Gotye Holds On To #1

With only ten weeks on the chart Gotye's Somebody That I Used To Know featuring Kimbra is already shaping up to be one of this year's biggest tracks as it scores a fourth consecutive week at the top, and still with a bullet. And although the song ends its streak as Greatest Gainer, it still manages to reach a new maximum of +450 points for this chart issue. That's almost the same number of points by all titles below the #30 position combined! In other Gotye-related news, Making Mirrors makes the jump to #1 for the first time on this week's album chart knocking out Adele's 21 to the #2 position.

So, who gets Greatest Gainer honors this week? Well it's none other than Bon Iver's Towers which jumps 19 spots to the number 14 position in its fifth week on the chart. It's already their biggest song since Calgary and expect it go even higher because I'm really feeling this song a lot at the moment. As far as the Biggest Jumper of the week goes, leave it to Friendly Fires as their latest album's title track Pala moves up 25 to #22 this week. Madonna makes a return to the charts since 2009's Celebration and gets this week's Highest Debut with her newest single Give Me All Your Luvin' featuring Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. entering at #76. Lana Del Rey follows with her third chart entry so far, this time is Blue Jeans debuting at #77. Amy Winehouse enters at #88 with Between The Cheats and The Cars' Keep On Knocking closes as Power Play track of the week debuting at #100.

'Move Like This' by The Cars

One of the good things about The Cars' new album, Move Like This is the fact that their last studio set, Door To Door, was released way back in 1987! That's more than 20 years, so the best way to come back into this digital era is getting their new music streaming for free before its release. The album is officially released on May 10th. To this day Drive (from 1984) stands as their biggest worldwide hit but last year's reunion resulted in the making of new material and with it, another shot on the music charts. Sad Song is the album's official first single. You can listen to that one or the entire set below:
