Well this week we have another random list of requests as Rick airs his "all request special" as part of his two week summer break. Once again this "countdown" is just a list of random requests by listeners (some of which he puts on the air), with no real ranking outside of the number one most requested song which this year goes to Timbaland and OneRepublic with "Apologize". Like last week, the numbers have been assigned randomly as they appear on his website.
One song I'm sure Hedley fans will like is "Perfect" which he plays sometime during the second hour of his show ("ranked" #30). It's a pretty good list of songs with a good mix of big Hot AC and CHR hits, and one song that has not charted on his Hot AC countdown yet but is already pushing towards the top 20 of the Mediabase Hot AC chart, and may show up next week. That would be Pitbull and Ne-Yo's former number one CHR hit "Give Me Everything", a song that has definitely angered many Hot AC fans as to whether this should even be played on Hot AC radio!
Speaking of next week, hopefully we will resume with the regular weekly charts, which should be interesting to watch as the next two weeks should be very active as Rick plays catch-up to the Mediabase Hot AC chart. Look for big moves by Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" and Coldplay's "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall".
