What Time Is It?! Party Time!

What is up, peeps! It is another Friday and you know what it is time for!

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!

We begin this week with a video on its way out….

20. Sowelu – Hikari (Last Week #14)
It looks like the ride is over for Sowelu. It is a shame because I really like this song and the video was very good. Luckily, my baby boo has a new video coming out so its all good for the most part. Sad to see her go….
19. Lupe Fiasco feat Nikki Jean – Hip Hop Saved My Life (New Entry)
YES! It is about time Lupe released a second official single after “Superstar.” This song is rather telling (Story telling that is) and really fits with an equally impressive song. I believe we have a front-runner for the Chachi for Album of the Year! (FUCK WARNER BROTHER MUSIC, BTW)
18. NaNa – SHOW GIRL (Last Week #15, Two Weeks at #1)

NaNa hold on for YET ANOTHER WEEK! That puts her on here for almost four full months and that shows massive staying power if I say so myself. Can she hold on for another week?
17. Kid Sister feat. Kanye West – Pro Nails (Last Week #18)
Kid Sister moves up one spot this week with a little help from Kanye. It seems that he is back to being everywhere which is good because I was really worried that 50 Cent was going to just show up in my fucking living room eating a porkchop sandwich and sipping Vitamin Water. God I hate him.
16. L`Arc~en~Ciel – DRINK IT DOWN (Last Week #20)
The Arc moves up four big spots this week! Can they make it three Top 10 videos in less than a year? I would have to say yes seeing as how this song kicks ass. On another note….Hyde is looking quite Farrah in this video. You know what I mean.
15. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Amazing (Last Week #13)
NEW HAMC ALBUM!! And it is dark as hell. Kind of how I like my rock but even still. For j-pop it is a bit on the Dir En Grey end, minus the overwhelming suck. You heard me; I don’t like Dir En Grey.
14. James Morrison – You Give Me Something (Last Week #14)

James Morrison looks to have stalled this week as the Countdown is not being kind to him. And neither is radio or video outlets. I have YET to see this video anywhere but here. That is fucking annoying because I can turn and see a T-Pain video guaranteed.
13. The Roots feat Dice Raw & Peedi Crack – Get Busy (Last Week #16)
The Roots are making moves on their first time out on the Countdown. They are a stone’s throw from the Top 10 with another video down the pipe (Although I am not a fan of the new song). The new album is coming soon and I am looking forward to it. Change of pace and all.
12. UVERworld - Roots (Last Week #10)
This is UVERworld’s least successful video to ever chart as it didn’t even make the Top 5! That isn’t so bad because the album was bloody great so that makes up for the short-comings of the singles that were released.
11. Yui – Laugh Away (Last Week #12)
YAAAAAY! Yui is on the verge of having two videos in the Top 10 once again! She was the third to do it (behind UVERworld and John Legend) and it looks like the album will be here sooner rather than later. And the excitement begins!!
10. Nelly Furtado – In God’s Hands (Last Week #8)
Nelly Furtado once again fails to take the number one spot as she is now one for five to make it to the top. At least she has one. Here is hoping for a new album or AT TLEAST a collaboration of some sort rather than pulling from “Loose” again.
9. Foxxi MisQ – X.B.F. (Last Week #11)

Just got the single. TASTES GOOOOOOD. Foxxi is back in the Top 10 for the third time! They are looking to finally take the throne as they came short even though they had two videos in the Top 5. There was just way too much hot up there.
8. Hearts Grow - Kasanaru Kage (Last Week #9)
Hearts Grow moves up one spot this week as they slowly and without much fan fare move closer to the top. They keep a real low key profile (I have yet to see a single performance clip) and I guess that is the plan or something. I would like to see at least ONE live performance.
7. John Legend – Show Me (Last Week #5)
After failing to take top spot for a fourth time, Mr. Legend falls from the Top 5. I have to go the same route with John that I took with Nelly here. It is about time for a new album. Or at least a collabo.
6. Erykah Badu - Honey (Last Week #7)

Miss Badu is moving up yet again! I will get the album soon, I promise! And dare I say….here booty is great. Just saying.
5. Lupe Fiasco feat Kanye West, Pharrell & Thom Yorke – Us Placers (Last Week #3, Four Weeks at #1)
Lupe, Kanye and Pharrell all have new videos out and I am rather excited. Especially because Pharrell is back with the long awaited return of THE TERIYAKI BOYZ!! Hells yeah!
4. Yui – Namidairo (Last Week #6)
Yui is back in the Top 5! Could this be as big a year for her as 2007 was? It is looking to be that way as of right now with two new videos and a new album next month! She will have to work hard to top NaNa and maybe even Lupe Fiasco, though. We are down to three!
3. Mihimaru GT – Diverge (Last Week #4)

Hiroko is back near the top! After a pretty long journey, Mihimaru GT is looking to take over the throne once again! It has been a while since they have been this high and with three singles I will hopefully have a full album from my baby boo soon!
2. RBD - Inalcanzable (Last Week #2)

For the second week in a row, RBD stands pat at number two! You would figure with three hot ladies and two hot fellas (and The Uck, sadly) that they could wrestle away the top spot. But for two straight weeks they have been held back by our current number one…
1. Bennie K – Monochrome (Last Week #1, Three Weeks at #1)

Of course it’s Bennie K! For the third week in a row, they are the Countdown champs and hold off the competition once again! This is the first single from hopefully a new album in 2009! So that means I have something else to look forward to. Aside from my eventual death as I need to become a superstar this year. Until then, Bennie K is still number one!

That is all for this week! Tune in next Friday to see if Bennie K can make it a full month at the top! Or will Rebelde finally take their turn as the crown holders? Or will Mihimaru GT move to number one for the second time? See you all next Friday!

I will be back on Sunday I believe. Be sure to go and vote www.douchebrawl.com as the Regional Finals end Sunday night! After that, the Final Four of Douchebrawl 2008 will begin! We have two close races so all your votes count! Until I return, stay up peeps.

Chachi Out
