Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Months have passed since anyone other than Carrie Underwood has topped Idols on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

But she’s been supplanted.

While Carrie’s “Undo It” fell from 36 to 45 on the Hot 100 last week, Adam Lambert’s latest single was surging.

“If I Had You” leaped eight spots on the Hot 100, moving from number 54 to number 42. Just three weeks ago, the tune was stuck at number 69.

Here’s a look at how other Idols are doing on the Billboard charts:

Kris Allen: “Live Like We’re Dying” moved up one spot on the Idol-friendly adult contemporary singles chart, from 10 to nine.

Kelly Clarkson: The original Idol’s “Already Gone” is still hanging in the top 10 on the same chart, though it slips from seven to eight.

Chris Daughtry: “September,” the band’s new single, moves from 94 to 91 on the Hot 100. Its predecessor, “Life After You,” holds steady at number seven on the adult contemporary chart. Meanwhile, “Leave This Town” drops from 84 to 92 on the Billboard 200 album chart.

Fantasia: Her new album came out Tuesday, and the first single from it has surged, reaching new peek positions on the Hot 100 (79, up from 90) and the Hip-Hop/R&B singles chart (eight, up from 10).

Adam Lambert: Adam makes a fourth Idol with a song in the top 10 on the adult contemporary chart. “Whataya Want From Me” is number 10, down a spot from a week ago. Adam’s “For Your Entertainment” album is number 77, a one-spot slide on the Billboard 200.

Kimberley Locke: “Strobelight” peaked at number five on the dance/club play chart two weeks ago. It has now fallen to 16.

Carrie Underwood: “Undo It” is number 10 on the country singles chart, down from six a week ago. “Play On” ranks seven among country albums, down two spots, and 48 on the Billboard 200, down 10 spots. But that’s still a high among Idols.
