"Fly Like A Bird" bubbles under at R&B

This week "Fly Like A Bird" bubbles under on the R&B chart at #21. If "Fly" makes it onto the R&B chart it could potentially give Mariah an amazing five concurrent entries on the R&B chart. To do so "Shake It Off" and "We Belong Together" will need to hang on and this week they make a strong move in doing so as both songs regain their bullets with "Shake It Off" even re-entering the top 40.

"We Belong Together" also rebounds on the Hot 100 Singles Recurrent to #2, a new peak on that chart for the song. Mariah is prevented from a #1 on this chart by Kelly Clarkson as her "Since U Been Gone" occupies the top slot. Of course all of this resurgence by Mariah's older singles is due to the recent airing of the Grammy Awards. And as expected, "The Emancipation Of Mimi" also benefits from the awards show as it re-enters the top ten at #7.

Over on the Hot 100, "Don't Forget About Us" continues to slip down the chart, this week at #29. Beyonce holds on at #1 for the fourth straight week, the longest stay at #1 so far this year. James Blunt could overtake her at some point as his digital sales are pretty impressive. However his #19 position on Hot 100 Airplay is what is holding him back. While the song is high up at #2 on both the Adult Contemporary and Adult Top 40 chart it is still climbing up the Pop 100 Airplay chart where it currently sits at #23.
