The first new debut to hit the Singles chart comes in at #27 with David Guetta’s Hey Mama featuring Nicki Minaj & Afrojack. Sam Smith’s Stay With Me re-enters at #38 following success from his current Australian tour. It will no doubt rise further up in the next week or two until the tour comes to an end.

ARIA Albums

The ARIA Albums chart sees a new #1 with Sam Smith’s In The Lonely Hour, no doubt a result of the hype for his Australian tour which started on the 25th. Though the album debuted at #2 in June of last year, it has never left the Top 20. The move to #1 sees an end to Lee Kernaghan’s four week reign at the top spot with Spirit Of The Anzacs; it now sits at #2. At #5 is the highest debut of the week from Sydney’s Gang Of Youths with their debut album The Positions. It is followed by Alabama Shakes’ Sound & Color, which comes in at #6 and Stan Walker’s Truth & Soul at #7.
