Josh Groban Tops My Personal Countdown For the Third Time

It has already been more than a decade since Josh Groban went to #1 in my personal countdown.  In 2003, he had two #1 hits, You're Still You and The Prayer.

Anyway, here are my ten favorite songs for the week ending May 16, 2014.  Since last week was the last week for the latest Body Jam release, my personal countdown was overrun by many Body Jam and Body Attack tracks.

The Frozen Soundtrack Puts Four Number One Songs in My Personal Countdown

The soundtrack to the movie Frozen puts four #1 songs in my personal countdown.  Love is an Open Door is the fourth track from that album to go all the way to #1.  It has been sometime ago that a soundtrack album has done that - and most of those which did are movie classics as well.  Top of mind soundtracks that I can recall right now that has duplicated this feat are The Bodyguard and Dirty Dancing. The other #1 songs from this Frozen album are In Summer, Let It Go, Do You Want to Build A Snowman and this week's #1 song, Love is an Open Door.
