  • Lola Young cleans up 2025 with ‘Messy’

    Lola Young has topped the 2025 Year-End Top 100 Airplay Chart with her multi-Platinum single ‘Messy’.

    Also crowned #1 on the Half-Yearly Airplay Chart, ‘Messy’ spent 10 non-consecutive weeks at the summit of the weekly rankings. Nova 106.9 Brisbane racked up 1,237 spins for the track this year with 35 stations nationwide adding spins in 2025.

    Twenty-two singles by Australian artists made the Year-End Top 100, led by Sonny Fodera’s smash ‘Somedays’ at #5 and CYRIL’s take on Paramore’s hit ‘Still Into You’ at #8. The tally is three more than last year, with new acts Tobiahs, Keli Holiday and Yes Boone all enjoying breakthrough moments.

    Sabrina Carpenter also had a standout year at radio. Despite narrowly missing out on a Top 10 finish, she lands five singles in the Top 100 (‘Bed Chem’, ‘Busy Woman’, ‘Taste’, ‘Manchild’, ‘Tears’). Sydney’s 2Day FM led the country with 4,304 spins for Carpenter across 2025.

    Sneaking in at #99, Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Dancing In The Dark’ is the oldest song to feature on this year’s list. The 1984 classic remained a favourite on Gold 104.3, where it received 350 spins.
