CHART NOTES:

Nikki Yanofsky holds at #1 for the 3rd consecutive week with "Cool My Heels". 3OH!3 featuring Kesha jumps four points from #6 last week to #2 with "My First Kiss." The track has topped the alternative rock chart on iTunes for several weeks and it looks like it may go to #1 on this chart soon.

Comeback resilience: La Roux is at #3 up from #4 with "Bulletproof". The synthesized dance track topped this chart late last year and made a return to the chart earlier this summer. This certainly is a very popular song!

Scissor Sisters enter the top 10 with "Fire With Fire" at #10 up from #13. Maroon 5 sits at #8 this week with "Misery", up 2 from #10.

Debuts include "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz at #19 and "Uh Oh" by Kyrah at #20.

19	Drummer Boy	Debi Nova	--
20	Come Over Love	Anuhea	--

CHART NOTES:

Nikki Yanofsky tops the chart for a second consecutive week with her single "Cool My Heels". It's a great AC/jazz track. Should be #1 on everyone's chart.

"My First Kiss" by 3OH!3 moves from #10 to #6. Definitely will be a top 5 hit. Number 1?

Fast mover: "Misery" by Maroon 5. Up 8 points from #18 to #10 in only the track's second week. I don't really care for the track's mildly violent video.

Three songs debut: At #18 is the latest hit by Carrie Underwood, "Undo It". Debi Nova's "Drummer Boy" comes in at #19; and all the way from Hawaii, it's Anuhea with her latest single "Come Over Love" at #20.

Like old music? Got several audio channel tracks at the new Super Oldies Page.

CHART NOTES:

Nikki Yanofsky tops the chart this week with her single "Cool My Heels". The young singer is popular in Canada. This song should be getting more airplay in the U.S. Fits perfectly on a soft AC / light rock format.

Katy Perry's "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dog) moves up 1 from #3 to #2 this week. Could number 1 not be too far away? The song tops many other charts.

Two records make their debut on the top 20. They are "Misery" by Maroon 5 at #18 and "Jar of Hearts" at #19 by Christina Perri "Misery" is this week's featured video clip.

CHART NOTES:

"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.
