Thought I'd get the boards moving along....
Anyway, what do you think is going to be the number one song this weekend. Actually, based on the R&R A/C chart, to which the AT20 list tends to be close near the top, it could be any of the following three: "Forever And For Always (which was the top song this past week), "Unwell" (which has been bouncing in and out of the top spot since November) and "Drift Away". We can't rule out "Calling All Angels" either. But that's about it. It's sort of deja vu with the summer of 2001, when three or four different songs were battling it out for the top spot ("Thankyou", "There You'll Be" and "I Hope You Dance", I believe). The only song to spend consecutive weeks on top that year was "This I Promise You" by 'N Sync.

It's really been a race between those songs. I'm really hoping for "Calling All Angels," just to get something different into the top spot, but I doubt that'll happen!

I won't spoil any chart action in the top 20...but below #20 on the same chart is a new song by Alicia Keys. Has she been on AT20 AC before? I don't keep details of the AC chart myself.
Thanks!

I don't believe so, but not 100% sure. I do think "Fallen" made AT20/HAC, but was only ever featured as an extra on AT20/AC.

Had the AT20 AC year-end show been a full Top 60, "Fallen" would have made it, since AT20 was going by the R&R charts back then (it was a year ago this weekend that they switched to a different Mediabase chart) and "Fallen" was in the Top 60. It and "Escape" by Enrique Iglesias were the only two songs in the Top 60 to not have made the AT20 chart, but they did "bubble under". There were a few songs like that on AT20's Top 60 of 2001 (I forget what they were), and Casey even explained their presence on the chart despite not quite making the Top 20. I think I remember the show on which "Fallen" was an extra, but I don't remember which week it was.

Yeah, but that song is up to number three from four. I believe that "Drift Away" fell to number four, but Uncle Kracker isn't yet out of the running. Was number five "First Cut Is The Deepest" by Sheryl Crow? If so, that could be a possible contender for a future number one hit, and I sure hope so, since it's a good song. The other songs in the Top Five are OK, but I'm getting tired of them. On AT20, it's been an all-around battle between the three for the last few months (Train hasn't been to #1 yet) and the last time a different #1 song other than those three was all the way back in, uh, May was it? I think that was when "The Game Of Love" was #1, regaining strength after "Landslide" fell like a rock due to Natalie Maines' comments about the president. Then, in either May or June, Uncle Kracker settled into the top spot for nineteen consecutive weeks, plus two more non-consecutive weeks. We'll have to see what pans out in the next month or so.

I think there's gonna be a battle for #1 between "First Cut Is The Deepest" and "You Raise Me Up". Sheryl will come out on top on AT20 given her higher audience (and Josh's mor abundant Delilag appearances). I think they'll both take the top spot on Billboard and R&R.
Those 2 could hog the Top 2 for a while (airplay wise). If Five For Fighting's "100 Years" keeps moving like it has been, it could inherit the throne from Sheryl/Josh. And this time, there's no "A New Day Has Come" to get in its way.
