OCTOBER 2006

OCTOBER ROCKED! Wow, October was such an awesome month for music. This month I was introduced to a new hip/hop kid on the block, Lady Sovereign while watching her video "Love Me or Hate Me" on TRL, becoming my numero uno song for October-o. I was hooked. Paris Hilton became the first artist to stay in my top 3 two months in a row with her single "Nothing In This World", climbing one position from 3 to 2. I became addicted to the new country song "Watching You" and it collected 17 plays this month in about a weeks time. I was looking at hits across the world and came across my two 5th place songs, "Can't Get Enough", a middle eastern hit, and "From Paris to Berlin", a European smash hit. Gwen Stefani made her glorious return to the music scene and her new single flew into the 9th place position in just two days. I added yellow arrows to indicate whether or not that song gained or lost plays compared to the previous month. I decided to do that because a song could lose a few spins but still climb a spot or two with songs higher up in the charts having a more dramatic fall in plays. On the other hand a song could gain some plays but still fall a few positions because of other faster rising songs.
