What is up, people! It is another Friday so you know what that means! It is time for the staple…
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!!
We start with the return of a legend!
20. L`Arc~en~Ciel – DRINK IT DOWN (New Entry)
Hyde and Company are back, baby! After two Top Ten videos (including the chart topper “SEVENTH HEAVEN”) The Arc has returned with a new single and video. Nowhere near as visual as their previous three from 2007…but its Hyde. And he is looking SUPERFINE. I’m straight, but I would bring him home. To perform this song, jerks. Where yo head at?
19. Alicia Keys – Like You’ll Never See Me Again (Last Week #17, One Week at #1)
It is time to say goodbye to the fine ass Alicia Keys as this looks to be her last week on the Countdown. It has been a very dominant 5 months for her, as she has been a fixture but it had to end sometime. I’m gonna miss my baby.
18. Kid Sister feat. Kanye West – Pro Nails (Last Week #18)
After jumping up two spots last week, Kid Sister holds pat at number 18. Not much about her album yet but that song “Switchboard” isn’t bad. It isn’t GOOD but it isn’t bad either.
17. Sowelu – Hikari (Last Week #14)
GIVE ME SOME MORE SOWELU!!! Preferably just standing around looking cute as all hell. Said it once and I will say it again: the Asian Mandy Moore. Which means I want some more of that.
16. The Roots feat Dice Raw & Peedi Crack – Get Busy (Last Week #19)
The Roots ALREADY have a new song out and the video for their new single with Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy. Sounds….interesting. This video is well on the way to becoming a ringtone because this beat is rather as the kids say “bananas.”
15. NaNa – SHOW GIRL (Last Week #12, Two Weeks at #1)
NaNa continues to hang on after four months! This video is not going away mainly because I need my fix and I cant find any more work from her because….God hates me.
14. James Morrison – You Give Me Something (Last Week #15)
James Morrison makes his slow rise up the Countdown, moving up one spot this week. I am thoughalllt shocked by how few people know about this guy. He is the tits and a half!
13. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Amazing (Last Week #9)
After coming so close to the top, HAMC fall out of the Top Ten this week. You know, I felt kind of ripped off with the greatest hits album last year rather than a new one but I cant complain because old HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR rocks more than most stuff now.
12. Yui – Laugh Away (Last Week #16)
Man, 2008 is going to kick ass. I gots me some Yui f0r the first time in five months and I cannot be any happier. I am totally waiting for her album next month and SO SHOULD YOU! She is freaking awesome and….I think she’s hot. But I’m weird.
11. Foxxi MisQ – X.B.F. (Last Week #13)
Now aint a man alive going to argue that the members of Foxxi MisQ aint hot. If they do….they’s got problems. Take note ladies: if you cant make the dress work, give someone else the job. Because they are WORKING THOSE DRESSES OUT in this video! Tastes gooooooooooooooood.
10. UVERworld - Roots (Last Week #7)
For the first time ever it looks like UVERworld isn’t going to crack the Top Three! Even though their album is arguably the best of the year. That was a shock because I was not impressed with the initial singles from the album but the non-single tracks ROCK. Even “Endscape” has grown on me.
9. Hearts Grow - Kasanaru Kage (Last Week #10)
Hearts Grow slowly moves up another spot this week as they keep their upward trend going. You know, it’s nice to see just a normal video from a female band. Rather than self-imposed “booty butt cheeks.”
8. Nelly Furtado – In God’s Hands (Last Week #5)
Nelly Furtado falls three spots this week as her quest to top the chart once again seems to be over. I wonder how long she plans to milk this whole “Loose” album. She is trying to pull a Fergie and we all know how much I wish that man would come out of the closet.
7. Erykah Badu - Honey (Last Week #11, Biggest Mover)
Ms. Badu is in the Top 10! I actually haven’t been able to pick up her album yet but I plan to at some point next week. This video is one of the best I have seen in a while (Not by UGK and Outkast, of course) and I heard her album is one of the better ones of 2008. Pick it up, fools!
6. Yui – Namidairo (Last Week #8)
Looks like we got us some more Yui! Although I would prefer a more rocking song (It has pretty much been all ballad videos/songs since “My Generation”) I must admit this video has really grown on me. Can this video give her a third number one?
5. John Legend – Show Me (Last Week #3)
After falling short of the elusive fourth tenure at the top spot, John Legend falls two big spots this week. Did you see him on The Colbert Report last week? Priceless, the man is a true talent. Kind of makes you put R. Kelly’s pissing ass in perspective.
4. Mihimaru GT – Diverge (Last Week #6)
Look out now, but Mihimaru GT is eyeing the number one spot yet again! They move up into the top five this week and seem to be gaining some more momentum. With three singles already, I believe a new album can’t be far behind seeing as how I have thoroughly abuse their greatest hits folder on my iPod. And now….we are down to three!
3. Lupe Fiasco feat Kanye West, Pharrell & Thom Yorke – Us Placers (Last Week #2, Four Weeks at #1)
After a long month-long run at number one, CRS falls one more spot to number three. Kanye and Lupe BOTH have new video and I am really excited about Lupe’s new video because it looks to be like Talib Kweli’s “The Blast” while Kanye is releasing “Homecoming” in a few days actually. Hip hop is BACK!
2. RBD - Inalcanzable (Last Week #4)
YES! Dulce, Anahi and Maite are one step away from Countdown immortality! The leapfrog CRS to take over the runner up spot, their highest position ever. This is only their second time on the Countdown at all and even with a year between videos they still have the staying power to be one step from the top. But the champ remains the same…
1. Bennie K – Monochrome (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)
Bennie K holds on for another week! I am totally looking forward to more Bennie K but until then this video and song reign supreme. Oh…and I really want me some Cico. Just all sexy like and whatnot. Yuki, you aint bad yo damn’self. Your combined hotness locks the top spot down for a second week. Congrats!
That is all for this week, peeps! Tune in next week to see if Bennie K can make it three weeks at number one! Or can RBD heat up the top spot and take it for the first time? Or will CRS pull a UGK/UVERworld and reclaim the throne? See you next Friday!
Chachi Out!
