twostepcub's music chart for March 28, 2014...






Friday's here, and time to check out my top-100 song from the week. This week Pharrell spends a third week at #1, while Young The Giant (pictured above) inches closer to the top-10. Songs by The Pretty Reckless, Empire Of The Sun, and Tiesto make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from My Crazy Girlfriend, Eric Paslay, and Cher drop out. Days are numbers, watch the stars...

The top entry of the week is one of those novelty records you either love or hate. At present, I think it's hilarious, but then I don't hear it on an endless loop. It's from the New York remixing duo the Chainsmokers with "#SELFIE" at #82...


A "debut" in the loose sense of the word, Cyndi Lauper returns at #84 with the club rework of her classic 1984 ballad "Time After Time". The original went to #1 on both my personal chart and the Billboard Hot 100 thirty years ago (damn. I'm old.)...


Russo-German DJ and producing prodigy Zedd is back at #87 with his followup to the top-10 2SC hit "Stay The Night". "Find You" is from the just released soundtrack to The Hunger Games: Divergent, and features vocals from Matthew Koma and Miriam Bryant...


London dance music producer Rowan Jones, aka Route 94, drives in at #89 with "My Love" featuring singer Jess Glynne, who also is on the Clean Bandit song at #6 on my list...


Country singer Thomas Rhett follows up his former smash "It Goes Like This" (which made my top-100 of the year in 2013) with "Get Me Some Of That" at #91...


Australian indie folk-rock band Boy & Bear debut at #92 with their first on my list, "Southern Sun"...


Progressive house and trance veteran Kaskade teams up with newcomers Project 46 at #94 with "Last Chance"...


Another new dance music artist, DJ Rockster, enters at #97 with "How I Feel" featuring Paul Cless...


Norwegian pop/soul duo Nico & Vinz arrive at #99 with their first hit, "Am I Wrong". It's been a top-5 hit all over northern Europe...


The final entry of the week is the fifth single from crossover country duo Florida Georgia Line's expanded debut album, "This Is How We Roll". It features Nashville A-lister Luke Bryan...


That's it for tonight...I'll be back tomorrow with my five-part "chart sweeps" of the songs making the charts in Billboard. See ya!
