 run might be over soon O_O]
92.Bad Romance[its run is almost over too ]
--

124.Poker Face [it needed a mention, having the longest top 100 run in ARIA history, this is actually quite high compared to where this song is usually sitting, I honestly dont know how it survives each week, can it get to 100 weeks?]



Im only wanting gaga out for a week, just because the run is ridiculous

Well, I would prefer to have no gaga at all
Itunes Update: Friday 30th July, 4:45pm

Chart commentary:

BREAKING NEWS!

Katy Perry is tipped to be the next Itunes #1!! OMG!

Katy Perry's chart success is set to continue in Australia.
She has a strong fanbase! which is why
"I Kissed A Girl", was #1 for 6 weeks in 2008, and the video clip was the 6th most watched music video, on Youtube Australia.
"Hot N Cold" and "Starstruckk" were both Aria Top 5 hits. "California Gurls" recently spent 4 weeks at #1, and now "Teenage Dream", is tipped to be the next Itunes and Aria #1. Congratulations!! Katy! let the success continue, please!

Eminem and Rihanna have now secured a 3rd week atop the Aria charts! YES!

The video also guest stars Dominic Monaghan, the former "Lost" actor, who will star alongside Megan Botox Fox!

Looking forward to seeing Newton Falcon's "I Hate Mondays" spectacular fall from chart grace!

Mark Ronson's "Bang Bang Bangs", will also tumble down the charts!

************************************************

Current Top 5:

01.Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie (final few days at #1)
02.Katy Perry - Teenage Dream (patiently awaiting #1 takeover)
03.Usher & Pitbull Terrier - DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love
04.Enrique Iglesias - I Like It (Former #2 peak)
05.Taio Cruz - Dynamite (stalled at peak?)

Special Mention!

53.Lady Gaga - Dance In The Dark (New Peak, a dark horse for the next #1, or not?)
There are several factors which explain why Poker Face is still charting

+ Multiple versions available, including one that regularly appears around the #850 spot. It may sound ridiculous but given how close sales must be towards the end of the Top 100, that does make a difference.
+ Music video sales
+ Probably good sales on other digital providers.

I really fail to see how the run is ridiculous. I'm sure that you wouldn't think so if it was one of your fav acts who had such a run. People like the song and are still buying it, almost two years after its release, so it appears in the Top 100, get over it.

The same goes for Bad Romance, you say that the run is almost over, yet it has several versions available, so it could still stay in the Top 100 for some time.

+ And obviously you haven't looked carefully the iTunes chart this week to say that Alejandro is gonna drop out of the digital Top 50. The song will easily remain in this week's Top 50.

It only dropped below the Top 50 on Tuesday or Wednesday. Moreover, it was charting around the #40 spot during the weekend.

I understand why people hate GaGa but it would be so great if only they could remain objective in regards to her chart performances. By the way, there were two weeks in October when there were no GaGa singles in the Top 50 (bar if you count Chillin').

I DO hope that Poker Face spends 100 weeks in the chart but that's gonna be really hard

I do count chillin, so sorry
I dont hate gaga, and I was just wondering why she was still remaining, I didnt know about the other factors were doing well
as for alejandro, no im sorry the computer had a virus and so i COULDNT check it over the weekend ><
Last edited:
So, if you count Chillin', then she's been in the Top 50 since July, not August.

By the look of things, I was assuming that you were hating her.

Sorry if I sounded aggressive (I really didn't want to) but it just kind of annoys me to read every week. Why is artist X or artist Y remaining in the Top 100/50 when they weren't on the iTunes chart, or why Act X or Act Y has dropped out of the ARIA Top 50 when they were charting in the iTunes Top 50 all week long

People need to understand that iTunes isn't everything cos it 'only' represents 40 % of the digital sales if I'm not wrong. It's a very good indicator though. You have to take into account whether a song has multiple versions available, if it has good music video sales (but that doesn't make such a huge difference) and if it's selling well on other digital outlets but it's much harder to check.

I don't think That Poker Face will still be in the Top 100 this week anyway but who knows.

Hope your computer is OK now.
yes it is
Yes I can Daniel09, over 90% of the time the Sample actually
does let me know of a Tracks Quality when I get to hear it in full later.

Dynamite way up to #3
California Gurls slight rebound back into #4, while teenage dream remains at #2..
