YOU OUGHTA KNOW
Adele “Chasing Pavements”

Thriving Ivory "Angels On The Moon"
My Take on the Adds/Re-adds: 3.60/5 (Alanis, Snow Patrol, James Morrison plus 0.60 for Kanye. The Fireman-- IDK.)
Removals: 1.5/7 (AC/DC, Xtina, and Rocco DeLuca and The Burden were very ****** removals, P!nk and Snow Patrol had to go to make room for their new videos, DCfC, and Keane, although 2+ months old, were bad removals.
The Spin Gainers [4]: 4 Great spin jumpers in David Cook, Coldplay, Rihanna, and FOB.
The Spin Losses [1]: OAR was the lone unlucky turkey by getting their spins cut down to Large.
Best Song(s) on the VH1 Playlist [28]: Jason Mraz “I’m Yours”, Thriving Ivory "Angels On The Moon", OAR “Shattered”, Secondhand Serenade “Fall For You”, Matt Nathanson “Come On Get Higher”, Eric Hutchinson “Rock and Roll”, Lifehouse "Broken", Alter Bridge “Watch Over You”, Katy Perry “Hot N' Cold”, Kings Of Leon "Sex On Fire", The Killers "Human", Saving Abel "Addicted", Missy Higgins "Where I Stood", John Mellencamp "Troubled Land", Duffy "Stepping Stone", Fall Out Boy "I Don't Care", The All-American Rejects "Gives You Hell", David Cook "Light On", Beyoncé "If I Were A Boy", Coldplay "Lovers In Japan", Incubus "Love Hurts", Hinder "Without You", SafetySuit "Someone Like You", Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)", Rihanna/Justin Timberlake "Rehab", Kid Rock "Roll On", Alanis Morissette "Not As We", and Snow Patrol "Crack The Shutters".
Worst Song(s) on the VH1 Playlist [6]: Jennifer Hudson "Spotlight", David Archuleta "Crush" (still so-so, but it's starting to grow on me), Lenka "The Show" (absolute garbage song), Adele "Chasing Pavements" (Spun way too much and very annoying, as it's all over radio too), Britney Spears "Womanizer" (simply annoying), and Ne-Yo "Miss Independent" (better than Closer... just barely.)
