We had a resurrection this week from One Direction – Live While We’re Young.  I apologize for the abridged nature this week.  The time simply wasn’t there.  Fortunately, not a lot went on this week.  This is the last regular countdown of 2012 and I’m sure that there’s going to be plenty of activity come the following weekend, because we’ve essentially gone a couple weeks without anything new, and there’s some stuff on HitBound that’s been there awhile…..
