A big shake up on the chart this week and two songs reach the Chart Show Hall of Fame! Of Monsters and Men's "Little Talks," and Lana Del Rey's "Video Games" both reach the Chart Show Hall of Fame this week. Bon Iver drops to the # 10 spot on the chart after a couple weeks close to the top. The Black Keys and Polica float to the #1 and #2 spots this week with The Shins and First Aid Kit in a close #3 and #4. Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles gain traction this week as Jack White drops to the #15 spot. We only had one new entry with The Magnetic Fields taking the spot of the Honeydogs.

Of Monsters and Men hold onto the #1 spot this week just a single vote ahead of Jack White's "Love Interuption." Polica moves up to #3 this week as they build their following at SXSW. There are two new entries on The Chart this week - a late addition to the chart by Bon Iver and a local debut from Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles. Nada Surf re-enters the chart before their stop in Minneapolis later this month, and we lost Springsteen, the Alabama Shakes, and the Heartless Bastards.

This week on The Chart Show, Bon Iver lands at #4 and is inducted into the The Chart Show Hall of Fame. Jack White rockets to the top of the chart in his 3rd week with "Love Interruption."
New entries from Trampled By Turtles (#10), Radiohead (#13), Fun. (#15), Leonard Cohen (#19), and Heartless Bastards (#20). We lost the bottom of last week's chart as The Pines, Howler and the Jayhawks lose out to our newcomers and The Wombats (#18). Moving up this week is Polica, the Black Keys, Lana Del Rey, and The Honeydogs. This week's chart mystery...where did all the Dr. Dog fans go after four weeks on the chart and dropping off from the #11 spot?

The top of the chart this week continues to be dominated by Gotye and The Black Keys with local acts Polica and Doomtree not far behind. There are four debut entries this week including a strong first week for Mason Jennings and Lana Del Rey. Icelandic band Of Monsters and Men land at the #15 spot for their first week and Beirut returns to the chart with "A Candle's Fire." We lost Ryan Adams, Cults, and Cake.

Two blues icons originate right here in Minnesota: the Mississippi River and Highway 61, aka the "Blues Highway". This week's episode of The Current Presents is called "Blues Highway", and we're taking an hour-long exploration of the blues.
Joining me is local musician and English professor, Dr Andy Scheiber. Andy will talk about his personal connections to the blues and what the blues means to those who play it and listen to it.
We'll hear music from such artists as Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, Bob Dylan, Koerner Ray & Glover, Gary Clark Jr and others.
![]()
L to R: Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, Bob Dylan, Koerner Ray & Glover, Gary Clark Jr
We'll also talk to three local musicians who participate in the area's blues scene: guitarists Andy Harwood and Mike O'Malley, and drummer Vic Velour.
In the second half-hour, we'll talk to the Dodge Brothers, a band out of Southampton, England, whose original blues and skiffle tunes are inspired by a toe-tapping concoction of transatlantic influences.
![]()
The Dodge Brothers (L to R): Mike Hammond, Mark Kermode, Alex Hammond, Aly Hirji
Tune in to The Current Presents: Blues Highway, this Sunday, Dec. 18, at 9 p.m.
