Ugh, why can't that annoying song just die already? I really, REALLY hope it doesn't break the record. It would be such a shame if it ended up going to a song that I consistently "No. Just no." At least I liked "How Do I Live"!

Hmmm, maybe we should start a chart critiques thread for current countdowns? That would be interesting, as I'm sure we all have a few choice words to say about present-day hits. Like many long running top 40 hits, I originally liked "I'm Yours" but am now sick of it. If it makes you feel better, the song FINALLY fell off AT40 (Seacrest/Mediabase version) this week.
