(NB: The playlist is in ALPHABETICAL order of the song and NOT in the order they
appear on the chart)
*THIS CHART IS ONLY A PORTION (TOP 30) OF A TOP 50 CHART.
HENCE songs are not deemed to have fallen off the charts UNTIL they are
OUTSIDE/BELOW the top 50 and NOT the top 30 broadcasted on air. This IS
reflected in the year end 'jamz' and explains partially why songs peaking
significantly lower than others may still finish ahead of them on the
year-end charts.

Katy Perry Dominates Digital Songs, 'E.T.' Climbs Hot 100
As Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" remains atop the Billboard Hot 100 for a fifth week -- its entire chart run -- Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" becomes the first album to yield four No. 1s on Digital Songs, as "E.T.," featuring Kanye West, flies 5-1 with 216,000 downloads sold (up 30%), according to Nielsen SoundScan.
"E.T." follows "California Gurls," the title cut and "Firework" to the Digital Songs summit. The Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, Rihanna and Justin Timberlake had each previously posted three Digital Songs leaders from a single album.
On the Hot 100, "E.T." charges 8-3 with Digital Gainer honors. Also fueling its Hot 100 advance is a 38-24 vault on Radio Songs (44 million audience impressions, up 32%, according to Nielsen BDS).
Katy Perry Gives Glimpse of 'California Dreams' Tour in New Video
Between Lady Gaga and Perry on the Hot 100, Cee-Lo Green's "F**k You (Forget You)" ranks at No. 2 for a fourth consecutive week.
Rihanna's "S&M" dips 3-4 but claims the Hot 100's Airplay Gainer award. The saucy song becomes her 16th top 10 (12-9) on Radio Songs (77 million audience impressions, up 22%), tying her with Janet Jackson for second-most top 10s among women in the chart's 21-year history. Mariah Carey leads all artists with 23 top 10s on the radio airplay ranking.
Dating only to her first week in the Radio Songs top 10 July 2, 2005, Rihanna's 16 top 10s outpace the amount of her closest female competitor, Beyonce, who has banked nine in that span.
Rihanna Discusses Father's Betrayal, Pressures of Being a Role Model
Jennifer Lopez's "On the Floor" maintains its No. 5 Hot 100 ranking, while P!nk's "F**kin' Perfect" slips 4-6. As previously reported, "Perfect" ascends to No. 1 on both the Pop Songs and Adult Pop Songs radio airplay charts.
Bruno Mars' "Grenade" falls 6-7 on the Hot 100 and Enrique Iglesias' former No. 4 hit "Tonight (I'm Lovin' You)," featuring Ludacris and DJ Frank E, rebounds 9-8.
Britney Spears' "Till the World Ends" powers 20-9 in its second week on the Hot 100, marking her 10th career top 10. Five of her last six singles, since 2008, account for half that sum. She tallied her first five top 10s between 1998 and 2007. After its first full week of retail availability, "World" bounds 10-5 on Digital Songs (158,000, up 36%). It jumps 68-47 on Radio Songs (26 million, up 56%), thanks in part to a No. 26 debut on Pop Songs.
Rounding out the Hot 100's top bracket, Ke$ha's "Blow" drops 7-10, although it edges 28-27 (41 million, up 6%) on Radio Songs.
Sixteen songs enter the Hot 100, four of which belong to the "Glee" cast, including "Landslide," featuring Gwyneth Paltrow, the chart's Hot Shot Debut at No. 23. The troupe's take on the classic song (115,000 downloads) spurs sales gains for prior notable versions by Dixie Chicks (17,000, up 897%), Fleetwood Mac (11,000, up 252%) and Smashing Pumpkins (1,000, up 151%).
The "Glee" cast also arrives with remakes of Joan Jett's "Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah)" (No. 57), Neon Trees' "Animal" (No. 62) and Prince's "Kiss" (No. 83).
'Glee's' New Directions, Blaine and Kurt Score Big at Regionals
Seether's "Country Song," the first single from "Holding On to Strings Better Left to Fray," due May 17, starts at No. 74 on the Hot 100. It concurrently blasts onto Rock Songs at No. 18 (5.2 million in first-week audience) and Rock Digital Songs at No. 6 (33,000 downloads).
Also new to the Hot 100 are Snoop Dogg's "Boom," featuring T-Pain (No. 76), from the former artist's forthcoming album "Doggumentary," and Avril Lavigne's "Wish You Were Here," an album cut from the singer/songwriter's fourth studio set "Goodbye Lullabye," which launches at No. 4 on the Billboard 200.

R.I.P. to hip-hop legend Nate Dogg
G-Funk Legend Nate Dogg Dead at 41
One of the most distinct voices of the G-funk era in hip-hop, rapper Nate Dogg, passed away yesterday, March 15th, the rapper's family confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter. He was 41. Nate Dogg, born Nathaniel D. Hale, had suffered strokes in both 2007 and 2008, but his death has been attributed to "complications from multiple strokes," his lawyer Mark Geragos said. Often recruited to adorn choruses in Death Row Records' glory days, Nate Dogg exploded onto the music scene as Warren G's gat-busting partner-in-crime on the hit "Regulate." Nate also frequently collaborated with his high school friend Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Tupac Shakur, Eminem, and 50 Cent.
The biggest tracks to feature Nate Dogg, a four-time Grammy nominee, include Dr. Dre's "The Next Episode," Ludacris' "Area Codes," 50 Cent's "21 Questions," Eminem's "Shake That" and, our personal favorite, his own solo track "Never Leave Me Alone" with Snoop Dogg. In addition to appearing on every great rap album from The Chronic to Doggystyle to All Eyez on Me to Get Rich or Die Tryin', Nate released three solo albums on his own. He also made the "Eastside Hotel" one of the most famous locales in hip-hop history.
"We lost a true legend in hip-hop and R&B. One of my best friends and a brother to me since 1986 when I was a sophomore at Poly High where we met," Snoop Dogg said on Twitter. "You will always be with me forever and a day. You put the 'G' in 'G funk', you put the '1' in '213' and you put your stamp on everybody you ever did it with. I miss you because I am so sad but so happy I got to grow up with you, and I will see you again in heaven, because you know the slogan about 'all doggs go to heaven.' "

Editor's note: This morning Yahoo! ran an incorrect photo in its Front Page coverage of the death of Nate Dogg. Unfortunately, the wire service had misidentified him in that photo. It was corrected ASAP. Apologies -- RIP Nate Dogg.

The Top 40 Adult Pop Songs
Fifteen years ago this week - in the March 16, 1996 issue - Billboard premiered the 40-position Nielsen BDS-based Adult Pop Songs radio airplay chart. To celebrate, our expert charts staff has compiled a new list of the chart's top 40 hottest hits over its history. Scroll to the bottom of this page to read exactly how the Top 40 Adult Pop Songs (1996-2011) tally was tabulated.
While Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men's ballad "One Sweet Day" led the inaugural list back in 1996, before long the weekly chart would routinely boast No. 1s from such eventual alternative-leaning format mainstays as Matchbox Twenty and Nickelback. Today, uptempo dance/pop from Katy Perry and P!nk has become as much a part of the format's core texture.
The Adult Pop Songs chart "shows the variety of music that appeals to adults," says Pete Cosenza, Columbia Records senior VP/promotion, adult formats. "You can see how so many of the format's hit songs and artists are a big part of pop culture."
From smashes featured on "Grey's Anatomy" to "American Idol," to some of the best-selling downloads of the digital era, this list captures the top 40 titles from the Adult Pop Songs chart's first decade-and-a-half.
Count down from No. 40 to No. 1, as we recap the format's biggest songs so far. And, to quote the cut that places at No. 19, "Sing along with every song" you know.

HOW THIS CHART WAS FORMULATED
Billboard's Adult Pop Songs 15th anniversary retrospective is based on titles' actual performance on the weekly Adult Pop Songs chart since the list launched the week of March 16, 1996.
Songs are ranked based on an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at No. 40 earning the least.
To ensure equitable representation of the biggest hits from the past 15 years, time frames were weighted to account for differences in slower turnover rates during the chart's earlier years, due, in part, to subsequent changes in recurrent rules.
