The Duke Spirit “The Step And The Walk”

Ingrid Michaelson “The Way I Am”
Janet Jackson “Feedback”

|
My Take on the Adds/Re-adds: 3.5/6 (.5 for Usher only because Young Jeezy is in the song.) Nice to See Maroon 5 back on, Augustana and Madonna were nice adds, but the B-52's were the worst of the 6 added.
Removals: Ingrid and The Duke Spirit were horrible piece of **** removals, moreso the latter of those 2 listed. It was a matter of time that Feist, Janet, and Vampire Weekend were gone.
Spin Gains/Losses: No gains this week. But in the losses departement, two horrible spins losses occurred, and they were directed at the Foo Fighters and Three Days Grace.
Best Song(s) on the VH1 Playlist [16]: Leona Lewis “Bleeding Love”, OneRepublic “Stop And Stare”, Jordin Sparks/Chris Brown “No Air”, Sara Bareilles “Love Song”, Buckcherry “Sorry”, REM “Supernatural Superserious", Foo Fighters “Long Road To Ruin”, Three Days Grace “Never Too Late”, Lifehouse “Whatever It Takes”, Lupe Fiasco/Matthew Santos “Superstar”, Maroon 5 “Won’t Go Home Without You”, Flyleaf “All Around Me”, Gavin DeGraw “In Love With A Girl”, Yael Naïm “New Soul”, Jack Johnson “If I Had Eyes”, and The Bravery “Believe”
Worst Song(s) on the VH1 Playlist [3]: The B-52’s “Funplex”, James Blunt “Carry You Home”, and George Michael “An Easier Affair”

Good Removals for this week,I'm glad Feist & Ingrid were removed,Feist & Ingrid never made the countdown so hopefully they'll be removed from the voting list Saurday as well.I knew Janet was going to be removed soon,but I have a feeling she'll last one more week on the voting list.Three Days Grace definately should be getting more spins.I'm surprised Daughtry hasn't lost any spins this week.Glad to see Lifehouse and OneRepublic still getting a good amount of spins.And Go Leona at getting 45+ spins 2 weeks in a row so far.

They should've bumped off Falling Slowly. Honestly, I'm not upset Ingrid is removed....she didn't wow me enough. Good that Janet is gone and the others are OK.

Is Maroon 5 re-releasing "Won't Go Home Without You"? Because it's downloads are going up, it's rising up the Hot 100 again, and now the VH1 re-add.

I have an idea: Post the VSPOT Top 20 Recaps in a separate thread, just like w/ TRL, and have it and the VSPOT Discussion Thread be stickied so that people want to look at the recaps without having to look at comments. I think it would help with the organization, bandwith use, and space. Should it be a good idea or not?
If I post the VSPOT Top 20 Recaps on a separate thread, then this thread should be renamed as the VH1 VSPOT Top 20 Discussion Thread.

Thanks! It seems like it is filmed in advance though, before voting closes. Anyone know when that is?
Also, do the Cold, Mild, Hot icons relate to where they will show up in the countdown at all?

Yeah the countdown is a week behind in tallying votes,the symbols show which songs are getting the least,some votes,and the most votes and they record the show during the week,I don't know what specific day but you can tell they do it on a weekday.

and Augustana added to the Voting list. (The latter will likely debut, and the former may possibly be a CC.)
