This week we have a brand new
#1 song. It's
DIAMANTE moving up two notches with
"When I'm Not Around". This is also a big week for Diamante as she scores another song in the top 50 titled
"Obvious", and she just dropped her new single today titled "
Serves You Right". You can scroll down to My Metal chart to preview that one. Two songs crack the top 10 this week. First is
"Always and Forever" from
Whitesnake and at
#9 slowly , but surely is the latest song from
Ghost titled
"Kiss The Go-Goat". I'm not sure if this one was ever released as a single for mainstream rock, but it's here and it's gonna keep climbing. Finally let's check out this week's debuts. I already mentioned "Obvious", but we also have a brand new Retrowave song from
Betamaxx feat Vandal Moon titled
"Never Sleep Again" If you like your 80's synthpop then this is your jam. With that we reach our highest debut from the sophisti-pop band
Prefab Sprout. I've charted some older songs in the past, but this week we go all the way to
1988 for the much underrated
"The King of Rock 'N" Roll". I think it will finally get the chart action it deserves on my top 50. The rest of the chart brings on the fierce moves from
The Strokes, Edge Of Paradise ,and
The Killers who leap up 11 slots on my chart with their new
#1 song on Alternative music airwaves
"Caution". More vids and sleeve art including new stuff I worked on this week will round out this week's chart highlights.
Red =debuts.
Purple = significant chart moves, and this
() means songs highest peak to date.

Pet Shop Boys. Last year I charted
"What Are We Going To Do About The Rich" . That one had a sorta Beatles-esque vibe except with dance music elements, but their latest single
"Monkey Business" goes straight out 70's meets 90's Disco. Even the song's music video screams of
Studio 54 memories. I'm figuring this one will take off nicely once it debuts on my chart. My second add is from a band that's been absent from my charts since way back when they released
"Always Love". That was a
#1 hit on my chart. This latest single has that melody in mind , and it's that melody that gives it a quick push into my add list. Say hello to
"So Much Love" from
Nada Surf. Spanish singer
Cristina Quesada proved to have a winning sound for my chart with her ode to the
SAW sound of the 80's, so I'm bringing her back with another SAW styled song
"Love At Third Sight". My last add is a song I'm bringing back for two reasons. One. I finally acquired a great sounding mp3 file ,but the main reason is this thrilling new music video they released for the song. It follows the same tongue n cheek horror spoof idea you see in a lot of
Ghost videos except this time with werewolf women. I already took top 30 this year so let's see if
"Loba" from
Victimas Del Doctor Cerebro can outpeak it's own peak the second time around?

New Metal Music Chart: We have one debut this week, but it's a big one. First we say goodbye to
"Obvious" who jumps into the week's top 50 most popular songs, but at the same time we say hello to
DIAMANTE's brand new single titled
"Serves You Right". It's another
"you screwed up so it's your loss" type of lyrics song. I love those powerful angry type jams and DIAMANTE has the perfect vocals to deliver those lyrics with conviction. It isn't strong enough to knock
"Zombie King" from
#1, but it get a strong top 5 debut in its first week on the chart. Another big mover this week is
"Flowers On A Grave" from
Bush so keep your ear out for that one. It's also a strong enough song to cruise into the top 60 in the week's to come.
Scott Stapp also goes top 5 with
"Survivor" which means we are getting some strong competition for that #1 position on my Metal chart.
