Hot Tracks That Should Have Been Hits
Compiled from Mel's Current Top 20 charts

CHART NOTES: 2022 - The Year That Was
Sometimes what was once popular at the beginning of the year and well liked by me, is no longer true at year’s end.
Such is the status of my #1 song of 2022: Alesso and Katy Perry’s duet of “When I’m Gone” was a great hit for me at the beginning of 2022. The song made its debut on the Current Top 20 on January 21 and by February 4 it was #1 where it held the top spot for three consecutive weeks. The song was replaced at #1 by Oliver Tree’s quirky “Cowboys Don’t Cry” on February 24 before returning to #1 again on March 11 for another thee week run.
“When I’m Gone” is the only song on this past year’s top 20 to hold the #1 spot for 6 weeks in two three week spurts. Overall it was on the chart for a total of 19 weeks before falling off on May 19.
The #2 song should have been my #1 song of 2022. “Bones” by Imagine Dragons held the #1 spot for four consecutive weeks and was on the chart for 20 weeks. Three other songs held at #1 for 4 weeks, but compiled less than 20 weeks each of a total chart run.
Overall while two Imagine Dragons songs went to #1 this year, none of them made a serious impact on the mainstream pop charts. I thought both “Bones” and “Sharks” were outstanding songs for 2022.
Most of the songs on the top 10 for 2022 are not generally mainstream except for those by Adele and Taylor Swift. Songs by Vance Joy, Milky Chance, and Cannons are from the alternative rock/pop genre, while BLACKPINK’s “Shut Down” is a K-Pop song. “Thank God” by the duo of Kane & Katelyn Brown are from the country genre.
