Listening now... it will be interesting to see when/where Lady Gaga's new hit debuts. After all, we know exactly when it went to radio.

The Sugarland tune is nice... Rick neglected to mention that lead singer Jennifer Nettles helped out Bon Jovi on "Who Says You Can't Go Home".

I'm glad to see Sugarland debut on here as well. I don't know if they will have a huge run here, but hopefully they will be around for a little while at least.

And even your new Far East Movement song is making an appearance here! As I stated on an earlier thread, this is one of their songs I can live with on this format.
