Chart Highlights: Katy Tiz Advances, Shermanology Debuts High

Katy Tiz pushes 2-1 with newest single "Red Cup". In an extremely competitive week, the single claims the penthouse position edging out both Robin Thicke and Macklemore. It becomes the singer's first ever #1 after the release of two other singles, "Famous" and "Heart".

Robin Thicke advances 3-2 with worldwide smash hit "Blurred Lines (feat. T.I. and Pharrell Williams)". It was edged out of the top position by Katy Tiz this week, although original estimates predicted the reverse.

Macklemore's "Can't Hold Us (feat. Ray Dalton)" slides 1-3 after occupying the top slot for a third consecutive week. Macklemore's previous hit "Thrift Shop (feat. Wanz)" ruled for 4 weeks. Before reaching the top position, the song set the record for "Most Weeks at #2", advancing over "Sweet Nothing (feat. Florence Welch)" by Calvin Harris, which spent 8 consecutive weeks stalled in the runner-up position.

Emmelie De Forest holds at #4 with "Only Teardrops", after two weeks atop the tally. It is just the fourth Eurovision entry to crack the list, and is the second to hit #1 on the tally. Last year's winner (Loreen's "Euphoria") debuted at #1, and became the #15 song of 2012, and the #7 of 2012-2013 (so far). To date it has spent at least 1 week at every position in the top 5.

Avril Lavigne's "Here's To Never Growing Up" holds at #5 for a fourth consecutive week. 11 weeks ago, the single became the 6th #1 debut in our chart's history. To date it has spent 12 weeks in the top 5.

Kelly Clarkson's third nonconsecutive top 10 single, "People Like Us" holds at #6 in its 21st week on the chart. Clarkson previously landed at #1 for a single week with "What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)", and #8 with follow up single "Dark Side". If it reaches the top 5 next week, it would set the record for "Longest Rise to the Top 5". This record is currently held by "How to Be a Heartbreaker", which ultimately stopped at #5.

Kat DeLuna stalls at #7 with "Stars" due to another sharp decline in airplay. Despite its continued descend, it manages to stay in the top 10 for an eighth consecutive week.

Loreen bullets 9-8 with her latest worldwide hit "We Got the Power". It became her fourth non-consecutive top 10 single after "Euphoria" peaked at #1(x3), "My Heart Is Refusing Me" peaked at #1, and "Crying Out Your Name" stopped at #3.

Sharon Doorson dips 8-9 with her new single "Killer". It had a monster first week, and was additionally fueled by the release of Doorson's debut album also titled "Killer". Despite its large launch, and continued success throughout its second week, the song took a major slash in airplay. Will this be the end?

Rounding out the top 10, Mia Martina moves 11-10 with "La La..." after being stuck in the #11 position for four consecutive weeks. The song was able to crack the top 10 due to its official release on iTunes and other digital media sites.

Lower in the top 20 Shermanology claims the Hot Shot Debut with solo single "The Only Way".
