Shinedown has managed to hold onto their number 1 position for another week with their single "Second Chance". Disturbed has moved up another spot again with their single "Indestructible" from the number 3 position last week, up into the number 2 position this week. Apocalyptica Ft. Adam Gontier has dropped down another spot and settling in the number 3 position from the number 2 position last week with their single "I Don't Care", which was number 1 just two weeks ago.

Just when Apocalyptica Ft. Adam Gontier took over the top spot last week with their single "I Don't Care", they lose it just as quick to Shinedown and their single "Second Chance", who are now sitting pretty at the top of this weeks countdown. Disturbed and their single "Indestructible" seem to be trying to make a run for the top spot moving up another spot this week from last weeks number 4 spot into the number 3 position.
