CHART NOTES:


Caro Emerald tops the chart for a 3rd week with her latest single "Tangled Up". The song is from the forthcoming album The Incredible Miss Emerald. Will Miss Emerald manage to hold off the hot competition just below her top spot another week?

Pink moves up from #6 of last week to #3 with "Just Give Me a Reason" which also feature's Fun's Nate Ruess. Will Pink be able to go to #1 next week? Probably not. Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" leaps from last week's debut position of #19 to slam into the Top 5 at #5. Two weeks, and already in the top 5. Does the song have the momentum to jump to #1 next week?

Elsewhere in the top 5, we see Bruno Mars holding at #2 again with "When I Was Your Man". This is the 3rd week @ #2 for Mars, who held the #1 spot with this song 3 weeks ago. Moving up one point from #5 to #4 we find Bon Jovi and their latest hit, "Because We Can".

Dropping out of the top 5 from last week is Ivan & Alyosha whose "Running For Cover" has apparently peaked at #3. They're at #6 this week. Right ahead of them, dropping 3 is Mariah Careywho was at #4 with "Almost Home". She is now at #7. Holding at #8 for a 2nd week is Churchill and their former #1 track "Change".

New in the top 10 is Passenger and their hit "Let Her Go" moving up from #11 to #10.

Only one new single makes a chart debut. That belongs to former Hootie & the Blowfish lead singer Darius Rucker who comes in with "Wagon Wheel" @ #20. The track is one of the top country songs in the U.S. We'll see how it fares on the Weekly Top 20.


Since we did not post the previous top 20 last week, here it is (delayed) for this week.

CHART NOTES:


Caro Emerald tops the chart for a 2nd week with her latest single "Tangled Up". The song is from the forthcoming album The Incredible Miss Emerald which will feature a mix of retro influenced pop music with a tinge of 1940s and 50s Hollywood jazz. Nice stuff. She was recently featured on a BBC 2 radio concert where some tracks from the new album were sung.

Elsewhere in the top 20 we see Pink moving up from #8 of last week to #6 with "Just Give Me a Reason" which also feature's Fun's Nate RuessFun meanwhile moves up 2 from #20 to #18 with their track "Why Am I the One".

Daft Punk featuring Pharrell Williams makes its chart debut at #19 with "Get Lucky". Taylor Swiftplaces a new track in the top 20 as "State of Grace" shows up at #20. Meanwhile her current hit "22" holds at #14 again. Both tracks are off Swift's Red album.
