Last Year's #1: lovelytheband - Broken (1st of 9 weeks at #1)
Biggest Rise of the Week:
[+14] The Lumineers - Gloria
Biggest Fall of the Week:
[-8] Foals- Exits
New Entrants:
40 The Blue Stones - Be My Fire
The follow up to Black Holes (Solid Ground) is a well produced song and quite catchy
(Prediction Top 20 at least)
37 Meg Myers - Running Up That Hill
Remember the old saying in music "Nothing will top the Original?" Well even though the reboot of the classic New Wave hit by Kate Bush is well produced and Meg's voice did justice to the song...still it don't top the original
(Prediction top 10-20)
33 Judah & The Lion - Why Did You Run?
If you think Over My Head is bad, this one is even worse.... it sounds more like The Chainsmokers more than what we first heard from them in Take It All Back or Suit and Jacket
(Prediction barely hit top 20, but rather go as far as #25)
- "99" & S.O.S. (Sawed Off Shotgun) will be missed... but Blue Lips i won't miss much... it was half decent and half Meh
- High Hopes, Happier and Broken (which by the way started its 9 week run at #1 one year ago) is still on the chart....I believe this could be the final week for Broken
- Other blurbs:
*Ready To Let Go holds on the top spot for it's 6th week....
*Chlorine stays at # 2...
*Lo/Hi moves to #4...
*Hey Look Ma I Made It dropped another notch.... Bad sign for a song with Top 10 all written all over it
