A number of Idols flirted with new milestones this week, but by the time the dust settled for the published charts, it was not to be. But, these are the Idols and they will not be denied so we still have a trio of accomplishments.
Kelly Clarkson’s megahit “Already Gone” went to top 5 on the AC chart. For those keeping score at home, that means that the song has gone top 5 on 3 different formats. The song is currently top 5 in 2 formats. Meanwhile, Daughtry has achieved yet another top 5 hit on the Hot AC chart while Kellie Pickler has gone top 15 on the Country chart. That gives us two Idols in the top 15 on country chart and two Idols in the top 5 on HAC.
But all the news is not good. Kelly’s song did go recurrent on the pop chart while Jordin’s “Battlefield” went recurrent on AC. It’s not terrible news because it’s a good achievement to go recurrent, but it does mean that Jordin is disappearing from our chart.
