Man, This Was A Scary Week...

Once again it is about that time! It is time for…

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!

We begin with the return of a star after almost two years of waiting!

20. Namie Amuro - WILD (New Entry)

We begin this week with the return of Namie Amuro! It has been a while since she has been on here (She had a short stint with “Funky Town” in 2006) and it is good to see her back with a little bit of dancing. Although I still think she is a tad bit robotic, I can’t deny the song is catchy as hell.
19. YA-KYIM respects KOME KOME CLUB – Kimi Ga Iru Dake De (Last Week #16, Four Weeks at #1)It looks like my baby boos are about to fall off! They have been on here for a LOOOOONG time and it will be a shame to see them go. Still love this video.
18. BoA featuring Sean Garrett – I Did It For Love (New Entry)

HELLS YES! Now I feel bad because I have yet to see the full version of this video. But let’s face it…a minute and a half of BoA is better than anything else I will see all year so I am fine with it. She brings along Sean Garrett who I don’t have anything against but it is all about BoA right now. AND BUY THE ALBUM! If you can find it, I mean…
17. Joe Inoue – Closer (Last Week #15)
You know, Joe Inoue has been on the Countdown just as long as YA-KYIM has? I know, I am shocked too! But he is still hanging on, moving down two spots this week.
16. Jesse McCartney featuring Ludacris – How Do You Sleep (Last Week #19)
J-Mac and Luda move up three big spots this week. Its hard to believe that this is Ludacris’s first time ever on the Countdown. I thought I liked him more.
15. RSP with DA BUBBLE GUM BROTHERS – LA.LA.LA LOVE SONG (Last Week #13, One Week at #1)
RSP x BGB is still hanging on! They fall two spots this week and as of right now are the longest running artists on the Countdown ever! They just passed Yuna Ito’s “I’m Here” and I have to say that is a big accomplishment.
14. Hikaru Utada – Come Back To Me Last Week #17)
Miss Utada is moving on up this week! She moves up three spots this week as I find out her English album isnt due out until fricking MAY. Aint that bout a bitch?
13. NERD – Sooner or Later (Last Week #11)
Pharrell and Co. move down two spots this week. We don’t see enough of these guys lately. After being everywhere for about two years I mean.
12. YA-KYIM respects SEAMO - SA IKOU! (Last Week #9, Two Weeks at #1)
YA-KYIM’s second video finally falls from the Top 10 this week as we move on. It has already been a huge year for these ladies…and it’s only MARCH. I am hoping they get more stuff out to me soon or I will go thorugh withdeawl.
11. Lil Wayne – Prom Queen (Last Week #14)

Weezy moves up three spots this week as he has once again pushed back his rock album. I believe it has been pushed out to June but I could be wrong about that. This song is really growing on me and although I am not home enough to see the video I like what I have seen so far.
10. B.o.B. – I’ll Be In The Sky (Last Week #6)
B.o.B. falls four huge spots this week as we begin the Top Ten! I think 2009 is going to be a big year for this guy as long as we don’t have more 50 Cent dumbfuckery. Which…we will.
9. Abingdon Boys School - STRENGTH (Last Week #12)
ABS is back in the Top Ten! TM leads his crew up three spots this wee and I am PRAYING that this gives us a new album by November. ABS vs. UVERworld for Album of the Year? SIGN ME UP!
8. Shion Tsuji – Sky Chord ~Otona ni Naru Kimi he~ (Last Week #10)

NO! More filler for Bleach after the Pendulum Arc? GOD DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!
7. BoA - Eien (Last Week #7)
BoA stalls a spot this week at number seven with the debut of her latest video and of course her BAD ASS ALBUM! Full review on Sunday.
6. Jesse McCartney – It’s Over (Last Week #4)

J-Mac falls two spots this week as he fell just short from the top spot two weeks ago. He has a new video and a re-release of his last album in stores now. Pick it up!
5. Yuna Ito – Trust You (Last Week #8)
Miss Ito is back! She moves into the Top Five for the first time in over a year with her latest video. I do have to say…I loves me some Yuna Ito. If you don’t know then you don’t know me and I am hurt.
4. UVERworld – 99/100 Damashi no Tetsu (Last Week #3)
The World falls back one spot this week as we inch closer to the top. It has been a huge year album wise for UVERworld as they have released their best album since Timeless after two lackluster efforts. The rock is back! We are down to three…
3. T.I. featuring Justin Timberlake – Dead and Gone (Last Week #5)

T.I. and J-Tim are back together in the Top Three! They move up two big spots this week at T.I. looks for his FIFTH number one video! Can he make it happen? His job just got easier because we have a new champ!
2. BACK-ON – flyaway (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)

BACK-ON falls from the top spot after two weeks of holding it down! It has been a great run as they achieved their first number one video but all good things must end sometime. Great job guys but we have a new reigning king!
1. John Legend – Everybody Knows (Last Week #2, One Week at #1)

A LEGENDARY KING! John Legend is back on top! This is his second number one video from his album Evolver and I have to say that it may not be as good as Once Again but it has its moments. This video being one of them. This also gives him his fifth number one video to boot! Hells yeah!

Well, that is all for this Friday! Tune in next week to see if John Legend can make it two weeks on top! Or if BACK-ON can get back on their throne and make it three weeks? Or will T.I. and J-Tim finally take the championship as a duo? See you in seven to find out!

Well, I think I have dinner tonight with Zach (Who is leaving for Japan for a year this week. Big ups, homie!) and then maybe Sodo’s depending on how I am feeling. Until next time, stay up peeps.
