TOP 10 TRACKS OF THE WEEK: On an otherwise dead week, PSY’s “Gangnam Style” finally got displaced from the top of the chart, but it took two superstars to do it. That would be will.i.am and his gal pal Britney Spears, whose “Scream & Shout” snagged #1 in just its second week. Alicia Keys’ “Girl on Fire” jumped from #17 to #3, just a few hundred units above the debuting “My Life” from the trio of 50 Cent, Eminem and the ubiquitous Adam Levine. The Lumineers’ “Ho Hey” was the only Top 10 holdover to actually increase in sales, though only by 1%.
1. will.i.am f/Britney Spears, “Scream & Shout” – 196k
2. PSY, “Gangnam Style” – 143k
