Failure To Launch....Again

Good morning, peeps! I know it has been a few days since I have been up, how have the peeps been? The Duece is doing a little better after a Martin Lawrence-type episode on Tuesday. Minus the running around in the street waving a gun. I had a bat. Luckily, it was a rather uneventful week so there wasn’t much to talk about….

THE PS3!

I almost forgot! So the HUGEST LAUNCH since the 3DO happened last night. Seeing as how Sony only made three of those mother-fuckers it is hard to call it a success. I really don’t think I am going to buy a PS3 for about 6 months. Out of spite. The fact that Nintendo has 4 MILLION Wii’s (Heh, Wii’s) on the market at release while Sony has ONE TENTH OF THAT with a supposedly larger market is fucking clownshoes. Combine that with Gears of War (Which has officially applied for a restraining order against me for…you know…hiding out of its window and making creepy phone calls to. Geez, it’s just like a woman. WHOA!) for the Xbox360 and Sony can officially SUCK MY BLACK BALLS. We as gamers don’t need this shit. Overpriced system (who gives a fuck about Blu-Ray?! After buying the system you cant afford to buy a TV to fucking take advantage of it any-damn-way!) with few good launch games and LAAAAAAME marketing equal a system that wont (or cant since it sold out in 2001) be purchased by me anytime soon. I am getting a Wii and Xbox360. For the same damn price of a PS3. Eat my ass, Sony. Well it seems SOMEONE really wanted a PS3. Enough to shoot a n***a for it. You know, that is fucking sad. No one ever got shot for an Atari Jaguar. Well that one guy, but he shot him to put him out of his misery because if you bought that you were fucking slow. Just sad.

Well it is about that time again, peeps. Last week John Legend topped the chart. Who will top it this week? Let’s find out because it is time for the…

CHACHI TOP 20 COUNTDOWN!!!

Let’s start off with an old favorite making his last run….

20. Bi (Rain) – Move On (Last Week # 14, Plunge of the Week)
So it is time to say goodbye to Bi. However, I have been listening to his new song NON-STOP over the last few days. It is the mad notes. Too bad for this song, I used to really like it. But I’m petty.
19. Pushim, RHYMESTER, HOME MADE KAZOKU, MABOROSHI, May J – I Say Yeah (New Entry)

Now THIS is a jam. I just got the video the other day and needless to say, it is pretty good. The song is on point, and May J is HAWT. She may be taking over Kumi Koda’s spot in my heart. That and the more Home Made Kazoku the better.
18. Evanesence - Call Me When You're Sober (Last Week # 17)
You know; if they have a new video or single I haven’t seen it. I can’t bring myself to buy the album, either. Oh, and Amy Lee is still hawt. Carry on.
17. Young Dro - Rubber Band Banks (Last Week # 16)
Bouncing down a spot is Young Dro. This song just doesn’t have that bounce like Shoulder Lean did. It’s a shame because his verse on the Diddy ATL remix of ‘Come To Me’ is on point. Here is to another single soon.
16. Rascal Flatts - What Hurts The Most (Last Week # 12, #1 for one week)
Still hanging on for dear life is Rascal Flatts. I keep on meaning to get a copy of their album but…I don’t want to explain why I am buying a country album. It was hard enough buying the Yoko Ishida album in public. I can’t afford that kind of scrutiny.
15. Bowling For Soup – High School Never Ends (Last Week #20)
Now THIS is music. Man, this song is my new national anthem. Although I have been saying this same fact for two fricking years it is good to see that the mainstream sees the crap as well. That and poop jokes can still be funny.
14. John Legend – Heaven (Last Week #18)
With the dominance that Save Room has had over my ears, I nearly forgot about the rest of the album. This song and video is pretty sweet. Looks like Mr. Legend has another hit on his hands.
13. Bennie K feat. Tsuyoshi – Rensou Game (Last Week # 8)

Yeah, I’m sad to see this, too. However, Joy Trip has grown on me a little too much and this song has to suffer for it.
12. Game – Let’s Ride (Last Week #16)
So Game is low riding his way up the countdown. I’m not a fan of the constant work with Snoop Dogg but eh, what can you do. He’s everywhere. He is sitting with me right now. Fo shizzle.
11. Bennie K – Joy Ride (Last Week #14)
Just outside the Top 10 and Bennie K is knocking on the door yet again. I just got a non-PV rip of this song on my iPod and yes it is that fucking awesome. Cowboy Troy WISHES he was half this good. Black bastard.
10. Game – It’s Okay (Last Week #7)

So we have our second appearance by Game. Like I said, it has been a slow year for hip hop because there have been no big releases (Aside from T.I. and Diddy. I just shuddered, peeps) and this is the only new rap that is tolerable. Keep it up, Game.
9. Soul’d Out – Starlight Destiny (Last Week # 11)
Diggy Mo and cru in the Top 10, ya’ll! Hells yeah! This song is quite the fricking awesome. Still waiting on the album and just like UVERworld, an American release from Soul’d Out would kick ass right now.
8. Jay Z – Give Me What You Got (Last Week # 10)
I have nothing to say. I like this song. On 11/21/2006 I will be buying his album. I am ashamed.
7. Se7en – I Wanna… (Last Week #5)

Uh-oh. Se7en is falling down to Earth after a stint in the Top 5. Congrats, that in itself is an accomplishment. He also has a new single with La La La. Just saw the video and it is sad. Made me almost cry, if I had a heart and all. We may be seeing it soon.
6. UVERworld - Shamrock (Last Week #3, #1 for three weeks)
Well, the dominance of this song in the Top Five (In the Top Five since the beginning!) has finally ended. Don’t feel too bad, they still have another one and a single WHICH I MUST BUY in stores now. In Japan, anyway.
5. Justin Timberlake feat. T.I. – My Love (Last Week # 9)

Well it was about time. JT and T.I. have leapt into the top five and have their eyes on the top! This song is the mad notes. Nolan pointed out that the album was 3 songs and 19 interludes and he was correct. Aint a song in the bunch, but it still RULES ALL. Oh, and is that Rosario Dawson in the video? Mmmmm….
4. JoJo – Too Little, Too Late (Last Week #5)
Oh, man. JoJo is hanging tough to the Top 5, mainly because every three minutes this song is on somewhere. I mean seriously, it is on all the time. Needless to say, I love the song nonetheless.
3. UVERworld - Kimi no Suki na Uta (Last Week # 4)

UVERworld, back again! With their second song in the Top Six you have to give them props. They are THAT FUCKING GOOD. I mean seriously, even if you don’t understand a word (or even worse understand six or seven like me) you can still rawk out and vibe to Timeless. And this video and song rule all. Every band needs a ballad, right?
2. Nelly Furtado – Maneater (Last Week #2)

Ms. Furtado hangs on at # 2 for the second straight week. I must say, she really wants the top spot. However, she was thwarted like all the competition by a certain Legendary individual….
1. John Legend – Save Room (Last Week #1, #1 for five weeks)

Holy crap, five weeks at #1?! He is a record breaker, peeps! Save Room tops the chart even as Heaven is moving up the Countdown. John has a lock on this bad boy. Congrats, John you have earned it!

Well peeps that is it for this weeks countdown! Can John Legend hold on for an unimaginable SIXTH week? Or will Nelly Furtado FINALLY take her spot at the Top? Or will UVERworld make it 2 for 2 and take #1 with their second video? Find out next week!

Tonight I am going to try to see Happy Feet. Hugh Jackman + penguins + singing = FUCK YEAH. Too bad there will be kids there. They are my nemesis. Oh, and check out #2 Michigan at #1 Ohio State tomorrow! I know I will! Oh, and the new Bond is out today, too! Greatest weekend ever? Maybe, peeps. Maybe. I will be back soon, peeps. Stay up.

Live, Laugh and Love.
