-"Alice," by Avril Lavigne was played in low rotation from March 8th to June 2nd and didn't chart on the weekly Top 30 Countdown, yet according to Radio Disney is their 47th most requested song of the year (what the hell?)
-Last year's two holdovers are "I Gotta Feeling" and "Fireflies" that came in at #9 and #11 respectively.
-The seventh most played song of the year, "Party Up" accredited to Brandon Mychal Smith was played 1344 times in 2010 yet was not one of their Top 50 in requests according to Radio Disney (See post #1 on this thread)

I don't know if they rig the weekly Top 30 or year-end Top 50 but they clearly don't correalate, and certainly not the MediaBase list of what they actually played. I've been following this all year and I'm very disappointed. The 2008 and 2009 year-end charts weren't as obviously rigged. The best parts were the DJs talking over the background music of "Only Girl," "What's My Name," and "Please Don't Go." Any questions?

[at40forever]

What a lame chart

[Au$tin]

Wow, that really is rigged!

What an ugly chart. A lot of crappy songs in there. A few good ones, though.

Demi deserved to be higher!

Nice to see Avril on there. Bit of a surprise, though - 'Alice' doesn't seem like the kind of song that most Radio Disney listeners would be interested in.

She has checked herself into a treatment facility where she remains as I type this post.

And, I got what you were trying, but it didn't make too much sense to me.

Yeah, but apparently the song charted because of requests only.

Very glad to see "Love You Like a Love Song" at #1!

[singingsparrow]

I find it fascinating how Demi Lovato is nowhere to be seen on this countdown. I know her present album is nothing particularly special overall worth boasting about, but there's no doubt its lead single, "Skyscraper", really struck a nerve upon its release: making the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100 and also receiving mild-to-moderate Adult Top 40 play.

Even "Skyscraper" is nowhere to be seen. Looks like a snub to me, especially when a far more understated ballad, "Someone Like You", made the fold.

*

I also found it astonishing "Back To December" was Taylor Swift's best-charting year-end track. I find it one of her most ambitious singles to date lyrically. Granted "The Story of Us" wasn't a mainstream hit, but then again about three-fifths of the tracks on the countdown aren't either, and the latter just strikes me as that type of song most likely to resonate to Radio Disney's core audience, which is made up of suburban family households, especially pre-adolescents of both genders (teenage girls more, but pre-teenage boys make up a sizable chunk too) and their mothers who desire a "safer" alternative to Mainstream Top 40.

Then again, I don't listen to Radio Disney habitually and only tune in briefly time to time out of curiosity, so shows what I know.

Namaste,

Yeah Disney isnt backing Demi much this era, i suspect it has something to do with her quitting her TV show, it couldve pissed off the execs at Disney. im not sure though, they just didnt seem to do much for Demi this time around.
