What is up, peeps! It is Friday so you know what that means! Its time for…
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
Let’s get started this week with a former #1 video!
20. nobodyknows+ - Hero’s Come Back! (Last Week #17, Four weeks at #1)
It looks like the former Countdown Kings are on their way out. Naruto update! Zach pointed out something very interesting: those guys never get any damn stronger (aside from Sasuke, and he had to go all Sith to get there). They train every damn week for 218 episodes and they have the same three moves, just now with uber-cool flash effects. Laaaaaame. The Power Rangers got new Zords once a month, but Tommy’s dad TOTALLY owned a dealership. That is four nerd references in one review. Yep, I’m single for a reason.
19. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (New Entry)
Jermaine Stewart lives! I just downloaded this song (I cant find the album in stores anywhere) and needless to say, this will be a ringtone for one of none females that call me because I sure as hell wont put it on a dude. I like Gym Class Heroes (Although “Cupid’s Chokehold” worked my fucking nerves) and anyone that covers an 80’s classic automatically gets some play.
18. Yuna Ito – I’m Here (Last Week #13, One week at #1)
*Sniff* My baby is almost gone! After the longest run in history (topping May J’s “Here We Go” and Nelly Furtado’s “Say It Right”) Yuna Ito looks to end her FIVE MONTH RUN on the Countdown with this former #1. Here is hoping for a new video soon!
17. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #20)
Okay, this song finally has stopped annoying me. I just heard the “Cant Tell Me Nothing” mixtape and all I can say is that his album may not be too bad. “Late Registration” kind of fell off but “Graduation” looks like it may be up to “College Dropout” levels of great. Also, someone took Cassie off the milk carton and put her in this video. I guess I would plunder that.
16. Enrique Iglesias – Do You Know (Last Week #15)
Enrique falls a spot this week with his latest video. Something about Enrique in Spanish says…”stalker”. Which means he is my fucking idol because stalking is how I roll. Ask Kimmy, I’m in her living room right now.
15. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #18)
So I got the Live Earth performance of Abingdon Boys School (YES!) only to find the file had no fucking sound. How is THAT for defeating the god damn purpose?! Even still, this video kicks ass.
14. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 16)
AI is slowly making her way up the Countdown, moving up a modest two spots this week. She also had a performance at Live Earth (She performed “I Wanna Know” but I would have preferred “Uh Uh” but you cant win them all) which HAD THE DAMN SOUND! Good stuff.
13. Orange Range – Ika Summer (Last Week #10)
Mark it down: 7/25/2007. Orange Range’s Greatest Hits album “Range” hits stores. Can I get a hell yeah?!
12. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #14)
Yay! Hearts Grow moves a little closer to the Top Ten this week! So back on this whole Naruto thing. Can anyone tell me if the Hurricane Chronicles (or Shippuuden, I guess) is manga based or just made up? I stopped reading after a while and if it is I want to get caught up. Eh, just curious.
11. Gackt – RETURNER ~Yami no Shuuen~ (Last Week #12)
Does it get any hotter?! Gackt is one step away from the Top Ten! I finally found an episode of the show this song is from/video is based on. All I can say is that I have NO IDEA what the hell is going on because it isn’t subtitled. Doesn’t matter, he is still teh hawt and this video is bad ass.
10. Daddy Yankee feat. Fergie – Impacto (Last Week #8)
No es bueno! Daddy Yankee seems to be unable to carry the mannish Fergie any farther as they fall back two spots this week to begin the Top Ten. You know, I was looking at some old video of “Kids Incorporated” and all I can say is that Fergie almost resembled something…human. Too bad that ended quick.
9. Common – The People (Last Week #11)
Common jumps two spots this week to get is first Top Ten video! This is big because for the first time ever there are more than two hip hop songs in the upper echelon! Could this be the start of a trend? Fiddy and No Talent Nelly moved their albums back so maybe…hip hop won’t suck for a few months.
8. Maroon 5 – Makes Me Wonder (Last Week #5, Three weeks at #1)
Maroon 5 falls out of the Top Five for the first time since May this week. Anyone else think the rest of the band looks a tad bit like the homeless? I’m just saying.
7. Foxxi MisQ feat. Miss Monday – Party Booty Shake (Last Week #9)
The ladies of Foxxi MisQ continue their run this week of having TWO videos in the Top Ten. I honestly prefer this video over “Luxury Ride” because…yeah the outfits fit a little snugger. Shut the hell up, I NEED THIS!
6. T.I. – Big Things Poppin’ (Last Week #7)
So I just listen to “TI vs. TIP” the whole way through earlier this week. Aside from a few annoying bits (Some “booty butt cheeks” rhymes, whatever Eminem was talking about in “Touchdown”) it was actually one of the better albums I have heard. His style is distinitive, but not repetitive (“King” worked my nerves with that. All songs were an extension of another). Because of that, T.I. moves up a spot.
5. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #6)
We are into the Top Five and look who it is! It’s everyone’s favorite J-Rock band (not named Glay, I mean)! Or at least mine. Hyde and company are looking quite good right now as this song and video have a perfect summer flair. Let’s keep on moving!
4. Abingdon Boys School – Howling (Last Week #3, One week at #1)
TM and the Boys hang on ever so slightly this week, falling only one spot. Oh, has “Darker Than Black” been liscensed? I cant find the new episodes anywhere (the last one I have is I think Episode 7) and I just started watching it again. I’m up to episode two!
3. Foxxi MisQ feat Zeebra – Luxury Ride (Last Week #4)
Mmmm…more Foxxi MisQ. The ladies bring Zeebra along as they make it to the Top Three. Um…all I have is that they are sexy. Screw that, that’s all I NEED TO SAY. Gimme some of that.
2. Yui – My Generation (Last Week #2) [Three Weeks at #2]
For the third straight week, Yui holds on the runner up position with “My Generation”. Time for the Bleach update! It’s filler. A lot of filler, at least for the next month or so (at a minimum the next three episodes) which is good and bad. The filler has actually been rather funny (Hitsugaya playing soccer, Ikkaku in the kendo club, etc.) but the Shonen Jump Weekly chapters are kicking SO MUCH ASS that I cant wait to see what they do animated. Eh, no big deal. Well, with Yui at #2, it looks like #1 is…
1. UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #4, Two weeks at #1)
I choose yooooou! UGK and Outkast hold on for a second straight week at the top! Where in the hell is UGK’s album at? Did I miss it or was it pushed back? Anyway, this video is tight bangin (T’Sheezy in the house!) and maybe the only one that can outdo Abingdon Boys School in a kilt is Andre Three Stacks. Even still, they hold it down again.
That is all for this week! Can UGK make it three weeks in a row? Or will Yui FINALLY capture her third #1 video of 2007? Or can Foxxi MisQ ride to the top spot? Tune in next week to find out!
So I will be reviewing Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix either tomorrow or Sunday, mainly because I am exhausted after fighting off that sinus infection (which is still kicking my ass in the mornings) and didn’t to the Countdown last night. A bit of a spoiler: Steve Nash isn’t in it. NBA joke…bite me. My blog, my rules. Until next time, stay up.
Chachi Out.
