Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” Officially Reaches #1 In Australia

“Perfect” hits #1 following the release of the Beyonce remix.

Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” was #4 on last week’s ARIA Australian Top 50 Singles Chart.

Thanks to its ongoing momentum and the release of a new version with Beyonce, it jumps to #1 on this week’s listing.

“Perfect” seizes the throne from Camila Cabello’s “Havana (featuring Young Thug),” which spent the past three weeks as the #1 song Down Under.

“Perfect,” which appears on the 2017 album “Divide,” follows “Sing,” “Thinking Out Loud,” and “Shape Of You” in becoming Sheeran’s fourth Australian #1.

The aforementioned “Havana” slips to #2 this week, while Post Malone’s “rockstar (featuring 21 Savage)” dips one place to #3.

Post Malone’s “I Fall Apart” concurrently falls one spot to #4, while Marshmello x Khalid’s “Silence” climbs one position to #5.

Other notables on this week’s ARIA Australian Top 50 Singles Chart:
— NF’s “Let You Down” rises four spots to #7.
— Bebe Rexha & Florida Georgia Line’s “Meant To Be” soars eighteen spots to #8.
— Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” re-enters at #18.
