A little more insight on just how dominant "Black & Yellow" was this week:

• The song itself is #1 for a second week, and actually increased its bullet from the week before, thanks to hearing it (and hearing it referenced) frequently this weekend while on a trip with friends.
• Girl Talk's "Triple Double", which features a full verse/full chorus vocal sample from "Black & Yellow" toward the end, ramps up 28-23 upon the likelihood that I'll be buying tickets to his show in March.
• Canadian rapper J.Reyez spends his second week on the chart with "Cuz I'm Yellow", which is - you guessed it - an Asian take on the song.
• Finally, a Seahawks-themed version makes the chart from Seattle rapper TNT. It probably won't last more than another week on the chart, but it came around in quite a timely fashion as the 'Hawks surprised the NFL with a playoff victory.

Any of the last 3 songs being on the chart would most likely be a record (for the original and one adaptation charting simultaneously)... but this week, there are three.

"All I Do Is Win" gets the ON FIRE nod this week as it soars into the top 10 (almost top 5; "No Love" is screaming up the chart as well and blocked it). This comes after my beloved Auburn Tigers won the national championship this past Monday. Lots of fans considered "AIDIW" to be a quasi-anthem for the team, and I've been blasting it too.

"Memories" and "Tonight" receive weekend adjustments after the aforementioned weekend, but for a different reason than "Black & Yellow". "Drum Song" is the first instrumental to chart in quite a while, I imagine.

First of all, Matt, the diversity on your chart is astounding. Well done.

Hope you go and have fun. I imagine attending a Girl Talk show is a lot more fun than working a Girl Talk show. But that all depends on your tolerance for hipsters and suburban rich-kid delinquents all dancing their asses off around you. Disciplining them from the relative peace of the main door is taxing on the patience enough as it is.

That's funny. I saw this when I posted my previous chart, but didn't ask/assume because you already had this week's chart posted with the explanation.

Nick's Notes:
"Welcome to the Family" is certainly not done. So much competition among the Top 3 that I actually had to listen to each song back to back to back. "Coffee and Cigarettes" makes a bold leap into the Top 5 after The Girl alerted me to a rerun of last month's Conan performance. All other things JEW more or less stabilize because I probably played Invented in the car again. Definitely spun A Thousand Suns in the car because I went to The Girl's house again. (I'll inevitably switch it out when I go over there sooner or later.)

"The Suburbs" and "Afraid of Everyone" may have peaked. Hopefully "Terrible Love" hasn't. "Sing" is slowly growing on me.

"Grenade" is a likely future Top 10.

"Axe to Fall" is easily the most played mp3 on my iPod at work. As such, it finally debuts on my chart, dissonant and 1:43 though it may be. ("Concubine" is only 1:19, for what it's worth.) Thanks for reading.

Heh. It's not like I try, obviously, but looking at it... yeah, it's a pretty wide range.

Yes, it'll be interesting going to that show, as it usually takes several drinks for me to even think about dancing. But it seems like s***-tons of fun. And I have to make up for the time that I missed not checking out his music (still kicking myself, considering I put a mashup in the top 20 of my personal chart in 2002!).
