Ever wonder which Aussie song was the best selling single of each year? Well wonder no longer.

Here is a list of the best selling Aussie single of each year from 1958-2018. I’ve also listed the overall position on the respective end of year best sellers list that each entry achieved.

It’s great to see so many Aussie artists dominating the charts over the years, even though some years are better represented than others…I’m looking at you 2010 & 2017…

Make sure you check out the video playlist at the bottom for a quick trip down memory lane. Enjoy.
