Dan's Notes

*This week on AT40 Extras - ALL the songs you thought you'd never have to hear again!

*This week's artist we apparently don't like: Kely Clarkson, who saw two songs have verses cut out of 'em.

*Seriously... we're lookin' at, like, 3 months at #1 for Rob Thomas! Can we get something else up there already!

*God, that Train song is aweful. And here I was thinking that I wouldn't hear from them until a new album...

*On the topic of old albums, isn't that Keith Urban song from his "Golden Road" album? And wasn't that released 3 years ago?

[mst3k]

I get to say it first this week: Still no Def Leppard?

[Johnser]

Maybe once the two ancient songs at the end of the countdown leave.

Yup, Train's song is from "My Private Nation."

And yeah, that Keith Urban song is from a really old album. Casey mentioned that awhile back on AT10.

Thanks again for the posting the chart. AT40-Hot AC doesn't air where I live but it's still fun to see what's going on.

Here's something I've noticed:

This is the first time on either version of AT40 where the #1 song differs from the R&R chart. On R&R, Lifehouse took over, keeping Rob at 10 weeks on top.

[Ragin]

Okay, on the Def Leppard thing... Keane was BEHIND them two weeks ago, so how on earth is that justified? Seems to me to be a prejudicial matter.

I would guess this works the same way as AT40 Pop, where positions are determined by affiliate airplay. Either way, this isn't nearly as egregious as the "My Happy Ending" omission of '04.

Theyre prbably hoping it will fade before they haft to put on countdown but i got news for them, if this doesn't go Top 20 it's gonna hang around the 21-29 zone for a long time so sooner or later they are gonna haft to DEAL with this Def Leppard comeback!!!! :)

[Johnser]

Amen! Something tells me that they don't WANT to put a band whose biggest hits were in the 80's on a chart in 2005. I could be wrong though. At least they DID play it as an "Out of the Box" though. "My Happy Ending" wasn't even mentioned till they had to put it on the countdown.

I'd argue that... I mean, look at all the love that damn Duran Duran song got... "What Happens Tomorrow." And it wasn't even very good!

Given, Def Leppard's track ain't all that good either, but I guess if you're to support one form of crap originally from the 80s, you gotta share the love!

Hopefully, "Behind These Hazel Eyes" won't reach #1 either. I would hate for Kelly Clarkson to destroy my favorite format.

This is my favorite format too, but I fail to see how Kelly Clarkson, clearly a gifted vocalist could possibly destroy the format. she was made for HotAC. Hillary Duff, yes, Lindsey Lohan, yes, The Pussycat Dolls, yes, Kelly, no.
