I'm not even going to say it. I'm just going to smile and nod.
Anywho, Korn goes for two in a row, as the competition at the top heats up. Meanwhile, a song vaults way up on the countdown, while two songs debut in the top fifteen. And is this the week that The Mars Volta FINALLY fell off?!

), Hey, Mr. DJ, Put A Record On and The Next Mr. Lavigne for commenting, numbering, whatevering.
Now, I do have a question to pose for you lovely people. I am faced with a dilemma. I *really* like "We Made It", a collaboration between Busta Rhymes and Linkin Park. My question is this:
Can I include "We Made It" on next week's BoR, or is it just too non-rock for it to make it on?
This is one reason why I've considered changing the name of the countdown, so that I can actually include non-rock songs on it, but I could also make the argument that there would only one or two non-rock songs on the countdown, anyway. I don't know.
Alright, next week, Korn goes for three in a row at #1, as the stiffest competition in BoR history continues. Just how high will "Violet Hill" jump next week? Will The Offspring's "Hammerhead" destroy the competition in its debut week? And will "We Made It" override the rules and make it on? OOH, MYSTERY! INTRIGUE! DRAMA!
I'll see you next week. Promise.
