Girl needs more promo.

Billboard Update

The release week of Katy Perry's sophomore album Teenage Dream bumped up single sales for her current single, the title track and California Gurls, which helped push both tracks up a spot to reach #2 and #7 on the Hot 100 this week. Teenage Dream has reached a new peak by the way, standing at #2 while album track Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) debuts down the chart at #67. However, the might of Katy Perry just cannot get a hold on Eminem and Rihanna, who have been ruling the charts for so long with Love The Way You Lie holding up at #1 again. However, I don't expect this to last for too long. After slipping off the Top 10 last week, Taylor Swift's Mine has returned to the Top 10, moving up to #9 this week while Ke$ha's latest single Take It Off rounds out the Top 10 and reaches a new peak of #10 this week on the Hot 100. Adam Lambert's latest single If I Had You stays at its current spot of #32 for a second week. OneRepublic has achieved a new peak for their new single Secrets as it swings into #35 this week. Sara Bareilles' King of Anything remains stuck at #58 this week, just 7 spots away from its peak when it debuted on the chart. Despite her personal life struggles, I truly believe Fantasia has overcome them and Bittersweet has yet moved up again to reach a new peak on the Hot 100 at #74. Daughtry's latest single September from platinum-selling sophomore album Leave This Town has moved up to a new peak as well, hitting #75 this week.

On the Billboard 200 albums chart, Katy Perry's Teenage Dream has hit #1, trailed by a very different artist Fantasia, with her latest set Back To Me. OneRepublic's second album Waking Up makes a move up to #105 this week.

Big News: Sara Bareilles premieres exclusive album track!

Jazz/pop singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles has premiered an exclusive album track called Uncharted to EW to stream on their website. Her upcoming album will be released September 7th and she's already premiered an album track just days ago. That track called Hold My Heart was a middle-of-the-road pop ballad but Sara has brought back to what we know her best for, producing dance-y jazzy stuff, so Uncharted is more Love Song or King of Anything than Gravity. Uncharted isn't an obvious hit, but it's a grower. Enjoy!

Listen to Uncharted: HERE

Sara Bareilles new track: Hold My Heart

Singer/songwriter Sara Bareilles is just a couple weeks to releasing her brand new album Kaleidoscope Heart which hits stores September 7th. Today, Bareilles premiered a brand new song called Hold My Heart which will be on the album. It's a pretty ballad but honestly, there's nothing amazing about it, because her best ballad will always be Gravity. Nevertheless, Kaleidoscope Heart will have different sides to it, I assume. I'm looking forward to hearing the album but for now, here's Hold My Heart. Enjoy!
