Aria End-Of-Year Chart

[winterlong]

As with the iTunes chart, D has done well on the overall Aria chart for the year:

www.aria.com.au/pages/aria-charts-end-of-year-charts-top-100-albums-2007.htm

Where We Land came in at...#39, and The Winners Journey at #44!!

Thats 2 albums in the top 50 selling albums of the year! (btw, TWJ came in at #5 in the 2006 chart with only one months sales )


In terms of Australian Artists, both albums chart in the same order, # 12 and #15. If you take a look at the list, he is up there with the Top 10 selling Australian artists (I'm not counting the 4 cover albums above him )

Singles are interesting - Damien doesn't have an entry in the overall Top 100 singles for 2007, but he does make the Top 100 PHYSICAL singles chart - NOML at #89, and 22 Steps at #97.

He features in the Top 100 Australian Chart with NOML at #33 and 22 Steps at #36. Not too bad considering Damien's fans seem to wait for albums

(note that this is also the second year NOML has featured - in 2006 it came #11 overall, #5 nationally and #15 digitally - again with only a few weeks sales )

I think that almost every way you look at it, Damien has sold very well..unless of course your name is Paul Cashmere

btw, there were 25 #1 albums in 2007 - and Damien had 2 of them!

[thebraff (Braffy)]

I get the feeling Dawn is excited by this news

But seriously, it is really good - two albums out of 25 #1s is something to be really proud of.

[Spud]

Wow go Damien! That's really good, congrats!

Winter - you know how there were 25 #1 albums in 2007, how many other people had more than one #1 album apart from Damien?

Wow I'm liking all this positive information Winter ;D


Paul Cashmere will be looking to either a) change his name or b) be unemployed this year when Damien flys up the charts in 2008.



Lots to look forward to this year. ;D

Though other artists spent more time at #1 with one release (such as Snow Patrol and Michael Buble staying in there for 5 weeks), no other artist had 2 releases reach #1 in the same year. In total, Damien spent 3 weeks in 2007 at #1 ;D

[Trilly]

Yep..he did good! Thanks, winter WTG Mr Leith!!

Am totally with you re this year's album(s) ..CAN'T WAIT!! ;D...am hoping there is something acoustic in there, even if it's all new (organic?) stuff, but am loving the idea of rockier, edgier D too..ain't it great to have so much to look forward to again?? ;D

Well if you include the last few weeks of 2006, then Damien spent 6 weeks at #1 (I think?) So D wins!
