Notes:

• Just Dance is the only song from 2008 remaining on the chart.
  
• Although three weeks have elapsed since the last chart, I only upped the week count of all songs by one. This is because Rick Dees doesn't count the specials weeks as weeks on the chart. However, up until now the week count of songs from 2008 did credit them the three weeks of countdown specials that took place at the end of the year. Since Just Dance is the only 2008 song remaining, this is a good time for a clean start at doing the week count right.
  
• Still no rebound by The Ting Tings. Wow.
  
• Beautiful by Eminem gets a high debut despite being obsolete on Mediabase.

[/li][li]This is the first time Britney Spears has been featured as a Sure Shot during her last two eras.
[/li][li]Before playing the Eminem song, Rick mentioned Mariah's new single "Obsessed" and explained her motivation behind it.
[/li][li]"I'm In Miama, Trick" by LMFAO was played as an extra.

What does Sure Shot 'ensure'?

[shoocoochoocoo]

sure shot means that the song will enter the chart the following week

[gin]

Not necessarily the following week, but usually the following week.

[0202]

do Sure Shots get played at all?

[gin]

The Sure Shot is always played, usually as the first song of the show.

[shark cousteau]

i can remeber 'i like them girls' by tyrese being a sure shot in may 2001 and not debuting until august. way to call it rick!

[shoocoochoocoo]

it seems u have made a little mistake: 04 24 17 Birthday Sex - Jeremih - so this is the highest climber of the week

[gin]

Fixed.

That kinda thing happened in the '90s a lot too. There's even a link on the Nostalgia board about Sure Shots that never hit the Top 40.

And I think "Love At First Sight" by Kylie Minogue was played twice.
