QUEEN DEAN, ELLA LANGLEY RETURN TO TIP OF TOP 40 – SON & WATER, REB FOUNTAIN SHAKE UP AOTEAROA CHARTS

Olivia Dean is back at #1 on the Top 40 Albums Chart with The Art Of Loving, having stepped aside last week for Taylor Swift, who drops to #2 with The Life Of A Showgirl: The Encore. Dean is due to open Western Springs Stadium in just under two weeks. Ella Langley similarly reclaims her position leading the Singles Top 40, with ‘Choosin’ Texas’.

Son & Water secure their second #1 on the Aotearoa Singles Chart this wiki, with the eponymous single ‘SAW’. The roots reggae act first topped the Chart back in April, with their take on ‘Hotel California’ – and have today released their debut album Still Burning. Over on the Aotearoa Albums Chart, Reb Fountain’s Water For Gasoline is back at #1 – shaking Six60 from the top spot.

Home Brew claim a coup, topping both the Catalogue and Aotearoa Catalogue Charts c/o a reissue of their classic 2008 LP, Last Week. The album appeared in the Catalogue Album Chart at #3 in June and returns this week in the peak position. TAWAZ, Stan Walker & Hone continue to lead Te Tukutahi Tiketike 10 Te Reo Māori this wiki, with ‘Mānawa Maiea Matariki’.

Noah Kahan grabs his third Hot Chart #1, all achieved in 2026, with his latest track ‘Draw You Out’. The Aotearoa Hot Chart is topped this week by Lance Savali, who lands a third #1 with ‘All I See’.
