Dance Sweep: November 16, 2013...
We're at the final "chart sweep" of the day, checking out the singles making the various charts in Billboard magazine, and I'll wrap things up with the latest dance jams in the clubs and on the radio...
On the DJ-polled Hot Dance Club Play chart, Rihanna scores yet another #1 single with "What Now"...
The highest debut of the week appropriately belongs to the late great queen of disco, Donna Summer, with a reworked version of her epic 1978 chart-topper "MacArthur Park 2013". Laidback Luke handles the knobs on the version on her great remix project just out (check out Chromeo's amazing job on "Love Is In Control")...

British "boyband" the Wanted return at #40 with "We Own The Night"...
Swedish dance twiddlers Henrik B and Niklas Gustavsson team up with vocalist Peter Johansson at #43 with "Echoes"...
Lana Del Rey comes in at #46 with "Young and Beautiful" from the Great Gatsby soundtrack. It follows "Summertime Sadness", which went to #15 and is still on the chart at 41 in its 14th week (a rarity on this list)..This new one is in the top-ten of the dance airplay chart...
Newcomer Clara Lofaro lands her first hit at #47 with "Born To Love You", my "Dance Pick of the Week"...
Fatboy Slim is back at #49 with producer Riva Starr and vocals from Beardyman for "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat", which is a top-5 hit in the UK..
the final entry on the club chart at #50 is another top ten airplay hit, "Thinking About You" by Scottish DJ/producer Calvin Harris and Jordanian singer Ayah Marar...
Meanwhile, on the radio-monitored Hot Dance Airplay/Mixshow chart, Avicii digs in for a ninth week on top with "Wake Me Up!"..
English dubstep artist Flux Pavilion (aka Joshua Steele) jumps in at #18 with "I Can't Stop"...
And swinging in at #22 is Miley Cyrus with "Wrecking Ball"...
That's it for today's sweeps...thanks for stopping by, and I'll be back tomorrow with another Song of the Day, part one of this week's "album sweep" recap, and my check on the British charts due in the afternoon. Cheers!
