Madonna already? Nice!

And it's Sorry For Party Rocking, no "The" in it. :)

[HolidayGuy]

Cool- some extra play for GMAYL to soften the decline.

I'm so glad it wasn't The "#1" That Got Away. Congrats again to Katy.
#24, 28 are going to be around a long time still, I bet. But 5 O'Clock continues to drop like a rock.
Stronger reminds me a lot of Christina's Fighter.
Co-writer of Disaster left a voice mail for the song, but Ryan refused to count his "vote" for the song. So ridiculous.
Such uneven break times, esp. in the third hour. 5 songs, 3 songs, then 4 songs.
There are 2 rain songs in the top 5. Ryan mentioned Etta James sample in Good Feeling.

It's not like votes change anything on AT40. The only influence they might have is for a song to break into the chart a week earlier than normal if it gets enough votes. Otherwise, doesn't change a thing on a song's position, it's all mediabase

[HolidayGuy]

So, AT40 as it stands combines Mediabase info and votes?

[richie]

They just pretend to use "votes", as far as we on this board can tell.

[HolidayGuy]

Ah, how we long for the good ol' days, when it didn't pretend to use anything other than official, actual airplay- and when Casey Kasem was host. :)

I think it's good that they're teasing stats. That's the best part of the show.
