First No.1 ARIA album sung in an indigenous language and documentary about Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu released today.
Itâs been a long time between drinks but an Aussie artist. 5 Seconds Of Summer, is number one this week on the singles chart and another Aussie is in the top 10.

Good work from 5 Seconds of Summer being the first Australian artist in seven years to have a number one Single âYoungbloodâ and number one Album âYoungbloodâ in the same week. The last artist to do that was Gotye in 2011 on the Singles Chart with âSomebody That I Used To Knowâ and on the Albums Chart with âMaking Mirrorsâ.
This is the fifth week at number one on the Singles chart for 5 Seconds of Summer and itâs their second number one Single. Also, their third number one Album. 5SOS also top Australian Artist Singles, Australian Artist Albums, Streaming Singles, Australian Artist Streaming Singles. The Album is also close to the top of the charts in New Zealand, Netherlands, UK, Ireland and Belgium. The single also went to number one in New Zealand.
Also, good work from from for âJess & Mattâ (former X Factor contestants) whose new album hit number 11, especially since they get absolutely no support from radio. There have been six number one Albums in Australia so far this year: Sheppardâs Watching The Sky, Parkway Driveâs Reverence, Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupinguâs Djarimirri (Child Of The Rainbow), Kylie Minogueâs Golden and Vance Joyâs Nation Of Two.
Third number one in America and reports say they are the first Aussie act to have three albums debut at number one.
I wish we only had 5 Seconds Of SummerâŚunfortunately, both the band and the season seem to be sticking around a little longer these days.
Still far too long.
I doubt any network would be keen to do any biopic considering the last few have failed to fire.
Late reply, but surely the uni student demographic would support his comeback, as we did for Darrell Braithwaite and Shannon Noll.
Iâm as excited as a kid on Christmas because new announcements/music coming out Wednesday.
- Dillon Francis the guy who would come all over the competition in the fortnite Pro-AM, and the man that made get low plus a whole more tracks, also new album announcement finally;
- aaaaand RL Grimeâs Pressure is coming out - the guy who made core that has the pre drop sample of âwho do the shit that we doâ that youâve probably heard at festivals over the past 4.5 years. edit: itâs out itâs soooo fkn good.
Great effort, though the Top 40 Country Album chart is fairly niche in this country.
It would be nigh on impossible to achieve that feat on the overall Top 40 chart.
Watch as Ed Sheeran does it though
1,000 weeks is nearly 20 years.
To be honest, Iâll be surprised if Ed is still around in 10 years time. Yes, he is huge now, but todays music is so much more disposable, I donât think it has the longevity of music from the 1960-80s
Well, I now have my copy of this CD that I posted about in the âPure Goldâ thread a couple of weeks ago (as WSFM were giving away copies as part of a promotion)

Though NONE of the JB Hifi stores in my area have it in stock yet (only QLD at the moment by the looks of it), but Sanity does.
But the nearest Sanity store to me is 30 kms away in Raymond Terrace (thereâs none anywhere in Newcastle anymore), but this 80s music tragic didnât mind the 1 hour round trip to get it . (and itâs $2 more expensive there too).
About to rip some songs off it onto my Sony Walkman.
Good to see another Aussie song hit number one on the singles chart: Be Alright by Dean Lewis following another in the last few weeks.
Also three Aussie singles in the top 10 with Youngblood by 5 Seconds Of Summer and Healing Hands by Conrad Sewell and another recent one dropping out: I Said Hi by Amy Shark.
There seems to be a new appreciation for Aussie music.
