TMJ Charts: Santigold Breaks #1 Record!

I saw it coming and it's happened. A 7-year-old record has finally been broken and we all have Santigold to turn our heads to. 16 weeks at the top gives Disparate Youth the honor of being the longest stay at the top for any song since I started this little chart back in late 2004. The record was previously held by Mariah Carey whose We Belong Together spent a total of 15 weeks at the top back in 2005. A few years later - six, to be exact - that record was almost broken when Friendly Fires tied at 15 weeks at the top with Hawaiian Air. That was in late 2011, but now the record goes back to one and one woman only. Cheers to that!

Disparate Youth - Live at BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge


Now the thing is how long can she hold on to the top spot. Let's not forget that Disparate Youth had an incredible debut at #2, only to claim the #1 spot the week after. And the thing is that it's still ahead from its closest competitor by quite a decent amount of points. WZRD is getting ready though to claim their first chart-topper with either Love Hard (the week's Greatest Gainer) or Teleport 2 Me, Jamie which finds a new peak at #4. Alex Clare is also headlining the Top 10 with two tracks as Up All Night returns to #7 and Too Close goes single-digit for the first time at #9. And we say good-bye to Adele's Someone Like You as it leaves the Top 10 for the first time since December 23, 2011. The Biggest Jump and Power Play of the week goes to a well-deserved return to the charts to one favorite, Alanis Morissette, as Guardian jumps to #28. Her last chart appearance came in early 2009 when Not As We peaked at #63.

The Recurrent Chart sees Kings Of Leon returning to the #1 spot with Notion for a sixth week, while WZRD returns to the top of the albums chart with their self-titled record for a second week.
