Anthony's Weekly Top 50
#08-28: 07/06/08-07/12/08
Chart At A Glance:
- Wow, for another time this year, ALL songs change rank from the previous week
- Even more remarkable, however, is that #1 is a debut! It's "Here I Am", by downhere
- The song is the fourth #1 debut in the history of my charts, but it also makes for the first time my chart has ever had two back-to-back #1 debuts
- However, as if #1 is the only newsmaker; there are 2 other debuts inside my Top 10, making for a rare total of 3 Top 10 debuts
- So many songs move up or down at least 5 spots, all over my chart
- This has been the craziest year on my chart so far, but it's only half over
- Finally, amidst all the craziness this week, five songs fall, including two that retire, MercyMe's "Bring The Rain" and Casting Crowns' "Praise You In This Storm"
- Which means that for the first time ever since the first Christian songs debuted on my chart the week of December 27, 2003, MercyMe has no songs inside my Top 50
- But their latest, "You Reign", is bubbling under and may rise into my Top 50 in the coming weeks
