Among Australia's 1000 songs that have reached the top of the music charts, here are the 250 that have mattered most (with songs #50 to 41 added this week):
Australia has its 1000th #1 Single! 
It has taken many decades, but this milestone has finally been achieved.
Beginning in January 1940, Australia's singles charts have documented the songs that have touched the population. There have been landmark classics, songs that inspired us and, well, the downright trashy hits too. Among the 1000 are songs by music legends, including  the Beatles, Elvis Presley, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Pink, Bee Gees, Barbra Streisand, ABBA, U2, Kylie Minogue, Diana Ross, the Andrews Sisters, Bing Crosby and the Rolling Stones. Along the way, Australia has sent its local talent to the top of the charts with performers that became household names, both here and internationally; including John Farnham, Slim Dusty, Men at Work, Rick Springfield, Peter Allen, the Seekers, Olivia Newton- John, the Easybeats, Skyhooks, Sherbet, Helen Reddy, INXS, Savage Garden and Gotye.
10 songs will be added to this list each week.
