"Animal" is a huge hit on Mel's Weekly Top 20. The debut single from Neon Trees holds on to the #1 spot for the 4th week in a row. Other than "Need You Now" by Lady Antebellum and "Bad Romance" by Lady Ga Ga from earlier this year, this record is the only one to hold the top spot for 4 weeks. Will it be around for a 5th?

Jaron and The Long Road to Love have a big hit on their hands with "Pray For You". The song has been inching its way up the top 5 for weeks now, this week settling in at #2 up from #3 of last week. Nikki Yanofsky's "Cool My Heels" slips a point from #2 to #3. Katy Perry moves into the top 5 to claim the #4 spot with her hit "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dog), up form #6 while Barenaked Ladies hold at #5 for the 3rd week in a row with "Every Subway Car."

Sharkira's "Waka Waka" song moves from #10 to #7 this week. La Roux moves up 2 form #13 to #11 with "Bulletproof," Caro Emerald close behind with "A Night Like This" up form #14 to #12 while her former number 1 hit "Back it Up" drops 2 from #8 to #10. She has a new video for "Back it Up" (see video above).

Two songs debut this week: "My First Kiss" featuring Kesha by 3OH3 comes in at #18, and "Like We Used To" by A Rocket to the Moon comes in at #20. Both songs are popular on the alt rock charts.
