Interesting facts from 2013 totals: P!nk climbed one position to #2 but dropped in total plays. Zac Brown Band dropped a couple spots with Roger Miller climbed one. Jim Croce was the highest debuting artist when his 91 plays slid him into the #10 spot.  Ed Sheeran earned the top individual song of 2013 and eeked into the top total plays at #18.  The biggest drop among artists that remained in the Top 20 was Bruno Mars who fell 7 spots as his sophomore album really turned me off him.  Overall, 14 of the 20 artists were in last year’s chart.
