Two acts make their debuts in the AT40 for the first time this weekend: Owl City with one of this fall's sleeper hits "Fireflies" and last week's breakout from Green River Ordinance, "Come On".
This week's breakouts include "Breakeven" and "Paparazzi", although I think the latter could have just easily entered the chart instead of wasting a week being featured as a breakout. Since "Poker Face" dropped out, Lady GaGa could have easily replaced that with one of her latest singles.
I expect that for next weekend's chart, that song will have a high debut. Another song like "All The Right Moves" or "If You Only Knew" could have been used as a breakout, but then again, maybe next week.
John Mayer is certainly making his presence felt with "Who Says", which has the biggest move in only its second week on the chart, while "Battlefield" is pretty much surrendering its run on the chart, taking the biggest drop and likely marking its final week on the AT40.
"Use Somebody" has now tied "Second Chance" for 8 weeks at #1.
Looking at this latest group of recurrent songs, it looks like some of these are seriously giving previous ones a run for chart longevity. "I'm Yours" will easily reach 80+ weeks considering how it continues to chart inside or close to the Top 20, while "Viva La Vida" has gone past 70 weeks and "Shattered" is getting close to that mark.
At this rate, "I'm Yours" is easily on pace to break the records set by "Paralyzer" (88 weeks), "Bubbly" (87) and perhaps "You & Me" (95). I wouldn't rule out its possibility of passing the 103 weeks set by "Love Song". As for "Viva", it is on pace to pass the run of 78 weeks set by "Over My Head". "Shattered" is on pace to have 70-75 weeks on this chart. Something's got to give, sooner or later. This is beginning to look like the Olympics, where new records are being set every time, smashing older ones in the process.
