The holiday jingles have officially faded, making way for music’s heavyweights to reclaim their thrones on the ARIA charts. Leading the pack is the unstoppable duo of Rosé and Bruno Mars, whose smash hit “APT.” has stormed back to the No. 1 spot. After briefly sliding to No. 8, the chart-topping anthem has returned with a bang, marking its eighth non-consecutive week at the summit.
Fans of pop perfection are celebrating as “APT.” dethrones the last of the festive tunes, proving it’s still the ultimate earworm of the season. And Rosé and Bruno Mars aren’t the only ones bringing the heat—Gracie Abrams is back in the mix with “That’s So True,” which leaps to No. 2, reminding everyone why it was a chart favorite.
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are also turning up the volume with their emotional banger “Die With A Smile,” climbing to No. 3 and reigniting the buzz it sparked during its initial run. Meanwhile, Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” has taken flight once again, soaring to No. 4 after dominating charts last August.
The viral magic of Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” isn’t fading anytime soon, as it lands at No. 5, adding a splash of fun to the ARIA Singles Chart. But the real surprise comes from Sydney’s indie-pop duo Royel Otis, who debut at No. 47 with their dreamy cover of The Cranberries’ “Linger (SiriusXM Session).” The reimagined classic has fans buzzing, paying tribute to the timeless magic of the 1994 original.
Over on the ARIA Albums Chart, it’s all about Sabrina Carpenter, who is ruling like a queen with her record-breaking album Short n’ Sweet. The fan-favorite has secured an eighth non-consecutive week at No. 1, with standout tracks “Espresso” and “Taste” climbing back into the singles top 10, reminding everyone why Sabrina is having her moment.
Ed Sheeran isn’t far behind, riding a wave of nostalgia with his +–=÷× (Tour Collection) soaring to No. 6 thanks to a limited-edition vinyl release. Packed with hits like “Shape of You” and “Bad Habits,” it’s a greatest hits compilation that keeps fans coming back for more.
As the ARIA charts shake off their festive frost, the biggest names in music are once again lighting up playlists and proving that the new year is all about unforgettable hits. From Rosé and Bruno Mars to Sabrina Carpenter, 2025’s music scene is off to a blazing start.
