Olivia Dean Claims ARIA Albums and Singles Double as 2025 Charts Wrap
Olivia Dean closes out 2025 with a rare ARIA albums and singles chart double, as The Art Of Loving and Man I Need hold firm at No. 1.
Olivia Dean has signed off the ARIA Charts year in dominant fashion, landing a rare albums-and-singles double for the third consecutive week as the final charts of 2025 are released.
Dean’s The Art Of Loving holds firm at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart for a fourth non-consecutive week, while lead single "Man I Need" extends its reign atop the ARIA Singles Chart to six straight weeks.
The result caps a tightly contested year on the albums chart, with 27 different titles reaching No. 1 across 2025. The longest runs belonged to Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet and Taylor Swift’s The Life Of A Showgirl, each spending seven weeks at the top.
Australian artists also made a strong showing, with six local acts topping the albums chart during the year: Ball Park Music, Bliss n Eso, Jimmy Barnes, Calum Hood, Hilltop Hoods and 5 Seconds of Summer.
By contrast, the singles chart was defined by a small group of runaway hits. Just nine songs reached No. 1 in 2025, led by Alex Warren’s "Ordinary", which spent 17 weeks on top. "Golden" from the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack followed closely behind with a 10-week run at No. 1.
Rising English rapper EsDeeKid makes notable gains in the final chart of the year, with three tracks climbing the ARIA Singles Chart simultaneously: "Phantom" featuring Rico Ace jumps from No. 31 to No. 21, "4 Raws" rises from No. 54 to No. 28, and "Century" moves from No. 60 to No. 45.
As expected, Christmas titles dominate the latest ARIA On Replay charts. Michael Bublé’s Christmas returns to No. 1 on the albums tally, while Mariah Carey’s perennial "All I Want For Christmas Is You" once again holds the top spot on the singles chart. The seasonal stronghold is so complete that the top 26 On Replay singles are all Christmas songs, with Zara Larsson’s "Lush Life" breaking the run at No. 27.

Vinyl sales continue to skew toward catalogue favourites, led by Pink Floyd’s "Wish You Were Here (50th Anniversary Edition)", alongside strong demand for releases from Taylor Swift, Tyler, The Creator, Arctic Monkeys and Jeff Buckley.
