Congratulations to Spoon's "Outlier" for entering our Hall of Fame. That's the second artist to retire two songs this year, following Sun Kil Moon, and again with a song that I wouldn't have expected. I suppose you guys like deep cuts. Excluding "Outlier's" retirement from the chart, the top 10 songs went on to this week. Note that due to a lack of nominations last week, two nominations were taken from the last available week (40).
