Top 10? Boring, let's move on.
The bottom clears itself out with 4 debuts and a re-entry this week! Kid Rock leads the way at #26 with his 4th AC hit "Born Free." In its debut, the song ties the peak of his previous hit "Collide" which also got to #26 back in June.
Josh Gracin returns to the chart after a 1-week absence at #27 with "Long Way to Go." The song also acquires a new peak in its return.
The second debut comes from one of the kings of AC, mister Barry Manilow. The 68-year old singer is back with his first original song to hit the chart in over a decade. "Bring On Tomorrow" is Barry's 42nd top 30 hit. He last charted in 2008 with the Christmas song "Christmas is Just Around the Corner" peaking at #16. Before that, he peaked at #20 back in 2006 with a cover of the Righteous Brothers' "Unchained Melody." More on him later.
Debut #3 this week is another pop/rock crossover from Hot Chelle Rae. Their top 10 hit enters AC at #29 giving the band their first AC hit.
Closing out the chart at #30 is the return of Coldplay. "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" gives the British band their 4th AC hit. They reached #28 back in January with their Christmas song "Christmas Lights." Before that, they had a #1 smash "Viva La Vida" which first topped the chart in February 2009.
With all the action on the bottom this week, can we see some new AC hits on the horizon?
