Twostepcub's music chart for December 23, 2022...

 
Friday's here, and it's time to run down my top 100 "hit" tunes from the previous week. We have a new winner at #1 with Taylor Swift, while newcomers Beach Weather (pictured above) leap into the top five. A former big hit from Lizzo drops off my chart, while songs from Avril Lavigne/YUNGBLUD, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Michigander make 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. Happy holidays everyone, to whatever you celebrate.
 
And by the way, my year-end countdown of the biggest songs of 2022 from this weekly chart is going on, you can catch up with the series by clicking here.
