twostepcub's music chart for January 18, 2013...

Hey gang, it's time for my top-100 tunes for the week, and this time out Bruno Mars hangs on to #1 for a second week. Ed Sheeran (pictured above) moves even closer to the top-10 after almost a year on my chart, as a former big hit by Christina Aguilera drops out. Tracks by Imagine Dragons, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, and Havana Brown make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). The flu? Ain't nobody got time for dat!

There are four new song on my chart this week (highlighted in blue), and the clips for them will be right after the break. You can also go to each of the new songs' artists' websites by clicking on their name.


First off is dance music singer Kerli, who hails from the Eastern European nation of Estonia on the Baltic Sea. The third top-10 club hit from her upcoming Utopia album and the third to make my chart, "The Lucky Ones", arrives at #88...

At #94 is a revived hit from 1983 by British New Romantics Spandau Ballet, with the remixed version of their top-40 single "Gold". Remixed by Basto, the song recently got another day in the sun when a radio station played the song one time for each medal the UK won in the Olympics (that would be 29)...

Alt-rockers Silversun Pickups arrive at #96 with the second single from their recent album Neck Of The Woods, "The Pit". It's their sixth to reach my list since "Lazy Eye" in 2007...

Lastly at #99 is a British singer/songwriter that was last on my list with her amazing cover of Bon Iver's "Skinny Love". Birdy is back with another cover she makes her own, this time Cherry Ghost's "People Help the People"...

That's it for tonight...Thanks so much for dropping by, I'll be back tomorrow with another Song of the Day, Candletime, and my five-part look at the new music making its way on to the singles charts in Billboard magazine. See ya then!
