Drag's Weekly Top 40 (New Year, More Positions!)

[Billy Uranus]

I didn't expect "Mirrors" to start dropping so soon, even though I know you're not really much of a JT guy. It's also interesting to see "I Love It" rising in such fashion.

I'm guessing "Stompa" is now out of the running for #1, but at least it came really close.

Chart Notes: Ariana Grande fends off her competition as she hangs on to the top spot for a sixth consecutive week. This week we have two top 3 debuts including Tamar Braxton's new single "The One" at #2 and Mariah Carey's lead single #Beautiful (feat. Miguel) off her upcoming album. Ellie and Calvin Harris continue their climb and reach a new peak of #4 this week. One Direction is the big mover of the week, as they storm the top 10 with a 13-07 climb. Kelly and Krewella both rejoin the top 10 with Kelly's "People Like Us" reaching a new peak of #9. Sara Bareilles is the dropper of the week as she plunges down 13 spots to #21. The Wanted are the last new entry of the week as they come in at #27 with their new single "Walks Like Rihanna".

[Billy Uranus]

Wow, another week at #1 for "The Way"! Though I gotta say, I don't think this will last too much longer with those debuts right behind it.

It's interesting to see "I Love It" almost in the top 5. It wasn't too long ago that you weren't too fond of that song.

Chart Notes: The boys finally reach the top as they dethrone the monstrous 6 week chart topper "The Way" with their single "Kiss You". Demi Lovato is made for this chart as she debuts at #2 with her upcoming single "Made in the USA" which also happens to be her charting song to date. Elsewhere on the chart, Jennifer Lopez lives it up as she's our other new entry for the week with her new single "Live It Up" at #15. Selena Gomez comes and gets a reentry with her single "Come & Get It" at #30. Our big mover of the week is from OneRepublic's "If I Lose Myself", as the single changes courses and makes a rebound of 10 positions. Our dropper of the week comes from Olly Murs, as "Troublemaker" continues its downward spiral 10 spots to #21.

[Billy Uranus]

Noooooooooo, why?

Now I could rant about how wrong that new#1 is, or about how I dislike the top 3...but instead, I'll focus on the good stuff. "Come & Get It" peaking at #30 is a very good thing.

Kelly Clarkson joins the top 5 as she moves 6-5 with her latest single "People Like Us". Tamar Braxton IS our biggest dropper of the week with "The One" falling 10 spots to #15. Our climber of the week is Charli XCX as she continues an upwards reclimb with a remixed version "You're The One" jumping 12-7. Britney Spears is frisky with her "Ooh La La" being the highest new entry at #9. Other new entries include Carly Rae Jepsen's Take a Picture at #13 and Tegan and Sara's latest single "I Was a Fool" at #21.

[Billy Uranus]

I normally wouldn't be a fan of "Made In the USA" being at #1, but it sure beats One Direction. Nice debut for Britney, as expected with you. I also find it interesting how "Alive" continues to stick around in the top 10.

My favorite debut is the new Tegan & Sara song.

Chart Notes: The Saturdays have a double victory as they claim their second #1 single and #1 debut with their latest single "Gentleman". Ariana Grande stays put at #2 as she continues her top 3 consecutive week streak. Carly Rae Jepsen finds her picture in the top 10 as she moves 13-08 with Take a Picture. Nicki Minaj is our bigger mover of the week as she makes a 17-10 jump with her current urban single "High School (feat. Lil Wayne)". Charli XCX is our dropper of the week as she falls 7-17 with her remix of "Ýou're The One". Other new debuts include Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines (feat. T.I & Pharell) at #24 and Maroon 5's "Love Somebody" at #29.

[Billy Uranus]

I might not be a big fan of "Gentleman," but it's a definitely a step up from your last two #1s. I always thought "I Need Your Love" would sneak in a week on top but that is looking less possible.

It's interesting to see Britney Spears falling so soon, and "Clarity" already falling off. And boo @ "Come & Get It" falling off again.

One Direction are the big droppers of the week as they decline 12-23 with "Kiss You".

Their songs tend to burn fast for me lol plus I have a ton of songs moving upwards at the moment.

Another #1, and another song I don't like. :/ This has become a trend.

Chart Notes: Miley can't stop her on on top as she remains on top for a second consecutive week. Ellie's explosion continues as she stays put in the runner up spot for a second week. Nicki Minaj continues her upward advance as she moves 4-3 with "High School". The Saturdays make a huge rebound with their single "What About Us" moving 14-4 as the greatest gainer of the week. "What About Us" is the only song on the chart to have spent its entire run since the chart's creation within the top 15. Sara Bareilles makes a brave jump as she moves 13-6 with "Brave" with Tegan and Sara following suit with their song "I Was a Fool" moving 12-7 and thus reaching a new peak. Carly Rae Jepsen is our dropper of the week as she tumbles 8-21 with "Take a Picture". We have two new entries this week including Serena Ryder's latest single "What I Wouldn't Do" and The Pistol Annies' lead single "Hush Hush".

[Billy Uranus]

You know I'm not a fan of your current #1, but I'm not at all surprised to see it spending a 2nd week on top. Could it perhaps follow in the footsteps of Ariana Grande?

I'm happy to see "I Was A Fool" jumping into the top 10 and "Work" hanging on in the top 5. Both are good songs.

Chart Notes: Miley continues to dominate Drag's Chart Party as she extends her reign at #1 for a 3rd consecutive week. She is the first artist to debut and spend more than one week on top. Kelly Rowland's kisses may be down low but her debut sure isn't as she settles for a #2 debut. Chris Brown makes his first debut on the chart with his latest single "Don't Think They Know" featuring the late Aaliyah at #6. Britney has an ooh la la moment as she is her big mover of the week, rebounding 29-17 with her Smurfs 2 single. Iggy Azalea is our dropper of the week as she makes a huge downward slide 5-15. Our third and final debut comes from another new artist on the chart, J. Cole's latest single "Crooked Smile (feat. TLC)" comes in at #29.

[Billy Uranus]

While your two top 10 debuts are not my cup of tea, I would be happy with either of them knocking Miley off the top. Otherwise, I'd like to see Tegan and Sara make a move toward the top.

It's kind of interesting to see Britney on the move now. How high can she go?

Chart Notes: Chris Brown is officially the first male artist to top the chart with some help from one of my favorite artists Aaliyah. Sara Bareilles continues her brave rebound as she moves 5-3 and tries having a second go at the top spot, stay tuned to see if she'll manage this time. Britney Spears continues her ooh la la moment as our greatest gained for a second consecutive week as she rebounds 17-8 and reaches a new peak with "Ooh La La". Our biggest loser of the week goes to Nicki Minaj's "High School" as it fall 11-23 in its 12th week on the chart. Newcomer Lorde is our highest entry of the week with "Tennis Court" at #14 (lol at her doing Lana better than Lana). Our other two new entries of the week come from Kelly Clarkson's latest country single "Tie It Up" at #17 and Capital Cities with "Safe and Sound" at #19.

It looks like my #1 prediction turned out to be right. Do we count this as a TRUE male #1, or is that still yet come come?

It looks like Sara Barellis still has something left in the tank and might be a #1 in the future. And it appears that Britney is going to do pretty well with her song after all. My favorite debut of the week is Kelly Clarkson.

Chart Notes: Miley Cyrus can't stop her desire to be on top as she reclaims her throne and becomes the first chart topper to have two seperate runs at #1. Sara Bareilles continues her rebound as she moves 3-2 with "Brave". Can her unlucky 13th week on the chart be her break at the top? Stay tuned. Kelly Clarkson is our double big mover of the week as she climbs with both of her singles (17-7 with "Tie It Up") and an impressive 29-19 rebound with "People Like Us". Our dropper of the week is Ariana Grande as she drops 16-23 with her 6 week chart topper "The Way". We have two new debuts including Robin Thicke's latest single "Give It 2 U (feat. Kendrick Lamar) at #22 and Olly Murs with his top 5 UK single "Dear Darlin'" at #30.

[Billy Uranus]

NOOOOOO....I'm gonna cry. Miley of all people gets to be the first two-time #1?

On a brighter note, it's great to see Kelly moving ahead with such a big mover. I'm not a fan of the debuts this week, though.

Chart Notes: Ellie burns the chart as she dethrones Miley with her lead single from the Halcyon Day re-release "Burn". With that entry, Ellie is the first artist to have 4 top 3 hits within the chart's history. Robin Thicke is the greatest gainer of the week as he matches Ariana's 19 spot jump 15 weeks ago by climbing 22-3 with his next single "Give It 2 U (feat. Kendrick Lamar)". Britney's "Ooh La La" is cut short as she tumbles 5-20 due to the massive movements with the upper half of the chart. We have 3 other debuts including a remix of Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness" at #7, Paramore's "Still Into You" at #22 and Ciara's latest single "I'm Out (feat. Nicki Minaj) at #23.

[Billy Uranus]

Well I was thinking Ellie would debut in the top 5, but I didn't know her song would be THAT big right off the bat. That said, I'm glad. It's a lot better than the other songs that I thought were contenders this week. Hopefully she can hold off Robin Thicke.

Nice seeing Paramore debut, and Britney taking a huge fall. It's also nice to see Kelly inside the top 5, and hopefully she is still a contender for the top spot.
