This is ********! 27 songs only?

No, I am NOT kidding. FMQB has said that.

That's what happens when VH1 decided to cut Nocturnal State from 2 hours to 1.

BAD WEEK for removes. 5 bands gone and no bands enter. Well we're guaranteed 2 debuts next week possibly.

0/5 on the removals (very bad removals on VH1's part)
0.75/2 on the adds (Kelly's song is NOT that great, come on. It's good, but it's not like 'OMG, best ever!'(

[Rico Shameless v2]

Go Fray, Nickelback, Britney, and John

[My Take on the VH1 Top 20 (01.31.2009)
The Good:
Taylor's 1st ever VH1 Top 20 #1
P!nk +8 to #4
The Fray +2 to #12
Kelly Clarkson WP.
AAR +5 to #3
Kanye +7 to #10
Katy +3 to #17
Lady Gaga +2 to #13
Lifehouse +3 to #8
All 3 of the CCs

The Indifferent:
Nickelback -1 to #2
Britney +1 to #9

The Bad:
Leona Lewis didn't debut
Natasha B. debuted too low at #20.
Rihanna/JT -9 to #11
JM/CC -3 to #19
PCD -9 to #15
DC -2 to #5
FOB -7 to #14
Beyoncé -3 to #7
The Killers -3 to #16
AB -1 to #6

Kid Rock fell out. )
Bret Michaels, Lifehouse, and Alter Bridge get the Short Treatment
No HoneyHoney, Eric, Erin, Buckcherry, or Snow Patrol on anywhere. (They deserve at least a CC spot)

Adds/removals for 02.07's voting list:
Adds: 1.25/2 (Kelly add great. Where the hell is U2?)
Removes: 0/5 (All 5 removals, especially HoneyHoney, AB, and Lifehouse are bad. LIJ, not as good as VLV, Lost!, or VH)

I'm still mad VH1 hasn't added Mixi yet I keep putting her in Wildcard and apparently VH1 hasn't answered the call yet

The David Archuleta fans are mad too that ALTNOY hasn't been added either

My Take on the Adds/Re-Adds (02.09): 2.5/6 (Living Things and Carolina Liar are great adds, Ne-Yo ok, the other 3, IDK.)
Removals: 0.67/4 (U2's doesn't count, but all four are bad removals... although all 4, especially Sex on Fire and Love Hurts [as much as I like it], were due for the gates anyway.)
The Spin Gainers [1]: JM/CC [Med-Large]
The Spin Droppers [1]: Kid Rock [Medium-On]

My Take on the Adds/Re-Adds (02.02): 2/3 (U2's doesn't' count as it wasn't on the playlist. All others are good adds.)
Removals: 0/6 (All 6 are crap removals, especially HoneyHoney and Lifehouse)
The Spin Gainers [2]: The Fray [XL-Gung Ho], AAR [L-XL]
The Spin Droppers [0]: none
