Morgan Wallen Second Country Artist Ever To Claim Massive Aus Feat

For only the second time in 2023, an artist holds the top of both charts, as Morgan Wallen rides atop both the singles and album listings for this week.

Last Night for Morgan Wallen is logging its third consecutive week at #1 on the ARIA Singles Chart, while the track is also down a spot to #2 in The U.S.A., and at #3 in both New Zealand (LW-2) and Canada (on hold), while hitting new peaks in Ireland (#7) and England (#28).

His album One Thing At A Time reclaims the Albums Chart top spot this week for a second stay and logs a seventh straight week at the LP summit in The U.S.A., making Morgan Wallen only the second act of 2023 and the second-ever Country Artist to hold the top of both charts simultaneously.

Miley Cyrus was at the top of both charts this year on March 20th for one week, while her father Billy Ray Cyrus was the first country act to hold the top of both charts, back on October 11th and 18th in 1992 his single Achy Breaky Heart and its parent album Some Gave All held both top spots, while Morgan is the first Solo Male Act to achieve this feat since Harry Styles (May 30th, 2022) and the 142nd act to pull-off this rare chart feat overall (since 1965).

Miley's track Flowers remains at #2 for a third week, while stretching out its #1 status in Canada for a 14th week at the top there, followed by the other two stable tracks within the Top 10 this week, Kill Bill for SZA (and now featuring Doja Cat) at #3 (newly 3x▲Platinum in sales) which re-took the top spot in NZ last week (TW-2) and she has their #1 LP this week, plus the song also claims its first ever week at #1 in The U.S.A. this week thanks to its Doja Cat remix, while with Taylor and Harry both departing the Top 10 this week, this track is now the longest-running Top 10 entry at 19 weeks. PinkPantheress and Ice Spice are the fourth non-movers as they remain at #4 for another week with Boy's a Liar (pt.2).

During the first eight weeks that The Weeknd and Ariana Grande's version of Die For You has been within the Top 10, it only ever charted at either #3 or #5, well now this week the duet falls two places to a first-time-ever position of #7, while The Weeknd makes up for this slip by debuting at #9 with the track Double Fantasy alongside rapper Future, which is taken from the soundtrack to the June 4th due TV Series The Idol, which stars Abel 'The Weeknd' Tesfaye alongside Lily-Rose Depp, with Abel playing a self-help guru who has a complex relationship with Lily's character, an aspiring pop-star, with this new entry within the ten becoming his 17th Top 10 placement in Australia (13 as lead, 4 as guest).

Either side of the highest new entry for the week is Luke Combs' rendition of Fast Car, dipping one spot to park at #8, which is the same position his album Gettin' Old falls to this week too, while a return to the Top 10 at #10 for RAYE and 070 Shake with Escapism sees the song rise back up two places for a sixteenth week within the Top 10 after leaving for the first time last week.

Stephen Sanchez issued a new track on Friday (April 28th) called Only Girl, while his current entry Until I Found You, is down two places to #13, while another act with a new track out is Coi Leray who issued My Body, (which again features a classic sample, kinda!!) while her former #7 track Players is back up to #15 this week.
