The show was late in terms of finishing so that's why it took until after Midnight to post the playlist. Enjoy.

DROPPER:
OneRepublic - Counting Stars (from #38, 35 weeks on)

- "Team" may not have topped AT40 but it is now the oldest record on the countdown with "Counting Stars" falling off.

I see that Ariana Grande got screwed out of spending a second week at #1. At least the chart looks caught up, which is a good thing.

Like the Maroon 5 Two For One choice. "Never Gonna Leave This Bed" should have been a smash hit on CHR.

Kind of a slow week. Not totally unexpected, though, with all the movement we saw last week.

The chart was caught up last week (effectively, skipping Ariana's first week on top). If that held, I anticipated Nico and Vinz would take the top, this week.

Not too stagnant, though, as only five songs stay in the same place as last week, though there's only one debut and nothing moves up more than 6 or down more than 7. Last week Ryan gave us a little too much information about the chart movement at the start of the show IMO, telling us early on that there was a new #1 and #2.

^That happens all the time on Rick Dees show. Casey used to do it too, especially during the early years of AT40.

- Echosmith is a Breakout again? Odd.

The cuesheets must've been wrong because Ryan definitely said it was on the verge this week. They're also wrong if they said Miley Cyrus is featured on "Come Get It Bae." She does backup vocals but doesn't get label credit and that song shouldn't be added to her total:

Oh so I've been avoiding this song for nothing?

It really bugs me when labels or stations do this. This was also the case with Vanessa Carlton on Counting Crows' "Big Yellow Taxi," and Taylor Swift on John Mayer's "Half of My Heart." The worst part, to me, is it makes it look like he's riding Miss Cyrus's coattails to push this further up the charts. Considering he's coming off the biggest hit of his career, and his overall reputation for making hits over the last 10 or 12 years, this should not be necessary.
