Rick Dees' Year-End Chart

[Cerebro]

The first "half" of Dees' year-end chart is online. Yes, this is Dees. As usual, expect him to be different. Like previous years, he seems to be using a Mediabase chart from a different cut-off date with the recurrents left on (explaining the presence of songs like "Complicated", "Hot In Herre", and "Heaven").

Also "Like I Love You" I think.

[Devil Marlena Nylund]

Justin's was on AT40's too.
I was surprised 'Sk8er Boi' was on AT40's yearend chart. When did that fall off?

[ExActLy99]

I think he missed Simple Plan's "Addicted" because he said that "Perfect" was the first of 2 on the chart, unless "Addicted" managed top 40.

[Rob64]

I have the MP3 of today's show in perfect sound quality if anybody wants it

I believe "Addicted" would be in the Top 40. I don't know what number it is on the R&R year end chart, since I haven't looked at it yet (I want it to be a surprise for when I listen to AT40), but currently, on the Mediabase YTD chart, it's number 34. It seems weird that it would rank so high, since it never hit the Top Ten and, though it did go recurrent, it didn't do so from a super-high position (i.e. right after it fell out of the Top Twenty). It must have stayed around the position from which it went recurrent for a damn long time!
Wayne Wonder is also a song in the Top 40 that didn't make the Top Ten - on the Mediabase update, anyway, and even it might drop out by the end of the year.

OK Whats your screen name?

[Mega248]

Is there a reason why the first "half" of Rick's year-end top 100 has 60 songs?

Unfortunatly, it didn't fall off until January, so it was eligible. :(

[Arson]

I didn't hear the following songs, but more were skipped (I missed a portion of the show).

42. MAGIC STICK/Lil' Kim featuring 50 Cent
44. 21 QUESTIONS/50 Cent
47. MISS YOU/Aaliyah
53. UNDERNEATH IT ALL/No Doubt featuring Lady Saw
62. JENNY FROM THE BLOCK/Jennifer Lopez
65. GOTTA GET THROUGH THIS/Daniel Bedingfield

No doubt, because he had to skip so many songs. He never skips any of the top 40 of the year.

Also, "Just Like A Pill".

I was listening over the weekend, and the station I was listening to missed the #65, #64, #53, and #52 spots. I made estimates as to which songs I missed, and I did get Daniel Bedingfield and 50 Cent in the right area, but I figured "Underneath It All" would be in the top 40, and something like "Stuck" in its place instead.

Based on this chart, I'd say "Perfect" would be #101 on R&R's year end.

[Diablo Cody™]

At least "Me Against The Music" made top 100 on Rick Dees.

With the songs at the top so close together, I think Rick Dees may mess around with it. I think either the Black Eyed Peas or Evanescence will be #1 on Rick Dees.

Yeah, probably Black Eyed Peas, since they were number one on the Mediabase update at the end of the year. "Complicated" was number one on his show last year. Before that, the last time he had a different song at the top of the chart was back in 1998, when "Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia was on top instead of "Iris".
