Twostepcub's music chart for January 18, 2008...

Hey guys, I'm back. I'm sorry for going in biweekly clips, but I've been having computer cutover issues. Namely, I got a new Muse, and between that and a mislaid hand on the keyboard, switched over 60% of my collection in the computer that I had OCDingly labelled. Also, work has been a bear the past month. Damn. Well at least if that's my worst worry (backup, backup, backup), then I should be OK. Now back to business. This week, Sugarland stays on top for a fourth week, while newcomer Sara Bareilles (pictured above) moves within the top-10. The Foo Fighters, Ida Corr, and Alan Jackson make the biggest moves (big jump are in red) and this week Mika, Sara Evans, Clay Walker, Blake Shelton, and Dierks Bentley drop off. The "last week" position is from the chart I hadn't put up on here. And thankfully (and with lots of effort) Link-o-rama is back in effect, so you can click on the highlighted name of any artist to go to their website. Burpies!
