AT40 (HOT AC) – JULY 17-18, 2010

Neither AT40 or Rick Dees have "Misery" by Maroon 5 on the radar this week, which is kind of surprising. If that's the case, there's no ruling out the possibility of a huge entry for the song next weekend - probably the higest entry for this year.

Also a bit of a surprise: "Breakeven" at #1 for an 8th week. I was pretty sure that "California Gurls" would have taken over the top spot.

I'm starting to think that after "I'm Yours", "Use Somebody" will be the next song trying to set a record for the longest run on the chart, and I wouldn't rule out "Hey, Soul Sister" either.

Only one new entry to speak of this week as Kris Allen now has two songs on this week's chart with "The Truth" debuting at #36. It features Pat Monahan who now has three songs on the chart, the other two being with his band Train.

Ryan's back from a one-week hiatus, with only a couple of guest interviews replayed from recent months.

Wow! Almost like an "old school" chart this week with two big droppers! It brings back memories of Casey's faster moving charts in the 80's.

I appreciate your posting after the disappointment of my local station playing last week's with George Lopez again, but at least there wasn't a Christmas song as an extra. I think it's the last week for "Breakeven" at #1, so how funny that it's the third #1 in a row to last eight weeks.
