Yes. Recurrent rules are reinstated this week.

"Some Nights," "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," and "50 Ways to Say Goodbye" will go recurrent tonight.

"Ready or Not" would come in at #40, potentially saving it from being purged, but it's possible Mediabase will go ahead and remove it, especially with it being the first chart of the year they might want to make everything look "fresh." Which could spell purge danger for "Anything Could Happen" as well, even though it will be sitting at #37 after recurrents are removed. "Oath" will definitely be purged.

There are probably some other songs that fell below the top 50 between the two weeks that will be purged as well.

Bee tee dubs:
The January Meltdown is starting. Biggest update of the day goes to "I Knew You Were Trouble." which gained 374 spins today. Other big updates today included "Ho Hey" (+260), "Beauty and a Beat" (+222), "Don't You Worry Child" (+227), and "C'Mon" (+256).

I know. That is horrible. >:(

[Au$tin]

Part of that has to do with the year-end charts. "One More Night" is going to be on a lot more year-end charts than "Die Young." Not to mention "Die Young" was killed off faster due to the shooting.

I think it's a new movement we're gonna see in 2013. I see alternative crossovers becoming much more abundant. It's about time M&S get some love here since The Lumineers, Imagine Dragons, Alex Clare, and Grouplove all have. Alabama Shakes is next.

[Devin]

^ I would consider "Anything Could Happen" a straight-up pop song.

[bluestar4]

"Home" is straight-up pop as well.

Makes me wonder if we can get some Green Day and Black Keys on Pop as well. Although, I have a feeling eventually the alt and pop charts will be almost the same with all these crossovers.

[kamikazeheart]

It's pop, but they're far from the kind of songs that typically have smashed on CHR the last couple of years.

Technically it should, but Mediabase might wipe it out because it is a recurrent grouped with "We Are Never..." and "50 Ways to Say Goodbye."

I love that there are so many alternative crossovers right now. Great songs and give the chart some variety in sounds and lyrics (i like pop songs about parties but i don't need 40 songs about the same).

And if Merry go round could crossover from country and Thinking bout you from Urban, the chart would be amazing

[Au$tin]

"Merry Go 'Round" needs to freaking smash on every possibly format it could chart in! Hot AC, AC, Pop, Country, and Alternative! I have a feeling it's going to be a big hit. Country's just the beginning for it.

"Merry Go 'Round" has virtually zero chance of becoming a crossover hit! ;)

If any Country artist is likely to break out with a mainstream hit in the months ahead, it'll probably be Luke Bryan.

False. It's increased on country radio at an incredibly fast rate. For any song in general! Not to mention that it's by a female AND it's a female's debut single. The song has well over 1,000 weekly listeners on Last.fm, which is pretty high for a country song. Let alone for one from a debut artist who just reached the top 20 on country. It's been in the mid 80 to lower 90 range on iTunes for quite a while now, even through the Christmas Rush! The song has quite a lot of hype building around it in the music industry. It's got a dark alt-country sound with pop influences. There is no doubt in my mind that it will at least reach the top 50 on pop. With an adds date it'll get even higher!

[beachboi69]

When is the last time someone had two singles in the top 25.

Reminds me of the Gaga days.

"Die Young: below "One More Night" makes me ill. However C'mon is 24 and exploding so there is nothing to worry about for the pop princess.

+256 thats a sexy mess..before a radio add date.

So, by that logic, Jana Kramer's "Why Ya Wanna" at least SHOULD have at least reached the Top 50 on this format because it is from a female artist AND is her debut single? Or Ashley Monroe's debut solo single "Like a Rose"? Or Lindi Ortega's debut effort? ;)

With respect, that doesn't make any sense. If that were true, EVERY female country artist would have impacted the Top Fifty of this chart, and it would be one incessantly swinging door that dismisses one artist as rapidly as it welcomes another.

Look, you won't find me complaining if this, miraculously beyond my most over-the-top imagination, does crossover. In fact, I'll be rejoicing. But this is simply not going to happen! ;)

Like it or not, tempo is pretty much a prerequisite for Mainstream Top 40 airplay. "Merry Go 'Round" flourishes thanks to Musgraves' vocals, an understated production and the biting, realistic lyrics, but it is not going to satisfy that tempo prerequisite.

Most importantly, though, the lyrics will be too much for many listeners to handle. I can see it now: mall rats putting their hands in the air and waving cell phones to the declaration of: "If you ain't got two kids by 21, You're probably gonna die alone." ;)

No, the subject matter is too macabre and jaded for Mainstream Top 40 sensibilities. I know some will feel tempted to immediately point out "Pumped Up Kicks" in response. Except that actually had a tempo and, according to many listeners, you can't understand a single word their frontman is singing! ;)

*

So let me take this moment to repeat: Merry Go 'Round has virtually zero chance of becoming a crossover hit! ;)

Namaste,
Noah Hibiscus Eaton

The song has well over 1,000 weekly listeners on Last.fm, which is pretty high for a country song. Let alone for one from a debut artist who just reached the top 20 on country. It's been in the mid 80 to lower 90 range on iTunes for quite a while now, even through the Christmas Rush! The song has quite a lot of hype building around it in the music industry. It's got a dark alt-country sound with pop influences. There is no doubt in my mind that it will at least reach the top 50 on pop. With an adds date it'll get even higher!

So, by that logic, Jana Kramer's "Why Ya Wanna" at least SHOULD have at least reached the Top 50 on this format because it is from a female artist AND is her debut single? Or Ashley Monroe's debut solo single "Like a Rose"? Or Lindi Ortega's debut effort? ;)

My logic is that it rose at a fast speed in a climate where songs like it would climb slowly. "Why Ya Wanna" took FOREVER to get to its peak. So, I'm not sure what you're trying to get at.

Look, you won't find me complaining if this, miraculously beyond my most over-the-top imagination, does crossover. In fact, I'll be rejoicing. But this is simply not going to happen! ;)

It's not over-the-top for the reasons I already stated, though.

Like it or not, tempo is pretty much a prerequisite for Mainstream Top 40 airplay. "Merry Go 'Round" flourishes thanks to Musgraves' vocals, an understated production and the biting, realistic lyrics, but it is not going to satisfy that tempo prerequisite.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
Tell them all I know now, shout it from the rooftop
You are the only exception
There's always gonna be another mountain
Falling from cloud nine
;)

Most importantly, though, the lyrics will be too much for many listeners to handle. I can see it now: mall rats putting their hands in the air and waving cell phones to the declaration of: "If you ain't got two kids by 21, You're probably gonna die alone." ;)

But the song goes against that line. It's basically a big satire on the ideals of the 50s. I'll admit, it's not the party and get drunk lines clotting up the chart, but if people can get into Adele, Gotye, fun., Imagine Dragons, Of Monsters and Men, and Mumford & Sons, I don't see any reason this song can't get love lyrically.

So let me take this moment to repeat: Merry Go 'Round has virtually zero chance of becoming a crossover hit! ;)

Agree to disagree, I guess, but I think you're 100% wrong. ;)

Peace out,

So?

Gretchen Wilson's debut single "Redneck Woman" ascended even faster out of the gate upon its release to the top of the Country songs chart in 2004. Yet, I certainly don't see the fact it didn't take its sweet time moving up the chart guarantee it any mainstream airplay.

Fair enough!

Care to explain to me, then, why Miranda Lambert's most fervently-regarded, yet gently understated, ballad "The House That Built Me" didn't become a crossover hit then? ;)

The lyrical content of "Merry Go 'Round" is equally as relevant now, if not even more so, than it would have been in light of the late Victorian Age.

You choose interesting artists to reinforce your argument on what can be embraced lyrically at this format. Adele, as much as I love her, is hardly a departure from the tried-and-true themes of romantic love and the tragedy of heartbreak. Gotye's hit was essentially just another over-the-top, whiny breakup song, perhaps made slightly more interesting than the rest of the crop because of Kimbra representing the standpoint of the female in the relationship briefly. I love "Some Nights", but "We Are Young" was just another "Let's party and set the night on fire!" kind of song topically-speaking. And so forth.

Hardly a lyrical revolution there! ;)
