Hello everyone... One thing to mention here: With Panic! At The Disco not only won the Favorite Alternative Rock Artist but wowed the AMA's with their rendition of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"... we'll see if it impacts all charts they're in next week... well before we countdown the top songs, here's what we are saying goodbye:
• Meg Myers - Numb (#39)
This song is not as good as her previous songs Sorry and Lemon Eyes but it works..No word on follow up to it from her "Take Me to The Disco" album
• King Princess - 1950 (#29)
Her first hit went ok here..hope her other song Talia enters soon
• Young The Giant - Simplify (#27)
The California based band hasn't been peaking well as of late...This song is a fine song and hope Superposition can do better.

Biggest Drop for the week:

New Entrys:
Blue October- Daylight returns to the chart.. this is the second song from the "I Know You're Happy" album, the title cut the first, that debut, drops out after one or two weeks, then reenters.. not sure if this one duplicates the second run as the first.
Shinedown - Get Up This is a total departure from the Jacksonville rock rand, sounds okay but i am afraid they will go mainstream with this... Don't get me wrong, I like this tune but this is not the Shinedown we are used to.. and not sure if this will be a bonifide hit
The 1975 - Love It If We Made It The lads from Manchester, England returns to the chart with a song that is a major upgrade from Give Yourself A Try, which was totally weak, let alone the video made me hate it even more. This song's production is much better and sounds good. I can see this get close to the top 10.
Top Debut: The 1975 - Love It If We Made It
AAA charts YouTube channel airs the countdown in video form. At the end of the video, they recommend a song that may enter in the survey a week or two later.
This week's AAA Charts Weekly Recommendation:
Smashing Pumpkings - Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts) Billy Corigan and the gang is back with a new song. It shows they know how to make music. I will explore it further when it debuts
My Top 3 Recommendations:
Tom Morello f/ Portugal. The Man & Whethan - Every Step That I Take
Mike Posner - Song About You
morgxn f/ Walk The Moon Home
Blurb Rhapsody:
• There was 4 songs that earned the biggest jumper of the week which includes Mike Shinoda Featuring k.flay - Make It Up As I Go. Looks like that this song from the Linkin Park rapper will indeed outperform Crossing A Line
• The latest from Death Cab For Cutie, Gold Rush, is few weeks away from exiting as the song becomes the biggest dropper of the week
• Panic! At The Disco and Marshmello/Bastille having big gains as both will battle for the chance to knock off Imagine Dragons off the top spot, while Hozier f/ Mavis Staples - Nina Cried Power lost some momentum this week. Hope its not a sign for a great tune.
• After a month in the #5 spot lovelytheband - Broken drops to #6. This song, already #1 for the year, could stay in top 10 til Billboard's calendar year ends.
