Mother Nature....Eh, Screw It.

Yes it is another Friday and you know what that means. Its time for the…

Chachi Top 20 Video Countdown!

Its been a while, and there are a few new videos out, so here is another installment of…

Bubbling Under

Maroon 5 – Makes Me Wonder

Okay, I will be the first to admit that Maroon 5 got REAL annoying REAL quick with their creepy ass song ‘She Will Be Loved’. However, I initially DID like that video (albeit again creepy) and Sunday Morning KICKED ASS. I just saw this video this morning and I likes it. It may be on here soon! Next…shit.

DJ Khalied w/Akon, T.I., Rick Ross, Fat Joe, Baby & Lil Wayne – We’re Taking Over

Fuck. Everyone on here (aside from Baby who is embracing his Diddy role as # 1 talker) is tolerable and T.I. and Lil Wayne are two of my favs. Then you have Akon, who tries his damnedest to kill this song and video. Even still, I have been jamming to this for about two months now and it is about time there was a video for this! Finally, we have a group that actually has a #1 video on the Chachi Top 20 to their credit…

Beat Crusaders – Ghost

Hey, welcome back, guys! I haven’t heard much from them since Tonight, Tonight, Tonight from last year which went to #1 during September (NDK, fool!). I am liking this song and the video has an Evansesence feel to it. Welcome back! Now, onto the Countdown!

20. TERIYAKI BOYZ feat Kanye West – I Still Love H.E.R. (Last Week #16)
After a pretty good run, the Boyz look on the verge of falling out of the Top 20. I still like this video, but I am waiting for a little something new from both camps. Especially Kanye, seeing as how he has toned down the stupidity. Also, pick up Cosmicolor from M-Flo! It is some good stuff and Crystal Kay is HAWT.
19. Rascal Flats – Stand (New Entry)

Yes, the Gang has returned. Okay, before you say anything eat my ass. I like Rascal Flats on my own terms, not shoved down my throat like ‘What Hurts The Most’ was last year. It was in a PSA about bro rape last year. Think about the lyrics and that is funny. Even still, the have a Number One video to their credit (yes, it was Number One on the Countdown for a week) and I for one am happy to see them back on here.
18. Namie Amuro – Funky Town (Last Week #20)
Yeah, I likes the Namie. Just got the single from Jpop N Kpop and I actually like the B-side more than the single. Even still…she has some legs on her I tell you what. And that is enough to get her to move up two spots.
17. May J feat. VERBAL – Here We Go (Last Week #14)
Mmmmm…give me some more May J now!
16. Kumi Koda – Get Up & Move! (Last Week #19)
Yes, Kumi and I are back on speaking terms. Sometimes it’s best to hash things out and remain friends. As thanks for our reconciliation, she dances up three spots this week.
15. Evanescence – Lithium (Last Week #12)
So I just got the Korn Unplugged album. Not gonna lie, I hated the whole ‘nu-metal’ movement and really didn’t like Korn at all. But stripped down and adding the hot as hell Amy Lee on vocals it is rather tolerable. And they made Radiohead sound cool. Yeah, I said it. I don’t get Radiohead. Except for the fact they suck ass. As does Coldplay. Who wants some of me?! Bring it bitches!
14. Namie Amuro – Baby Don’t Cry (Last Week #7, #1 for three weeks, Plunge of the Week)

I cry a little and I cant help it. I really dig this song and the video was so simple it was awesome. It would make me cry if I wasn’t such a jerk.
13. K-OS – Sunday Morning (Last Week #15)
So this song was on the radio yesterday (not sure what station, they all kind of blend together) last week while I was looking for the weather report. That is good because this song is bad ass and the video is pretty damn good to boot.
12. Monkey Majik feat m-flo – Picture Perfect (Last Week #13)
Monkey Majik is slowly but surely making their way into the Top 10. Just like the song, the video has grown on me since the first time I saw it and now it is one of my favorites. I gotta get more of their stuff.
11. Yuna Ito – I’m Here (Last Week #17, Biggest Mover)

Yes! Yuna Ito makes the biggest jump this week and lands just outside of the Top 10! This video kicks ass and the live performances I am seeing make me have a brand new infatuation. Move over, May J. Yuna Ito is the object of my obsession! Onto the Top 10!
10. Three Days Grace – Never Too Late (Last Week #11)
We begin the Top 10 with a little bit of RAWK for your face. Three Days Grace has their first official Top Ten video with this one. I wonder if they have a new album out soon. Didn’t One-X come out about a year ago?
9. Hinoi Team – Dancin’ and Dreamin’ (Last Week #6)
It is a sad day for Hinoi Team. It all breaks down that….you have to be of age to make it into the Top Five I guess. May J and Yui made it (Both 19. Ground rule double!) but young ladies…I CANNOT go to prison. Even for Rina. God, I hate myself.
8. Home Made Kazoku – Nagaraboshi ~Shooting Star~ (Last Week #9)
HMK has a new video out! Just as this video was making some moves, too! As soon as I get it I will let you know whether it rocks the box or not.
7. Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend (Last Week #10)

So I just got the version of this song with a Japanese hook/refrain. Dare I say, it actually improves on the original? Because I’m gonna say it. Avril moves up three big spots for the Top 10’s biggest mover this week. I am considering checking out the album.
6. UVERworld – Zero no Kotae (Last Week #8)
Takuya and the boys creep ever so close to the Top Five once again! I actually have the first album I listened to from beginning to end since Common’s Be album. Great work on BUGRIGHT, guys! Now, off to the Top Five
5. Game feat. Kanye West – Wouldn’t Get Far (Last Week #4)
The Game falls back a spot but still stays in the Top 5 with this vid. So after Tony ‘The Tot Toppler’ Yayo’s attack on Jimmy Rosemond’s son The Game has fired back and threatened violence on Tony and Fiddy. Part of me really wants to see Fiddy get what’s coming to him Planet of the Apes style. Yet, most of me hates this whole ‘hip hop feud’ bullshit. The only good hip-hop feud was Roxanne Shante and Whodini. Albeit I was like four, but still.
4. Yui – CHE.R.RY (Last Week #5)
Well look who is back! Welcome home, baby. I missed you! Yui inches closer to her second Number One by flip flopping with The Game. This video is awesome and she is just so damn cute! Oh, and her album came out last week and it was SO WORTH THE DAMN WAIT! Great stuff! Now, to the Top Three! The same trio, but were there any changes?
3. Daughtry – It’s Not Over (Last Week #1, two weeks at #1)

You bet your ass there were changes. After two weeks at #1, including a tie with John Legend, Daughtry lets go of the top spot. Oh, American Idol updates! Sanjaya still sucks but is trying so hard, Jordin is looking HAWT and America sent home Gina. Why I am not sure but it proves once again that voting doesn’t work. Douchebrawl proved it. The 2000 election proved it. The blue M&M proved it (MAGENTA, BITCHES!). So with Daughtry at #3, do we have a new Number One video?
2. Bennie K – 1001 Nights (Last Week #3)

Oooohhhh, so close! Bennie K makes a bid for their second #1 video! Joy Trip knocked Heaven from the #1 spot in January; can Yuki and Cico once again rain on a certain Legends’ parade? We’ll see! Until then, you know who is Number One…
1. John Legend – PDA (We Just Don’t Care) (Last Week #1, two weeks at #1)

John Legend is one week away from tying T.I. for the most weeks a #1 combined (5 weeks for Save Room, 2 for Heaven and now 2 for this video for a total of 9 to T.I.’s 10 weeks)! Last years winner for the Artist of the Year Chachi is making another bid for that award with a rather dominating performance in 2007! Congrats, John!

Well, that is all for this week peeps! Can John Legend hold on to the Top Spot for a third week in a row? Or will Bennie K secure the crown for the second time? Don’t forget about Daughtry, it may not be over for him at the top! Tune in next Friday same Chachi time, same Chachi site!

Chachi Out.
