10 @ 10: 4/13 fun. remains on top

What a week for fun.! In addition to topping the Billboard Hot 100 for the 6th straight week, they top the 10@10 for a 2nd week in a row. Fun. holds off former 6 week number 1 "Somebody That I Used To Know" by Gotye  f/ Kimbra. Elsewhere the new Black Keys song "Gold on the Ceiling" rises 4-3, breaking a top 3 that seemed inseparable as Neon Trees "Everybody Talks" falls one from 3-4, making it the first time in 5 weeks the song has not left the top 3. The Foo Fighters' "These Days" holds at no. 5 for a 2nd straight week to round out the top 5.

Billboard News: fun. Tops for a 6th week as they make history, Nicki Minaj tops album chart

"We Are Young" is a song that many people have praised for it's catchiness and "hipster vibe". and this week it makes a couple of milestones while topping the Hot 100:

- "We Are in Young" becomes the first song in chart history to sell 300k+ digital copies in 6 straight weeks
- The song also becomes the first songs to simultaneously top the Hot 100 and the Alternative Songs chart history; the Alt. chart was created on September 10, 1988 and no song has accomplished this feat (although  Coldplay's "Viva La Vida topped the Hot 100 on June 28, 2008, then topped the Alt. Songs chart 2 months later on  August 30, 2008)

Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" moves 3-2 and concurrently slides 1-2 on the aforementioned Alternative Songs chart, by doing this the top two Alt. Songs become the first two songs to be 1 & 2 on the Hot 100.

Elsewhere, Nicki Minaj's "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" tops the Billboard 200 with 253,000 sold, beating out Adele's "21" which moves back to No. 2 with 153,000 sold. Nicki's single "Starship's" is at No. 6 on the Hot 100.
