twostepcub's music chart for August 9, 2013...

Hey gang, the weekend is upon us, and time to roll out my top 100 tunes from the past one. Robin Thicke hangs on to the top spot for a fourth week, while Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding (pictured above) climb up the top-10. Tracks by Frank Turner, Pink, and Avicii make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits by Brantley Gilbert and Tim McGraw drop off my list.
