Billboard Reveals Hot 100 March Madness Winner

SCREAM AND SHOUT!!!!

After three weeks of voting and hundreds of thousands of responses, we have a champion of the second annual Hot 100 March Madness -- and she looks a lot like last year's winner! Will.i.am & Britney Spears' "Scream & Shout" was voted the best song to reach the Top 5 of the Hot 100 chart over the past year, emerging from a field of 32 and giving Spears a repeat victory after the pop princess claimed the 2012 crown with "Hold It Against Me." Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" streaked into the Finals, but was no match for the pop star duo that met it in the final round. Scream, shout, let it all out -- Will.i.am and Britney Spears are your Hot 100 March Madness 2013 champs!



From April 1, 2012 through the charts dated March 9, 2013, there have been exactly 32 songs that appeared in the Top 5 of the Hot 100 chart. The head-to-head match-ups within this year's bracket were decided arbitrarily, and after four rounds of voting throughout the month of March, "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" and "Scream & Shout" emerged from their respective sides of the bracket. Click here to see the original bracket.

Looking back at the Finals of this year's Hot 100 March Madness, Will.i.am & Britney Spears began the final round of voting with a steady but not overwhelming lead over Kelly Clarkson, hovering around the 60 percent mark of the overall vote. In the final hours of voting, however, the diehards came out in droves: "Scream & Shout" finished with 84 percent of the final vote, giving the song its most lopsided victory in the entire competition! Comparatively, "Hold It Against Me" garnered 73 percent of fan votes last year, when the No. 1 single took down Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream."

Over the course of its five match-ups, "Scream & Shout" defeated One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful," Maroon 5's "One More Night," Katy Perry's "Wide Awake," P!nk's "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)" and Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" to win Hot 100 March Madness 2013 championship. Congratulations to Will.i.am and Britney Spears, and thanks to all who voted!

Review: The Saturdays- What About Us

The Saturdays- What About Us   9.5/10


This has really turned into one of my favorite songs at the moment.  First of all of the the band itself is great.  All of them sing and they are really nice from what I have seen.  Second of all the song is fantastic.  Just yesterday I legit repeated this song for over an hour.  I will admit this song is grower.  Back to the song.  At the beginning the way the song starts of is great and it had a bit of a tropical feel to it.  When we get to chorus that's when the song takes off.  There is just so much energy there and the melodies and harmonies are amazing.  I also love that everyone sings in this song and the breakdown is really really good.  Then Una's ad libs towards the end of the song is phenomenal.  Although it's a dance song it's unlike the other songs because it's less dub step which to me brings a more realness to the song.  I think it's connects more to a person because of the realness.Overall this song is simply amazing.
