Personal comments:
-3rd week at #1 for CHU! I'm really curious to see what's going to replace this and when. Right now it has zero competition, as JGMAR is falling and Mirrors's sales aren't holding up
-"Cruise" is performing way better than I could have ever expected. One of the biggest country-pop crossovers we've had in a long time
-Wow, who would have thought that of all artists, Pharrell Williams would be the big rising artist of the summer!? I do really like "Blurred Lines" though, it's a really catchy and fun song
-Not too much to say this week, there were a lot on non-movers

Well its great to see Cant Hold Us on top for another week! It doesnt seem to have much competition either which is a good/bad thing. Im glad to see Get Lucky climbing into the top ten, its honestly one of the most catchy songs i have heard in a while :D. I actually think it could climb considerabley and possibly take the number one spot from Macklemore, Ryan Lewis and Ray Dalton. It has been no.1 in th UK for four weeks and is already the 2nd best selling single of 2013.

-4th week for CHU!!
-Woah, "Get Lucky" is really blowing up! I can see this being the next #1 after CHU dies down
-The success of "Cruise" is genuinely confusing me. The remix isn't even that good, and the "pop" version is barely different from the country one
-Looks like "Stay" will outlast WIWYM in the Top 10, which I'm very happy again. Rihanna made the better of the two ballads
-"Radioactive" biding its time as it grows on radio... I can see this beating the record "Cruise" just set this week for slowest climb into the Top 5
-Beautiful that "Clouds" managed to debut fairly high. Say what you want about the song itself, it's great to see that viral videos can go towards something good, and not just stupid Harlem Shake stuff

unfortunately, I was busy this past week, so I'm not so up-to-date with these songs.
•i'm not surprised that Macklemore and Lewis are still #1. they've been pretty dominant in 2013 (and the halfway mark is around the corner). I wonder how much success they'll have in the summer now that all the generic dance/electronic singles are invading the airwaves
•overall, I love the Top 3, even though they're getting old. the 2 ballads, I was getting tired of... except I didn't mind hearing Stay on the radio (the original, not the remix)
•btw I'm stupid. I don't have Get Lucky downloaded. I should probably do that now (after lunch, homework, extracurriculars, college enrollment... just kill me now)
•i hate that I like Selena Gomez's single. it's not special at all and the lyrics are so simple and, like her boyfriend, she's so auto tuned. I guess I'm entranced by the foreign percussion, and the synth in the chorus, and Selena being sexy :p

Katy's album is allegedly coming out in September guys! :D

Still no news on ARTPOP, the struggle is real. :/

It's weird considering I've never really been too big on Katy Perry, but I'm actually kind of interested to hear some of her new stuff. I remember a while back she said that her new album would have "darker pop", so I'm curious to see what she means by that. I hope that the sound of the album is similar to how "Wide Awake" sounded, because I think she was going in a great direction with that song - especially considering pure happy electro-pop is somewhat struggling in 2013 compared to softer songs.

Still no news on ARTPOP, the struggle is real. :/

Last I heard, there were plans (or rumours) for an August single release and an autumn album release. But considering it's almost June and Gaga has said nothing about Artpop, I'm surprised if we even get it then...

speaking of electro-pop, since I've already said a couple of times that I'm sick of these generic songs being released every summer, the only one I'm really enjoying (a lot) is Clarity. I guess I'm just expressing myself. hopefully, this song gets big. it feels.. different

I'm glad I'm not the only one paying attention to this masterpiece of a song. It's honestly beautiful, definitely one of the more mature sounding electro-pop songs I've heard in a long time.

Anyways... for my X Factor USA watching people out there, multiple sources have been confirming that Fifth Harmony's new single will be released on June 17th. I don't know about you guys, but I am super excited for this. I loved them on X Factor and from listening to their covers on YouTube, they seem to have gotten even better since the show.

Does anyone else love the band Owl City which was created by an AWESOME guy named Adam Young? (he was the one who teamed up with Carly Rae Jepsen this past Summer with the song "Good Time", and was also the creator of the song "Fireflies" which was HUGE back in '09). Because I am a TOTAL Hootowl (A.K.A a HUGE fan of Owl City!) So has anyone else heard his music, or is a hootowl or fan as well. I'm just curious! ;3

P.S. Sorry if I sound like some crazy fangirl, but I am just really excited to see if anyone else has heard of or likes Owl City! :D

ARTPOP news is heavily rumored to be quickly approaching. Zynga, the company behind Farmville, posted a pic of a cartoon version of Gaga and said that we won't believe the "new thing" they have next week. Gaga released a photo of herself in the studio with Dallas Austin (worked for P!nk, Madonna, Gwen Stefani and others in the past). Music sites and insiders are starting to tweet things like ARTPOP lyrics, and Tara tweeted about the house.

It's close, I can feel it! :D

I LOVE his first album as Owl City! I haven't been able to get into the rest quite as much, but I still like a lot of his newer material!

Well, no movement there in the top three this week, but Get Lucky... I did sort of tell you all this would happen, but seriously, it is a great song and Pharrell is going to have some success as he also features on Robin Thickes 'Blurred Lines' and im wondering what you guys think of it?
As for 'Cruise' I dont really think its a great song... But i dont know if it will shift up any more.
Also its good to see Radioactive still around there.

OMG, AWESOME! I am so happy that you like his music! So your favorite album (well, technically it is an EP) is his first called Of June? Or is it is true first album, Maybe I'm Dreaming? I'm just curious! ;3

Bruno is in his 31st consecutive week in the top ten, the only person right now with such a high total. However, he won't be making bid for any records, because it seems that WIWYM will all out long before "Treasure" can enter the top ten.

Welp, I typed first and meant second, sorry! :p It's Ocean Eyes. Everything about it is perfect.

At this point I think Beyonce is just taunting her fans for a Greatest Hits release or something. There's only two confirmed tracks, only one of which has even leaked in full, and she's already on tour.

That said, "Grown Woman" is brilliant and "Standing on the Sun" is the greatest thing she has ever created. I want the latter to be released like right now, I need my summer anthem.

Oh my goodness! Where did Blurred Lines come from? Never thought the bass guitar would play such a good role in this song. The instrumental is so good, too! It's such a basic R&B song with high and low variation's of a certain line that is executed perfectly!
Hope it stays number one for a long time!

I think their album debuted at #1 too which is pretty cool. It's a really good album.

Isn't that the one that Chris posted ages ago
*hipster glasses on*

Frankly I don't actually care about Katy and Gaga right now... What I need is an announcement from Beyonce so she can hurry up and slay careers. She performed Standing On The Sun at a concert recently and it's so perfect for summer oh my god

It sounds amazing. I can't believe she's not releasing.
