10. White Stripes - You Don’t Know What Love Is
last week: 13 spins: 1174 last week: 1039 move: 135
Ah, finally some changes in the top 10. Check Paramore up at #3. That is awesome. And while Serj Tankian and the second White Stripes single in the top 10 is no surprise, it’s good to see them in there. These songs knocked LP out of the top 10, so that makes me happy.
My Watch List:
13. Against Me! - Thrash Unreal
last week: 14 spins: 1039 last week: 994 move: 45
This song has legs...people love the lyrics to it. I get all sorts of hits because I posted the lyrics when I did my review of the album.
14. Silverchair - Straight Lines
last week: 12 spins: 953 last week: 1046 move: -93
Wah, this is heading down the list. I really wanted their comeback in America to include a top 10 on the alt rock charts.
20. Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles
last week: 21 spins: 725 last week: 679 move: 46
This entered the charts at the same time as Against Me! and is doing well all things considered.
25. Smashing Pumpkins - That’s The Way (My Love Is)
last week: 24 spins: 539 last week: 540 move: -1
I really hope that this isn’t it for this song. Come on now, this is my fave of the new Pumpkins.
32. MuteMath - Typical
last week: 34 spins: 359 last week: 377 move: -18
This has been hovering in the 30’s for weeks now.
36. Coheed and Cambria - The Running Free
last week: 40 spins: 337 last week: 312 move: 25
This will get more airplay as the album is about to drop and they are heading out on tour.
40. Puscifer - Queen B
last week: 56 spins: 270 last week: 188 move: 82
No stopping the love for all things Maynard.
41. Feist - 1,2,3,4
last week: 57 spins: 268 last week: 186 move: 82
So when does the indie backlash begin? When this song hits the top 20 on another chart (like triple A or what not?)
43. Hives - Tick, Tick, Boom
last week: 48 spins: 254 last week: 226 move: 28
Another song that will be helped by the release of the album and a tour.
