'Idol' Hot 100: "Already Gone" #28 (1/9/09)

There were more mixed chart movements for tracks by Idol alums on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Jan. 9, some of which saw huge swings in different directions thanks to the big increase in sales from gift cards being redeemed.

Kelly Clarkson's "Already Gone" was among those tracks that decreased much greater than it probably would have had it not been for these special circumstances, as it was down 10 spots to #28. Carrie Underwood's most popular track at the current time, "Cowboy Casanova," saw the opposite happen, as it was up 10 spots to #29.

Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" was up albeit minimally (one spot) to #32, while Daughtry's "Life After You" followed suit and was up one spot to #57. And Adam Lambert's single "Whataya Want From Me" increased four spots to #68.

Meanwhile over on the Bubbling Under chart, Kellie Pickler's "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" slipped #12-18.
