Harry Styles is unmoved at No. 1 on Australia’s albums chart with Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally (via Columbia/Sony), as Olivia Dean enters rare air with “Man I Need” (Universal).
Dean’s signature song collects an 18th consecutive week at No. 1 on the national tally, making it second-longest reigning single since the official ARIA Charts rolled out in 1983. “Man I Need” breaks the tie with The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” and Alex Warren’s “Ordinary,” both stuck on 17 weeks at No. 1.
The English singer and songwriter is still some distance from the all-time crown. That belongs to Tones and I’s “Dance Monkey,” which led for 24 non-consecutive weeks in 2019-20.
The good times don’t end there for Dean. She claims a 1-2, with “Rein Me In,” her collaboration with Sam Fender, holding at No. 2, while “So Easy (To Fall In Love)” improves 6-5 and “Nice To Each Other” lifts 23-15.
After 21 weeks on the chart, and following a fresh mix with BLACKPINK’s JENNIE, Tame Impala‘s “Dracula” (Columbia/Sony) enters the top 10 for the first time. The Deadbeat cut is up 15-8 for a new peak position, and a career best. Until now, Tame Impala’s best position on the ARIA Chart was No. 17 for “The Less I Know The Better” back in 2015. “Dracula” is the only homegrown recording in the current ARIA Top 50.
The top debut, and only new release, on the latest ARIA Singles Chart, published Friday, March 20, belongs to Noah Kahan as “Porch Light” (Republic/Universal) switches on at No. 29.
Over on the ARIA Albums Chart, Harry Styles’ latest release enters a second week at No. 1, ahead of Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving (unchanged at No. 2) and Tate McRae’s So Close to What (up 6-3 via RCA/Sony), respectively.
Finally, new releases from Lamb of God (Into Oblivion at No. 16 via Century Media/Sony), Beccy Cole (Through The Haze at No. 26 via ABC/Orchard), The Black Crowes (A Pound of Feathers at No. 34 via STO/MGM) and James Blake (Trying Times at No. 35 via Virgin/Inertia) impact the frame.
