twostepcub's music chart for January 9, 2015...
Friday is finally here, and time to check out my top 100 tunes from the week. Hozier returns to #1 for a third non-consecutive week, while Ed Sheeran (pictured above) claims his third top-5 hit from his x album. Former big hits from Nico & Vinz (two of them), Little Big Town, Erasure, Vassy/Dave Aude, Echosmith, Mary Lambert, Sia, and Magic drop off my list, while songs from Axwell/Ingrosso, Thomas Rhett, and Brett Eldredge make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). Je Suis Charlie!
