19.- Mariah Carey - Bringin' On The Heartbreak (DEBUT) |1 week|
20.- Eros Ramazzotti - Un'emozione Per Sempre (DEBUT) |1 week|


So Tori reclaims the top position... but for how long? At this time I was already sick of Laura Pausini, but Una Storia Che Vale reminded me she could generate a rare nugget of awesomeness every several years. Mariah's song is amazing, and I don't understand how it didn't become a hit. She was so maligned by the press, but the song deserved one chance. And at the bottom of the chart is Eros with one his typical first singles. He hasn't done anything good in forever!

20.- Miguel Nández - Amiga Soledad |9 weeks|


Andy Stochansky was one of those many singers I was introduced to when I first got internet, and it's sad he fell out of the radar, Stutter is a great song. And debuting at 15 is one of my all time favorite songs of Live. The funny thing is that it was on an album with so much filler. Thankfully it was released as a single, and the video was great as well.

20.- Aimee Mann - It's Not |14 weeks|


Yoshimi! I remember listening to it and thinking the whole album could be like that, but it was not lol And Bring Me To Life was the great single that introduced Evanescence to the masses. It is a good song, but after that album, they never recovered (for me) and they do crappy music now.

20.- Stereophonics - Madame Helga (DEBUT) |1 week|


I never really cared for Blue Man Group, but Sing Along was superb, and Dave is amazing. The Used also debuts, their singles from that era remind me of times gone by lol And the third debut is by Stereophonics, but I don't think the song is remembered now, it was a reminder that they hadn't gone completely soft after Just Enough Education To Perform.

20.- Stacie Orrico - Stuck |2 weeks|


I had been wanting to add number of weeks since a while (especially since I had not updated this thing in forever lol) and now here they are. It looks tacky, but well, it is what it is. No debuts this particular week, so only minor movements. I look at my chart now (which is a top 25 now) and wonder, how it was possible that in 2003 the songs amassed such high number of weeks charting! It seems impossible to do now :D

19.- Dixie Chicks - Travellin' Soldier (DEBUT)
20.- Stacie Orrico - Stuck (DEBUT)


One of the finest Dave Matthews Band songs debuts. Maybe their best? Not sure, but it rocks. Also Dixie Chicks debut with a cool song, but still, I think Travellin' Soldier is overrated. Not as much as Not Ready To Make Nice, but still a bit. And finally, Stacie Orrico at 20.

Actually, the Joseph song that debuted is the only song by him that I like. Back in the day I loved it, but now not so much.

I no longer stand Christina's Beautiful, so I'm glad it's out of the top position XD At 20, Miguel Nández debuted, he was a participant in one of the editions of Operación Triunfo in Spain. I watched it and liked his debut single, so here it is.

So Timmy, he had a lot of great songs, and She's My Kind Of Rain is one where you can see how he starts to go down. Granted, I have not even bothered to listen to his recent albums, cause the singles are bad.

Disincanto by Mango is a great song. I just listened to it again and while it's very good, it's not his best. I remember getting an album of his and not liking it. So I wonder if he's a singles artist.

More Tori Amos, Taxi Ride is a cool song. And I just recently learned that Steve Holy's "I'm Not Breaking" was a single, but it was never included on any album. I wonder why, it's a great song!
