Leading all Idol alums on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week of Oct. 18 was David Cook, whose "Light On" debuted at #17 thanks to strong digital sales. Although it will surely suffer a hefty fall next week, a Top 20 debut is never a bad thing. Jordin Sparks was next up with "One Step At a Time," which once again demonstrated amazing legs by remaining at #21.
David Archuleta followed closely behind with "Crush," which moved #20-25 for the week, while Jennifer Hudson's "Spotlight" saw upward mobility again thanks to a seven-spot advance to #29. Carrie Underwood's "Just a Dream" also improved #43-41.
Daughtry saw little movement with "What About Now," which dropped two spots to #56, while Bucky Covington's latest single, "I'll Walk," debuted on the chart at #93. The lone Idol-related track on the Bubbling Under chart was Kellie Pickler's "Don't You Know You're Beautiful," which stood at #3.

This song is sucking harder than a NY hooker on Saturday night - It has dropped like a rock down to #38on itunes! Come on folks, when is the elephant in the room gonna be acknowledged? Light On is a huge disappointment ladies and gentleman, and there is no spin that can be concocted to cover it up. RCA and David need to take a hard look at retooling that song, because I'm not certain the album will be any different. It is deflating to see the song flopping.. and all the OGFAR! and denial will not make this go away... hoping against hope more promotion or something will help....
Your song might be a flop if..... Weird Al Yankovic is outselling you (#27)! Light On PWNED by Weird Al...... priceless.
