it's never gonna happen with weird al because they probably think it's a novelty video like the bum bum song was & trl has never showed a weird al or premiered one only vh1 plays him so i would'nt count on trl ever premiereing him cause he's not a real artist he's just a novelity artist to trl.

Great, you again.

They showed 2GETHER videos on TRL back in 2000; they were novelty artists. Why can't Weird Al be shown?

5 more days for Evanescence...

[Departure]

No I disagree.

You have Rock, Rap, R&B, and Pop. Only thing missing is Country.

[Illegal]

Vote for Lady Sovereign!!

[Miche]

Pink at n. 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Semáforo]

10.Evanescence - Call Me When You're Sober (35th Day/-1/Peak:01[9])
- NOOO!!! This HAS to retire!!!
09.Akon f/ Eminem - Smack That (2nd Day/+1/Peak:09)
- Incredibly catchy! I think it might have a similar run to One Blood.
08.Jessica Simpson - I Belong To Me (1st Day/DEBUT/Peak:08)
- Not feeling the song or the video too much... But maybe Jessica will have some success with this one.
07.MCR - Welcome To The Black Parade (9th Day/-2/Peak:03)
- I liked this last week, but now I'm not feeling it as much.
06.Vanessa Hudgens - Come Back To Me (9th Day/+1/Peak:03)
- Make like the leaves and fall, bitch!
05.Lady Sovereign - Love Me Or Hate Me (3rd Day/+1/Peak:05)
- This is the new Shop Stopper for me. It definently deserves space on the c/d, but I don't think it's worth of Top 5.
04.Beyonce - Ring The Alarm (30th Day/=/Peak:01[1])
- Retire, and let Irreplacable dominate the c/d.
03.AFI - Love Like Winter (10th Day/-2/Peak:01[4])
- I'd like to see this get more days at #1.
02.JoJo - Too Little Too Late (27th Day/+1/Peak:02) 13%
- *gasp* New peak!!! But JoJo HAS to get #1 soon! And then retire there, of course
01.Pink - U + UR Hand (6th Day/+1/Peak:01[1]) 14%
- I'm glad P!nk is finally doing well with an IND video.

Falloffs:
Cassie - Long Way 2 Go @ #08
- Please just stay off.

TRL First Look:
Justin Timberlake f/ T.I. - My Love
- ...And let the #1s rack up.

[Adrian]

wow JT new vid
JoJo, Pink ;eek:
Cassie fell off

it's a perfect countdown

[SHADE 45]

Let Ev fall off for Justin and have The Kill debut knocking off Hudgens

5/10, Lady Sorveign has the most annoying and pointless song on the countdown

But That's Good!
C'mon Jojo, just +1 and you'll be @ #1

And Akon Will Fall For Justin

I wouldn't say will because I believe Evanescence will probably fall for Justin because I think Akon is going to end up being #1 just because Eminem is in the video and the song.

[faint_lpc]

wow, Pink #1 ^___^
and new JT video , but I thought it would be a World Premiere instead of a First Look :-/

Jojo being in the top 2, wow. Trl is finally understanding what real music is these days.

Wait wait, what? Am I the only person who noticed the absurdness of this post?

First off, i'd be one of the first true rock fans to defend Too Little, Too Late because it's something that pop music has been lacking lately and that is pure innocence so I won't bash JoJo, but I fail to see how AFI and Evanescence do not qualify as "real music".

Not only that, but TRL has never been a calling card for "real" music. If "real" music makes it on, it's either because they're really popular at the moment or, as was the case in the past when votes actually mattered and counted, they have a rabid fanbase. Even going back to the glory days of TRL, it was almost always dominated by boy bands and teen pop female singers. Doesn't seem like they advocated "real" music then. What makes it different now when the countdown has an artist trying way too hard to be popular at #1? It was the same way seven years ago, when *NSYNC and BSB were trying way too hard to be popular(they succeeded, of course, but that's beside the point...).

Once again, i'm not bashing your opinion in terms of liking JoJo. If you want to like her, that's your business. But I am bashing your theory that TRL understands what "real" music is when, in reality, they NEVER understood what "real" music is.

Here is my ideal countdown for October 12, 2006.

10. JoJo - Too Little Too Late (I don't like to see this video over AFI's video on the TRL countdown. It's time for me to hear her next single because this one is too boring IMO.)
9. Jessica Simpson - I Belong To Me (She doesn't look glamorous in this video like she did in "A Public Affair." I think she cut her own hair to make an artistic statement in the video. Anyway, I prefer "A Public Affair" over this video.)
8. Vanessa Hudgens - Come Back To Me (I still want to hear the other songs off her album. One line in this song has a melody that sounds just like that of the verses of Avril Lavigne's song "Complicated" where she sings "chill out, whatcha yelling for.")
7. Beyonce - Ring The Alarm (I'm already tired of this song. It was good for a while, but now I changed my mind about this song.)
6. Akon f/ Eminem - Smack That (The two best things about this video are Eminem's rhymes and the ladies. I'm not a big fan of Akon's singing.)
5. MCR - Welcome To The Black Parade
4. Evanescence - Call Me When You're Sober (I voted for Evanescence so they wouldn't fall off. I shall vote for them again. I hope Justin Timberlake doesn't kick off Evanescence on Monday.)
3. Lady Sovereign - Love Me Or Hate Me
2. Pink - U + UR Hand (I just hope that Pink can retire on TRL.)
1. AFI - Love Like Winter (Same with AFI and retirement on TRL.)

[Matto]

Alright this is pathetic but I will be voting for Ev this weeked..

Lol, sorry. I didn't mean it that way. I...well, what I meant was. You can't deny Jojo's song is a positive direction in where pop music is going. Pop artists are coming out with just hits these days without any meaning whatsoever. Then Jojo comes out with an amazing song "Too Little Too Late" She is 15 and she doesns't rely on Sexyback, London Bridge, A Public Affair, Deju Vu, etc. beats to become big. Instead she actually sings and uses her voice well. Yes I agree that post was a little absurd but that reference was only toward Jojo being at 2. Yes AFI and Evanescence is real music. But seeing Jojo (back then) barely break the top 7 with that song was just plain retarded and stupid. But now she is the top 2 so I kind of made that statement. I hope you understand, sorry about that, I should have made it more clearer. Just wait, when she hit's one, who knows what I will post .

[Big Dreams]

Expect a Bow Wow 1st look next week this song is starting to become really hot and the video is too especially towards the end!

[Delicious]

MCR are so overrated. They get so old so fast and its annoying hot mtv hypes the hell out of them for no reason.

Happy for JoJo, the video is finally getting what it deserves and hopefully it will retire like Leave. SO happy for Jessica debuting at #8 too, I really hope she can get that #1 with this video
