twostepcub's music chart for October 5, 2018...

Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 tunes from the previous week. Lauv spends a second week on top, while Imagine Dragons (pictured above) climbs two rungs in the top ten. Songs from Panic At The Disco, Sabrina Carpenter, and Cole Swindell make some of the biggest jumps (moves of over 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from Zedd/Maren Morris, Peabo Bryson, Brett Young, and Tony Moran/Jason Walker drop out.

Returning to claim the top debut of the week is Irish indie-folk singer/songwriter Hozier, whose breakout single "Take Me To Church" was one of the biggest hits of the past ten years on my chart. He brings along soul legend Mavis Staples of the Staples Singers ("I'll Take You There") to enter at #77 with "Nina Cried Power"...

Jade Bird follows up her single "Lottery", which hit my top ten this year, with the song at #83, "Uh Huh"...

Country newcomer Mitchell Tenpenny makes his debut at #88 with "Drunk Me". It's from his self-titled EP, and it's one of my personal favorite country songs of the year...

Alt-soul sensation Janelle Monae made the top-40 earlier this year with "Make Me Feel"; she's back at #91 with "I Like That", also from her stellar album Dirty Computer...

Silk City, the moniker used for the collaboration of DJ/producers Diplo and Mark Ronson, team up with singer Dua Lipa for "Electricity", which buzzes in at #94...
