Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" was off four spots to #28, marking a slow but sure decline. Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" retained its position in the Top 50, as it decreased #48-50.
Carrie Underwood was the sole alum who saw her single made headway on the chart, as "Undo It" propelled 22 spots ahead to #73, emblematic of what should hopefully be a prosperous chart life for what could be a summer crossover hit. And Kelly Clarkson's "All I Ever Wanted" looks to end its brief run on the Hot 100 thanks to another two-spot drop to #100 this week.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" #24 (5/22/10)
Adam Lambert kicked things off with "Whataya Want From Me," as it was off six spots to #24. Kris Allen outdid him, however, as his own "Live Like We're Dying" fell #41-48.
Carrie Underwood was up next with a pair of her singles, as the fading "Temporary Home" held on for one more week with a #84-93 decline, while she followed with her up and coming single "Undo It" burst onto the chart at #95.
And Kelly Clarkson finished things off with "All I Ever Wanted," which was down another spot to #98. Look for a quick exit in a week or two.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me #18 (5/15/10)
Adam Lambert once again held on to the top spot among Idol alums, as his single "Whataya Want From Me" was off five spots to #15. Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" fell out of the top 40, as it was off eight spots to #41.
Next up was Carrie Underwood, whose "Temporary Home" continued its downward slide with a #61-84 drop. And Kelly Clarkson's "All I Ever Wanted" was actually down one spot to #97 after holding steady at #96 for two weeks. If this pattern continues, this will be one of Kelly's weakest performing singles to date.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" #13 (5/8/10)
Adam Lambert's newly platinum "Whataya Want From Me" remained in the top spot among Idol alums, although it slipped three spots to #13. Kris Allen actually followed the trend set by Adam, as his single "Live Like We're Dying" continued its leggy run but was also down three spots to #33.
The one highlight of the chart came along with Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home," which got a post-ACM Awards boost and was actually up #73-61. Fellow winner Kelly Clarkson didn't have much luck with her latest release "All I Ever Wanted," as it held steady at #96. Not a good sign to be stalling so early in its run.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" #10 (5/1/10)
The single rocketed #23-10 on the chart on the heels of a big Idol week, where Adam served as mentor and musical performer. This is, of course, Adam's first Top 10 hit in addition to being the first Top 10 single by a Season 8 alum.
Up next was Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying," which held steady at #30 for the second straight week. Daughtry saw its current release "Life After You" drop 10 spots to #61, which suggest it might depart the chart entirely sooner than later.
It was Carrie Underwood, however, who saw her single suffer the largest drop, as "Temporary Home" was off 18 spots to #73. And then there was Kelly Clarkson, whose "All I Ever Wanted" inched ahead three spots to #96, which could either be the beginning of a lengthy run or a brief appearance.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" #23 (4/24/10)
Holding at #23 for the second straight week was Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From." The single will likely see a new peak by this time next week thanks to a big performance on last night's Idol results show.
Falling four spots on the latest chart was Kris Allen's "Live Like We Were Dying," was it landed at #30 on the dot in this go 'round. Also down this week was Daughtry's "Life After You," although it was off a heftier five spots to #51.
Although Carrie Underwood's single "Temporary Home" didn't suffer as steep of a decline this week as it did the previous week, it was still down #52-55. But Kelly Clarkson made things a little bit more exciting, as her latest release "All I Ever Wanted" debuted at #99.

'Idol' Hot 100: Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" #23 (4/17/10)
After cracking the Top 20 on last week's chart, Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" was off three spots to #23. It will probably be back on a positive track following his mentoring sessions and performance her shown on next week's episodes of Idol.
Kris Allen followed suit, as his sole charting song "Live Like We're Dying" was also off three spots to #26. Daughtry's single suffered the second-worst decline, though, as its "Life After You" decreased nine spots to #46.
But it was Carrie Underwood who saw her entry crumble the most, as "Temporary Home" became only her second official single to miss the Top 40. It went backwards #41-52, signaling what is very likely the end of small positive movements on the chart.

For the second straight week, Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" was the top Idol-related entry on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of April 10.
The single rose one spot to #20, marking his first song to reach the coveted spot on the chart. Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying," however, regressed one rank to #23.
Daughtry's "Life After You" a kept up with this minuscule movement trend, as it was up #38-37. Maybe this will be another "Already Gone" and will not peak until somewhere in late summer? And Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" held its ground at #41 for the second week in a row.

After weeks of Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" reigning among Idol-related tracks, there was a changing of the guard on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of April 3.
This week, Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" was up one spot to #21, while Kris' "Dying" fell down three spots to #22. Daughtry also experienced negative movement with its single "Life After You," which was off another two spots to #38.
And Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" advanced #44-41, looking for a Top 40 placement by next week's chart.

'Idol' Hot 100: Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" #19 (3/27/10)
Kicking things off at #19 was Kris Allen's single "Live Like We're Dying," which marks the second time it as appeared in the Top 20 (it debuted at #18 last September). Nipping at its heels was "Whataya Want From Me" by Adam Lambert, having another week of upward movement thanks to a #25-22 climb.
Up next was Daughtry's "Life After You," which has seen some good airplay gains recently. It was up three spots to #36. Carrie Underwood did the boys one better, as her "Temporary Home" advanced by four spots to #44.
And Artists for Haiti's "We Are the World" charity single featuring Jordin Sparks, Jennifer Hudson and Katharine McPhee among others, saw its last week on the chart, was it collapsed #66-96. So much for trying to recreate the success of the original 25 years ago.

'Idol' Hot 100: Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" #20 (3/20/10)
There were more backward movements than there were forward movements when it came to tracks by Idol alums on the most recent edition of the Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of March 20.
Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" kicked things off having slid two spots to #20. Kris also saw his charity single of his live performance of "Let It Be" pull back seven spots to #70 in its second week.
Adam Lambert more or less followed suit with his single "Whataya Want From Me," which declined #24-25, while Daughtry's "Life After You" was up another two spots to #39.
Another positive advancement was had in "Temporary Home" by Carrie Underwood, which was up #52-48 thanks to increases in airplay. The Idol-related track that had the biggest tumble was Artists for Haiti's "We Are the World" charity single featuring Jordin Sparks, Jennifer Hudson and Katharine McPhee among others. The single continued its crumble towards the edge of the chart with a 30-spot drop to #66.
And Danny Gokey's "My Best Days Are Ahead of Me" finally emerged onto the Hot 100 with a #82 bow off the heels of his debut album release and performance on Idol's results show last Thursday.

Digital sales roundup: "Live Like We're Dying" #22 (3/20/10)
Due to the likely absence of my usual source for Soundscan figures on Idol-related charts and sales figures for the foreseeable future, I am going to have to rely on other sources, mainly Brian Mansfield of USAToday.com's excellent Idol Chatter blog. So with that, here are data from Billboard's Hot Digital Songs chart.
Kris Allen kicked things off with his single "Live Like We're Dying," which came in at #22, down three spots from the previous week thanks to a 10% sales drop to 57k downloads, putting its total at a clean 1.057 million to date. Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" held steady at #23 in light of a 7% decrease in sales, adding in 54k downloads for a new total of 597k.
There were some good numbers put up by debuts, including 40k for Kris's live charity performance of "Let It Be" and the Spanish language "Somos El Mundo: 25 por Haiti" featuring David Archuleta netted 15k for the week.

Two tracks by country artists rounded out Idol representation on the Hot 100, as Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" advanced #61-54, while Kellie Pickler's "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" finally, finally made it onto the main chart with a #99 debut after languishing on the Bubbling Under chart for weeks.

'Idol' Hot 100: "Live Like We're Dying" #24 (2/20/10)
There was more of the same to be had by Idol alums according to the latest edition of Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Feb. 20.
Boredom is beginning to set in when looking at the chart performance of Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying," which was off one spot to #24 this week. Although it's most likely a temporary setback, it's still a little disappointing to see it slide back during its current hot streak. "Already Gone," on the other hand, has gone as far as it can go for Kelly Clarkson and so its four-spot drop to #34 was nothing unexpected.
Adam Lambert was able to hold onto the #35 with "Whataya Want From Me" for the second week in a row. Daughtry's "Life After You" was down one spot to #52, and Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" was the only Idol-related track on the Hot 100 to see positive movement, as it was up nine spots to #61.
On the Bubbling Under chart, Kellie Pickler saw her latest effort "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" advanced #3-1, signaling a good chance of a debut on the main chart next week.

'Idol' Hot 100: "Live Like We're Dying" #23 (2/13/10)
Kicking things off with a three-spot jump to #23 was Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying." The track shows no signs of slowing down and should cross the Top 20 barrier sometime in the next two weeks.
Next up was "Already Gone" by Kelly Clarkson, which rose a similar three spots to #30 despite the decreased sales and airplay stats. Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want From Me" advanced #37-35, while Daughtry's "Life After You" moved ahead #57-51.
And Kellie Pickler's latest single "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You" continued to languish on the Bubbling Under chart, moving ahead #4-3 this week.
The last two tracks on the Hot 100 were from Carrie Underwood. "Cowboy Casanova" was off six spots to #61 and "Temporary Home" jumped 12 spots to #70.

The song surged 80% to 25.3k, up 70 spots to #72 for a total of 40.9k after less than two weeks.
And Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" moved ahead on the chart six spots to #113 despite a 1% slide to 16.9k downloads. Its total is now 145.6k and will most likely see a nice bump thanks to the music video release.

It was primarily a down week for tracks by Idol alums on the latest edition of Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the chart week of Feb. 6.
And then it was back to the downward slide. Carrie Underwood's "Cowboy Casanova" was off a whole 10 spots to #55, while Daughtry's "Life After You" was down nine spots of its own. Carrie did see good news from this chart, however, with her "Temporary Home" inching ahead #84-82.
