ADAM LAMBERT
IF I HAD YOU
For Your Entertainment
Days: 15 | Peak: 07
For an artist like Adam Lambert who's known for his uniqueness especially during his Idol days, "If I Had You" seems so bland. However, in the world of generic beats and catchy choruses, the song is a perfect fit. The skanks still have something to look forward to as Adam appears one final time later on.
LINKIN PARK
THE CATALYST
A Thousand Suns
Days: 30 | Peak: 05
One of the songs that I disliked in the beginning, but really liked after hearing it more often. It sounds really good when you have it in full volume. This song reminds me somehow of "Bleed It Out" which is one of the weakest LP singles ever in my opinion.
THERE FOR TOMORROW
DEATHBED
A Little Faster
Days: 25 | Peak: 02
This Orlando-based quartet is one of my most favorite discoveries in the past two years and their album just totally rocks. "Deathbed" is surely one of the better songs from the album and its a good choice for a single, but they need to release "Sore Winner" next.
CASCADA
PYROMANIA
Single
Days: 41 | Peak: 01[5]
I really find this song cheap because its a total rip-off of "Poker Face", but what can I do, its infectious and inescapable. Cascada definitely has won me over with this tuh-tuh-tuh-track.

NEED YOU NOW
Need You Now

This song is one perfect example of a grower. It grew on me so slow that I only started loving it when everyone was starting to get tired of it. I really love the chorus, I think it's a masterpiece.
More coming your way! Next up we have band that likes to repeat a certain two-letter syllable, another band who makes their last (and first) appearance, and a band that I just got to know this year. Also, two female artists, one of them having the final and highest re-entering song on this year's Top 150. Those and more on the next update!
I cannot believe you're placing songs that didn't enter your countdown on the top 50!!! You're too ashamed of putting them in your top ten. What if Bieber is on the top 50?
15/15 for the past 3 sets. I see B.o.B too! Can't wait for the top 40 and see more surprises...
