Miley also sees her Flowers score a 3x▲Platinum sales accreditation this week, six weeks after it went 2P (March 6th), while the track returns to #1 in New Zealand (6th overall week) and remains at the top in Canada (11th week), as it falls to #2 in The U.S.A. after Jimin debuted at #1 with his track Like Crazy this past week.

Flowers secured the record for 'Longest running 'flower' at #1' last week, beating Sandi Thom's 10 weeks from 2006, and if she stays for another week at the top and she will tie her father's 13 weeks as a guest on Old Town Road for Lil' Nas X from 2019, although that was a broken 13 week run (4 weeks from April 22nd, then another 9 weeks from May 27th).

Flowers also becomes the second longest running #1 this decade behind the 17 accumulated weeks for Stay by The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber (2021), plus the song also ties for the equal tenth longest running #1 in Australian Chart History, alongside Buttons & Bows by Dinah Shore (1949), Lose Yourself for Eminem (2002) and Happy by Pharrell Williams (2014). Miley has also racked up 13 overall weeks at #1 in Australia, moving her up the list for 'Accumulated Weeks at #1: Singles (1940 to 2023)' to now equal 59th alongside Doris Day (13 weeks from two #1's) and just behind Lionel Richie (13 weeks from three #1's).

The top five singles are on hold this week, with a peak hold for a second week at #2 is Morgan Wallen and Last Night, which dips from #2 to #3 in both Canada and The U.S.A., rises to #3 in New Zealand (LW-5) and scores new peaks in both England (66 to #59) and Ireland (19 to #13), with his latest album only dipping one place locally to #4, it holds for a fourth week at the top in both The U.S.A. and Canada this week. PinkPantheress and Ice Spice are non-movers at #3 this week with Boy's a Liar (pt.2), which loses its top spot in New Zealand this week after six weeks at their singles-summit (NZ.TW-2).

Logging a remarkable sixth straight week at #4 is the SZA track Kill Bill, scoring the track a 16th week within the Top 10, while a third consecutive week at #5 occurs for The Weeknd and Ariana Grande collab Die for You, which so far has spent it's entire six weeks within the Top 10 at either #3 or #5 (3-3-3-5-5-5).

Speaking of Top 10 runs, two tracks make history for their artists within the Top 10 this week, as Taylor Swift scores her longest running Top 10 entry in Australia this week as her current entry Anti-Hero is up one spot to #6 and accumulating a 21st week within the Top 10, surpassing her previous record of 20 weeks for Shake it Off (2014/15) which saw a return to the chart last week at #99. Returning to the Top 10 and rising back up four places to land at #7 is Harry Styles' As it Was, which lands a 42nd week within the Top 10, making it now the fourth longest running Top 10 entry ever in Australia, three weeks shy of Ed Sheeran's Bad Habits at 45 weeks.

After his recent promo tour to Australia to promote his June 2023 local tour, Stephen Sanchez is back up two places to re-peak at #8 for a third stay with his Em Beihold duet Until I Found You, plus the track rises from Gold (certified Sept. 26th, 2022) to now 3x▲Platinum in sales.
