twostepcub's music chart for May 1, 2015...

Friday is here, and it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from the previous week. Walk the Moon spend a seventh week at #1, while Taylor Swift (pictured above) sneaks into my top-5. Former big hits from Madonna and Brett Eldredge drop off my list, while songs from Ivy Levan, the Offspring, and Erasure make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). Where are those May flowers?
