Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 Hot AC 7/2/11

[musicfanpete]

What?! No "special" summer countdown this July 4th weekend? Well that's a good thing as Rick does give us a new weekly chart this year, and at least for this week I will not have to search for last year's "best of" summer chart.

This week brings us a new number one song as Maroon5 takes over the top for yet another number one song to add to their resume with "Never Gonna Leave This Bed". After three weeks at the top, Katy Perry takes a big tumble down to #7 with "E.T.". But not all is bad for her this week as her latest soon to be smash, "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" debuts at #36, and is sure to take a big leap up the chart next week.

Also debuting this week is the first hit in awhile for Three Days Grace as they debut at #32 with "Lost In You". David Cook returns with his newest hit in a couple of years with "The Last Goodbye", this week's Sure Shot.

And hot new tracks by Steven Tyler and The Band Perry tie for the biggest jumper of the week, both up 7 spots respectively.
