In this post I will be covering year end ranks #80 through #71. Sit back, relax and enjoy the next songs on the list.
80. "Venus" by Lady Gaga
Peak: 1 (x1)
Weeks: 9
Points: 377
2012-2013/All Time Rank:146
Certification: Silver
After debuting at #42 based on plays from 1 day of tracking, "Venus" shot to #1 the following week. This helped it take many chart achievements including "Biggest Jump to #1" and "Largest Airplay Total (Not in a debut week)". It ranks as the #9 song of the final week of 2013, a fairly hefty drop from the lead it had before.
79. "Counting Stars" by OneRepublic
Peak: 5 (x3)
Weeks:12
Points: 378
2012-2013/All Time Rank:145
Certification: Silver
It became OneRepublic's first ever top 5 hit (peaking at #5 for 3 straight weeks) and most successful song to date. It follows OneRepublic's "If I Lose Myself" as their second straight top 40 hit (the mentioned one peaked at #40). "Counting Stars" is continuing to remain high on the list, spending a 3rd week at #5 in the final week of 2013.
78. "Two Black Cadillacs" by Carrie Underwood
Peak: 19
Weeks:16
Points: 379
2012-2013/All Time Rank:144
Certification: Silver
Following the limited success of "Blown Away" in 2012 and the big success of "Good Girl" (also in 2012), "Two Black Cadillacs" followed as Carrie's 3rd single from her new album. It was a moderate top 20 hit and was able to bank about 380 points (her lowest for a song to date). It received a major push from Country radio and multiple performances helped push this song up the list.
77. "Love Me Back To Life" by Celine Dion
Peak: 13
Weeks:15
Points: 388
2012-2013/All Time Rank:142
Certification: Silver
Celine's comeback single was received positively by most critics (including me) and quickly landed in the top 20 of my chart. It received minimal promotion on Top 40 radio but still managed a #13 peak on my list, a high for Celine. The album's second single, "Incredible (feat. Ne-Yo)", has yet to crack the list's top 50.
76. "Wrecking Ball" by Miley Cyrus
Peak: 14
Weeks:16
Points: 390
2012-2013/All Time Rank:140
Certification: Silver
Though Miley was defiantly appreciated worldwide this year, she struggled on my list. "We Can't Stop" didn't catch on for me (didn't chart) though I might classify it as the "Best Non-Charter of the Year" as I do like it more now. "Wrecking Ball" also initially struggled on my list and started to tumble after obtaining a #21 peak. Toward the final weeks of 2013, it bounced back and obtained a new high of #14 and could eventually reach the top 10. "We Can't Stop" also has a big chance of reaching the list in 2014.
75. "Waiting For the Night" by Nelly Furtado
Peak: 14
Weeks:17
Points: 392
2012-2013/All Time Rank:139
Certification: Silver
Becoming Nelly Furtado's 1st single to reach the top 40, "Waiting For the Night" peaked at #14 on my chart. It lasted 17 weeks on the chart and is the only Nelly Furtado single to reach the chart so far. All other songs from her recently released album failed to reach the weekly top 50.
74. "E.V.O.L." by Marina & the Diamonds
Peak: 13
Weeks:14
Points: 405
2012-2013/All Time Rank:136
Certification: Silver
It became Marina & the Diamonds' 3rd charting single (after 2 top 5's) but became her lowest charting single until her song "State of Dreaming" briefly charted later in 2013. It was released as a special song for Valentine's Day 2013 and wasn't released on any digital services (to purchase) but was limited to Soundcloud and YouTube.
73. "Wing$" by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Peak: 8
Weeks:15
Points: 406
2012-2013/All Time Rank:135
Certification: Silver
Macklemore's 4th straight top 10 single charted for a short and sweet 15 weeks (half the run of his other charting singles). Peaking at #8, it was also his lowest ranking single besides "White Walls" (which peaked at #40). Macklemore has 3 other charting songs higher within the top 100.
72. "Silver Linings (Crazy About You)" by Jessie J
Peak: 9
Weeks:24
Points: 411
2012-2013/All Time Rank:56
Certification: Gold
Last Year (2012): 71 (-1)
Dropping just 1 position from last year's year end chart, "Silver Linings" easily became Jessie J's best performing single (ranking #56 all time) and earned the most points overall (740+). It also ranks as the biggest movie theme song in the history of my chart (beating all other entries by a LONG shot).
71. " Killer" by Sharon Doorson
Peak: 8
Weeks:12
Points: 412
2012-2013/All Time Rank:134
Certification: Silver
Sharon Doorson's highest debuting single in history failed to generate much more than its debuting week (peaked at #8 after a #9 debut). "Killer" lasted a mere 3 months on the chart and peaked on the lower end of the upper tier. It failed to replicate the success of her previous single "Fail In Love" which ranks within the top 50 songs of the year.
Come back for the 4th installment of the rundown!
