twostepcub's music chart for February 27, 2009...

Here I am, as the snow is falling, posting my tunes for the week. This week Lady GaGa with Colby O'Donis spend a second week at the top, while the Pussycat Dolls (pictured above) make it into the top-5. Former hit songs by Flanders and two by Leona Lewis drop out of the chart, while songs by Enrique Iglesias, Nicki Richards, and Theory Of A Deadman make the biggest jumps. And since T.I.'s "Life Your Life drops, this is the first no-Rihanna list since I can remember. Link-O-Rama is back, so you can click on the name of any of the artists to go to their website (right click and you can stay here while bringing up the site in another tab or window) . I don't think this is what they mean by "shovel-ready"...

This week five new songs debut on the chart. By far the highest is the new track from English singer Lily Allen. Daughter of Welsh comedian Keith Allen, Lily had an awesome debut album in 2006, (Alright, Still), which was one of the best of the Britgirls releases with its sweet yet subversive lyric. This time out she hooks up with producer Greg Kurstin, who as 1/2 of act Bird & The Bee, had a song on my chart a couple years back ("F*cking Boyfriend"). Here's her take on being part of "pop culture" and my pick for the week, "The Fear"...
