listenCheck out this week's edition of the chart as a handy dandy playlist or just click the play button to listen to the podcast version.
Besides counting down this week's most popular music on CBC Radio 3, you'll also hear the songs that you voted as The Best Songs That Only Ever Made It To #2!
Your excitement about all of that may be curbed by the breaking news that The Elwins - the great and trustworthy band from Keswick, Ontario - almost lived off the avails of a stolen riff!!
Because their song is this week's Highest Debut, we asked Matthew Sweeney an R3-30 FunClub Question: Have you ever stolen anything? Here's just a bit of Matthew's answer: "I think maybe once I stole a riff from one of my favourite songwriters, actually...I had this song going and I was like, man, this is so good..."
Find out who the songwriter was, and what The Elwins decided to do about it on today's show!
And, before you go putting on your judging pants, have you ever stolen anything?
