Nick's Notes:
1-10:
I had no idea "Whatever You Like" would storm the Top 3 this week. It may very well be my next #1, declining national interest be damned.

11-20:
Another radio spin for "Hearts Burst Into Fire" causes it to rebound 3 spots against little competition. (And I'm hearing it again as I type.)

31-40:
The Danzig contenders fell off the chart this week. Expect these two Top 40 entries to sink like stones next week. There's not a whole lot of competitive enthusiasm in this range. Case in point: There's no new interest in that Mudvayne song, yet it gets vacuumed up three spots.

Contenders:
"Green Light" probably should've made the list last week. Thanks for reading.

Well, lookit that. Nick and Matt, two rock/alternative fans, might each have different T.I. songs at the tops of their charts simultaneously.

44 40 Flo Rida f/will.i.am "In the Ayer"
49 41 Coldplay "Lost!"
50 42 Rise Against "Re-Education (Through Labor)"
-- 43 Jon McLaughlin "Beating My Heart"
34 44 Mainstay "Become Who You Are"
42 45 Anberlin "Younglife"
43 46 Weezer "Everybody Get Dangerous"
-- 47 Incubus "Love Hurts"
41 48 Avenged Sevenfold "Afterlife"
35 49 Jonathan Davis f/Jim Root "Got Money"
-- 50 T-Pain "Freeze"

38 -- Seether "Rise Above This"
39 -- Carolina Liar "I'm Not Over"
47 -- Paramore "Let the Flames Begin"

It's now safe to say the past two weeks were the peak for Anberlin's New Surrender songs on this chart. 21 of the top 30 are bulleted (more on that in a bit), and 8 of 9 unbulleted songs are from Anberlin ("American Boy" being the only other one). "Haight Street" might have one more week left in it at the top, though.

Kanye West finally has a second top-5 hit from Graduation ("Good Life" just missed with a #7 peak) -- just as the lead single from his new album makes the top 20. Snow Patrol bounces back just a bit, but don't expect another run-up into the top 5.

12-24 is a mess. No song can gain more than 3 positions, and of all artists, Britney Spears is the highest of 2 to do so. Kid Rock picked a bad time to regain a small bullet, while Fall Out Boy may or may not have a steep fall next week. Katy Perry is still fighting to get back in the top 20. Here's her chart run: 24-19-21-22-22-21.

It'll be interesting to see whether Framing Hanley can outdo Jonathan Davis's "Got Money", considering my first reaction to hearing the "Lollipop" remake was that "Got Money" was better. I'm thinking it doesn't have the legs to get past "GM"'s #19 peak, though.

The chart gets pretty weak past #30, as I haven't been diligent in seeking out new music lately. Airborne Toxic Event and O.A.R. make double-digit position gains with little effort.

--- 39. (01) Jupiter One - "Platform Moon" [39]
29. 40. (07) The Black Keys - "So He Won't Break" [10 (2)]

Yeah, the top several has been redundant mostly in recent weeks. But I am still not really done with "L.E.S." yet "Viva" feels more done with me. I don't think KoL are done but doubt they'll get much higher.
Santogold and Portishead's songs up in the Top 20 will likely be peaked, but Smashing Pumpkins and STG are what to look for, really. "Turned to Real Life" from the album was considered for contention. However, I feel like the Jupiter One single I included should've been there from the beginning, considerably more memorable than "Countdown."
I've been pulling for "Reckoner" ever since I saw the music video at their Myspace. It would've been more of a no-brainer if it had one much earlier in the album's course.
