The song has just broken records in the US as the longest-running #1 song by a female country artist ever. Olivia Rodrigo also keeps her position at the head of the Albums Top 40 with you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love.
‘Ready To Ride’ by Hori Shaw and Te Wehi continues to lead the Top 20 Aotearoa Singles Chart. Only ‘Blue Eyed Māori’ by Corrella and ‘In The Air’ by L.A.B have spent more weeks at #1 on the Chart.

New Yorker sombr scores his third Hot 40 #1 with ‘My Body Isn't Ready’, while TEEKS claims his sixth NZ Hot Chart #1 with ‘My Boy’ – his first original material since 2024.
Over on the Tukutahi Tiketike 10 Te Reo Māori, a brand new installment of Te Matatini tunes has dropped just in time for Matariki.
