THO 100 Update for week ending October 24, 2009

In a surprising move, "Uprising" by Muse slides into the #1 position on the latest THO 100 chart. Shakira's "She Wolf" and Madonna's "Celebration" both lost points compared to last week, allowing Muse to back into the top spot even though their hit lost points as well. Judging by the the points allotted to the top songs, it becomes the "weakest" number one song in years on this chart. Nevertheless it is Muse' first #1 song on THO. Their first hit, "Muscle Museum," nearly made it to the top but stalled at #2 in 1999. "Uprising" is the 12th number one song of 2009. Who will rise to the top next week is anyone's guess. The three songs mentioned previously all have a chance, as do Alexandra Burke's "Bad Boys" and Robbie Williams' "Bodies." But after next week, it is widely expected that the momentum of Britney Spears' latest hit "3" will carry it to the top.

THO 100 Update for the week ending April 12, 2008

Rock band Muse are currently riding their 11th THO hit, which may end up being their biggest. This week "Uprising" is both the largest point gainer and has the largest chart move. It is their biggest hit since "Starlight" in 2006. Muse hails from England, and they will soon release their fifth studio album "The Resistance" on September 15th in the U.S., on which "Uprising" can be found. No big surprises at the top of the chart, as the Black Eyed Peas and Green Day hold on to #1 and #2, respectively. Shakira looks poised to shake things up next week, as she moves from #6 to #3 on this chart.
