It's another quiet week on the Billboard Hot 100, where the highest debut is Lil Wayne and Eminem's "Drop The World" at #18.Elsewhere, Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying"—one of Chart Rigger's lucky picks for Worst Singles Of 2009—crawls up from #32 to #30. Golly, this might end up being the slowest-moving sleeper jam from a former Idol contestant since Katharine McPhee's "Over It" charted at the stunning heights of #29 three years ago.
Meanwhile, it's now been a month since The Script debuted at #96 with "Breakeven," so let's check in and see how they're doing. Oh, there they are—all the way up to #84!
Over on the album chart, it's a sixth week at #1 for Susan Boyle, whose I Dreamed A Dream has now racked up sales of over 3 million copies in the states. I'm putting my ca$h on Ke$ha to knock that broad off her perch next week.
