The New TPM Hit Music Super Sixty - Week of: Dec. 9, 2012

The new weekly Total Popular Music Super Sixty, for the week of December 9, 2012, has now been published at TotalPopularMusic.com. Bruno Mars' LOCKED OUT OF HEAVEN begins its first full week at Number One on the new Super Sixty, now online. It's this week's third greatest gainer, adding 1917 total plays for a total tally of 18,168 which is 612 above the runner-up, Ke$ha's DIE YOUNG ... The top gainer of 20 (of which 11 are SuperGainers, +800 or more) is Taylor Swift's I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE, +2908, leaping 30-18 ... The second biggest gainer is The Lumineers' HO HEY, +1917, 9-7 ... Rounding out the first five of the gainers are P!nk's TRY, +1658, 15-11 and Maroon 5's DAYLIGHT, +1365, 40-26 ... Also impressive are the increases for 6th greatest Rihanna's DIAMONDS, +1323, 5-4, and 7th greatest BEAUTY AND A BEAT, Justin Bieber with Nicki Minaj, +1157, 18-13 ... [All of the Greatest Gainers are listed in Chart Chat, along with the Biggest Losers, topped by Taylor Swift's WE ARE NEVER EVER GETTING BACK TOGETHER, -2514, down 10-14] ...
