twostepcub's music chart for October 19, 2012...

Hey gang, it's time for my top-100 tunes for the week. This week Pink takes over the #1 spot, while British rock A-listers Mumford & Sons (pictured above) leap into the top-10. Songs by OneRepublic, Black Keys, and David Guetta with Sia make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits by Little Big Town, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, and Josh Turner drop out. Man, that's a spicy burrito!
