New Additions to the Hot 100 of Note
17. Justin Bieber - Die In Your Arms
I give the Biebs props for further exploring his sound, but this one just ain't for me. Fingers crossed for Single #3, bud.

85. Jay Sean - I'm All Yours (feat. Pitbull)
If Jay wants another American #1 ("Down"), he needs to come harder and with another dude by his side. Can we stop with the Pitbull please?

93. The Wanted - Chasing The Sun
It's no "Glad You Came" but it's better than One Direction's follow up single so...
