twostepcub's music chart for August 12, 2022...

 

 

 

Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 "hit" tunes from the previous week. Lizzo leads for a ninth week, while Beyonce (pictured above) climbed a couple notches in the top ten. Former big hits from Lil Nas X, Florence + The Machine, Camila Cabello/Ed Sheeran, Maggie Rogers, Muni Long, and Jax Jones/MNEK drop off my chart, while songs from Jack White, Luke Combs, and Jackson Dean make some of the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red). And under the list everything is Spotify playlisted for 5 1/2 hours of the biggest in pop, rock, R&B, country, and dance music. FBI, we need an unboxing video!
