Woo for Mariah Carey! All over

Yes, she's tentatively my all-time fave artist. <3

Yes, Tripolis's countdown actually made me re-visit those Gaga songs and Madonna and Britney were just random visitors.

Yes, it's definitely one of my all-time faves from the Original Idol as well.

Glad to see "Telephone" and "Dance In The Dark". Both will be charting considerably high in my countdown and are definitely one of my many favourite Gaga songs. Pound The Alarm has grown on me again, so it's definitely gonna have a steep rise on my chart this week. As usual, all the Mariah entries are great and I definitely hope to see "We Belong Together" or "Butterfly" rebounding again. That Britney track is a true classic and is definitely one of the most defining moments of a career ever in music history in my opinion, as the choreography, the music video and everything else is just perfect and was a perfect opener to Britney. I'm hoping "Good Time" don't fall out of the top 10 just yet - it's definitely a summer smash and hopefully it can maintain its momentum on your chart. "My Life Would Suck Without You" is one of my favourite Kelly singles ever and it's definitely a worthy #1 for her.
"Good Time" may actually be exit the Top 10 today but I'm sure you'll still enjoy the chart as the MC domination continues.
I actually have you to thank for making me listen to those Gaga songs again. Katy Perry almost re-entered too though she very well may manage to do so today.

I'm up for Lana,
i'd stalk her everywhere in the world. 
Great re-entries today, my favourite being Dance In The Dark, one of her best songs IMO.
Ooh, gurl, you is a stalker?

I just meant that we find her and convince her to bump up the release date for one of my fave songs of the year. You obsessed though. <3
Kidding, of course!Yes, "Dance In The Dark" is her best non-single EVER! I'm still beyond miffed that it didn't get a proper single release. It had the potential to be huge!

Not bad.

Glad you're enjoying the chart. A Queen B song is returning so I hope I can improve on that "not bad".

Yes, re-entries are the best part of any Akini Top 20.

Nice to see Die Another Day at 20! Haha never thought it charted before. Also all this Mariah!

I'm glad The Roof had a good chart run, did it grow on you a lot?
"Die Another Day" actually hit #1 on my chart last Fall. I love the song but the video's even more impressive. And gurl, you are so late to the parade. I stan for "The Roof (Back In Time)" now.

woah, a nearly flawless chart today! I'm a bit bummed to see Mariah fall from No. 1, but there's so many wonderful re-entries to distract me: "Telephone", "Dance In The Dark" (glad to know you know the actual lyrics now

), MLWSWY, "Dreamlover", and more! <3 <3 <3
"Summertime Sadness" = well, the pre-chorus (the
"oh, my god, I feel it in the air..." bit) is probably the catchiest thing I've heard from Lana so far...but, and I think I've said this before, it really seems to be her voice that puts me off. it's not that she's totally talentless, I watched a live clip of this one too and she's not entirely tone deaf or anything...her voice is just...totally unappealing.

"Lucky Ones" = it's better than "Video Games", I can hear why you'd recommend this one...but I still don't get what would possess anyone to WANT to listen to her. I guess she's the...anti-Adele right now? America (radio, the population in general) wrongfully snubs a lot of promising acts all the time...but I'm so thankful that Lana fever hasn't hit here yet. *knock on wood*
MC is coming for the top spot today and it's a track that's familiar with being #1 too.
Ooh, I'm so glad you checked out the Lana songs! I don't really consider Lana the "anti-Adele" and I think her voice is really haunting though many of her detractors comment that it's "boring, dull, uninviting, appalling". She makes me feel whatever it is she's singing and I think that's the mark of a truly great artist. I never expected you to like her but I'm
very appreciative of you at least giving her a chance. <3
Gurl, don't knock on that wood just yet (unless of course we're discussing a different kind of wood). Sexual innuendo aside, "Summertime Sadness" is going to come for wigs, you mark my words. I want #1 everywhere: the US, the UK, Australia, Germany, Canada, Mars, Venus, planets that we don't know exist. I stan hard for that masterpiece.

That smells like something Kanye would say.

Glad you love it too though. <3
abi wrote:"Telephone"! What makes you start to play the song again?
Tripolis! It's one of his poll options in his Gaga/Katy/Adele countdown so I listened to it again on repeat and couldn't stop dancing.
