twostepcub's music chart for May 6, 2016...

Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from the previous week. "7 Years" from Lukas Graham is on top for a fourth week, while the Pet Shop Boys (pictured above) leap into the top ten. Songs from MK/Becky Hill, Sia, and WTS/Gia make the biggest jumps (move of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from the Zac Brown Band, Chainsmokers, Dave Aude/Andy Bell, Kurt Vile, and Granger Smith drop off the list.

As the remix/production team of the Chainsmokers drop out with their former top-10 hit "Roses", they make up for it by claiming the top debut of the week at #74 with "Don't Let Me Down" featuring singer/songwriter Daya, who just had a single of her own on my list with "Hide Away"...

British neo-house artist Philip George enlists Canadian synthpop group Dragonette to perform on his new track "Feel This Way", which arrives at #82. It's George's third song on my chart...

Morgan Page, the progressive house DJ/producer from North Carolina, returns at #83 with "Running Wild" with Oddictions and singer Britt Daley...

"Moombahton" house producer Dillon Francis hooks up with Norwegian DJ/artist Kygo (who is at #81 with his own "Stay") and singer James Hersey at #85 for "Coming Over"...

Flume takes his former #1 Australian hit "Never Be Like You" featuring Kai to my chart at #88...

Yet another club hit, this time from singer Sheila Gordhan, enters the chart as "Smile" comes in at #89...

Pink is back at #91 with her brand new track from the upcoming Alice Through The Looking Glass movie franchise, "Just Like Fire"...

Well, Canadian's greatest rap export, Drake, lands at #96 with his top-3 pop hit "One Dance", but since there's no audio or video clip to share, here's the cover done by house music act Gorgon City on BBC...

The top hard rock song in the U.S., "Emotionless" from the band Red Sun Rising, ascends to my list at #98...

Club music veteran Terri B!, who was one part of the act 2 Eivissa, lands a solo single of her own, "I'm Coming Back", at #99...

The final newbie of the week at #100 is British neo-house duo Blonde along with singer Craig David (who had a top-ten pop hit in 2000 in the U.S. with "7 Days") for "Nothing Like This"...
