STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN – He’s 62, and he’s been writing and singing to God since his mid-20s. Officially he’s got 50 # 1 smash hits in his career (more than any other Christian artist). He entered my chart for the very first time in August 2022 with “Don’t Lose Heart” – which was officially his 50TH # 1 smash nationwide (in February 2023). His 2ND hit – is his 1ST # 1 smash on my chart – “Do It Again”. It sounds like a throwback to mid-1980s power-pop. Check out the fun vintage music video that looks back at his life and career.

TOP 24 OF 2024 – 2 more weekly charts remain in 2024, and then I’ll have all of the data that I need to compile my Top 24 hits of 2024. I’ll publish it here on Tuesday December 31ST 2024. Looks like exactly half of the songs in my current Top 10 will be on my Top 24 Of 2024 – including of course – “Do It Again”.

SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime by accessing my CountUp playlist on Spotify. All 10 hits are there from top to bottom. You can hear them in order from # 1 to # 10, or you can shuffle them. My playlist will be updated every weekend (usually before the actual chart is presented here on Mondays). You can link to it here.

Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to share God’s Good News and win souls for Christ through His music. God used loud music on the radio in South Florida to reach me in August of 2006. I’ve been testifying about Him ever since.

Be blessed my friends !  May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

1985 – And # 1 this week in 1985 was “We Built This City” from Starship. It was my very first # 1 smash on my brand-new chart at the time. My weekly hobby of counting down the hits with Casey Kasem went International in November 1985 when I moved to Gloucestershire England courtesy of the USAF. I put pen and pencil to paper, and I wrote down my favorite songs of the week. I continued to do so every week for the next 7 years. After a 3-year hiatus (1992-1995) – I resumed my weekly hit music chart on the brand-new World Wide Web for another 14½ years. After a 7-year hiatus (2010-2017) – I resurrected my weekly hit music chart in its current incarnation – now in its 407TH week. And the #CountUp continues.

TOP 24 OF 2024 – 4 more weekly charts remain in 2024, and then I’ll have all of the data that I need to compile my Top 24 hits of 2024. I’ll publish it here on Tuesday December 31ST 2024.
