Chart update 8/14/09
UPDATED 8/26/09: I just today noticed that when I posted last week’s chart, I didn’t update the chart itself! Ugh! This corrected entry shows the accurate Top 10 for the 8/14 chart.
I just posted my Top 25 Dance Chart for the week on my web site. You can read the whole chart by clicking that link, but here’s the Top 10 this week:
| TW | LW | Artist | Title | Label |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | NE | Bananarama | Love Comes | Fascination |
| 2 | 3 | Jessica Jarrell | Armageddon | Mercury |
| 3 | 4 | Gia Bella | Back it Up | Xtreme NYC |
| 4 | 2 | Divine Brown | Sunglasses | Warner |
| 5 | NE | Pepper MaShay | Freeway of Love | CAPP |
| 6 | 1 | Ameerah | The Sound of Missing You | Robbins |
| 7 | 13 | Nick Lachey | Patience | Jive |
| 8 | 10 | Rico Bernasconi | Love Deep Inside | CAPP/Starshit |
| 9 | 5 | Just Jack with Phil Garant feat. Matina Parisi | Smoke | Moda |
| 10 | 11 | Cascada | Evacuate the Dance Floor | Awesome |
Added this week are six hot new tracks:
- Pepper MaShay’s latest, Freeway of Love, has been circulating for a few months now, but it’s official release has arrived. It’s a fantastic cover of the Aretha Franklin hit, with a great set of remixes.
- Bananarama are back with Love Comes. I continue to be amazed that this girl group is still around and sounding (and looking) amazing. Down one of the original members, perhaps, but the two remaining are doing the Bananarama name proud.
- Novaspace’s Dancing Into Danger has been one I’ve played for a few months, but I recently got my hands on more mainstream mixes, and am pleased to be spinning this one more often.
- Nic Chagall feat. Johnathan Mendelsohn, with This Moment. This track is pretty unconventional as dance goes, but it’s a great track with a nice rock vibe and an amazing vocal performance from Mendelsohn.
- Nelly Furtado’s first all-Spanish language album has arrived, and the first single, Manos Al Aire, has been remixed to incredible effect. It’s a beautiful song, whether you understand Spanish or not, but if you do, it’s even more so.
- Naturi Naughton brings us Fame ’09, from the forthcoming remake of the movie Fame. Surprisingly, I like this track.
