'Idol' Hot 100: "Already Gone" #26 (1/23/10)

It was another mixed bag for tracks by Idol alums on the latest edition of Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Jan. 23.

Leading the pack was Kelly Clarkson and her single "Already Gone," which should have already been gone from this chart had it not been for consistent sales and a steady climb in airplay. The song was actually up one spot, back into the Top 25 at #25 on the dot. This single just won't die!

Next up was Kris Allen, whose single "Live Like We're Dying" was off three spots to #33. Carrie Underwood's "Cowboy Casanova" and "Temporary Home" each went in opposite directions chart-wise, with the former declining #35-43 and the latter inclining #97-89.

Daughtry played the staying the same game with its "Life After You," as it held at #56, while Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" advanced five spots to #65.

Over on the Bubbling Under chart, Kellie Pickler saw her single "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" move up two spots to #10.
