twostepcub's music chart for April 24, 2015...

Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from the previous week. "Shut Up And Dance" from Walk the Moon is on top for a sixth week, while Ellie Goulding (pictured above) has two songs in my top-5. Songs from Kenny Chesney, Jess Glynne, and OMI make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from Jason Aldean, Avery Sunshine, Ella Henderson, and Blake Shelton drop out. Happy 75th to the coolest dad in the entire world...
