WORKING FOR THE WEEKEND! But First...

What is up, peeps! It is another Friday which means its time for…

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!

We begin with a new entry from one of hip hops new faces!

20. Charles Hamilton - Loser (New Entry)

We start this week with a young cat in hip hop. Charles Hamilton has been in my ear for a while and this song has become one of my favorites. I am wondering what is up with some album work.
19. B.o.B. – I’ll Be In The Sky (Last Week #15, Plunge of the Week)
Bobby Ray falls four big spots this week as it looks like his run on the Countdown may be coming to an end. He is in a new video with Willy Northpole which so far isn’t half bad.
18. Wonder Girls – NOW (New Entry)

DAMN YOU, JYP! Yoo Bin and the rest of the girls have officially began their plan to get me vanned because they are back. This one is a remake and it looks like my baby boo has put on some curves. ME RIKEY!
17. Keri Hilson featuring Kanye West & Ne-Yo – Knocks You Down (Last Week #19)
Keri Hilson moves up two spots this week as we all saw the episode of South Park this last week and it was damn funny. I personally don’t like fish sticks. Wait, I just got it!
16. BoA - Eien (Last Week #13)
Okay, where in the hell is her album?! I AM THROUGH PLAYING AROUND OVER HERE! I can’t find it anywhere and I know we are in Colorado but damn it there are some Koreans here! Like….12 or so. And they want it as much as I do!
15. Pitbull – I Know You Want Me [Calle Ocho] (Last Week #17)
So um…this video is hot. That is all. Seriously that girl in the Brazil shirt and green skirt will be my baby boo because she is FIY-YINE!
14. Jesse McCartney – It’s Over (Last Week #11)

J-Mac falls three spots this week as we move along. Did anyone see Zac Efron on Interview magazine? Yeah, nothing to do with this but he was HAWT.
13. Namie Amuro - WILD (Last Week #14)
Namie climbs one spot this week and looks to be slowing a bit. It has been a long time since she has been in the Top Ten, too.
12. UVERworld – 99/100 Damashi no Tetsu (Last Week #9)
The World falls three spots and out of the Top 10 this week after getting five videos from their latest album on the Countdown over the last calendar year. Although none went to number one, The World is back!
11. Dev Parade – Bachokkoi!! (Last Week #16, Biggest Mover)

Dev Parade moves up a big five spots this week as they are looking to “bring it” to the Top 10! You know, I think only one Naruto ending has ever made it on the Countdown ever (Home Made Kazoku, I believe) so this is kind of big seeing as the dominance Bleach has had.
10. BACK-ON – flyaway (Last Week #7, Two Weeks at #1)
We start the Top 10 with BACK-ON! They finally broke through and took the number one spot with this video but they fall this week a big three spots. They better give me something new.
9. Jesse McCartney featuring Ludacris – How Do You Sleep (Last Week #12)
More J-Mac! Jesse McCartney is in the Top 10 for the second time in 2009 and I am wondering exactly if J-Tim is going to make a comeback or be the 2009 Lil’ Wayne?
8. John Legend – Everybody Knows (Last Week #5, One Week at #1)
John Legend falls this week as his status of greatest artist on the Countdown has pretty much been solidified. Not if Yui has anything to say about it…BECAUSE SHE IS BACK! More on that in a bit…
7. Hikaru Utada – Come Back To Me (Last Week #8)

Miss Utada climbs up a spot this week with her video for HOPEFULLY the second big release from the East. BoA has disappeared from record stores and this song is actually playing in some places. NICE!
6. BoA featuring Sean Garrett – I Did It For Love (Last Week #10)
Speaking of BoA, she moves up four big spots this week and is right outside of the Top Five once again. WHERE IS THE FULL VERSION OF THIS VIDEO! Stop pissing me off, Steve and make it happen!
5. T.I. featuring Justin Timberlake – Dead and Gone (Last Week #2)
T.I. falls three spots this week to number five after two weeks at the runner up spot. Tip is challenging John Legend and Kanye West for the title of King of the Countdown and he will be gone for a while which means someone else may be able to take his place…
4. Lil Wayne – Prom Queen (Last Week #6)
…Like Young Weezy? Lil Wayne moves up higher than he has ever been as he takes the number four spot this week. With the Young Money video almost a lock for the Countdown could this be the year of Wayne…again? We are down to three!
3. Abingdon Boys School - STRENGTH (Last Week #4)

A familiar face is back! TM Revolution has Abingdon Boys School just two steps away from their second number one video! I am so hoping that the album comes soon because…IT’S FRICING TM, THAT’S WHY!
2. Shion Tsuji – Sky Chord ~Otona ni Naru Kimi he~ (Last Week #3)

YUI IS BACK! Yes, I know Shion Tsuji is a step away from her first number one video ever but…YUI IS BACK! ON FULL METAL ALCHEMIST NO LESS! You know my love/hate with that show (So…the MOVIE IS THE ENDING?!) but damn it I AM SO READY! Just got the first episode, too. Shion is doing a great job, but another lady has topped the chart this week once again!
1. Yuna Ito – Trust You (Last Week #1, Three Weeks at #1)

Yuna Ito spends her third week on top! You know my love for Miss Ito so I won’t even go into it. But she has been dominating so far and looks to not let up anytime soon. Although her song with Spontania is just as awesome, this song is one of my favorites. Congrats!

That is all for this week! Can Yuna Ito make it a full month on top? Or will rookie Shion Tsuji make it the FIFTH Bleach song to make it to numbe one? Or will Abingdon Boys School usurp Aqua Timez as the premier J-Rock group of the Countdown? See you in seven to find out!

Well, odds are it is the movies tonight and then maybe some soju but probably not. I need to get some sleep because I am LACKING. Until next time, stay up peeps.
