It is Friday so you know what time it is! PARTY TIME! Oh, and it is also time for the….
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!!!
We begin with the hottest debut video….EVER:
20. May J. – Do Tha, Do Tha (New Entry)
Ladies and gentlemen….her hawtness has returned! After more than a 10 month hiatus since “Here We Go” was on the Countdown, May J has finally come back to me! A full year older and a full year sexier. Good god….this video is hot. Miss Ito…you have officially been replaced. I’m sorry baby! May J is back and the beating of my heart is faster than ever!
19. One Republic feat. Timbaland – Too Late (Last Week #20)
One Republic moves up a modest one spot this week. You know, I remember hearing the original of this song a few months ago and saying “is this The Fray trying to sound good?” but I was wrong. This song is a lot better than anything The Fray ever put out.
18. Soulja Boy – Crank That [Soulja Boy] (Last Week #14)
Ugh. I just found out what “Superman that hoe” means and….ugh. That shit is gross!
17. 2Backka + Bennie K – Home (Last Week #18)
2Backka and Bennie K move up one spot this week as Bennie K looks for their 3rd Top 10 video of 2007. I has just been a while is all. They had the first number one video of 2007 you know?
16. Asian Kung-Fu Generation – After Dark (Last Week #19)
Well, Bleach is beginning to FINALLY kick ass again AND Asian Kung Fu Generation is back after over a year of not doing a damn thing. This video and song is quite the way to come back. I get the stares at work when I watch it but I am used to it.
15. Common feat Lily Allen – Driving Me Wild (Last Week #10)
Common falls a big five spots this week and out of the Top 10. It has been a big year for Common but this video failed to crack the Top 5, which is kind of a shocker. Either way, I still likes it.
14. TI feat. AlfaMega & Busta Rhymes - Hurt (Last Week #17)
The King of the South moves up a big three spots this week and is looking to pick up the slack after the lackluster last video (Big Things Poppin). Too bad he may be in jail to receive his Chachi Award…
13. Yuna Ito – Urban Mermaid (Last Week #15)
Miss Yuna moves up two more spaces as the hopes to get her second number one video of 2007. Man…she is fine. If I could get her and May J and Yuna Ito in the same place at the same time I think the orgasam that would occur would be able to destroy the gravitational force of the planet and send Earth straight into the sun. I’m serious, they are fucking HAWT.
12. Yui - Jam (Last Week #11)
Has Yui fell short of her record FIFTH Top 10 video? It looks like as this one falls a spot short this week.
11. Aqua Timez - Alones (Last Week #10, Four weeks at #1)
Aqua Timez is finally out of the Top 10 after a dominating run at the number one spot. Their new video is out and odds are should be on any week now depending on video play. It isnt as rockin, but sometimes you need a mellow song. Sometimes…
10. Daughtry – Over You (Last Week #13)
Daughtry has his second Top Ten video of the year! It took almost six months but he is still a front-runner for the Best New Artist Chachi Award. Let us not forget about Abingdon Boys School, though. Even still, it is good to see Daughtry back in the top half!
9. Mihimaru GT – Gazen Yeah! (Last Week #5, Two weeks at #1)
So…Mihimaru GT may have the greatest new song ever. And I mean EVER. “I Should Be So Lucky” is the most ass-kicking-est pop song since “Funkytown” and I never say that. But this time it is fucking true. My god I get happy thinking about it. Even still, this song was a strong number one a few weeks ago and is still going strong.
8. NaNa – Movin’ On (Last Week #12)
NaNa makes a HUGE move into the Top 10 with her debut video! So once again, people looked at me crazy as I listened to this on the highway while driving home. Which is expected because things that kick ass are usually misunderstood. NaNa kicks the ass like no other. Best dance break of the year, hands down.
7. L`Arc~en~Ciel – My Heart Draws A Dream (Last Week #7)
So The Arc looks to have stopped to rest for a bit as they hold tight at number seven this week. They have a new video (Daybreak’s Bell) which is actually rather kick ass. We will see how kick ass soon…
6. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #3, One week at #1)
Sowelu and company fall three more spots this week and just out of the Top 5. God…this may be the hottest Countdown ever and we JUST GOT TO THE TOP FIVE!!!
5. Paramore – Misery Business (Last Week #9)
Paramore makes a huge jump into the Top 5 for the first time! Their new video should be out any day now (if not already, I don’t watch MTV2) but until then, Misery Business is giving the competiton the business!
4. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #2)
Mmmm….hells yeah. So the remix of this song with Missy Elliott is pretty good. Missy isnt the best rapper out there but her verse was good enough to make the remix pretty sweet. It isnt enough as Nelly Furtado falls two spots after two weeks in the runner-up spot. We are now down to three…
3. Kanye West feat. T-Pain - GoodLife (Last Week #6)
So Kanye has lugged that worthless ass T-Pain into the Top 3! That is quite a feat to bring his sorry ass this high. However, I like the song that much so it is pretty worth it. Does Kanye have the biggest Album of the Year? Is he the Artist of the Year? He has a good track record, but the artist at number two may have something to say about both of those claims…
2. Yui – Love & Truth (Last Week #3)
Yui is one step away from her third #1 of 2007! John Legend fell just short with “Stereo” a few weeks ago but Yui is on a roll. Her last video hit number two for two weeks before falling but she already has two number one videos so don’t count her out! Also….I have a thing for ladies that play acoustic guitars. With Yui at number two, that means…
1. Alicia Keys – No One (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)
THE QUEEN IS STILL HERE! Alicia Keys spends her second straight week at number one! I am still waiting for the album (odds are it will be out soon if not already) but until then, this video is more than enough. Great song, great video and Alicia’s sexy self equal a second week at the top!
That is all for this week! Tune in next week for the catfight of my dreams! Can Yui take down Alicia for her third number one video? Or will Alicia hold off the “Queen of the Countdown” and extend her reign? Don’t forget about Kanye West, he would love to live the GoodLife at the top once again! I will see you next week!
Well, odds are it is going to be “American Gangster” either Friday night or Sunday afternoon. Oh, and happy birthday Vel!
Chachi Out!
