Three weeks after it first hit the top, Flo Rida's "Whistle" is back at #1 this week. However, it is hard to know whether it will stay there next week as Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" continues to progress in radio airplay and Maroon 5's "One More Night" makes a strong move to #3 this week. OneRepublic are back in the Hot 100 at #61 iwth their new song "Feel Again" which has strong sales out of the box.
