COLLEGE RADIO RECAP WEEK 47. CMJ ISSUE 1420

One more week left!!!!! I am so happy that I do not have a horse in this top of the charts race. 

Just look at this top 7. 

1	2	4	1	4	KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD	Paper Mache Dream Balloon	ATO
2	4	3	2	5	JOANNA NEWSOM	Divers	Drag City
3	5	11	3	4	GRIMES	Art Angels	4AD
4	1	1	1	7	NEON INDIAN	Vega Intl Night School	Mom And Pop
5	3	2	2	7	DEERHUNTER	Fading Frontier	4AD
6	6	9	6	6	BEACH HOUSE	Thank Your Lucky Stars	Sub Pop
7	7	10	7	5	FUZZ	II	In The Red

I thought by now Grimes or Beach House would be number one but King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have slowly just climbed their way to the top.  But Joanna Newsom was close as was Grimes. The thing now though is getting through to anyone becomes more difficult. The end of the year means less new records to push out the old ones. It also means more exams for the students out there. 

Again, I am very happy I don't have to worry about pushing for #1 right now it would be way to frustrating. 

I am not even going to talk about ADDs today. 

I will but only to tell you why I am not talking about them. 

This was reported as a Top Five: 

1. CHRIS BROWN X

2. N' SYNC No Strings Attached

3. JUSTIN BIEBER Purpose

4. RIHANNA Hard

5. FETTY WAP Fetty Wap

And a Single Got #1 most added. 

Next week is the last week. Lets talk about your favorite records of the year. 

Maybe next week we will go over the whole year instead of or in addition to next weeks chart. 

Hit me up on Twitter to discuss these and other things. 

Thanks for reading.
