CHART NOTES For October 6, 2013
Capital Cities remain "Safe and Sound" for the 2nd week in a row at #1 with their debut single... "Safe and Sound"!
Knocking on the door to #1 we find Avicii at #2 with "Wake Me Up" and Lana Del Rey at #3 with "Summertime Sadness". Both songs move up 2 points from their respective positions of #4 and #5 from last week.
Only one song moves into the top 10 this week. We find HAIM at #10 up from #11 with their debut single "The Wire". The track was pushed as a free iTunes download a few weeks ago. It is good to see some of those free iTunes tracks become hits. Several hit it big over the years including "Bulletproof" by La Roux in 2009, "Change" by Churchill and "Pompeii" by Bastille from earlier this year.
New tracks making their chart entries include "Royals" by Lorde at #19. This song is already a big hit on many other charts. Paul McCartney's latest entitled "New" also debuts on the Weekly Top 20 at #20.

CHART NOTES
Capital Cities bumps Katy Perry's "Roar" out of the #1 slot with their single "Safe and Sound". The track is a latecomer to the Weekly Top 20 and has spent several weeks on the chart before peaking with this edition at #1. Good for them. "Roar" slips one to #2.
Elton John probably has one of his biggest hits (at least for this chart) so far this century with "Home Again" moving up another point to #3. It is quite like his earlier work from the 1970s where his vocals and keyboards are front and center. His new album The Diving Board just came out this week.
New in the top 5 are Avicii with their hit "Wake Me Up" at #4 up from #6, and Lana Del Ray's "Summertime Sadness" at #5 up from #9.
Song debuts of the week: "The Mother We Share" by Chvrches at #19 and "Got a Feeling" by Los Waves at #20. We'll see how high these new entries go in the coming weeks.
