TMJ Charts: No Doubt Returns to #1

A great week for No Doubt who score their second #1 song from their new album Push And Shove. The title song inches up one spot to take the crown while Lana Del Rey's Radio falls to #3 after just one week on top. No Doubt is now the second act to score more than one #1 song on the chart during 2012 after Gotye. Their song Settle Down, went on to spend 5 weeks at the top and currently stands at #19.

And speaking of Gotye, he's actually about to score a third chart-topper this year now that Save Me moves up to #2 in its 15th week on the chart. It's currently a strong contender and the only song gaining points inside the Top 10 besides Clique by Kanye West, Jay-Z and Big Sean which is up to #7 and Young The Giant's surprising move to #9 with God Made Man. Good moves as well for The Gaslight Anthem who see "45" leap to #15, Sloom by Of Monsters And Men which is up to #16, Bruno Mars' Locked Out Of Heaven is up to #24, Imagine Dragons jump big to #25 with It's Time and Metric's Youth Without Youth which jumps 55 to #32. But the Biggest move, as well as Greatest Gainer of the week, belongs to Nelly Furtado whose Spirit Indestructible is up 59 spots to #33.

The week's Highest Debut is also this week's Power Play track, and it goes to Rihanna, scoring her 16th chart entry as lead artist with Diamonds. The song debuts at #65. Kid Cudi also returns to the chart with Just What I Am featuring King Chip at #82, and so does Ke$ha who scores her 7th chart entry with Die Young debuting at #99.

The Recurrent Songs chart has a new song at the top and it's Swedish House Mafia's Miami 2 Ibiza making a big jump to #1 from last week's #40 position. And the Albums chart celebrates its 300th issue with a first for Lana Del Rey who finally reaches the top with Born To Die after 38 weeks on the chart, most of them inside the Top 5.

TMJ Charts: Lana Del Rey Gets Her #1

A very busy week on the charts as we have many debuts, chart returns and a new #1 on the Songs tally with Lana Del Rey finally reaching the top for the very first time since her chart debut with the song Radio. Having debuted at the #100 position in late April of this year and bouncing out after only one week, the song finally picked up a really good pace when it re-entered at #62 in mid-August. By early this month it was already inside the Top 10 and has now won the battle against Gotye's Eyes Wide Open, which is down to #3 this week.


And watch out for this week's #2 where we have No Doubt picking up as Greatest Gainer with Push And Shove jumping from 17 with only 3 weeks on the chart, and now most likely to follow the steps of their previous chart-topper Settle Down. There's also The Killers, who jump 4 to #4 with Flesh And Bone, a new Top 10 hit for Gotye as Save Me rockets from #27 to #6, P!nk reaches a new peak of 7 in the second round of Blow Me (One Last Kiss) for the top, and the return of Santigold with The Keepers at #10.

The week's biggest jump belongs to Kanye West, Jay-Z and Big Sean as Clique leaps 42 spots all the way to #14. And making up for last week's drought, there are plenty of new songs this time around starting with the Highest Debut at #72 where Bruno Mars returns to the chart with his new single Locked Out Of Heaven. His most recent chart entry was It Will Rain which peaked at #26 earlier this year. There's also Imagine Dragons making a double chart debut with It's Time at #74 and Radioactive at #100. Chris Brown crowns a new chart entry with Turn Up The Music at #81. Metric returns to the chart since 2009's Gimme Sympathy, this time with Youth Without Youth entering at #87, and so does Nelly Furtado whose last chart entry came in 2009 with Manos Al Aire, but now returns with Spirit Indestructible as Power Play of the week at #92. Lana Del Rey scores a new chart entry at #94 with Ride, and Christina Aguilera's Your Body at #98 is her first solo track in two years.

Somewhere Only We Know by Keane and Making Mirrors by Gotye repeat at #1 on the Recurrent Songs chart and Albums chart this week, respectively.

TMJ Charts: Gotye Stays at #1

This week brings us Gotye spending a second week at #1 with the song Eyes Wide Open, from his album Making Mirrors. With his previous hit Somebody That I Used To Know, he's the only artist this year to have scored two #1 songs on the Songs Chart, and he comes at second place as the artist with the most weeks at the top this year with 8, so far. Only Santigold has spent more at the top with record-breaking 19 weeks.

Eyes Wide Open (Live at David Letterman)

More on the Songs charts with Lana Del Rey scoring her fourth Top 10 hit so far with Radio jumping eight to #6. Her previous hits include Summertime Sadness (#5), Blue Jeans (#4), and Video Games (#2). Meanwhile, Santigold returns to the Top 5 with Disparate Youth and Gotye's second song in the Top 10, Giving Me A Chance, remains steady at #8. The week's Hot Shot and Highest Debut belongs to No Doubt whose Push And Shove featuring Busy Signal and Major Lazer starts at #30. There's only a couple more debuts this week with Kanye West, Big Sean and Jay-Z's Clique entering at #75, and Power Play track of the week, Don't You Worry Child by Swedish House Mafia featuring John Martin, entering at #97. The Highest Jump is Gotye's Save Me which leaps 44 spots this week to #45.

The Recurrent Songs chart has Friendly Fires spending a second week at the top with Jump In The Pool, while Making Mirrors by Gotye spends its 11th week at the top of the Albums chart.

US Charts: Beyoncé's '4' Headed For No. 1

From Billboard.com:

Beyonce's fourth studio album, "4," is headed for a No. 1 debut next week on the Billboard 200 chart with maybe 300,000 copies sold by week's send on Sunday, July 3, according to industry prognosticators. If it starts at the top, it will be her fourth No. 1 solo album -- her three previous studio sets all hit No. 1 as well.

A 300,000 launch is off from the 482,000 (according to Nielsen SoundScan) that greeted her last effort, 2008's "I Am... Sasha Fierce" and the 541,000-first week for 2006's "B'Day." Still, 300,000 could be viewed as a handsome bow in today's soft album-sales market and considering the set has yet to launch an across-the-board smash single.

Its lead-off track, "Run the World (Girls)," has so far peaked at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 and sold 424,000 downloads in the U.S. That stands in stark contrast to "Sasha Fierce," which was ushered in by two hit lead tracks: "If I Were a Boy" (No. 3) and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" (No. 1).

So far, "4," is Beyonce's first album that didn't see its lead single reach the Hot 100's top 10. Her 2003 "Dangerously In Love" debut launched with "Crazy In Love" (No. 1 for eight weeks) while "B'Day's" first single, "Deja Vu," hit No. 4.

Beyonce's "4" was one of a number of big albums that hit retailers on Tuesday, June 28. Among the other titles headed for a top five bow next week are rapper Big Sean's "Finally Famous" and Selena Gomez and the Scene's "When the Sun Goes Down." They are perhaps going to sell 90,000 and 80,000, respectively, in their debut frames.

Also aiming for a top 10 entry is David Cook's second album, "This Loud Morning" and Limp Bizkit's first studio album in six years, "Gold Cobra."
