SIA SCORES FIRST NUMBER ONE ALBUM
Sia picks up her first chart-topping album as “1000 Forms Of Fear” (Sony) debuts at number one on the Top Albums chart, with 5,600 units sold. It is her biggest one week sales total to date, almost selling as many copies as the 6,600 release-to-date unit sales of her last album, 2010’s “We Are Born.” Her previous chart peak was No. 32 with 2008’s “Some People Have Real Problems.” “Fear’s” first single, “Chandelier,” holds at No. 22 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 with a 26% audience increase over last week.
Judas Priest’s “Redeemer Of Soul” (Sony) debuts at No. 5 with 3,800 units sold. It is their highest charting album in the SoundScan era, surpassing the No. 9 peak of their last studio album, 2008’s “Nostradamus.”
Florida Georgia Line’s “Dirt” (Universal) debuts at number one on the Digital Songs chart, with 17,000 downloads sold, and picks up the Hot Shot Debut on the Canadian Hot 100, entering at No. 10. It is their first chart-topping digital hit, topping the No. 2 “Cruise” in June 2013. They are the first Country act to have a No. 1 digital hit since Taylor Swift’s “I Knew You Were Trouble” in October 2012. It is the duo’s highest charting song on the Canadian Hot 100, surpassing their last single, the No. 20 “This Is How We Roll.”
Maroon 5’s “Maps” (Universal) jumps 10-6 on the Canadian Hot 100 and scores both Greatest Gainer/Airplay and Digital honours. The song jumps 11-5 on the Digital Songs chart with an 18% download increase and moves 16-11 on the Hot 100 Airplay list with a 25% audience gain.
Two songs from Canadian artists debut on the Canadian Hot 100 this week. Montreal electro-duo Adventure Club pick up their first charted song as “Wonder” (Sony) lands at No. 64. Gord Bamford’s “Where A Farm Used To Be” (Sony) enters at No. 100, his 14th charted song.
