The Major’s Top 10 Hits – Week 100

Every Monday night I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday January 13TH 2019:

  1. “Nobody Loves Me Like You” – Chris Tomlin [# 2 last week / 11TH week on chart]
  2. “Maybe It’s OK” – We Are Messengers [4 / 7TH]
  3. “Well Done” – The Afters [1 / 13TH]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week – “Lions” – Skillet

The 100TH week of the 3RD era of my personal hit music chart brings a brand new # 1 smash from a familiar artist. Chris Tomlin scores his 2ND # 1 smash. It’s the follow-up to His “Resurrection Power” which peaked at # 3 last summer which was the follow-up to his # 1 debut smash “Home” during the previous summer (2017).

We Are Messengers inch closer to the top with a track that has really grown on me over the past month-and-a-half. I’m really looking forward to seeing them LIVE in concert here in South Florida next month at the TobyMac show. I have a floor seat just 8 rows from the end stage near the middle. I’ll be required to sing and dance all night long !

Hillsong United’s latest “Not Today” reaches my Top 5 for the first time – in its 17TH week. Fun Fact:  It spent 10 non-consecutive weeks at # 7. I love when it comes on the radio. I always sing along to it.

Today marks the end of a full year in my return to WordPress. I left this platform behind during the early-2010s to tweet and put up a wall (on Facebook). This blog actually started on MySpace back in 2007, and then I modernized it to WordPress towards the end of that same year. This past year of blogging was my most satisfying (and most read – worldwide) since the peak of my original WordPress run a full decade ago. It was more active than every year of blogging during my ill-fated run on Facebook. I have all of you – who read this blog – who like it – who follow it – who tell their friends about it – to thank – for supporting this rejuvenation of my ministry. Let’s keep this forward momentum going. Let’s continue to glorify our everlasting God !

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again next weekend – 4 blog posts on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

The Major’s Top 10 Hits – Week 99

Every Monday night I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday January 06TH 2019:

  1. “Well Done” – The Afters [# 1 last week / 12TH week on chart]
  2. “Nobody Loves Me Like You” – Chris Tomlin [2 / 10TH]

# 1 One Year Ago This Week – “Lions” – Skillet

My first new weekly chart of 2019 looks pretty much like my last new weekly chart of 2018. There are no new entries, and only one hit makes upward momentum – “Maybe It’s OK” – the 3RD big hit in a row from We Are Messengers. Their “Magnify” hit # 2, and their “Point To You” hit # 3 in 2017. I get to see them LIVE in concert next month at the TobyMac show !

Next Monday night I’ll present my 100TH weekly chart of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017 – the night of the last TobyMac show that I attended. I’m not planning anything special. It’ll just be another new weekly chart. That’s the way this chart was born again. No fanfare. No planning. It just happened. God’s Glory.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again next weekend – 4 blog posts on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.

  18. “No Matter What” – Ryan Stevenson Ft. Bart Millard [# 3 for 1 week]

# 1 Of 2017 – “Broken Things” – Matthew West

What a great year for God’s music. What a great chart to represent His music. Not a lot of surprises there. When “Do It Again” and “Grace Got You” became summertime anthems and finished as # 1 and # 2 on my special “Summer Of 2018” chart – they pretty much clinched # 1 and # 2 for the entire year.

MercyMe also had the # 2 smash of all of 2017 with “Even If”. Both “Even If” and “Grace Got You” fell 8 points shy of the # 1 spot for their respective years.

This chart was compiled by awarding 10 points for each week at # 1, 9 points for # 2, and so forth and so on down to 1 point for # 10. The points are then added, and the hits are ranked.

There were 13 # 1 hits in 2018, and all but 1 of them made the Top 18 – “Lions” (Skillet). It was a holdover from 2017, and its run at # 1 was actually at the end of its chart life.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again next weekend – 4 blog posts on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest.
