Monday Morning Mediabase Update – Feb 15-21

With the competition rounds of Season 9 about to start, it seems fitting that it’s the Season 8 Idols rattling the boards this week. First onto the podium is Kris Allen with his LLWD zipping down the Pop downhill for a new peak of 13 and inside the top 15. The song also slalom’s it’s way through the AC chart to move up 5 spots into the top 30. LLWD is now top 30 on 3 charts, top 15 on 2 and top 10 on 1.

Not to be outdone is Adam Lambert getting his toe across the line first at the short-track speedskating venue of Pop and achieving his first top 20 song. He also manages to push down “Down” so that it goes recurrent which had had a pretty good run for Season 6 Idol, Jared Cotter (one of the co-writers). 30 weeks on the pop chart. WWFM is also keeping the pace up on HAC and just barely finished outside of the top 20 on that chart. Next week!

Also, proving that race isn’t over until it’s over, Danny Gokey returns to the top 40 on Country.
