Nick's Notes:
"Jesus of Suburbia" is struggling because I don't hear it on radio and don't see the video on TV.

"Fix You" is probably done, finally.

My debuts blast onto the chart, especially uh, Shinedown. It's unescapable, and they may like their rock 'n' roll more than they understand it, but the song rocks, frankly. Over long enough time, I eventually get worn down on almost every slowburning post-grunge hit. You all get at least one, guys. This is theirs.

New bright lights of hope for urban music to finally offset the recent onslaught of s***, at least somewhat, are the new tunes from Mary & Busta. More, please.

Finally, I listened to Get Behind Me Satan for the first time the day after Christmas and had to skim through it again to make sure I wouldn't be low-balling it as I made my '05 albums chart this past week, so that explains "Blue Orchid," which will be the lone representative from the record to make my chart, in what will surely be its first and last week on.

Who the hell are Bring Back the Guns?

[halo19]

They're a band from Texas, one that I saw on last Friday. I don't know if they're really signed or not, but I did end up buying their album. And kind of wanted to put something new on there for a change.
