LOL @ Pitbull ranking over "Home" and "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams", both of which spent multiple weeks at #1.

Yes, indeed, this is the Pop version of the list with a few Hot AC songs.

I don't believe there is any "order" to this chart. In other words he is just playing songs randomly. Hence, Pitbull over those aforementioned songs. However, Pitbull even being on this list is a complete joke!

Did "How You Remind Me" hit #1 on the Hot AC chart? I remember it peaking at #2 on AT20, but maybe Rick's chart was different.

Pitbull song was inside Top 50 of Hot AC few weeks ago...

But another song I'd like to point out...

"Beautiful" by Akon?

Yup. Another example of why this chart is rubbish!

Oh man! I LOVE "I Know You Want Me"! It's a summer JAM!

The thing is this wasn't a Hot AC hit here, let alone a #1 Hot AC hit. That's more of the problem I had with this being on this chart.

Of, of course it wasn't. That's one of the things I love about the Rick Dees show, though. He doesn't give a crap about chart position. Or format, for that matter.

That's true. That is what radio needs to do more of, add more variety to their music like your station does.

Oh, I went by what was posted on their website under the Hot Adult section. I guess they goofed. :)
