Is this when it all falls apart?
Oh well, nothing lasts 4ever.

Cruel.
You Ruin Me.

The Veronicas did not really split, it was for a campaign called ā€˜The Solo Project’ with Vodka Cruiser, which is in celebration of feminine empowerment and self-love.

Over what time period is that? 1 week?

Yes, that is over a period of 1 week. As you may or may not already know, Aria Charts run from Friday to Thursday. So the figures I provided are from Friday 26th August until Thursday 1st September.

Seems most people agree. It dropped from number 1 to number 4 after one week.

Good to see ā€œI Ain’t Worriedā€ by One Republic rise to number 2. A slow climb to the top over 13 weeks. I liked this song the instant I heard it and Shazamed it to see who sung it. It’s a good old fashioned style hit song from a movie soundtrack.

Agree - haven’t liked a lot of other OneRepublic stuff but I do like that.

Not sure if this is the right thread for it, but last Friday night (September 9) I went to see Mimi Webb perform live in Sydney for the first time. She is an up-and-coming British popstar who has already produced hits like ā€œ24/5ā€ and ā€œHouse on Fireā€.

I managed to film this performance of her song ā€œGoodbyeā€ - try watching this without tearing up.

British singer Mimi Webb has delayed the release of her new song, ā€œGhost of Youā€, due to the recent passing of the Queen. It will now be released on October 7.

Been listening to Sam Fischer’s ā€œHopeless Romanticā€ since he performed this at his recent Sydney gig (in which he opened for Mimi Webb). It’s a bop!

ACA’s report including details of John Farnham’s progress.

ā€œNow he’s almost back to his normal self, just dropping jokes all the time. The nurse teams come in and it’s new people, a new audience. He’s a performer at heart and he’s always trying to make people laugh, which is just who he is.ā€
