Just got done tweaking this week’s playlist.  A lot of changes.  Sam Smith falls and hangs on at the same time as his “I’m Not The Only One” is off the list for the first time in almost a month, while “Lay Me Down” hangs on for a second week.  Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars also stick around for week number two with “Uptown Funk”

                                                            

Three new entries find their way onto the list this week.  Randy Houser makes his debut with “Like a Cowboy”.  When his album How Country Feels first came out, I could not get enough of this song, and I’m so happy to see it being released as a single and gaining traction at radio.  Thanks to the Spotify New Release playlist I discovered James Bay.  His track “Hold Back The River” is one of the other new entries this week.  Lastly, I included a local artist whose song I’ve really taken a liking to.  Winston Drei Tod’s “You Are What I’m Needing” is a fun piece that caught my attention thanks to a colleague of mine.

                                  

With all the entries some must fall.  Joining Sam Smith’s “I’m Not The Only One” (4 weeks) on the chopping block are Sturgill Simpson’s “The Promise” (3 weeks) and Ingrid Michaelson’s “Time Machine” (3 weeks)

Here’s the list.

Don’t forget the bonus Christmas Playlist.
