    CHART NOTES:

    Asteroids Galaxy Tour takes over the #1 spot with their hit "The Golden Age". This is another one of those European hits that seems to not have caught on in the U.S. This is a great song that should be getting radio airplay nationwide and topping all the charts, including your own if you publish one. The single is from their album Fruit.

    Big Movers This Week include Owl City's "Fireflies" going from #6 to #3, Black Eyed Peas' "Meet Me Halfway" moving from #9 to #4, Miss Li's "I Heard of a A Girl" jumping from #17 to #11 and Rihanna leaping from #19 to #12 with "Russian Roulette".

    Chart Debuts for Lady Ga Ga at #15 with "Bad Romance" and country group Lady Antebellum with "Need You Now" at #19.

    ABOUT MEL'S WEEKLY TOP 20:

    Mel's Weekly Top 20 is a compilation of my current favorite tracks as purchased and played on my iTunes and iPods along with many other tracks that I already own. A great majority of the songs on Mel's Weekly Top 20 come from the genres of alternative, pop, and rock music with a smattering or indie tracks, country, new age, R & B and perhaps a hip-hop song or two. The Weekly Top 20 is hugely biased toward my own taste and the kinds of music I like. It is after all, a personal music chart. If I ever owned or programmed a radio station, these are the current songs that would be in high rotation on such a station.

    This is the main page for Mel's Weekly Top 20. I publish this chart every week and have been doing so at this site since January 2006. I purchase tracks that appear on the chart from various sources such as iTunes, Amazon.com. Other songs come from compact discs that I buy from BestBuy and other brick and mortar music retailers.

    I monitor various websites including The Sixty-One.com, Last FM, Twitter, Facebook, myspace.com, YouTube.com streaming audio sites, podcasts, record label sites, TV and the radio for new music to possibly include in each newWeekly Top 20 chart.

    Whether the tracks are bought from digital music retailers or ripped from compact disc, they are all imported into iTunes. Each week I compile my 20 favorite tracks in iTunes to numeric order from 1 through 20. The song titles, artists and other data are cut out of iTunes and pasted into a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is cleaned up, data double checked and then exported to an HTML file where it is finalized and published to the web.

    All of the spreadsheet files for each week are archived and the data from each week's chart is used to compile the yearly Top 100 Chart that is published in late December or early January of the next year.

    Mel's Weekly Top 20 is also posted to Mel's Internet Universe Music Blog and M4B Charts Central, a message board service that tracks several personal charts around the world..
