Well, this was long  in coming... and overall, a pretty solid list. Not sure it's my wittiest list, but for those of you who remember...

So this is the third big top ten outside of the current year that I've put together, and I think it's conducive to describe how this...

Yep, I know it's late - stupid Warner forcing me to re-edit a chunk on a song that I apparently didn't call out immediately as be...

...am I the only one who thinks something strange is happening with the Hot 100 right now? I wouldn't say it was anything that felt to...

Whoo boy, this was not good at all. Hoped to be better, but it happens... But that's not all we're getting tonight, stay tuned!

Well, this is a bit awkward - mostly because there's absolutely no way I come out of this review looking good, especially given the co...

Yes, I know this is up early. That's because it's a short week and I wanted to get this done and crash early, I need my sleep. ...

Man, computer problems couldn't have come at a worse time... goddamn, this has been tough to get out, especially considering I flubbe...

So let me give you all a quick recap of my past few days. I get home from vacation, put up my big recap video, get ready to set up the Tra...

As I said, better late than never. Next up, Dream Theater - stay tuned!

So you know how I've been predicting things were going to get seriously unstable on the Hot 100 for a while now? Well, we've got ...

Well, this was a pretty quick review, but that happens when there's not a lot to it. Next up, Chris Young, and then since I forgot ...

And this was surprisingly easy to get done - either I'm getting better at editing or filming these, or positivity just works for me. ...
