*Songs that I've added to my iPod.
Okay... talk about out with the old and in with the new, eh? First and foremost, we have a new #1 song! "Heart Attack" slips to #2 while Icona Pop's "I Love It" finally moves up to the top spot! Now, second on the list of things to talk about: the freaky chart. Well, I just discovered that Last.fm has screwed me over and a nearly every song that you see increased in ponits this week was off by 2 scrobbles, causing last week's chart to be slower than normal, and I didn't notice. So, this week, I had to fix all of the plays, cusing huge increases for many songs. ("#thatPOWER" was off by three scrobbles for some reason...) I'm still not entirely sure where in the world the missing scrobbles came from. I'm fairly certain they were from last Tuesday and Thursday, so all of the missing scrobbles were added into the 3-month and 1-month part of the formula, as I'm 95% sure no song was missing scrobbles from the 1-week part of the formula. Believe me, I was so pissed I couldn't see straight and I'm still shaking from the stress of this being off so much, but what's done is done. Now, back to the chart. Selena Gomez shoots up from #6 to #3, pushing down "Can't Hold Us," so the battle to replace "I Love It" starts now! Macklemore or Selena? Who will get there first?! But, there's a few songs down the chart that are moving up at stellar speeds. First up, at #19 is Serena Ryder's "Stompa." I'm fairly certain this should've been on last week's chart in the mid-20s, explaining the huge debut. (Those who remember, "Stompa" was an add over 2 months ago, so the #19 debut seems really strange.) Below "Stompa," "DNA" and "We Can't Stop" both debut with the same amount of points. "DNA" is the second single from Little Mix, finally released in the US after smashing in the UK, while "We Can't Stop" is the brand new single from Miley Cyrus released this week! "Blurred Lines" and "Treasure" both also finally debut on the chart and are expected to rocket up the chart. The chart's biggest point gainer comes from Carrie Underwood's "See You Again," though NOT aided by that awful music video. I just really like the song. A record eight songs debut on the chart this week, including two album tracks! "Made in the USA" from Demi Lovato and "Just One Yesterday" from Fall Out Boy. Speaking of Fall Out Boy, they have two hits in the top ten this week. Not many artists are able to do this feat! The few that have include P!nk, Taylor Swift, and Ke$ha. The eight songs kicked off are at least all pretty old...
