A little “local flavor” tops the list this week. With George Strait swinging his last tour through the Houston Rodeo next week, it’s not surprising to see him shoot to the top of the list. He’s probably why the Rodeo gained a spot this week too. Not doubt a lot of central Texas will want to be there at Reliant Stadium for this one. Texans who can’t make it to the Rodeo will have another chance when Strait closes down the first leg of the tour at the Alamodome in June, with Martina McBride and Miranda Lambert.
That’s only the first leg, though. Leg two of The Cowboy Rides Away tour starts up again in 2014. Apparently it is a very long ride.
George’s lightning capture of the top spot threw the rest of the countdown into complete disarray. Bruno Mars takes advantage of the chaos, slipping into the #2 spot, while 1D weathers the storm with only a minor ding. The heat from Beyoncé has cooled a bit; she lands at #5 this week. It would have been tough to sustain those kind of numbers. She’s still on the field, though, more than can be said for her hubby and JT, who made a rather tepid splash last week and have since departed.
Taylor Swift can provide Beyoncé a shoulder to cry on, as she joins the esteemed Mr. Beiber in the bottom five. They are in good company, though, as A-listers Rihanna and Pink hold on for another week, and Maroon 5 returns to the countdown. Their tour with Neon Trees and Owl City (because, I presume, the owls need somewhere to perch) continues through June.
