Retrospective

 

                                                                           Song: "I Choose You"
                                                                           Artist: Sara Bareilles

                                                                                Peak: #3, 2014

 

Blurb: The follow-up to 2013's "Brave," one of the biggest hits on my personal chart for that year logging 3 weeks at #1, was almost certain to do well, and "I Choose You" was certainly not a disappointment. Since then, however, Bareilles hasn't had any notable showings on the chart, but she has a decently strong history dating back to 2008's chart-topping "Love Song," and chugging forward with 2010's "King of Anything" and 2011's "Uncharted" peaking at #1 and #8 respectively. "I Choose You" peaked at #3 in July of 2014 behind two chart-topping songs: "Play It Again" by Luke Bryan and "Chandelier" by Sia.

 

Since "I Choose You," the Bareilles song that receives the most play by me has been "She Used To Be Mine" from her musical, Waitress. The song never charted, however, but it still has a slight cultural permeation due in part to its use in an SNL skit almost 4 years after its release.

[Remmy]

I Choose You  A very sweet song from her best album. Although sometimes I mix it up with 1000 Times (which I prefer by a little bit.)  No thoughts head empty @ the #1  Killers almost there ahh  Taylor debuting + Foster, Nightly, Miley, Ellie, Taylor/Bon all rising  Save a Kiss finally hitting the top 10 while WYP? got a nice boost  Gaga +17 oh absolutely!

Chart Notes:

• With "Mood" jumping 5 spots forward from 15-10, both 24kGoldn and Iann Dior earn their first top ten with their first charting entry.
• This week, "hand crushed by a mallet (Remix)" resurges back into #1 for a third non-consecutive week, making it the first song to do so since "Something Like This" by The Chainsmokers and Coldplay had their run interrupted for one week by "Symphony" by Clean Bandit featuring Zara Larsson in April 2017. To clearly indicate how rare of an occurrence this is on this chart, this is only the second time according to current records (older records predating 2015 have to rely on my vague recollections for now due to losing access to the Excel spreadsheet files and no longer having access to old ATRL and as a result could be flawed in terms of exact timings and chart histories).
• Lady Gaga earns her 18th top ten this week as "911" surges 5 spaces from 13-8. Her top ten history is as follows:

Spoiler

1. Just Dance (feat. Colby O'Donis) (2008, #1)
2. Poker Face (2009, #1)
3. Paparazzi (2009, #1)
4. Bad Romance (2009, #1)
5. Telephone (2010, #1)
6. Born This Way (2011, #1)
7. The Edge Of Glory (2011, #1)
8. Rain On Me (2020, #1)
9. LoveGame (2009, #2)
10. Shallow (with Bradley Cooper) (2019, #3)
11. Alejandro (2010, #4)
12. Judas (2011, #6)
13. Yoü and I (2011, #7)
14. Million Reasons (2017, #7)
15. Always Remember Us This Way (2019, #8)
16. 911 (2020, #8 so far)
17. Video Phone (2009, #10)
18. Stupid Love (2020, #10)

• Taylor Swift earns her 25th top ten this week and Bon Iver earns his fifth, as folklore-favorite "exile" continues its slow and steady climb from 11-9 following the meteoric rise and plummet of its chart-topping sister track, "cardigan."
  • Swift's top ten history is immense, spanning almost 13 years, so I'll go back and re-enter this in due time
  • Bon Iver's history is as such:

 

Spoiler

1. Monster (with Kanye West, Rick Ross, Jay-Z, and Nicki Minaj) (2010, #1)
2. Holocene (2011, #2)
3. Lost In The World (with Kanye West (2011, #3)
4. Woods (2010, #5)
5. exile ( 2020, #9 so far)

Retrospective

 

 

 

                                                                      Song: "Rose-Colored Boy"

                                                                               Artist: Paramore

                                                                                 Peak: #3, 2018

 

Blurb: The final single from Paramore's most recent album, After Laughter, "Rose-Colored Boy" serves an exuberant affirmation of not putting up a fake persona to please everyone else around you, and it soared to the upper regions of my personal chart in early summer 2018. It was held from the top position by two chart-toppers, "I Like It (featuring J Balvin and Bad Bunny)" by Cardi B and "Lucid Dreams" by the now-late Juice WRLD.

 

Since then, Paramore haven't charted as a group due to not releasing anything else, but the frontwoman, Hayley Williams, has reached #1 just months ago with "Dead Horse"  from her solo debut, Petals for Armor. Beyond charting, though, their entire discography receives regular recurrent play, especially selected tracks from their 2013 self-titled album such as "Still Into You," "Daydreaming," and "Ain't It Fun."

Chart Notes:

• The Killers earn their first ever number one with "My Own Soul's Warning" rising 3-1.

• Ellie Goulding's "Power" becomes her tenth top ten as it bounds 6 positions from 15-9. Her top ten history is as follows:

1. Lights (#1, 2012)

Retrospective

 

 

                                                                          Song: "Sit Next To Me"

                                                                       Artist: Foster The People

                                                 Peak: #1 (2 weeks), May 20, 2018, & May 27, 2018

 

The third single from their third album, Foster The People finally managed to earn their second number one after 2011's "Pumped Up Kicks." They had several top tens between them, including "Helena Beat," "Don't Stop (Color on the Walls)," and "Best Friend," however.

 

Since this song hit number one, Foster The People have continued to have modest success on the chart, including the currently-charting "The Things We Do."

[Jack Watson]

Sit Next To Me

[Remmy]

Sit Next to Me  We love her! Killers finally #1 yup yup  But Caution, The Man & pretty much the whole Battle Born era also deserved! It's surprising to still see Dead Horse here, and speaking of horses, I keep hearing Stupid Horse so often on Twitch streams  But I'd still never listen to it on my own. Jessie's WYP? passing by SAK  Taylor x2, Miley, Ellie, Gaga & Dua all on the rise

[potent]

Sit Next to Me is a bop

Great for The Killers

Exile still climbing, AYBY top 10

Twenty Something climbing here too
