Chart Wrap: September 2nd, 2013

Hot 100 Avicii Has won radio this week and entered the Hot100 at #20 with his new single You Make Me. An unprecedented achievement considering he still holds the number one spot with Wake Me Up. One Republic has debuted at #28 with Something I Need, who have, let’s say, ‘pulled an Avicii’ as their previous single Counting Stars is still within the top 5. Katy Perry’s Roar has moved up 5 places to #2 its third week in, could she be the one to finally steal 1^st place from the greedy Swede? This chart wrap says, Yes. Burn by Ellie Goulding and Talk Dirty by Jason Derulo and 2 Chainz round out the top 5. Notable movers this week include NoNoNo’s new tune Pumping Blood up to #34 from #66 the previous week, Paramore’s Ain’t No Funcontinues to rise from #36 up to #24, Krewella’s Live For The Nighthas also breached the top 50 after being added to high rotation across most of the Nova stations; they currently sit at #41. Live For The Night is the 3^rd single from their forthcoming album Get Wet, due for release later this month. Aria Singles Katy Perry has held strong for a second week in the top spot withRoar, following last week’s MTV VMA performance. The Cedric Gervais treatment of Summertime Sadness was clearly a winner for Lana Del Ray as it’s earned her a new peak position this week at #3, pat on the back Lana and Cedric. Jason Derulo and 2 Chainz’ Talk Dirty has managed to secure second place mirroring their success in the TMN Hot100 and Avicii is down to #4. Lorde’s The Love Club EPis still hanging in the top 5, an amazing achievement from everyone’s favourite Kiwi.
