Sebastian's debut single "Angels Brought Me Here" and album Just as I Am both reached number one on the ARIA charts.[1] "Angels Brought Me Here" was the highest selling song in Australia last decade.[10] The first week sales of 163,711 for Just as I Am were at the time the highest one-week sales ever achieved in Australia, and have since only been surpassed by Susan Boyle's debut album in 2009.[11][12] With eventual sales of 480,000, just short of 7× platinum, Just as I Am is the highest selling album ever released by an Australian Idol contestant.[10][13][14][15] The second single "All I Need Is You" also reached number one.[1] Sebastian's next two albums were certified platinum.[16][17] Beautiful Life showcased a stronger contemporary R&B sound and reached number two with a number-one lead single, "Out with My Baby", and two other top twenty singles.[1] Closer to the Sun was a mix of genres, including pop rock, soul, and jazz. It peaked at number four and produced a top ten and top twenty single.[1][18]

The Memphis Album was a cover album of soul classics recorded in Memphis with Steve Cropper and other members of American soul band the MGs. It peaked at number three and gained a double platinum certification.[1][19] Like It Like That, which showed the influences of Sebastian's Memphis soul period, reached number six and platinum certification.[1][20] The title track "Like It Like That" peaked at number one and was the highest selling Australian artist song of 2009.[1][21][22] "Art of Love", featuring Jordin Sparks, peaked in the top ten.[1] Twenty Ten was a retrospective album with songs from Sebastian's previous albums, two new songs and ten acoustic tracks. It peaked at number four and was certified double platinum.[23][24] The album's only single "Who's That Girl", featuring US rapper Eve, reached number one.[1]

Sebastian's seventh and eighth albums were mixtures of soul, R&B and pop.[25] Armageddon peaked at number one and was certified double platinum.[26] The album was the second highest selling album by an Australian artist in 2012.[27] Four top ten singles were released from the album, including "Battle Scars" which reached number one and was the highest selling Australian artist single of 2012.[1][28] Sebastian's eighth album Madness reached number six and has been certified gold.[1] The album produced a top ten and three top twenty singles.[1]
