ARIA #1 Singles of 1991
Previous Winners:
Hello and welcome back to the Australian Charts number ones survivor series. It's been a while since last October, we crowned No Doubt's Don't Speak the winner of the 1997 list. This time we look at an interesting bunch of songs, 19 that topped the chart in 1991. Returning from 1992's list we have MJ's Black or White. We also have the first instance so far of an EP reaching #1. In this case the Tingles EP by Ratcat will be represented by the song which promoted the EP - 'That Ain't Bad'.
We have another few movie tracks, in this case Unchained Melody being re-released on the back of appearing in Ghost, and the Grease songs being re-released as a Megamix. Bryan Adams released the longest consecutive runner as well as the EOY #1 in Everything I Do... which was featured in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
As custom for the past few editions, the Aussies are safe first round, Including Two songs by Ratcat, Daryl Braithwaite, Olivia Newton John (+John Travolta by extension), Divinyls and Melissa Tkautz.
So Without further ado:
