Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 Hot AC 3/17/12

[musicfanpete]

Sorry for the delay in posting. Been busy today. Better late than ever. :)

Kelly Clarkson takes over the top of Rick's chart this week with "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)". This should remain parked at the top for awhile.

While Adele falls out of the top spot, she's posed for her fourth number one hit as her latest hit "Rumor Has It" rockets up 15 spots from #40 to #25 with the second highest jumping song of the year.

John Mayer returns to the chart with his latest hit "Shadow Day", while the Script and newcomers Fun f/Janelle Monae also debut this week, the later group with their quirky sounding debut hit "We Are Young".

I'm guessing Flo isn't coming back, at least not with "Shake It Out". Stranger things have happened, though.

Yeah, interesting that Rick or someone there decided to dump this song as early as they did. Currently "Shake It Out" is down from #21 to #29 on the Mediabase Hot AC chart with a loss of over 200 spins this week. So yes, I don't think it's coming back on Rick's chart, and in a way I'm glad it did not. It would just seem strange if it did.

They also have to decide what will happen with "Sexy And I Know It" as it regained a small bullet at #30 on Mediabase this week. I can see it sitting near the bottom of Rick's chart for a few more weeks, if not reversing back up a bit.

The Bonus Tracks are now up. Better late than ever.
