Sorry about yesterday! I had to go to the greatest movieever made yesterday and I forgot to finish up! It is a day late, but it is time for the belated Friday staple!
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We begin this week with a shocking debut!
20. Fonzworth Bentley feat. Andre 3000 & Kanye West – Everybody [Don’t Stop] (New Entry)
….What in the hell?! That’s what I said, too! I have never been a fan of Fonzworth Bentley but when I first saw this video was blown away! I never thought I would see Kanye and Andre 3000 on the same song because my head would explode. But they have and it didn’t.
19. Aqua Timez - Niji (Last Week #14, Plunge of the Week)
Looks like Aqua Timez days on the Countdown are numbered. Quite a shame that this video didn’t achieve the success of “ALONES” but they aren’t going away anytime soon.
18. Lee Hyori – U Go Girl (New Entry)
Oh….my….damn. Hyori is back like cooked crack! After the debacle that was her “Dark Angel” album (Which I LOVED, mind you) she is finally back with a sexy new video and a hot new song. Hyori has been the one chink (NOT A SLUR! I SWEAR! Although she isn’t Chinese…) in my “I don’t like skinny chicks” armor and rightfully so. She has also worked on the dancing, too. She is no NaNa, but still. Welcome back, Hyo Ri!
17. RBD - Empezar Desde Cero (Last Week #20)
RBD moves up three spots this week! Anyone know when the RBD TV show (Not “Rebelde” the one where it is like a hot Partridge Family) is coming out on DVD?
16. Kelun – SIXTEEN GIRL (Last Week #12)
Kelun is the only artist with two videos on the Countdown this week and joins a long list of artists that has had that happen. However , Yui is the only artist to have THREE videos on here which is a feat that may never be matched.
15. Alicia Keys – Teenage Love Affair (Last Week #9, Plunge of the Week)
ALICIA HAS RELEASED A VIDEO FOR “SUPERWOMAN!” I just downloaded it, I will let you know what I think after I see it!
14. Toshinobu Kobuta feat. Misia - Flying Easy Loving Crazy (Last Week #11, Two Weeks at #1)
Where is your damn album?! I needs me a full dosage of TK!
13. Yui – Summer Song (Last Week #15)
So Yui looks to achieve her record SEVENTH Top 10 video! She moves up two spots this week and looks to have another contender for the Album of the Year Chachi Award. Can she finally win it? She was beat out by John Legend in 2006 and Kanye West (IN A CLOSE ONE) in 2007. Maybe this is her year!
12. Seamo feat Ayuse Kozue - Honey (Last Week #13)
Seaom is still hanging around, moving up one spot to number twelve. His album is pretty bad ass (I love “Cry Baby”) and he may be looking for an award. You have come a long way, sir.
11. Kelun – CHU-BURA (Last Week #18)
FUCK YEAH! The biggest song to hit the Countdown since “Hero’s Come Back!” jumps up a MASSIVE seven spots this week for Kelun! This lands him right outside of the Top Ten as he looks to join Usher, Yui, Alicia Keys and HIGH AND MIGHT COLOR as the only artists with two Top 10 videos in 2008. Big ass year for these guys!
10. BACK-ON – Sands of Time (Last Week #6)
After peaking right outside of the Top Five, BACK-ON begins our Top 10 this week. It was a fun ride for them but this won’t be the last time we hear from these guys. Guaranteed.
9. T.I. – No Matter What (Last Week #17, Biggest Mover)
Now for the biggest mover of the week! T.I. jumps a massive TWELVE SPOTS in the biggest jump in Countdown history to give him is sixth Top 10 video! The King is back and “Paper Trail” is looking to be an Album of the Year contender if he keeps this up! I am really feeling “Swing Ya Rag” as once again….Swiss Beatz gets me amped.
8. YA-KYIM – Super Looper (Last Week #5, Three Weeks at #1)
After a long run of two months in the Top Five, YA-KYIM finally falls out! It has been a big year and I am anxiously waiting for a new video from these ladies. I NEED ME SOME!
7. Ikimono-Gakari - Bluebird (Last Week #10)
Things are about to get interesting as Ikimono-Gakari moves up three big spots this week. We have T.I, Kelun and Hyori Lee with new videos so this will be a big summer for the Number One spot! Get ready for a rumble!
6. Wonder Girls – So Hot (Last Week #8)
So Wonder Girls are one step away from the Top Five this week. I wonder how they are going to follow this up because this song is as big in Korea as “Fly Me To The Moon” is in Japan. That is HUGE if you don’t get the reference. If you do, we should hang out.
5. Chris Brown - Forever (Last Week #3)
Chris Brown falls two spots this week as he fails to take the top spot! After two weeks at number three he fails to break through but stays in the Top Five. He us up here with some big dogs in the Countdown lore so it was an uphill battle.
4. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Hot Limit (Last Week #7)
HAMC are back near the top! Can this video do what “Amazing” failed to do against Bennie K and take the throne? I am all about this song (And the live performance of this song was very badass) but we are getting into some TOUGH territory! We are down to three!
3. Usher – Moving Mountains (Last Week #4)
And we start with the Ush! After several weeks of huge moves upward, Usher only jumps up one spot this week but he is into the Top Three once again! He is now making a push for the Artist of the Year but he will have to do a little better than number three to get it.
2. Paramore – That’s What You Get (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)
The run is over! After two well deserved weeks on the throne of the Countdown, Paramore falls a spot to number two! It has been a long trek of over a year and two failed attempts to take the crown but they finally did it! However, they fall this week which means we have a new number one video!
1. Game feat Keisha Cole – Pain (Last Week #2, One Week at #1)
West Coast is in effect! After three videos in the Top Three that failed to take the number one spot, The Game has finally become the champ! It has been a long road for The Game but he has the crown and it is well deserved! Even better, he has a video for “Dope Boyz” coming soon which mean “LAX” will be in the deck come August 26th. Until then, bask in the Game, bitches!
That is all for this week! Tune in next Friday (Back on schedule!) to see if The Game and Keisha Cole can make it two weeks in a row! Or can Paramore take back the top spot for rock? Or will Usher move the mountain one more time and get his second Number One video of 2008?
Alright, sorry about yesterday but I HAD TO SEE “THE DARK KNIGHT!” It is a beautiful Saturday so I am going to hop in the shower and run the streets of the CSP. I will definitely be back tomorrow. Until then, stay up peeps!
Chachi Out.
