Jason Derulo (1) – Week Of May 17, 2014

 Before we get to this week’s Fresh 45, here are the songs we’re saying goodbye to this week.

Fall Out Boy – My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up) (#31) (!!!)*

Midnight Red – Hell Yeah (#43)

Hardwell/Matthew Koma – Dare You (#44)

note: this isn't my writing, I copied this from Adrian's blog. I love My Songs Know.

*This song debuted on February 9, 2013. It made a record for a song with the longest title ever. This band has had other long titles. This song slowly made its way to the top of the countdown. It was at #1 for six non-consecutive weeks (Olly Murs – Troublemaker and P!nk/Nate Ruess – Just Give Me A Reason were the interrupters). Pretty soon I got tired of it and Hits 1 threw it to #30. But then it made a big jump back into the Top 5. It made many big jumps and drops. But this super long tenure of 1 year and 3 months is what will really be remembered. This record may never be broken again! Spyder Harrison recognized it as “The song that won’t go away”. But it had to go away eventually. Every now and then, I dedicated some of my blurb space to describe how this song was still here. Goodbye Fall Out Boy – My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up), you will (not) be missed.
