Fitz & the Tantrums hold on to #1 for a third week with "The Walker" off their latest album More Than A Dream. Katy Perry continues for a 3rd week at #2 with "Unconditionally".

Kelly Clarkson makes a big 6 point jump from #12 to #6 with her latest track, the new yuletide standard "Underneath the Tree". In celebration of the holiday, her music video for this song is at the top of this page.

Luke Bryan is also pushing up to #7 this week with the country rocker "That's My Kind of Night" up 3 from #10.

Two songs make their chart debut: "Who You Love" featuring Katy Perry by John Mayer debuts at #19. "Shake" an alternative indie track comes in at #20 from The Head and The Heart. Looks like some good songs leading us into 2014.

Speaking of which... this will be the last posted weekly chart of 2013. The next chart will be posted on January 1, 2014 as we begin a new year. Hope you all have a Happy Holiday Season. Be kind to each other. Aloha! Mel
