Saturday's TPM Hit Music Daily Dozen (March 9, 2013)

The differential to the change at the top of Total Popular Music continues getting smaller by the day -- today down to 1250 from 1645 Friday, which reflected decreases from Monday's 3054 in multiple steps. Maroon 5's DAYLIGHT remains on track to replace Taylor Swift's I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE -- but, barring a miracle, not in time for the next weekly Super Sixty, due Sunday. So it looks like TROUBLE will get a sixth and very likely final week in the TPM Penthouse before DAYLIGHT becomes the new TPM top-tune-topper, first on our Daily Dozen, likely in another four days (if not a bit sooner) ... Now back-to-back, can Bruno Mars' WHEN I WAS YOUR MAN (today passing 12,000 total plays) pass Bruno Mars' LOCKED OUT OF HEAVEN in time for the new weekly chart? Maybe, but there's a still a differential of 604 today ... SWEET NOTHING, already up this week 12-11, advances 11-10 today. Calvin Harris and Florence Welch are smiling! ... Justin Timberlake's SUIT AND TIE broke fast and furiously, then seemingly stalled out, but is now back on track, adding a daily gain of 230 plays, a day after re-entering the Top 12 Songs of the Day -- from TOTAL Popular Music - 'The NEW Mass Appeal Hit Music Radio Format!' - From Mark Harris Broadcast Consulting.
