2 9 133 2004 Headstrong
Trapt are a hard rock band from the San Francisco Bay Area, and they've been together since 1995. 7 years after they initially formed they finally released their self-titled debut album. This was the lead-off track from it in 2003, and it was a total # 1 smash at U.S. rock radio during that Summer. It also crossed-over to become a TOP 20 pop smash. Once our chart had made its flip back to mainstream pop in 2004 it enjoyed a late run near the top of our chart. Trapt

9 14 137 2004 Here Without You
3 Doors Down followed-up their 6-times platinum 2000 album "The Better Life" with their triple-platinum 2002 album "Away From The Sun". It produced several long-running radio singles that kept it on the charts until well into 2004. Over the past few years this adult contemporary, pop, and rock smash has become a tribute anthem for the dearly departed. I dedicate it to the memory of Bill Van Riper - 'Music Man' (1955-2007). 3 Doors Down

2 20 399 2004 & 2005 I Don't Want To Be
2005 MASSIVE Memory Music Award Winner for Best Pop Rock Hit. Singer-Songwriter-Pianist-Guitarist Gavin DeGraw stormed onto our chart during the last couple of months of 2004 - and he stuck around well into 2005. His rockin' debut smash peaked at # 2 for 6 weeks in a row. I saw him LIVE in concert at 'Y-100.7's Summer Splash 2005' show in May right here in South Florida. Gavin DeGraw

1 22 373 2004 & 2005 Lose My Breath
Destiny's Child scored with 11 big hits on our chart from 1998 to 2005. They enjoyed their greatest success with their middle 5 hits from February 2000 to August 2001 when they never fell off of our chart, and each new single overlapped the previous one. This is the end of their career, as Beyoncé, Kelly, and Michelle embark on solo careers. This 2004 comeback smash is my favourite of all of their 11 hits. Destiny's Child

1 31 584 2004 Meant To Live
The 2004 MASSIVE Memory Music Award for Best Hard Rock song went to this chart-topper from San Diego's Switchfoot. It was the # 1 smash overall in 2004. Its 6 weeks at # 1 made it the 2ND longest-running chart-topper of 2004. Its 31 weeks on our chart made it the longest-running smash of 2004. We were "Meant To Live" for so much more. Have we lost ourselves ? Switchfoot

1 11 236 2004 Ocean Avenue
In 2004 as we flipped our format back to pop Yellowcard were 1 of 8 artists on our chart to hit # 1 with their debut single. This was on our chart for only 11 weeks, but the first 10 were all in our TOP 10, and 6 of them were in our TOP 3. There's a place off Ocean Avenue where I used to sit and talk with you. We were both 16 and it felt so right sleeping all day staying up all night. Staying up all night. Yellowcard

14 3 33 2004 Predictable
Good Charlotte are originally from the Charles County Maryland suburbs of Washington D.C. - not too far away from where Your's Truly grew up at. They are fronted by twin brothers Joel and Benji Madden. Billy Martin (guitarist and keyboardist) and Paul Thomas (bassist) round-out the band. This is from their 3RD album "The Chronicles Of Life And Death" which was released in October 2004. It was their follow-up album to 2002's "The Young And The Hopeless" which included the breakthrough smash "Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous". Good Charlotte

1 24 550 2004 The Reason
The 2004 MASSIVE Memory Music Award for Best Light Rock song went to this chart-topper from Doug Robb (lead vocalist), Dan Estrin (guitarist), Chris Hesse (drummer), and Markku Lappalainen (bassist). The four guys of Hoobastank are normal guys with normal lives who do normal things. They spent 8 very normal weeks at the top of our chart in May and June of 2004. Hoobastank

3 29 458 2004 This Love
The 2004 MASSIVE Memory Music Award for Best Pop Rock song went to this TOP 3 smash from Maroon 5. The Southern California quintet were MASSIVE in 2004 with relentless airplay on U.S. hit music and hot A.C. radio and countless television performances of 4 consecutive chart hits. They were also our # 1 artist of 2004. It's gonna be rather difficult for Maroon 5 to duplicate their MASSIVE success in 2004 in future years, but they'll be back to try for it again in 2005 and beyond. Maroon 5

1 16 312 2004 Yeah !
The 2004 MASSIVE Memory Music Award for Best Hip Hop song went to this krunk romp that spent 5 consecutive weeks at the top of our chart in the Spring of 2004. It was also the # 1 smash of the entire year at U.S. hit music radio. It was Usher's 5TH pop hit on our chart since his debut towards the end of 1997. He had previously hit with "You Make Me Wanna ...", "Pop Ya Collar", "U Remind Me", and "U Got It Bad". It was also the 1ST of 6 hits for Usher in 2004. He followed it up with "Burn", "Confessions Part 2", "If I Ain't Got You" (with Alicia Keys), "My Boo" (with Alicia Keys), and "Caught Up". Usher Ft. Ludacris & Lil Jon
