twostepcub's music chart for July 25, 2014...

Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from last week. Sam Smith holds on to the top spot for a fifth week, while Canadian reggae stars (that aren't Snow) Magic! land in my top-5. Former big hits from Sara Bareilles and Thomas Rhett drop off of my chart, while songs by Dave Aude' with Andy Bell, Kylie Minogue, and Robyn & Royksopp make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). Congrats on your wedding Whore and Dr. Whore!
