The action on this week's survey is pretty much limited to the Top 15 and the bottom two, as most songs between positions 16 and 38 move no more than two places from last week.
Of the week's two debuts, "A Warning for the Heart" at No. 40 is the fifth Top 40 hit for Sunshine Anderson. The R&B singer's debut hit in 2001, "Heard It All Before," is still her biggest, having hit No. 1.
Keith Urban's latest, "Without You," is the week's other debut at No. 39. It's the fourth different Top 40 song to share that title since 1980, with Tina Turner and Mariah Carey (covering the classic Nilsson hit) sharing the distinction. The last was the No. 1 Franke and the Knockouts hit from 1982, which was subtitled "(Not Another Lonely Night)." In addition, Billy Ocean spent one week chartbound in 1986 with his own "Without You," a track from the album "Love Zone." (Ocean was the king of songs with those two words, having originally hit in the United States with "Love Really Hurts Without You" and having finished his hit streak on my charts in 1993 with "Everything's So Different Without You.")
At the top of the charts this week, Cee-Lo Green has a strong week with his solo hit, "Forget You," moving 4-1, and his duet with Fantasia, "The Thrill Is Gone," moving 13-8. Songwriters Brendan James and Bruno Mars are vying for a future No. 1 spot, as their respective hits, "The Lucky Ones" and "Just the Way You Are," move 10-4 and 13-5. And the Scissor Sisters plummet 2-14 with "Skin Tight," a bigger drop from the top five than the two leading candidates from earlier this year, Barenaked Ladies' "Summertime" (which fell 1-11) and Enrique Iglesias featuring Pitbull's "I Like It" (which fell 3-13).
