Thursday Billboard Update - 1/3/13

(I know this is a week old, but I didn't realize I never posted it until this morning.)

As is the case with the first chart updates of a new year, there are no new albums to report on, but a few did benefit from a random sale on Amazon. Let's move on.

Bruno Mars' Locked Out Of Heaven nabs a 4th week atop the Hot 100, and PSY's Gangnam Style (19-6) re-enters the top 10.
