It is a third week at the top for Gym Class Heroes with the sweet sounds of "Stereo Heart." Surging just behind is David Guetta moving to #2 looking for his first pop radio chart topper. Katy Perry moves into the top 10 for the sixth time with a song from her Teenage Dream album, and Rihanna's "You Da One" makes the strongest radio debut since Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" last spring.
