For a fifth week Post Malone and 21 Savage have the No.1 song in Australia with “Rockstar”.
The song is again the No.1 streamed song in the country and the No.4 digital selling track for a second week (its highest position so far), and both acts have a surging and new entry this week too. And stuck at No.2 for a third straight week is Camila Cabello and Young Thug with “Havana” (#2 on both the streaming and digital charts) and making it a stable Top 3 for a second week is Ed Sheeran and “Perfect” (#1 digital, #13 streamed) on hold at No.3 for a second week.
Climbing both to new peaks are Khalid with “Young, Dumb & Broke”, up three to No.4 and Portugal The Man with “Feel it Still” up one spot to No.5, which gives Khalid his highest charted single in Australia beating the No.5 peak of his “1-800” track. These two rises push down the Macklemore and Skylar Grey track “Gorgeous” to No.6, whilst back up one spot to No.7 are Zayn and Sia with “Dusk Till Dawn”.
Sam Smith is back up one place to No,8 with his former No.1 “Too Good at Goodbyes” and on hold at No.10 is the Dua Lipa track “New Rules”. Debuting at No.9 though is the third entry from the November 10th due sixth studio album for Taylor Swift entitled “Reputation”, this new track is called “Gorgeous”, and by debuting at No.9 it becomes the third Top 10 single from the new album and overall her fourteenth Top 10 single in Australia too. The albums first entry was the former No.1 track “Look What You Made Me Do” (TW-26) and that was followed by “…Ready for it?” (TW-59, HP-3).
