CHART WATCH

Metro Station might give US singer Katy Perry a run for her money on next week’s ARIA chart as the single (both physically and digitally) ambles it’s way up the charts.

Dance act The Potbelleez have raced into the top 20 (No.15) and Central Station Records would be happy with a top 20 placing for September’s dance hit ‘Cry For You’ (No.19) which also debuts at No.14 on the physical singles chart. Teen star Miley Cyrus has debuted at No.38 with ‘7 Things’. Metro Station takes the number one position over on the digital track charts, with The Veronicas’ new single ‘Take Me On The Floor’ pOpping in at No.22 and bizarrely, Roxette’s ‘Dangerous’ debuting at No.30.
