Following its huge win at the Golden Globes this week, the Bohemian Rhapsody soundtrack has held onto top spot again on the ARIA Albums chart.
It seems only fitting that it takes out the #1 spot against the A Star Is Born soundtrack, after Bohemian Rhapsody won the Best Film - Drama trophy over the Bradley Cooper-directed film.
However, the A Star Is Born soundtrack does remain at #2 with The Greatest Showman soundtrack both original and Reimagined versions, taking out #3 and #6.
The Bohemian Rhapsody dominance continues with Queen's The Platinum Collection and Greatest Hits remaining in the top ten at #4 and #5 respectively.
Other soundtracks have surged following the Globes with Mary Poppins debuting at #15 and Spider-man: Into The Spiderverse, which took out Best Animated Feature, holding onto #12.
If it seems like you are seeing and hearing a lot about film soundtracks more than ever, it's because you absolutely are. The soundtrack reigned supreme in 2018 with three soundtracks for Hollywood feature films featuring in the top ten albums of 2018. It looks like this is set to continue into 2019.
Taylor Swift's Reputation climbs back to #10 following the release of the Netflix concert special this month, as well as a #18 spot for Eminem's Curtain Call greatest hits LP, who tours Australia next month.
Ziggy Alberts, currently on a massive Australian tour, also returns to the charts with Laps Around The Sun reentering at #34.
Over on the Singles chart, Post Malone and Swae Lee's Sunflower hold top spot with Swae Lee currently in the country touring with Rae Sremmurd for Fomo Festival. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's Shallow, which scored the Best Original Song award at the Globes, is sitting at #7.
5 Seconds Of Summer's Youngblood remains in the top 20 following it being named as 2018's top selling single.
