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.

'Party Forever' by Mateo Amarei

Like me, you've probably never heard of Mateo Amarei. Well, he's one of the many independent artists that you can find through the social networks and he so happened to tweet today about one of his songs titled Party Forever, a very nice pop/dance song with a great hook. I'd say the style would be in the same vein as Jason Derülo or Taio Cruz. I'm not sure if the "party all the time" part was influenced by Sharam's Party All The Time, but it works. It's a catchy song so I say DOPE.

5 weeks for 'Teenage Dream' but Usher closely follows

It's week number 5 for Katy Perry and her song Teenage Dream, which not only regains its bullet but also goes Gold after surpassing 500 points. But close behind are Usher and Jay-Z with Hot Tottie which is the Greatest Gainer track for a second week in a row. Will this be the song to break Perry's reign?

Interpol gets 3 spots in the top 10 this week as All Of The Ways and The Undoing both enter at #6 and #7 respectively, while Lights stays at #3. Jason Derülo inches up two spots with Ridin' Solo (#4) and La Vida Bohème returns to their #9 peak with Danz!.

The Chart retuns and Katy Perry still leads

Now that the break's over it's time to get back to business. And it's not like things have changed much, actually. At least not for Katy Perry and her Teenage Dream, which stays strong at #1 for a fourth week. This would've been her seventh week at the top if I had published all the September charts, but that didn't happen. Still not a bad lead for a female on what's been a male dominated year. The last female singer to top the chart was Ke$ha with the song Tik Tok which started a 3-week dominance at the end of January.
