Hot Digital Songs
Over on the Digital Songs chart, Taylor Swift scores her fifth No. 1 as "Begin Again" bows in the top slot with 299,000 downloads sold. It's the latest preview single from her upcoming "Red" album. Watch for the set's title track to impact the Digital Songs chart next week, as it was released to retailers on Oct. 2.
PSY's "Gangnam Style," meanwhile, falls a slot to No. 2 with 294,000 sold (down 2%). Right behind PSY is Ke$ha's new "Die Young," which starts at No. 3 with 188,000. It's the first single from the singer's upcoming album "Warrior," due out Dec. 4. The last time Ke$ha released a new single was in 2010, when she dropped "We R Who We R" from the "Cannibal" album. "We R" debuted at No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart with 280,000 downloads.
Behind Ke$ha on the Digital Songs chart this week is Maroon 5's "One More Night," slipping two rungs to No. 4 with 181,000 (down 12%). Swift is found again in the top five, as "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" slides 3-5 with 169,000 (down 14%).
fun.'s "Some Nights" drifts 4-6 with 140,000 (down 12%) while Rihanna's "Diamonds" debuts at No. 7 with 133,000. "Diamonds" is the lead cut from the diva's upcoming new studio effort, due later this year. Comparatively, "We Found Love," Rihanna's first single from her last album "Talk That Talk," launched with 117,000 sold. (However, "We Found Love" was released on a Thursday to retailers, meaning it had four days worth of sales in its debut week. On the other hand, "Diamonds" dropped last Wednesday, so it had one more day of sales in its opening frame.)
As for the rest of the top 10: Alex Clare's "Too Close" falls 5-8 (116,000; down 11%), Enrique Iglesias' "Finally Found You" (featuring Sammy Adams) debuts at No. 9 (112,000) and Flo Rida's "Whistle" slips 6-10 (104,000; down 16%).
