Kendra:Morning loves, Kendra 'Saucy Baby' Morris here. I promise you some new jammies soon. Let's get right to #6 and it's from a girl nobody expected to be huge, Mike says it's his Single Of The Year. Really? Well, see for yourself.
6. Sara Bareilles "Love Song" (Little Voice) USA [2,873 pts] Peak:5@1 <#52 MWC> (221,489) [Airplay:#4]
Sara rocked on for 52 shows with her 2nd Endchart appearance for Love Song. While she spent a majority of her run in 2008 she did have some 2007 time with this and it got to #1 a whopping 5 times which is among the top 6 highest #1s for the year. This had a ton of airplay and got quite a bit of Fan Support by getting #6 there. Sara was one of the favorites to win the Song Of The Year and finished 2nd in Best New Artist to Lights on the MWC. She woulda liked to have had a longer run but oh well, stuff happens. She's #6 for 2008. Love Song IMO is the Best Single Of The Year though. If you're looking for a love song, Sara ain't gonna write you one. It's more of an angst-ridden song than you might think but it's amazing, the video is great, her voice is beautiful and I personally think she and Leona Lewis are #1 and #2 for Best New Artist on Billboard. (Flo Rida would be nowhere near that list at like #100 and Katy would be like #3 just ahead of Duffy) Sara is a truly gifted singer and her album is a MUST-GET! Love Song = Epic, beautiful song and she plays guitar and piano too. Sara's also won a lot of MWC Awards this year as well, it was her year for sure. Kendra:Sara could very well be back in the top 6 next year of the Endchart....NOT if I have something to say about it. I'm not sure about my own piano skills. EXTRA:As Mike mentioned, this was the #1 Single Of 2008. Enjoy the video which you've probably seen a bunch of times, and it even retired on TRL which SHOULD'VE hit #1 if not for that played-out Flo Rida "Low" song which isn't creative, boring and has T-Pain...but enough about Flo, this is Sara's moment. Enjoy her video again
LYRICS:Enjoy the beauty Head under water
And you tell me to breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
Made room for me but it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song today
I learned the hard way
That they all say things you want to hear
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
Your twisted words,
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry
Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song today
Promise me that you'll leave the light on
To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
'cause I believe there's a way you can love me
Because I say
I won't write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
Is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it for a minute
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
There's a reason to
Write you a love song today

Instant Analysis on Sara and Lights are gonna be done sometime this weekend, and I will also do Natalie Grant and Joanna Martino one as well as Ashley Tisdale, Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus
Love Song had a monster year, it's the 2nd highest USA song on this year's list.
We got 2 Australia, 1 USA, 1 Mexico and 1 Canada left
Here's some facts for you guys to know about my Endchart
-Only twice since 1997 has an artist outside the USA topped my Endchart (Melissa O'Neil 2006 with Speechless and Stephanie McIntosh 2007 with So Do I Say Sorry First)
-No band/group has been #1 on the Endchart since 2000:Linkin Park "One Step Closer" & Dream "He Loves U Not"
-5 times since 2000 that a song from a IDRL/MWC First-time charter has been #1 on the Endchart (Linkin Park/Dream, Willa Ford, Ashanti, Natalie Alvarado, Melissa O'Neil)
-No non-single has topped the Endchart since 2004:Rachel Farris "It's All You")
-There has never been this few artists from the USA in the top 5 in Endchart history, only 1 USA singer (Natalie Grant) in the top 5.
-This is the fewest amount of USA artists in the top 10 in Endchart history, just 3 (Sara Bareilles, Britt Nicole, Natalie Grant)
-The oldest artist to ever top the Endchart this decade is Rachel Farris in 2004
-No Spanish singer has ever had back-to-back Top 5 Endchart appearances, Belinda becomes the first
-No Christian singer has ever had a Top 20 Endchart appearance before 1/1/2008, 5 instances in 2008 (Britt Nicole, Natalie Grant, Skillet, Joanna Martino, Krystal Meyers, technically Katy Perry)
-No Duet has topped the Endchart
I must warn you guys, Love Song is the last song on my chart that all of you know by now. The last 5 you may or may not know so if you don't know who they are, keep it here to check them out.
Kendra:Morning loves, Kendra 'Saucy Baby' Morris here. I promise you some new jammies soon. Let's get right to #6 and it's from a girl nobody expected to be huge, Mike says it's his Single Of The Year. Really? Well, see for yourself.
