Since word got around that WUW video is coming around, the fans didn't hesitate to vote for that song like mad. Is it enough to take #1? We've got a few returns today, starting with the latest from Lloyd Banks. Here's I'm So Fly. We'll roll it down from there, but we have Juvenile performing too and a first look at Lost Prophets new one, before we premiere it.

PREMIERE:Bowling For Soup - 1985 (They are looking to hit #1 for the first time after 2002's GATBGW hit #2)
PREMIERE:Joss Stone - You Had Me (She is still looking for her first top 10 hit on IDRL, and she may just do it with this video)

BTW Swaw, in order for Beyonce to get better odds of moving up, you need to request at least 5 songs. Just requesting one song won't always do it.

03. Christina Milian - Miss You Like Crazy (20, 1@1) +1 (5,375 spins)

PEEK:Lost Prophets - Last Summer
PERFORMANCE:Juvenile - Slow Motion

You guys know your covers! Here's how we go.

Infamous extends his lead to 13, Neon jumps to 12, Jeremy scores his 2nd and Tofer joins the leaderboard. I'm sorry Alexa, but Real Love and Word Up are not electronic...

-----------------------------------
Mike's Pick Of The Week:Zena - Been Around The World

No, it's not Tina Novak so don't even say anything. Word around the IDRL Studio says that Zena used to be the 4th member of Mis-Teeq along with Sabrina, Su-Elise and Alesha. Zena's direction of music is a little tricky to figure out, but she is determined to pass her old groupmates. Before IDRL today, she learned that this was her target.

ZENA'S GOAL:Pass Mis-Teeq's Scandalous which has 15 days at #1 and 5 times at #1 on MWC.

Her quest begins tomorrow.
