twostepcub's music chart for April 7, 2017...

Friday's here, and I'm ready to run down my top 100 tunes from the previous week. Rag N' Bone Man leads for an eleventh week, while James Arthur (pictured above) holds tight in the top ten. Songs from Luke Combs, the Shins, and Sander Kleinenberg make the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from Ariana Grande/Nicki Minaj, Brett Eldredge, Calum Scott, and the Chainsmokers/Halsey drop off my list. 100 years ago...
