Far East Movement & LMFAO › Live My Life (Party Rock Remix)

Mar 17, 2012

TMJ Charts: Queen Santigold + WZRD Takeover

Santigold sits comfortably at the top spot of the songs chart for a second week with Disparate Youth, the latest from her upcoming Master Of My Make-Believe album. The song is, once again, the greatest gainer track of the week with a +70 point-move from last week. At this pace, you should expect it to stay on top for many more weeks to come.

Disparate Youth (Live at the FADER FORT)


But things are looking very interesting with both Gotye and Adele making gains for Somebody That I Used To Know (#2) and Someone Like You (#3) respectively, while WZRD score their first top ten with Teleport 2 Me, Jamie rocketing all the way to #6 in its second week. We Are Young by fun. featuring Janelle Monáe moves up one to #7 and Lana Del Rey closes at #10 with Born To Die.

Much more chart action for WZRD scoring the biggest jump with Live & Learn making a leap from #73 all the way to #20, while Love Hard enters at #32 as power play and highest debut of the week. WZRD also score a new chart entry with The Dream Time Machine debuting at #92. Other debuts this week include Shock by Ana Tijoux (#43), Easy Way Out by Gotye (#77), Turn Up The Music by Chris Brown (#85), Glad You Came by The Wanted (#93), Sorry For Party Rocking by LMFAO (#94), Breathing by Jason Derülo (#96), Live My Life by Far East Movement and Justin Bieber (#97), Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen (#98) and Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair by Arctic Monkeys (#100).

And there's no stopping Adele on the other charts as she keeps dominating both Recurrent Songs and Albums for another week. Rolling In The Deep spends its tenth week at #1 while her album 21 scores a twelfth week at the top.

Jim Jones Takes Over

An unexpected turn in the race for #1 this week as rapper Jim Jones jumps eight spots to land directly at the top of the chart with a remix of Perfect Day. This version, is mixed by Clinton Sparks and DJ Snake, and does not seem to be official as I haven't found much info about it. It's Jones' second charted song. The first one was We Fly High from 2007. It also marks the return of the rhythmic genre to the top of the charts since January of this year when All Of The Lights by Kanye West featuring Rihanna and Kid Cudi ruled the chart for 4 consecutive weeks.

The greatest gainer of the week is Adele's Rolling In The Deep which now joins the list of possible chart-toppers by climbing to #10 in its third week. Not bad for her first and only charted song so far. The biggest jump belongs to Marina & The Diamonds' Numb which skyrockets 64 places to #20 this week. That's Marina's 7th Top 20 hit.

Two power play songs are also re-entries this week. First at #92 is Far East Movement's 2gether featuring Roger Sanchez and Kanobby and Thirty Seconds To Mars returns at #93 with Hurricane featuring Kanye West.

And its one of those rare occasions: There are no debuts on the chart this week.

Boy Bands Take Over The UK Charts

That's a very 1999 title but I'm not joking. This week sees two different generation of boy bands top both the singles and albums charts in the UK. On one hand there's the reunited group Take That with the fastest selling-album in the region and on the other the more recently formed group JLS for the singles chart.

From NME.com:
Take That have topped the UK album charts today (November 21) with the highest first-week sales for 13 years.

The reunited man-band’s album 'Progress' has sold almost 520,000 copies in the past week biggest opening numbers since Oasis with 'Be Here Now' in 2005.

They comfortably beat Rihanna's album 'Loud' which enters the charts at number two, while their single 'The Flood' remains at number two.

In a big week for boybands, JLS are a new entry at number one with their Children In Need single 'Love You More.

The top ten UK albums are:

1. Take That – 'Progress'
2. Rihanna – 'Loud'
3. Susan Boyle – 'The Gift'
4. Andre Rieu and Johann Strauss Orchestra – 'Moonlight Serenade'
5. Pink – 'Greatest Hits So Far'
6. Bon Jovi – 'Greatest Hits'

Kings Of Leon Go for a 3rd, Lupe's Big Debut

Even with all the competition this week sees another reign by rock band Kings Of Leon, who now have their longest running No. 1 song on the chart as Radioactive stays on top for a third consecutive week. Following close behind is Marina & The Diamonds who make it to their all-time peak of No. 2 yet again but this time with their single Shampain. That'll probably end B.o.B's chances of going to the top with the Rivers Cuomo collaboration, Magic, which goes down a notch to the No. 3 spot. But things get more interesting thanks to a huge debut by Lupe Fiasco as The Show Goes On enters directly at No. 8, giving him his 18th overall chart entry and his 7th top 10 song. It will most likely become his second chart-topper in the weeks to come.

Nov 6, 2010

Kings Of Leon Stay On Top

Radioactive leads the chart for a second week, matching the success of Kings Of Leon's previous chart-toppers. The title also reaches Platinum status this week for surpassing the 1000-point mark. It was a very close race for the top now that B.o.B's Magic, which stays bulleted at No. 2, was only ten points behind Radioactive and Marina & The Diamonds makes a big jump to No. 3 as Greatest Gainer of the week with Shampain, her third Top 10 hit following I Am Not A Robot and Oh No!.

Kings Of Leon Take Over with 'Radioactive'

It was a great run at the top for Katy Perry - and not a bad run at all considering it's her first chart-topper - but things change this week as Teenage Dream falls to No. 3 and Tennessee rockers Kings Of Leon find their way to the summit with Radioactive. This is already the band's third No. 1 on my chart with Closer (2 weeks at #1, 73 weeks on the chart) and Notion (2 weeks at #1, 31 weeks on the chart) being the first two. Both songs are included in their previous album, Only By The Night.

Katy Perry's Lucky 7

This year's favorite girl is not only getting married this weekend! Katy Perry now owns 2010's longest-running #1 song on the chart as Teenage Dream remains steady at the top for a 7th non-consecutive week. I know there's still a few weeks left till '10 is over, but the chances of another song topping this one are slim. If you like facts, the only other song to have stayed at #1 for 7 weeks was Shadowplay by The Killers.

But is this Katy's last week at the summit? It may be, given Kings Of Leon's fast approach to the #2 position with Radioactive, which is the greatest gainer song for a second consecutive week. It only helps that their new album, Come Around Sundown, has just been released. Eight other tracks from that album enter the chart this week with The End leading at #68.
