1. Katy Perry - Firework
"Firework" continues to light up the Hot 100 at No. 1, leading the chart for a third consecutive week and continuing its climb up the Radio Songs chart, where it takes the Airplay Gainer tag with a 6-3 move on the airplay list .
One explosive title makes way for another atop Digital Songs, as Bruno Mars' "Grenade" takes out "Firework," selling 212,000 downloads (up 14%). The title is Mars' third to lead Digital Songs, following B.o.B's "Nothin' On You," on which he was featured, and "Just the Way You Are." On the Hot 100, "Grenade" gravitates to No. 2 from No. 3 and is in prime position to take over the No. 1 slot next week.
What's My Name replaces Only Girl (In The World) at No. 1 on Radio Songs, marking the first time that an artist has swapped titles atop that list since T.I. posted back-to-back chart-toppers with "Whatever You Like" and "Live Your Life" (which coincidentally featured Rihanna).
Raise You Glass stays stationary from last week position. Raise Your Glass is P!nk's second solo no. 1, the first being So What in 2008.
The former no. 1 stays stationary on BIllboard Hot 100 while climbing a slot on Pop Songs and two slots on Radio Song into a new peak.

Rough Debut
The next highest debut outside the top 10 comes from 2010 "American Idol" runner-up Crystal Bowersox at No. 28 with her "Farmer's Daughter" starting with 58,000. The album still sell better than winner, Lee DeWyze though the album entered higher at no.19. Farmer's Daughter also got better reviews than Lee's Live It Up.
