On what is the final weekly chart of the year, "Just The Way You Are" by Bruno Mars holds onto the number one spot for the second week in a row. Even more significant though, "Breakeven" by the Script finally drops off the chart after 60 weeks on, just one week shy of the record. They make up for it though by earning this week's highest jumper as their follow up "For The First Time" jumps up from #30 to #22.
The previous two Sure Shots by Mike Posner and Lee DeWyze debut this week, while the week's highest debut goes to an artist that has had numerous hits north of the border in Canada. Hedley finally breaks through in the U.S. with their first hit here, "Perfect".
As I previously mentioned, I just confirmed that this is the final weekly chart of 2010, which means it will probably be at least three weeks before the next weekly chart is released. Rick did confirm at the end of his show that next week will be the top 40 hits of the year, which means no top 100 for the second year in a row. However, I have compiled a yearly chart based his weekly charts using the simple inverse point method, but I will wait for Rick to release his year-end chart first before I post mine, probably at the end of next weekend.
He then made mention of a "holiday special" countdown after that, so we'll see if it's that top 100 decade countdown that he is asking people to vote for on his website. I believe he only did a top 40 decade countdown last year, so if this one is based on listener votes, that should make it a lot more interesting!

I'm confused...Rick did a Top Decade countdown last year... Yeah, I was too, but I believe last year's countdown was just a top 40 decade "dartboard" countdown, while this year's would be a top 100 decade countdown based on listener and online votes. If this is indeed what will be aired after next week's year-end top 40, then it should be interesting if indeed it is entirely based on votes. It should be interesting if it is since any song over the last decade could possibly make the chart while having nothing to do with the actual number of times it got played. FYI, I just updated my original post with the latest information along with this week's Bonus Tracks. |

I went to the polling site...looks to be another dartboard countdown show because "What do you Want From Me" is leading all other songs by 1,000 votes....what a joke...

^Yeah those 7 songs didn't chart at all on Hot AC or CHR (the two versions of his countdown), and I think some weren't even singles - I should go online and vote for I Dream A Dream by Susan Boyle, just cause I wanna hear it on Rick's countdown |

I doubt that will happen though. |

Some songs that will in all likelihood appear, whether we like it or not:
Here Without You
This Love
The Reason
Far Away
Hey Soul Sister
Second Chance
Love Song
Sober
Breakaway
Black Horse & The Cherry Tree
Bubbly
How To Save A Life
If any of the above don't appear, I'd be shocked.

I'm sure the decade shows were recorded weeks ago so the staff could have some time off. It's unlikely that the poll results will have any effect on what we'll be hearing.

Don't understand why he's doing a Top Songs Of The Decade show now - it's like doing a Top Songs Of The 70s show at the end of 1980
