Once again, the Canadian charts have been flaky about updating, so we skipped a couple of weeks...
This week's Cancon Roundup: Martin Solveig and Dragonette (Top Canadian at #9), Alyssa Reid, Kristina Maria, Fefe Dobson, Three Days Grace, Raghav, Shawn Desman, Simple Plan, Girlicious, Sara Evans (10/40=25%, still below the Cancon radio regs).
Chart chat: Adele is still on top of both the US and Canadian charts, which fills me with hope. I was talking to a friend last week and recounting the story I heard about Jann Arden, back when she was trying to break into the US radio market. The US label rep said she had a great voice and she'd do great in the State, that is, if she could drop about 40 pounds.
Last week, there were two American Idol singles on the US charts. This week, they've disappeared. I'm thinking that American Idol has begun to play itself out and that the stars they produce are merely flashes in the pan. Outside of Kelly Clarkson and Daughtry, no one who's come from the show has any staying power. Might be time to hang the whole thing up.
