THO 100 Update for week ending April 18, 2009

This week "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz falls off the THO 100. It is the first time since the May 3, 2008 chart the song has been missing, which amounts to 49 weeks. It becomes one of many songs to fall just shy of one full year (52 weeks) on the chart. In the last two years several songs have suffered the same fate, including "Rehab" by Amy Winehouse (51 weeks), "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood (51 weeks), "How To Save A Life" by The Fray (50 weeks), "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles (49 weeks), "U + Ur Hand" by Pink (49 weeks), and "Over My Head (Cable Car)" by The Fray (49 weeks). The last song to visit the chart for a full year was "Bad Day" by Daniel Powter (52 weeks). The all-time record (starting with THO's first chart in 1993) belongs to Alanis Morissette's "You Learn," which spent a remarkable 85 weeks on the chart.

Oh and by the way, Lady GaGa's "Poker Face" spends a second week at #1 on this week's chart.
