1. Irreplaceable - Beyonce
It's a fifth week at the top for Beyonce's Irreplaceable. That matches the weeks at the top for her #1 hit last year, "Check On It," but still a ways behind the 8 weeks of "Crazy in Love" or the 9 weeks of "Baby Boy."
2. Fergalicious - Fergie
Fergie gets this week's sales gainer award (again), and is one of only three bulleted singles in the top 10. I'd like to think she could challenge Beyonce for #1, but I think her airplay is decreasing too quickly for that to happen.
8. It Ends Tonight - All-American Rejects
Rising three spots to a new high at #8 is the All-American Rejects with "It Ends Tonight," their second and biggest top 10 hit, surpassing the #9 peak of "Dirty Little Secret."
13. Welcome to the Black Parade - My Chemical Romance
This was a huge hit in the U.K. last fall, and now is becoming one in the U.S., edging up three spots this week to #13.
15. Wind It Up - Gwen Stefani
17. Before He Cheats - Carrie Underwood
19. White & Nerdy - Weird Al Yankovic
A trio of singles rebound this week, moving back up the chart after a decline, probably because of post-Christmas downloads the product of iTunes giftcard buys perhaps (all look like songs teens would buy).
28. Wait a Minute - The Pussycat Dolls
The Pussycat Dolls' fifth single makes a good leap this week, up seven spots to #28.
35. What Hurts the Most - Rascal Flatts
Here's an odd one. The single's almost a year old now, having peaked at #6 last spring. Since June it's been hovering in the lower portion of the top 40, never going higher than #31 or lower than #50. This week it's up 11 spots, the biggest jump since the week before it peaked, and strangely gets this week's Airplay Gainer award. Who's giving this gaining airplay?
