Last Year’s #1: This Feeling - The Chainsmokers/Kelsea Ballerini [6/7 weeks at #1]
Countdown Extra: Don’t Let It Break Your Heart - Louis Tomlinson
Despite debuting pretty low, it’s actually quite a good sign for our next song, since it just came fresh out of one week in Hit-Bound. Blinding Lights by The Weeknd is hands-down my favourite song of the year so far. This is infinitely better than Heartless, as Abel has much more charisma in his voice, and the track works a lot better in this. This song has a great soaring synth-chorus thing, and the 80s vibe fits The Weeknd’s voice nicely. The great part is, this has already hit the top 10 on the Hot 100, and I can definitely see this being a hit here.
Right after that, we have If The World Was Ending by JP Saxe and Julia Michaels. I love this song also. (bad grammar = comedy) (trust me) Both JP and Julia sound really great together, and this song is a super nice ballad with some great writing. I mean, it’s Julia Michaels. If you don’t know what her writing is like, you obviously haven’t heard a song she’s written. And although she’s not the absolute most talented singer out there, she for sure makes up for it. This is a great song that probably won’t gain any traction here.
Apparently we’re going from worst to best on this week’s debuts, because of course my least favourite debut debuts one spot outside the top 20. Rare is Selena’s third single from her album of the same name, and I have to say, I prefered Lose You To Love Me and Look At Her Now. I feel like the simplicity really didn’t work out here. I am starting to get the appeal here, and it is quite catchy, but I just don’t enjoy her voice with the simple bassline and it can get quite boring at times. I would prefer if this was not a bigger hit than Lose You To Love Me, but that’s not really up to me. #voteforloseyoutolovemeeventhoughyoucan’t *i'm pretty sure you know what this sign means at this point
Best Debut: Blinding Lights - The Weeknd
Biggest DROP!!!: Lose You To Love Me - Selena Gomez (-17): Ah shoot. I really wish this was a bigger hit here. I mean, to be fair, it did hit #3, but I wish it stuck around for more than a week after that.
Biggest Jump: The Man - Taylor Swift (+27): Great! I’d love to see this become a hit, and I have no doubt it’ll hit #1 here. Or anywhere, for that matter.

After that, we have a surprisingly enjoyable song by some dude called Conan Gray. It’s called Maniac, and I actually really like this song. He has a really good voice, and the chorus is one of the catchiest choruses I’ve heard yet this year. Should this be a hit? Yeah, sure why not. This is one of the songs that I love that we get from new artists around this time of year. (Last year, Be Alright, You Say, Eastside) I’d love to see this debut soon.
We also get some more 5 Seconds of Summer this week, because Hits 1. Now, don’t get me wrong, Old Me isn’t bad. It’s not great though. Teeth was for sure better, because the rock vibe added a lot to the song, but this song is honestly kind of forgettable. Which is odd from a 5SOS song, because they always seem to give us pretty catchy stuff.
Finally, we have Modern Loneliness by Lauv. Um. This exists. It’s not good, but it’s not bad… it feels like a bit of a space-filler. The chorus isn’t bad- I mean, the whole song isn’t bad, but the chorus is pretty solid. If I’m being honest, this probably won’t do very well here. Even if it does, I highly doubt it’ll take off anywhere else.

If the world was blurbing, you’d come over, right?
We lost Anyone off of Hit-Bound this week. This is good, because that song was starting to get really grating with Demi sounding like she’s just barely hitting every. single. note.
Off of the countdown, we lost Raising Hell, I Hate LA and Yummy. I honestly don’t care about any of these dropouts. Raising Hell was just kind of boring. But I Hate LA and Yummy were really bad, and it’s glad to see Yummy drop, since I didn’t think Hits 1 would let that happen to a Justin Bieber song.
What Am I looks like it might be on its way out soon. I’m really happy with the amount of success this got, so I’m okay with that.
Some Kind Of Disaster is picking up all kinds of airplay this week, so I’m not too worried about it only jumping one spot.
Glad to see Cuz I Love You and Wanted not performing well.
10/10 jumped over 10 spots this week, and is looking very close to the top 20, which would be great, because I actually kind of love this song.
However, can we please not have Fight in the top 20?
For some reason, I'm really liking You should be sad right now. So that's what's new.
I’m kind of okay with Demons being in the top 20, but did it really have to bring everything i wanted with it?
ROXANNE, ROXANNE! ALL SHE WANNA DO IS PARTY ALL NIGHT!!! (We love to hear it)
Before You Go and hot girl bummer made it into the top 10 this week, which is nice since both songs are amazing.
What A Man Gotta Do be checking out that top 5 right there.
