twostepcub's music chart for July 16, 2010...

Good evening, everyone, it's time for my top tunes for the week. This week Katy Perry spends a second week on top, while Lady GaGa (pictured above) jumps into the top-10. The biggest moves are made by songs by Neon Trees, Lifehouse, and Kylie Minogue, while former big hits by Daughtry, Delerium, Michael Buble, and Rihanna drop out. Link-O-Rama is still in effect, so you can click on the highlighted name of any of the artists to go to their website (rightclick, and you can use another window or tab). $5.62?!?! That's insane!

This week nine new songs debut on my chart (along with La Roux's "Bulletproof" which comes back). The highest is by Los Angeles-based rock band Maroon 5, with their new single, "Misery". Watch them get beat up, all in the name of love and music...



Rihanna's former #1 hit "Rude Boy" just drops off the top-100, to be replaced by her fourth straight hit single from Rated R. Here's "Rockstar 101"...



Surfer slash singer Jack Johnson is back with a new album and single, "You And Your Heart"...



Lolene, aka Miss Foo Foo, is an English dance music singer who follows up "Sexy People" with an apparent ode to reality TV "Rich (Fake It Till You Make It)"...



Sariah is a NYC based club singer who's online biography is vague and riffs on the royal alias to associate with other queens. Her first single is the bouncy "Deep N Luv"...



Next up is country hunk Billy Currington with a song many of my friends could take to heart - "Pretty Good At Drinking Beer"...



And now for British rapper/singer Example, with a song that was a top-10 hit in England months ago, and is just crossing the pond now. Here's "Won't Go Quietly"...



Former lead singer for the Calling (known for "Wherever You Will Go") Alex Band was last heard with Santana on one of the two versions of "Why Don't You & I", and now has his first truly solo hit, with "Tonight"...



and finally, a rapper/singer from the good ol' USA, Mike Posner hails from Detroit, and his first single is a Billboard top-10 smash already. Here's "Cooler Than Me"...




That's all, folks!
