There were more ups than downs for Idol-related tracks on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Sept. 11.
Seeming to take a breather this week was Adam Lambert, whose "If I Had You" held steady at #32 for the second week in a row. Carrie Underwood's "Undo It" continued its downward trend, however, as it was off five spots to #61.
Fantasia's "Bittersweet" started to make more headway after falling back a few spots last week, advancing #82-74. And Daughtry's "September" moved ahead five spots to #80.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "If I Had You" #42 (8/28/10)
Just like in that new Jennifer Aniston / Jason Bateman movie, there was a switch that took place among Idol-related tracks on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Aug. 28.
Adam Lambert's latest single "If I Had You" finally surpassed Carrie Underwood's leggy "Undo It," as the former rose 12 spots to #42 while the latter slid nine spots to #45. This is the first time since the week of June 12 that "Undo It" has not led artists from the franchise.
Continuing to make strides thanks to recent publicity was Fantasia's "Bittersweet," which was up #90-79 ahead of her album release today. And Daughtry's latest single "September" was up three spots to #91.

Hot 100
42 54 Adam Lambert, "If I Had You"

'Idol' Hot 100: Carrie Underwood's "Undo It" #36 (8/21/10)
There were a few more signs of life shown among Idol-related tracks on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Aug. 21.
It was no surprise that Carrie Underwood once again led the charge, with her single "Undo It" sliding 10 spots to #36.
The single that looks to be the heir apparent of "Undo It," Adam Lambert's "If I Had You," inched ahead two spots to #54. Fantasia also saw her current single make headway up the chart, possibly due to her OD controversy last week. "Bittersweet" was up #94-90.
To add to things, Daughtry's "September" debuted on the Hot 100 at #94.

'Idol' Hot 100: Carrie Underwood's "Undo It" #26 (8/14/10)
There was no real rhyme or reason to how Idol-related tracks performed on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Aug. 14.
Carrie Underwood's "Undo It" finally cooled off this week as evidenced but the track's two-spot drop to #26. Adam Lambert, on the other hand, saw his "If I Had You" spurt ahead 13 spots to #56 on the heels of increased airplay.
Fantasia's "Bittersweet" seems to be following in the footsteps of Kelly Clarkson's "All I Ever Wanted," as the former rose just one spot to #94 on the chart. Expect it to start going backwards relatively soon.
On the Bubbling Under chart, however, Daughtry held on with an 11-spot jump to #2 for latest single "September." Expect a debut on the main chart by this time next week.

Adam Lambert premieres "If I Had You" music video on VH1.com
VH1.com this afternoon premiered Adam Lambert's latest music video. In his third music video (not counting that sloshy "Time For Miracles" crap), Adam opts for the most eccentric forest party one could imagine for his latest single off For Your Entertainment, "If I Had You." Watch the video below to come to your own consensus of what exactly is going on:
If you ask me, it seems that Adam is going for Twilight meets an even acidier Alice in Wonderland that would probably be described as one of New York's hottest clubs by Bill Hader's Stephan character during SNL's Weekend Update segment in what is surely a tribute to his Burning Man days. Although I guess if anyone can make it work, it's Adam, so more power to him.
