Countdown Extra: 100 Ways - Jackson Wang

All three of our entrants this week notched in at the bottom three spots on the countdown. So we’re kicking it off at #30 with MAMACITA by the Black Eyed Peas, Ozuna and J. Rey Soul. I’m not entirely sold on the whole spanish Black Eyed Peas thing yet, but I liked RITMO, and I don’t hate this, but I think BEP just did some better stuff before. I appreciate that they’re putting female artists in their songs, and I think J. Rey Soul does a fantastic job vocally and charismatically here. She mixes really well with will.i.am and the whole idea of the song, so I think that was a really great choice, but I don’t love Ozuna. He’s alright and everything, but I just find his parts kind of boring. Overall, the song’s pretty catchy and I love the chorus, but the verses bring this down a lot for me.

Our final debut is yet another Taylor Swift song from her album Lover, this one being called Cruel Summer. This is for sure one of the best songs from the album, although not being in my top 3 (it probably lands in the top 5 though). Taylor’s vocals are amazing as always, and this song is very catchy. I love the bridge, and the lyrics in it are fantastic. Even though this isn’t a single, I wouldn’t mind if Hits 1 pushes this song and it does well here.

Our final entrant this week is a re-entry from Doja Cat and Gucci Mane, called Like That. Overall, I’m glad that this re-entered because this is becoming a hit. Although I don’t love it, I’m still happy it’s here.

Best Debut: Cruel Summer - Taylor Swift

Biggest DROP!!!: Stuck with U - Ariana Grande/Justin Bieber & Intentions - Justin Bieber/Quavo (-7): A bad week for Justin Bieber. Stuck with U is extremely forgettable, so I don’t really care that it’s dropping, and although Intentions is a hit, I’m starting to lose interest in it, do I don’t care about that one either.

Biggest Jump: Supalonely - BENEE/Gus Dapperton (+10): Why the heck is this in the top 20? I thought it was gonna flop here. Oh well.

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Hard To Forget - Sam Hunt

My Favourite Song Last Year: I Don’t Care - Ed Sheeran/Justin Bieber

My Least Favourite Song Last Year: bad guy - Billie Eilish

Hit-Bound
Breaking Me - Topic/A7S [2*]
Moral of the Story - Ashe/Niall Horan [7; 2nd time]
Don’t Rush - Young T & Bugsey/Headie One [1]
Let’s Fall in Love for the Night - FINNEAS [5*]
Together - Sia [5*]
Falling - Harry Styles [3*]
Black And White - Niall Horan [3*]
100 Ways - Jackson Wang [9*]
Daisies - Katy Perry [6*]
Kings & Queens - Ava Max [9*]
Bang! - AJR [8]
17 - Pink Sweat$ [13*]
Man - JoJo [2*]
Heartless - Diplo/Julia Michaels/Morgan Wallen [1; 2nd time]
Ur So F**kInG cOoL - Tones And I [3]

Also Available For Vote
ROCKSTAR - DaBaby/Roddy Ricch [3**]

So Moral of the Story is probably gonna debut next week. Why, you may ask? Because Niall Horan remixed it and you know how much Hits 1 loves Niall. I didn’t like the song before, but I like it a lot less now. Niall actually really doesn’t sound good surprisingly, and his voice doesn’t really mix well with the song at all. Yeah, I really don’t like this anymore.

Dang, we’ve been getting a lot of rap songs lately. Our only real Hit-Bound debut this week is Don’t Rush by Young T & Bugsey and Headie One. They’re from the UK, and you can really hear it. I love their accents, and they work really well with the song. The production’s pretty minimalistic, but it works. I don’t think their voices have that much charisma, and that brings down the song slightly, but not too much. Overall, it’s decent.

Heartless left the countdown and re-entered Hit-Bound this week. I’m glad it’s not gone, but I’m sad it’s not on the countdown anymore.

Overall Score: 53/80 = 66%

Ooooooh, Oh, Oh, It’s a Cruuuuuel Blurber

Our countdown exits this week are: In Your Eyes, Heartless and me & ur ghost. Although In Your Eyes flopped a little on the Hot 100, it still had potential to do well here, and I’m sad it didn’t. me & ur ghost was never a hit, unlike hot girl bummer, so I wish it flopped earlier, since it was only mediocre.

We lost two Hit-Bound songs this week… kind of. Both CITY OF ANGELS and the other girl are gone, but both had already debuted the countdown. I liked them both, but I don’t care that they’re gone because they did debut the countdown.

Why did Roses drop? It’s literally in the top 10 on the Hot 100!

The Box dropped? Why?

Why is Rain On Me almost out of the top 20? It’s a huge hit, and it should’ve jumped.

Also, why is death bed in the top 20?

Our new #1 is Old Me… because 5SOS. Great.

    No Don’t Rush DaBaby remix is so much better than Headie One I always love DaBaby and I never know Headie One
