4/26:Black Eyed Peas member Fergie co-hosts with me. We'll premiere Let's Get It Started, and have an exclusive performance from a trio of ladies. Our ideas are under wraps as we have a surprise for her. Tamia drops by to perform.

4/27:Grab your earplugs if you don't want to hear some death metal. We're gonna premiere new music from Slipknot(yes, I said Slipknot). I'm gonna call up Kenneth(Slipknot24) to discuss this song. We'll premiere new Lenny Kravitz too.

4/23:Female's Finest

It's that time. The rumors weren't true, as Rosanna won't be stopping by. Anyway, we have Ashanti and Lloyd in the house. They'll perform Southside later on. Let's begin with our salute to Female Fronters. Remember, if you see *special or hidden*, then they aren't originally on the cd. NOTE:Some artists that didn't make it were The Corrs, Sugababes and Girls Aloud. Let's see who did make the cut.

*FEMALE FRONTERS SHOW BEGINS*

We'll waste no time on this list. We start at #40 which is from No Doubt. They have 2 songs on this list. Their 1st one is the recent hit It's My Life. Found on The Singles 92-02, and on Now That's What I Call Music Volume 15.

At #39 is the first of 6 songs from Eden's Crush. This song is called Promise Me. This was a big non-single cut. Found on Popstars as a hidden track.

Showing up at #38 is the first of 3 Spice Girls songs. The first of them is called Wannabe. Before ATRL, this song did alright, and didn't end up the best. Found on Spice World.

Dream is probably the most successful IDRL group. They have 6 songs on the list, with the 1st at #37. This is Back 2 U. Can be found as an extra track on It Was All A Dream.

3LW also has a history of success on IDRL. They've got 6 songs, starting with Gettin Too Heavy. A huge track that did pretty well on the IDRL countdown. Found on self-titled 3LW.

The 2nd one from No Doubt is #35 which is Don't Speak. This song put them on the map, and here it is now, still a clasic. Found on Tragic Kingdom.

At #34 we have the first of 4 Destiny's Child songs. The first is from their 2nd album, and the song is Hey Ladies. I only first played this song almost a year ago. Found on The Writings On The Wall.

Showing up at #33 is the first of 2 songs from Evanescence. The first is My Immortal. Like No Doubt, Evanescence is a boy/girl band. Found on Fallen.

Not many people know about this group that was featured on the show Go For It. They performed on stage after the 'Brain Drain' round, and this song was the 1st one I heard from them. That's 3rd Faze with Shy at #32. Found on self-titled 3rd Faze.

The 2nd one from Destiny's Child is #31. This song broke them into IDRL territory. That would be Bills Bills Bills. Found on The Writings On The Wall.

At #30 is the second cut from Spice Girls. This song was the talk of the town in 1998, which is Spice Of Your Life. Found on Spice World.

The #29 spot is the 1st of 4 songs from No Secrets. They have Kids In America which did well. Found on self-titled No Secrets and on Jimmy Neutron Soundtrack.

At #28 is Play with the first of 2 songs. The 1st is a song that WBLI played a bit, and had a good video that featured Chris Trousdale of Dreamstreet with I'm Gonna Make You Love Me. Found on Us Against The World.

#27 belongs to Lillix with the 1st of 2 songs. Tomorrow had a hot video, and the song was beautiful. Found on Falling Uphill.

Going at #26 is the 2nd from 3LW. Next one from them is I Do, the 1st single from their sophomore effort that features Loon and P. Diddy. Found on A Girl Can Mack.

#25 is the 2nd from Dream, entitled Crazy with Loon. This was a 2003 hit, and did decent with the fact that they have a new member named Kasey. Found on Reality.

The only A*Teens song on this list is Floorfiller, which had a good run on my playlist. They rock #24 with this song. Found on Teen Spirit.

The #23 spot is from Eden's Crush with Love This Way, making appearance #2 for the group. I heard that Rosanna went on to Fox, but that's just me. Found on Popstars, bass mix of song can be found online.

The 2nd song from No Secrets is #22. This is a bizarre name for a song, but you try and figure it out. The song is the name of their group. Found on self-titled No Secrets.

At #21 is the third clip from Destiny's Child, this time it's Emotion. This was their last song as a group, but there may be more from them. Found on Survivor, and on Now That's What I Call Music Volume 9.

Ok, #20 is from Eden's Crush again, this time with 1000 Words. This is the most successful latin song to make my c/d. Found on Popstars, latin-only version can be found online.

The next from 3LW which is #3 for them is their song Neva Get Enuf at #19. This rocked so much and it should've been a hit. Song features Lil Wayne. Found on A Girl Can Mack.

#18 is from Dream with an edgy song that's almost impossible to find. The song Baby(no reference to Ashanti), is hot like fire, and can be helpful to you if found. Can be found as an extra track on It Was All A Dream.

#3 from No Secrets is I Know What I Want at #17. Such a good song, it deserves to be here. The girls worked hard to get this far, and they should get a chance. Found on self-titled No Secrets.

The final song from Spice Girls is #16, which the song is Holler. They'll live on in our hearts, even though their group career is about over...or is it? Found on Forever.

#4 from Eden's Crush is Let Me Know. This song is so hot, it gets the #15 spot on this special countdown. Found on Popstars.

The 4th song from Dream shines in at #14, is the song called This Is Me. That went to #1 on TRL, becoming the first girl group to earn that honor. Found on It Was All A Dream, remix can be found on Totally Hits 2001.

I love this next song. #13 is from 3LW with the song Playas Gon Play, with the song showing lots of love. Possibly one of the best songs from a group that I ever heard. Found on self-titled 3LW, and on Now That's What I Call Music Volume 7.

Taking #12 is the only appearance from Scene 23. Not many people know about them, but let me refresh you memory with I Really Don't Think So. Found on self-titled Scene 23.

#11 is from Eden's Crush again, this time with I Wanna Be Free. Personally, this is my 2nd favorite song from them, and it should've been a single! Found on Popstars.

We tackle the top 10 at #10 with the 5th appearance from 3LW. This song is Ocean, and it's my song of choice to listen to on a romantic night at the beach. Found on self-titled 3LW.

With #9 is the 5th showing from Dream. This song spent over 45 days at #1 on my countdown, but the reason it's not higher than #9 is it wasn't a single. When I Get There is the name. Found on It Was All A Dream.

The final appearance from Evanescence is Bring Me To Life, which features Paul McCoy. Best song from them IMO. Found on Fallen, and on Daredevil Soundtrack.

The last showing from Destiny's Child is #7 with Survivor. Survive this, as they show up pretty high, but not high as expected. Found on Survivor, and on Now That's What I Call Music Volume 7, remix can be found on Carmen:Hip Hopera Soundtrack.

Play takes #6 with I Must Not Chase The Boys, from an album that got little recognition. This is their 2nd showing here. Found on Replay.

Remember, IDRL viewers voted for this. #5 belongs to Lillix with It's About Time. They make their 2nd appearance here, and with a bang. Found on Falling Uphill.

Taking #4 is the final appearance from No Secrets with That's What Girls Do. One of the best group songs of 2003. Found on self-titled No Secrets, and on The Powerpuff Girls Movie Soundtrack(if there is one).

The 3 best female-fronted groups clash it out. #3 belongs to 3LW with No More. Next to Dream and Eden's Crush, this is the best song by a girl group. Found on self-titled 3LW, no rap version can be found on Now That's What I Call Music Volume 6, remix can also be found on self-titled 3LW.

The #2 spot belongs to Eden's Crush with Get Over Yourself. As big as the song was, it wasn't quite enough to be the best song by a female-fronted group. I LOVE THIS SONG! Found on Popstars.

Before we get to #1, let's recap what we've seen so far. First, here's a performance from Lloyd and Ashanti with Southside.

It's Dream with their big smash hit He Loves U Not at #1. IDRL Viewers make this the greatest song by a female-fronted group or band, and who could blame them? This was an amazing song. Found on It Was All A Dream, remix can also be found on It Was All A Dream.

Hilary retired yesterday, who replaces her? Sarah and Stacie retire today, but where?
ATRL Fans took charge, as 6 new songs debut along with 2 returns.

Me:With action this intense, it could only mean IDRL has gone wacky. We'll begin with an artist who only makes 2 appearances today. Debuting at #40 is Rachel Farris with I Should Go. We'll pimp out this wheel in a bit.

40(--). Rachel Farris - I Should Go <1, 40> Debut
