It is another Friday so you know what that means! It’s time for…
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We have TWO HUGE DEBUTS this week and we begin with a duo that picked up “Video of the Year” honors last year!
20. Kanye West featuring Young Jeezy – Amazing (New Entry)
We begin with the first of our two HUGE DEBUT VIDEOS! Kanye West has returned to the video world and Young Jeezy returns the favor for Kanye’s excellent verse in “Put On.” This video is well…epic. Seeing this on IMAX would probably blow my damn mind.
19. UVERworld – 99/100 Damashi no Tetsu (Last Week #15)
The World looks to be spending its last week on the Countdown as they once again failed to take the top spot with their latest. Will they break the streak with their next one?
18. YUI – Again (New Entry)
MY BABY BOO IS BACK! After a pretty long hiatus (Longer than usual, anyway) YUI has returned to me! Even better it is from the new FMA: Brotherhood series which looks awesome. She stopped doing the squinty eyes thing too…which makes her hella hot.
17. Charles Hamilton - Loser (Last Week #18)
Mr. Hamilton moves up a spot this week but seems to have some slowing momentum going on. Either way, anyone pick up the Asher Roth yet?
16. BACK-ON – flyaway (Last Week #13, Two Weeks at #1)
BACK-ON falls another three spots this week as I am now kind of itching for a new single from these guys. Get on it!
15. Young Money feat Lil Wayne – Every Girl (Last Week #19)
Young Money and Weezy move up a big four spots this week and look to be gaining some momentum. Here is looking for a clean version of the single. And you all know why…
14. Keri Hilson featuring Kanye West & Ne-Yo – Knocks You Down (Last Week #16)
Slowly but surely, Keri Hilson is moving up! She moves up two spots this week but it is all about baby steps.
13. John Legend – Everybody Knows (Last Week #10, One Week at #1)
John Legend falls from the Top Ten this week and looks to have quieted down since being everywhere after Obama got elected. Part of me is happy; I saw the man in a Jack In The Box commercial I think.
12. Namie Amuro - WILD (Last Week #11)
Miss Namie falls a spot this week after coming so close to returning to the Top 10. She hasn’t been there since “Baby Don’t Cry” which was like…March of 2006? Man, that has been a while.
11. T.I. featuring Justin Timberlake – Dead and Gone (Last Week #8)
Tip and Tim fall from the Top 10 this week as well. TI has had a good average of getting videos at number one but this one just fell short. Seems like when you put these two together…they are no John Legend and Andre 3000. I am just saying.
10. Pitbull – I Know You Want Me [Calle Ocho] (Last Week #12)
Mr. 305 is in the Top 10! It is his first time out and he is showing everyone else how you do it! Oh, and the woman in the Brazil shirt is still hot. Had to check…and make sure…she was still there. Now I need a minute.
9. Yuna Ito – Trust You (Last Week #5, Three Weeks at #1)[Plunge of the Week]
After holding the Countdown hostage for three weeks, Miss Ito falls a huge four spots this week! Dare I say it…we may have something new from Yuna soon! God damn it 2009 is the best year ever!
8. Dev Parade – Bachokkoi!! (Last Week #9)
Dev Parade moves up one spot this week after moving up at a rapid pace the last two weeks. With new Naruto openings and ending themes could it be over for them already?
7. Wonder Girls – NOW (Last Week #14, Biggest Mover)
So to all you people calling Yoobin “chunky” and “fat” all I have to say is YOU GO TO HELL! Yoobin looks DAMN GOOD (I would so love to take her to dinner and a movie) and you need to shut the hell up. To prove it, they move up a huge SEVEN SPOTS this week! Take THAT haters.
6. Jesse McCartney featuring Ludacris – How Do You Sleep (Last Week #7)
J-Mac moves up another spot this week and is looking to have his second Top Five video in two months! Pretty good run for him and supposedly the track “Body Language” has a remix with T-Pain which…I am not sure about.
5. Lil Wayne – Prom Queen (Last Week #3)
After moving all the way up to number three last week, Lil Wayne falls two spots this week but stays in the Top Five. With another video on the Countdown and supposedly a second single from his delayed rock album coming soon, he should be fine.
4. Hikaru Utada – Come Back To Me (Last Week #6)
Just outside of the Top Five this week is Hikaru Utada! She is up two spots this week and has slowly crept up the Countdown in a stealth-like fashion. Pretty low key for her first time out. We are down to three!
3. Abingdon Boys School – STRENGTH (Last Week #2)
ABS has been thwarted again! They peaked at number two last week but fall a spot this week and fall short from the top yet again. Luckily, they are back an hopefully will be rocking our faces again soon.
2. Shion Tsuji – Sky Chord ~Otona ni Naru Kimi he~ (Last Week #1, One Week at #1)
After a week on top, Shion falls to the runner up spot! It was a long journey and she finally made it but she wasn’t able to stay long. Also, SCANDAL’S NEW “BLEACH” OPENING KICKS THE ASS! But until that video comes, we have a new number one video!
1. BoA featuring Sean Garrett – I Did It For Love (Last Week #4, One Week at #1)
BoA is back on top! This gives her two number one videos in 2009, tying her with YA-KYIM! This is arguably my favorite song on her album and it has been my favorite song for a few weeks now. Now the video is number one! Let the year of BoA continue!
That is all for this week! Come back next Friday to see if BoA can hold on for a second week! Or will Shion Tsuji take back her throne? Or will Abingdon Boys School show their strength and leapfrog back into dominance? See you in seven to find out!
Slow weekend as I am going to hopefully pick up the BoA CD at Borders and may go downtown if anyone is interested. Until next time, stay up peeps.
