  10. Train/Three Doors Down (18 weeks on chart, Peak#10)

Analysis:

Theory Of A Deadman regains the #1 spot with their sentimental rocker about a relationship gone sour.  The song is beginning to grow on me….  AC/DC stays put at #3, I’m still waiting for them to hit the top spot which I think is going to happen in the next two weeks….  Use Me by Hinder might make my Top #5 singles of the year, the song really kicks ass…  Did anybody think Three Doors Down would be still be relevant in today’s music scene? almost ten years after their debut?  They enter the Top 10 with their second single (Train) from their self-titled new album… I’m curious to see if Tesla can make the Top 10 with their new single, I Wanna Live, which is getting a lot of local radio play.  They haven’t had a Top 10 Mainstream Rock hit since 1994’s Mama’s Fool which peaked at #5…  Not much else movement this week.

  4. I’m Not Over/Carolina Liar (21 weeks on chart, Peak#3)
  5. Re-Education (Through Labor)/Rise Against (5 weeks on chart, Peak#5)
  6. The Day That Never Comes/Metallica  (6 weeks on chart, Peak#5)
  7. Let It Die/Foo Fighters (25 weeks on chart, Peak#1)
  8. I Don’t Care/Apocalyptica Featuring Adam Gontier (12 weeks on chart, Peak#8)
  9. Viva La Vida/Coldplay (16 weeks on chart, Peak#1)
  10. Into The Fire/Disturbed (26 weeks on chart, Peak#4)

Analysis:

The Offspring grab the #1 spot with their new single which is their third ever #1, and their first since Hit That topped the Modern Rock charts in 2004.  Personally, I think the song is pretty bland, and it hasn’t gotten much exposure on my local rock radio.  Maybe I’m listening at the wrong times…  Can Weezer get their new song to the top spot and make it two #1 Modern Rock singles from the new album?  Maybe, maybe not!…Rise Against was the biggest mover up three spots to #5 with their new single.  I have to do my homework on these guys as I’m not too aware of what they are all about.
