Sunday's TPM Daily Dozen (Dec. 30, 2012)

Setting the pace for the uppermost fifth of the new weekly Super Sixty (due online later today), our Sunday Daily Dozen confirms a fourth week at Number One for Bruno Mars' LOCKED OUT OF HEAVEN, which is still posting day-to-day gains in the "recovery mode" after losses for most of our songs resulting from alternate Christmas airplay. LOCKED finishes the just-concluded chart week 90 plays above its tally a week ago today ... Runner-up HO HEY from The Lumineers still has a good distance to go to challenge Bruno for the penthouse, but it continues narrowing the gap, today for the first time below 3,000 total plays (2993) ... Rihanna's DIAMONDS and Phillip Phillips' HOME both post day-to-day gains, but each is below its total plays tally a week ago today ... Continuing as strong gainers are P!nk's TRY and (even more so) Taylor Swift's I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE. Ms Swift's latest TPM SuperHit was the only song that didn't show a loss immediately after Christmas ... Ed Sheeran's THE A TEAM hits a new high for total plays, up 256 from last Sunday ... At the bottom, the three decliners realign slightly once again, as Ne-Yo's LET ME LOVE YOU (UNTIL YOU LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELF) slips below fun.'s SOME NIGHTS ...
