Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: One Direction – Story Of My Life (–26)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Imagine Dragons – Radioactive (+24) [Yes, I’m being serious.]

New Entrants
~ We got an expected re-entry from Sara Bareilles – Brave.

~ Phantogram – Fall In Love is good. We’re getting a lot of alternative music on the countdown. We’re better off having it around.

We’ll Be Counting Blurbs
~ Imagine Dragons – Radioactive made an obnoxious leap to #14. I really don’t want to put this song in red. But Hits 1 keeps making it harder.

~ I really didn’t want Panic! At The Disco – Miss Jackson to leave. But I unfortunately cannot change its destiny.

~ Pharrell – Happy jumped to #4 kicking Pitbull/Ke$ha – Timber out of the Top 5.

~ One Direction – Story Of My Life is taking an Eminem/Rihanna – The Monster drop to the 30's two weeks after being in the Top 5.

~ Cher Lloyd hosted The Weekend Countdown and Hit-Bound this past weekend. She was pretty bad. These guest hosts need to learn how to do the following:

• Announce the songs we said goodbye to.
• Give recaps of every 5 songs in case I tune in a bit late.
• Announce The Biggest Jump and DROP!!!... Of The Week.

~ If you don't like Armin van Buuren/Trevor Guthrie – This Is What It Feels Like, you must not know the meaning to it. It is about loneliness. If you listen to the lyrics, you'd know that it is about being lonely. "Nobody here knocking at door. The sound of silence I can't take anymore." These lyrics really show how this person has no one to be with. To talk to. That is the meaning of this song. And a lot of people don't like it. Either that or you just don't like Electronic/Dance Music.

~ One Direction – Story Of My Life dropped all the way to #38 pushing Imagine Dragons – Radioactive all the way up to #14. :P

~ A Great Big World/Christina Aguilera – Say Something and Fall Out Boy – Alone Together both had some pretty big drops as well as Story Of My Life.

~ For the Hit-Bound Poll, the song with the least amount of votes was Phantogram – Fall In Love (only 2 votes). And that's the song that debuts.

~ Avicii – Hey Brother would like to enter the Top 10. There's some pretty crappy music in there now that I would have go away. There's at least 3 songs in the Top 10 that should leave. Hopefully, you know what they are.

~ Hopefully, Alone Together falling to the bottom of the countdown means Light Em Up will leave.

~ Nicole (From The Morning Mash Up) had her baby yesterday! That's probably why I didn't hear her yesterday morning.

~ I've decided not to do a Top 45 Post For February.

~ Glad to see Zendaya – Replay isn't catching on.

~ I'm moving my personal Top 40 Chart into this blog. So there will be another post coming tomorrow with my Top 40 from my personal chart.

~ Most Wanted Hit-Bound Song: Peter Thomas/Betty Who – All Of You

~ Jason Derulo – Talk Dirty has yet to reach #1 on My Top 5 Picks.
