Maroon 5 (2) - Week of September 8, 2012

 Before we get on to this week’s Fresh 45, here’s a list of all the songs we’re saying good-bye to this week.

K'Naan - Hurt Me Tomorrow *

Stefano - I'm On a Roll

The Wanted - Chasing the Sun

Grouplove - Tongue Tied

Usher - Scream

*Spyder Harrison was notably sad at announcing the DTHNOBbing of this song….saying it was his “favorite song” while getting fake-choked-up about it.  He then wished that it would be voted back on next week.  I found this interesting because it was the first time I’ve heard him voice any sort of preference for a given song on the countdown.  Come to think of it, he gets subjected to this stuff probably more than I do.  He must really hate some of these songs without ever being able to say so on the air.
