BREAKING NEWS: Lollipop is not #1. Good girl, Rihanna, for kicking Lil' Wayne to the moon and out of #1!

I'm happy that Rihanna took Lil' Wayne out of the top spot, but Lollipop is a good song still.
I hope that Bye Bye gets on the countdown soon, but I'm surprised to see that after about 3 months of release that Touch My Body is #1 on the people's votes.
Go MIMI!

Sorry, Mariah_4life, I hate Lollipop and Sexy Can I both and Lil' Wayne's song is annoying and makes Soulja Boy's Crank That, Flo-Rida/T-Pain's Low, and Sean Kingston's songs look good in comparison.
My Ideal Top 10 + On-Deck:
On-Deck:
16. Shwayze, Buzzin' (one of the 3 decent rap songs on MTV and MTV2, others being Atmosphere and Kidz In The Hall.)
15. Linkin Park, Leave Out All The Rest
14. Justin Nozuka, After Tonight
13. Leona Lewis, Bleeding Love
12. Maroon 5/Rihanna, If I Never See Your Face Again
11. The Last Goodnight, Stay Beautiful
Top 10:
10. Sara Bareilles, Bottle It Up
9. Metro Station, Shake It
8. Gavin DeGraw, I'm In Love With A Girl
7. Weezer, Pork and Beans
6. Charlotte Sometimes, How I Could Just Kill A Man
5. Coldplay, Violet Hill
4. DCfC, I Will Possess Your Heart
3. Augustana, Sweet and Low
2. Atreyu, Falling Down
1. Natasha Bedingfield, Pocketful of Sunshine

Suggestions For TRL Today
Hey, my name is Andy, I'm 16, and I'm from Missouri. I began watching TRL in June 2003 and watched it daily until January 2006, when it was moved to an earlier time slot. I'm going to be brutally honest. The show had been going downhill for quite some time. Had it "always been about the fans," it wouldn't be in the position it is now. I was actually thinking the show was a lost cause, but the "vent" has given me some hope. My idea to make TRL better is essentially a renaissance - to go back to its roots (the music and the fans). My recommendations are as follows... 5 days-per-week, 50-day retirement rule, 90-minute shows, only TRL votes factor, less hiatuses, live - not taped, better time slot, new graphics and set. Thank you for your consideration. P.S. As cheesy as it may sound, TRL use to be the highlight of my day and was what I looked forward to after school. I would love for the show to turn things around and make it to its 10-year anniversary in September. - ATRL.net member and former fan, Andy R.
Hey Andy. First of all, thanks for sticking with us. At its core, TRL has always been about fans like you, and your continued passion is a big part of what keeps us going strong. In terms of your comments, you bring up some very interesting points. We do have a lot of change in store, but as is often the case in television, change doesn't happen overnight. As you know, TRL has been on the air for nearly a decade, and it wouldn't have been able to survive without reinventing itself through graphics, set design, and creative content. To that end, we are in the process of developing a new look for the studio, new graphics are currently being created, and we have lots of new segments that will debut in a matter of weeks. And while we know this doesn't answer all of your questions, you can rest assured that every concern being brought up by you and our other viewers is being tackled full-force by the TRL staff. We know we'll never be able to satisfy everyone, but we'll damn well try. So keep the faith, keep watching, and keep venting.

I still don't understand why nobody's voting for Bye Bye....why is it still freakin' Touch My Body? I think you think way too hard.
Natasha fell off  why did Plies have to knock her off? He'll be out of the picture in 2-3 years.

Congrats to Mimi for still being on the countdown with "Touch My Body." LOL at TMB at #1 on TRL votes 3 months after its release.

I think TRL is letting TMB stay on so it can retire....does anyone agree with that conclusion?

I really dislike the way how the videos are chosen to be on the countdown
It should be all votes, votes only
like the old school TRL
It is now impossible for alot of videos to reach the countdown
For example, alot of the Madonna fans are trying to get "Give it 2 Me" on the countdown
But the only way that would be possible is for it to be in the top streams at MTV.com, top 10 in airplay and downloads
The single is not even released yet, nor has it been sent to radio yet.
It's impossible, the only way to get it on the countdown is to have every fan vote every minute of their day
argg
im steamed and angry!

Everyone is steamed and angry....go to the Vent. Lots of people are doing it.
Personally, I think there are too many ringtones commercials, they're to blame
