Chart notes:
   Elderbrook and Rudimental have reached the top of the LGBT chart this week, as "Something About You" rises two more notches to land at #1.

   Nine songs fell off the chart this week to make way for nine new songs. The highest debut of the week was "Bad as the Boys" by Swedish singer Tove Lo and Finnish singer Alma, coming in at #19.

   Chart positions are based on points assigned from: (1) the previous week's position, (2) length of time on the chart, (3) views on YouTube from the past 7 days, (4) percentage of increase in views from the week prior, (5) my votes, and (6) any votes I've received by Wednesday morning. If you'd like to vote for your favorite songs, please feel free to leave a comment on this blog or send me a private message (see the contact info above).
