1. Irreplaceable – Beyonce
It’s 7 weeks at #1 for Beyonce’s “Irreplaceable.” It’s run at the top is now 1 week shy of the 8 weeks she had at the top for her first solo hit, “Crazy in Love.” Collectively, she’s now spent 29 weeks at #1 as a solo artist, 12 weeks more than the 17 weeks at #1 she’s had with Destiny’s Child.
4. Say It Right – Nelly Furtado
Nelly Furtado continues her ascent with “Say It Right,” up one to #4 this week. The song is currently #2 on the top 40 airplay chart and climbing. As of this writing, it’s #1 on iTunes.
9. Welcome to the Black Parade – My Chemical Romance
My Chemical Romance scored their first top 10 hit last week at #9 with “Welcome to the Black Parade,” which holds steady this week. The band’s previous best was the #33 peak of “Helena” in 2005.
12. What Goes Around … Comes Around – Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake moves up nine spots this week to #12 with “What Goes Around…,” the third FutureSex/LoveSounds single. “Sexyback” hit #1 in September; “My Love” hit #1 in November. “What Goes Around…” looks like it’s on that trajectory as well. If he keeps this pace up, expect another top 10 hit around early April, and probably another in the summer too.
31. The Sweet Escape – Gwen Stefani (featuring Akon)
Gwen Stefani gets the Sales Gainer designation this week for “The Sweet Escape” and enters the top 40 (up 22 spots) at #31. This is her sixth top 40 hit as a soloist, although she has a little help here from Akon, who’s currently #2 with “I Wanna Love You” and #5 with “Smack That.”
