twostepcub's music chart for August 8, 2014...

Friday is upon us, so it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from the past week. Sam Smith hangs tight at #1 for a seventh week with "Stay With Me", while fellow countrymen Coldplay (pictured above) jump into the top-10. Former big hits from The Band Perry, Three Days Grace, Justin Moore, and Cher drop off my list, while songs by Beyonce, Maroon 5, and Disclosure make the biggest leap (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). Let's rodeo, Ohio!
