Monday Morning Mediabase Update – Apr 5-11

Just in time for his big turn on Idol, Adam Lambert gets his first top 10 hit on HAC with WWFM. Also on HAC, Kelly’s new single AIEW also goes top 15. That leaves Idol dominating that chart with 2 Idols in the top 5 (Daughtry/Kris), 3 Idols in the top 10 and 4 in the top 15.

Not to be outdone is the AC chart which also features those same four Idols in the top 15 after Adam and Daughtry reached top 15 there this week. Those two along with Kris’s LLWD have formed a raft on that chart at 13/14/15 (LLWD/WWFM/LIY) that is drifting up that chart. Kelly’s AG remains in the top 3. Finally, the Idol boot song goes top 40 on the AC chart. 19E has kind of lost it’s way on choosing Idol boot songs from the heady days when “Bad Day” dominated the radio charts, download charts and the Hot 100. It was the first song to reach 2 million downloads when, at the time, you only needed 200K to reach platinum status (RIAA changed the criteria to 1M in July of 2006).

LLWD reaches top 30 on CAC meaning that it hit top 30 in 4 formats, top 15 in 3 formats, top 10 in 2 formats and top 5 in one format. Quite an achievement for a song that was declared DOA. This week it went recurrent on Pop after spending 22 weeks in the top 40. Also leaving us this week is Carrie’s impressive hit, “Cowboy Casanova” which had still been charting on HAC.
