On the Digital Songs chart this week, LMFAO reclaims the top slot with "Sexy and I Know It" rising 3-1 with just a bit over 149,000 downloads sold (down 5%). Last week's leader, Bruno Mars' "It Will Rain," falls to No. 4 with 129,000 (down 22%).
"Sexy's" 149,000 frame is the smallest at No. 1 since Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" was tops with just under 149,000 in the sales week ending Dec. 21, 2008. Further, this is the second week the No. 1 Digital Song has sold less than 200,000 -- the first time we've had back-to-back sub-200,000 frames at the top since May of 2010.
Back in this week's top 10, Rihanna's "We Found Love" (featuring Calvin Harris), maintains its No. 2 position (just under 149,000; down 9%) while the "Glee" cast's cover of Fun.'s "We Are Young" debuts at No. 3 with 137,000. The original version by the band debuts down at No. 25 with 49,000 (up 1,650%).
Flo Rida's "Good Feeling" falls 4-5 (125,000; down 1%), Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away" rises 7-6 (117,000; up 24%) and Jay-Z and Kanye West's "Ni**as In Paris" slips 5-7 (108,000; down 5%). Perry's track benefits from a 69-cent sale price in the iTunes Store, in addition to buzz generated by her hosting turn on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" on Dec. 10.
Toby Keith's "Red Solo Cup" gains thanks to the "Glee" cast's rendition of the tune last week on the Fox TV show, as it rises 20-8 with 96,000 (up 90%). It's the first time the country star has visited the top 10. ("Glee's" version of "Solo" starts at No. 60 with 24,000).
T-Pain's "5 O'Clock" (featuring Wiz Khalifa & Lily Allen) slides 8-9 with 88,000 (down 7%) and Adele's "Someone Like You" moves 9-10 with 84,000 (down 10%).
Digital track sales this past week totaled 21.67 million downloads, up 5% compared to last week (20.67 million) and up 6% stacked next to the comparable week of 2010 (20.47 million). Year to date track sales are at 1.16 billion, up 9% compared to the same total at this point last year (1.06 billion).
