Is "On the Verge" a new term for the "Subway Fresh Buzz" song of the week? If so, it's an improvement, without the obvious sponsor/product placement.

Now we have the first new #1 of 2012, and judging from the Mediabase daily listings we may have some close and hard to predict battles for the top spot for the next couple of weeks. (I think "Set Fire to the Rain" will be there by the end of the month.) As I thought last week, "Blackout" moves back up.

They've been using the term for several weeks, now. Figured I'd, finally, start acknowledging it.

The order of operations seems to be; (1) the first week a new song gets played, it's a "Breakout"; (2) the next week, if it hasn't debuted, it's "On The Verge".

"On the verge" is not technically the Fresh Buzz song since it WAS the fresh buzz song last week. The breakout singles are usually played 2 weeks in a row, the 1st week its the Fresh Buzz song, then it becomes and "on the verge" song. Which basically means it may make the show, it may not.

^ Very nice work! You'd make a great statistician for the show.

There are also at least 2 unofficial contestants who didn't make it to the judges round, including Colbie Caillat and (as Ryan mentioned a couple weeks ago) Hilary Scott from Lady Antebellum.

Pardon my ignorance on this matter, but what chart is this based on? Why is "I Wanna Go" still charting? I know these countdown shows run a few weeks behind real-time charts, but that track dropped off top 40 long ago, no?

The most celebrated and important female artist of the last half-century. The world has been "hung up" on her since she announced to Dick Clark in 1984 that she wanted to rule the world. And RULE it she has...

This chart is based on data from Mediabase monitored AT40 affiliates. Unlike the published Mediabase pop chart, AT40 has no recurrent rules; hence, the presence of "I Wanna Go" and several other older songs that have already fallen of the published chart. Here's last week's pop chart with recurrents:

pulsemusic.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=pop&action=display&thread=113544

"I Wanna Go" is still there.

Not quite so slow this week. Katy back up to #2, so hopefully she'll get a week at no. 1 on AT40.
The whole top 10 on the move, except for number 4. The Subway song was back this week. The only breakouts were the ones that you treat with ProActiv.
Apparently the on the verge song has it's own "spot" after #31, this week and last, and Ryan said something about its "spot." The show bombarded us with announcements about Madonna, but failed to play her new single.
We're back up to 9 extras including the optionals.
Wow, 15 of those 41 Idol songs are by Kelly, and 8 more by Daughtry. She has more than a third, and together they have more than half.
They played 4 "night time" songs in a row, starting with #28.

Meanwhile, Spyder Harrison's Sirius Hits 1 Weekend Countdown played a sample of Madonna's new single, not once, not twice but three times!!!!

Also, Nick Cannon said several times on Cannon's Countdown he was live at the Super Bowl which is no lies as I saw him several times during the Pre-Game show.
