After a month at number one, Go Fish drops steeply to number five with Shackles (Praise You). Taking the group’s place at number one is another group, Luminate, whose Banner of Love inches up 2-1 and becomes the ambient-pop group’s first number one hit. A slew of new debuts come in, including current Billboard Christian Songs chart number one 10000 Reasons (Bless the Lord) by Matt Redman, the new single of Kari Jobe Steady My Heart, and Finally Home, the comeback single of Kerrie Roberts.

After three weeks at number, YouTube star Kurt Schneider’s Bruno Mars Medley slips to number two in the wake of a huge debut, which should come as no surprise to folks who know I love K-Pop girl group Secret. Its previous single, the Japanese release Twinkle Twinkle, has been yo-yoing up and down the Top 10 chart, peaking at number two. This week, however, Secret’s latest single, a Japanese-language rehash of its hit single Love is Move, debuts at #1. It’s the first time a K-Pop single has gone to number one in its Japanese and Korean incarnations; Love is Move also topped my charts last year when it was released in Korea.
