twostepcub's music chart for December 17, 2021...

 
Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 "hit" tunes from the previous week. Adele reigns supreme for the third week, while Kenny Chesney (pictured above) leaps into the top five. Songs from NEIKED, Silk Sonic, and Taylor Swift make some of the biggest jumps this time out (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while no big hits drop out. And under the list everything is Spotify playlisted for five and a half hours of the biggest in pop, rock, R&B, country, and dance music. This is the final chart of my 2021 "chart year", and starting next week I'll be counting down the 100 biggest songs of the year on this series. Stay tuned!
