Adele takes over the top of the chart this week with her second number one song of 2011, "Someone Like You". This has been a breakout year for her, and look for this song to stay at the top for awhile, though newcomers Foster The People will give her a bit of a challange next week.
Not a lot of chart movement this week as no song gains or drops more than 5 spots, with one exception. Nickelback has the week's biggest jumper with their latest hit, "When We Stand Together", up 7 spots to #16.
Duran Duran makes another attempt at recapturing their chart dominance of the 80's and early 90's with their latest hit, "Leave A Light On", this week's highest debut at #33. Once again, this song sounds like it could have been written and released in the 80's, and has already outcharted their previous hit from earlier this year, "All You Need Is Now" which peaked at #36.
One trend this year has been the success of dance music at both CHR and Hot AC radio. LMFAO is an example as their latest hit, "Party Rock Anthem" moves up one spot to #14, a song that already hit #1 on the CHR chart earlier this year. And although it appears that Martin Solveig/Dragonette only peaked at #30 for the past two weeks with "Hello", that's still a pretty decent showing on this chart for their worldwide dance hit.
Finally, newcomer Rachel Platten has this week's Sure Shot with "1000 Ships", a song that has a nice refleshing appeal that balances out a lot of the pop crossover music that has been invading the Hot AC format lately. And Rick appears to have a bit of a "crush" on her as he commented on her blonde hair and blue eyes!
