Yes! I'm so happy for Damien. I honestly didn't think he'd make it for most of the week, but today I've had this funny feeling, and I'm glad I was right. I expect the Winner's Journey CD to debut high too - it sold out of all stores here, and I imagine things were similar in other parts of Australia.

I just heard the TOP 40 countdown show on NOVA, that features the newest ARIA chart(it will be posted on their website later tonight). Bianca was hosting today, and she's a big Damo fan.   |

Guy Sebastian's new song debuted at No 11 - much lower than many of us were expecting.  And, that Shannon Noll/Natalie Bassingwaite song only came in at No 7.  So, Damien easily beat out all other idols....Scissor Sisters are again his main competition for next week. |

Number one for a second week? That's fantastic!! I'm curious to know if the platinum certification has changed.  |

Weird... I was convinced Guy would be #1 because that single has been heavily promoted and seems so popular. The Shannon Noll one I can understand because the song is on an album as well (although I admit I bought it for the instrumental... ). Oh well, Damien has much more to prove to our resident snarky media than either of those two so I'm happy he's done it.  |

Yes, I turned Damiens music off so I could listen to the top 5 on the Nova (Aria) Countdown and really hoping that I hadn't missed it. When they got to 3 left they did a promo about what would be the No.1 and they played a snippet of NOML. I knew then that I hadn't mssed it. As soon as no. 2 came on I knew he had the NUMBER 1 AGAIN. Go Damien.
According to the Sanity charts he is also No. 1 for the DVD. They change their displays on a Monday so if you go into a Sanity store you should see it up there in top spot.
I met him yesterday at Blacktown and he is soooo nice.

The Winner's Journey debuted at #3 which is great considering its only been released for half a week ;D ;D

Damien's appearance on SUNRISE would have helped CD sales, I'm sure!  |

Pretty amazing that the album got to number 3 considering that it was on sale on THURSDAY and he had only 2 days to take up the charts.
