Rosé and Bruno back on top

Christmas is over and so is the dominance of festive songs on the ARIA Singles Chart, while Sabrina Carpenter keeps a tight grip on the #1 spot on the albums chart. 

The top seven singles on last week’s chart, all of which were Christmas songs, are nowhere to be seen this week – clearing the way for Rosé and Bruno Mars’ APT. to jump from #8 back to #1 for its eighth non-consecutive week on top. 

Gracie Abrams’ former #1 That’s So True rebounds from #9 to #2, while Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ Die With A Smile is up from #16 to #3 (it peaked at #2 last year). 

Two former chart-toppers make big moves: Billie Eilish’s Birds Of A Feather, which spent two weeks at #1 in August, jumps from #19 to #4, while Shaboozey’s A Bar Song (Tipsy), climbs from #18 to #5. It topped the chart for five weeks in July-August. 

Sydney duo Royel Otis crack the top 50 at #47 with Linger (SiriusXM Session), a remake of The Cranberries’ Linger, which peaked at #33 in 1994. Royel Otis’ 2024 album Pratts & Pain won two ARIA Awards in November. 

Sabrina Carpenter hangs onto the #1 spot on the albums chart for an eighth non-consecutive week with Short n’ Sweet. It first reached the top in early September and has had three separate stints at #1. Two former #1 hits from the album return to the top 10: Espresso soars from #32 to #8 and Taste flies from #35 to #10. 

Ed Sheeran’s greatest hits album +–=÷× (Tour Collection) is up from #12 to #6 thanks to the release of a limited-edition Blood Records vinyl version. It peaked at #4 in October, giving Ed his eighth top 10 album here, and contains six #1 Australian hits: Sing, Thinking Out Loud, Shape Of You, Perfect, I Don’t Care (with Justin Bieber) and Bad Habits.
