M10 2.0

 Okay, so I am going to loosen up the paradigm a little.  It's going to be a "you never know what's up next" deal, and this week I have to share with you a bit of research (not my own) on TWO-hit wonders.  In the mean time, I do have 2 new debuts, and the first one comes in at #10, from Allison Krauss and Union Station...

**************************************************************

Chris Dallas Riva (Cantgetmuchhigher.com) did the research on official two-hit wonders- acts that had at least ONE top 10 and one more that cracked the top thirty.  I didn't know a lot of them, but I'm going to share with you the ones I did, and where they ranked on his list.

19- Deep Purple- with Hush and Smoke On The Water both making #4.

17- Jimmy Buffett with Margaritaville (8) and Come Monday (30).

16- Staind with It's been A While (5) and So Far Away (24).

15- Bonnie Tyler with Total Eclipse Of The Heart (1) and It's A Heartache (3).

14- Beastie Boys with Fight For Your Right (To Party) (7) and Intergalactic (28).

13- The Clash with Rock The Casbah (8) and Train In Vain (23).

12- Crowded House with Don't Dream It's Over (2) and Something So Strong (7).

Take a breath, and listen to my other debut at #8 from Cole Swindell:

Back to the two-hit wonder list...

11- Tracy Chapman with Give Me One Reason (3) and Fast Car (6).

10- a-Ha with Take One Me (1) and The Sun Always Shines On TV (20).

8- Enya with Only Time (10) and Orinoco Flow (24).

7- The Scorpions with Wind Of Change (4) and Rock You Like A Hurricane (25).

5- The Cure with Love Song (2) and Friday I'm In Love (18).

4- The Cranberries with Linger (8) and When You're Gone (22).

3- The Killers with Mr. Brightside (10) and When You Were Young (14).

And the biggest two- hit wonder, by far...

1- Pink Floyd with Another Brick In The Wall (1) and Money (13).   And now, the rest of my top 10...

Last week Geowulf was 4 with Can't Read Your Mind; falls to 9 this week.

Austin Snell's Pray All The Way Home at 10 last week and The war And treaty's Love Like Whiskey at 9 both fell out.

Lucius, which debuted at 8 last week with Impressions, climb 1 to 7.

Beabadoobee's Sway, coming in at 7 last week, goes all the way to #3.

Amira Elfeky's Death Of Me held #6 both weeks.

I mentioned that Matt Berry's Silver Rings made the top ten all time last week.  This week, after a drop from 2 to 5, now sits #4 all time.   

Shannon and the Clams were #4 both weeks with I'm A Fool.

Austin Snell claimed a second week at the top last week, but falls to #2 this time.

And that means this week has a new #1- up from #3...

...Greta Van Fleet with Black Smoke Rising!

See you next week- at least I hope to...
