Week of April 24, 2021 - Conan Gray (1)

Hey guys! We're down to the Final Four for March Madness and I can't reveal the finals until I get at least one more response, because both of them ended in a tie, so that would be super helpful. This week was... interesting. Some stuff happened, but a lot of it was good. Our Hit-Bound Dropouts list just continues to grow. Here are our exits for this week.

Countdown Extra: Serotonin - girl in red

Remember Regard from his song Ride It last year? Because he now has his second song on the Countdown this week with You with Troye Sivan and Tate McRae. This is slightly better than Ride It, but not by a ridiculous amount. Troye Sivan sounds fantastic here, as he always does. As for Tate McRae, I don't think her voice really fits that well with EDM. The drop in the chorus isn't great and I don't love it. There's no pitched-down vocals this time, so that's good, but yeah, this song still isn't great.

Remember That Night? actually re-entered this week at #28. I definitely wasn't expecting this, but I'm super happy that it's back, as it's good.

Biggest DROP!!!: Therefore I Am - Billie Eilish (-6): Hahaaaa, two weeks in a row, let's go. Hopefully this is its last week.

Biggest Jump: deja vu - Olivia Rodrigo (+15): Okay then. I don't love this song, but I'm not disappointed that it's all the way up to #7.

Follow You - Imagine Dragons [4]

This next artist, ROSÉ, actually comes from the k-pop group BLACKPINK. I definitely don't mind BLACKPINK. Their songs are decent. Anyways, this is ROSÉ's first solo single and I really like it. I think ROSÉ sounds really good here and I really like the chorus in this song. The production is actually quite interesting and I think it fits quite well with her voice. Overall, this is just a really solid song and I hope it becomes a hit.

Our Countdown Extra this week, Serotonin by girl in red also debuts Hit-Bound this week. I'm kind of conflicted on this song. I don't hate the instrumentation here, but I'm not too sold on her voice, especially in the verses. The chorus is fine, but other than that, I don't really love this one and I don't have much else to say on this one.

The lead artist from this next song, CAL apparently came from the band Timeflies, which had a pretty big song on Hits 1 back in the day, Once In a While. I really enjoyed that song and today he brings us a song with Quinn XCII, In the Water. This song is definitely fun. Both artists sound quite good here and I really like the melody in the chorus. Yeah, this is just a fun song and I hope it debuts.

First Time left the Countdown this week and re-entered Hit-Bound, which sucks because I really like that song.

All I See Is Blurbs, Is Blurbs, Is Blurbs, Oh, Blurbs

The only other exit that I haven't talked about yet is drivers license. I really wish that it stuck around for a bit longer and that's what I don't like about the Countdown only being 30 songs. It was good while it lasted, though and I'm glad that it got four weeks at #1.

We also lost three Hit-Bound songs: Sacrifice, Hold On and CHICKEN TENDIES. Sacrifice was only alright, so I don't care that much. I really wish that CHICKEN TENDIES was given a chance, so I'm sad that it's gone and I'm not entirely convinced that Hold On is gone, as it was on the most recent survey that Hits 1 gave me, but I guess we'll see in the next couple of weeks.

Why is Peaches becoming a hit? I mean, seriously. Why is it big?

Ugh, Astronaut In The Ocean should be a lot higher, it's really good.

Aw, MONTERO dropped down to #16 this week. That kind of sucks, because it's grown on me. Expect it to switch to blue next week.

Leave The Door Open is really close to the top 10, which I'm fine with.

Mr. Perfectly Fine is at #10 now, which I guess I'm okay with? I mean, it doesn't really make sense, but whatever, I don't really care.

I guess Treat People With Kindness won't hit #1, which makes me surprised. I can't say I'm disappointed, but I can't say I'm happy either.

Looks like forget me too might actually manage to hit #1, which I'd definitely be fine with. I really hope that it gets there.

But, as for now, our new #1 is Overdrive! This makes absolutely no sense, but I really don't care because this song is great. I'm really glad that Conan Gray is getting a lot of success here, as he's had a perfect top 10 record here. I hope this stays around at #1 for a while.

Hot 100 Overview: Week of April 3, 2021 - Justin Bieber/Daniel Caesar/Giveon (1)

Justin Bieber/Daniel Caesar/Giveon (1)

So Justice by Justin Bieber has been released, so I guess this post will serve as my album review for that. So yeah, needless to say, it was an extremely active week.

The Top 10

#1: Peaches - Justin Bieber/Daniel Caesar/Giveon (DEBUT) [1st week at #1] {1 week}

#2: Up - Cardi B (-1) [1 week at #1] {7 weeks}

#3: Leave The Door Open - Silk Sonic (-1) [#2] {3 weeks}

#4: drivers license - Olivia Rodrigo (-1) [8 weeks at #1] {11 weeks}

#5: Save Your Tears - The Weeknd (-) [#4] {15 weeks}

#6: Blinding Lights - The Weeknd (-) [4 weeks at #1] {68 weeks}

#7: Levitating - Dua Lipa/DaBaby (-) [#5] {25 weeks}

#8: What's Next - Drake (-4) [1 week at #1] {3 weeks}

#9: What You Know Bout Love - Pop Smoke (+3) [#9] {29 weeks}

#10: Mood - 24kGoldn/iann dior (-2) [8 weeks at #1] {33 weeks}

Aside from the obvious elephant in the room, which I'll address later, it wasn't a too active top 10. I'm sad that Up isn't at #1 anymore because it's quite a good song. It looks like What's Next will be out of here soon, which I'm alright with.

Debuts

#1: Peaches - Justin Bieber/Daniel Caesar/Giveon

Okay, why is this #1? I literally can't see any appeal in this song at all and I have no clue why it's becoming such a big hit. I really hope that this ends up like Yummy, flopping. Nobody sounds good here and the chorus is honestly quite annoying. I really hope that this flops.

#42: Headshot - Lil Tjay/Polo G/Fivio Foreign

This is pretty good. All artists sound quite good here and I really like their flow. The production's cool and fits pretty well with the song. Overall, this is just really solid and I'd be totally fine if this decided to become a hit.

#43: As I Am - Justin Bieber/Khalid

I really hope that Justin ends up officially releasing this as a single, because it's really good. Both Justin Bieber and Khalid sound great here and their voices mix surprisingly well together. This song's also quite catchy. I really like the chorus and the production is pretty great too. I really really hope that this song gets released.

#62: Unstable - Justin Bieber/The Kid LAROI

I'm sure somebody's gonna really hate this song. Honestly, though, even though I had decent expectations for this, it's not fantastic. It gets kind of boring even if both artists sound fine. Not much else to say here.

#64: Off My Face - Justin Bieber

This one's also pretty boring, but Justin sounds good. That's it.

#66: Ghost - Justin Bieber

This one's better than the last two even though it's slightly boring, mainly because there's just more going on in the production.

#68: 2 Much - Justin Bieber

This song's really boring and extremely forgettable.

#76: Deserve You - Justin Bieber

Again, this one just has more going on in the production.

#81: Die For You - Justin Bieber/Dominic Fike

This song is much more upbeat, which is great. I think Dominic Fike fits pretty well with this song and I like his contribution here. Overall, this is good.

#82: Tombstone - Rod Wave

Quick break from Justin Bieber to talk about Rod Wave for a second (who, spoiler alert, has an album bomb next week). I don't think that this song's as good as Street Runner and it's slightly boring, but Rod Wave sounds good, the production's good and honestly, it's just a solid song.

#84: Love You Different - Justin Bieber/BEAM

This song's quite uninteresting, but I guess it's fine because Justin sounds good. BEAM's verse is alright too.

#87: Loved By You - Justin Bieber/Burna Boy

I like this one. It's got a cool beat and I think the chorus works pretty well with it. Burna Boy's verse is decent.

#91: Somebody - Justin Bieber

Okay, how is this the lowest song from the album? It's actually quite good. Justin sounds great here and the song's pretty upbeat and fun. I quite like it and I'm disappointed that it's not higher.

#94: Famous Friends - Chris Young/Kane Brown

Just your typical country song. Neither artist sounds great and the song's kind of boring.

Best Debut: As I Am - Justin Bieber/Khalid

Worst Debut: Peaches - Justin Bieber/Daniel Caesar/Giveon

#96: Sand In My Boots - Morgan Wallen (-16) [#32] {11 weeks}

#100: Beers And Sunshine - Darius Rucker (-19) [#42] {15 weeks}

I expect most of these to get a bounce back in a couple weeks after the Rod Wave album bomb before falling back down again because of Fearless (Taylor's Version). I'll go through them anyways, though. I'm glad that Streets fell and it never should've been a top 20 hit. I kind of wish that willow was bigger, although I'm getting slightly tired of it. Lemon Pepper Freestyle is great and it shouldn't be dropping. Damage and Real As It Gets and Buss It are pretty forgettable, so not too much to say on those ones. Monsters is still here? Okay then. I'm still utterly shocked at how both Morgan Wallen songs are still here. Almost Maybes I don't really care about, You Got It is good, so I'm sad and GIRL LIKE ME and Beers And Sunshine are both bad, so I'm glad that they dropped.

Undivided - Tim McGraw/Tyler Hubbard (#100) [#76] {2 weeks}

Sucks that a bunch of the good debuts from last week dropped off, but needless to say, I'm glad that DAYWALKR! is gone. Throat Baby was always kind of forgettable, so whatever. Baila Conmigo and Like I Want You only re-entered because of album drops, so whatever. Hellcats & Trackhawks wasn't good, so I'm glad it didn't stick around, Finesse Out The Gang Way should've been a bigger hit and the rest are either forgettable or bad.

Kwaheri, everybody! See you all in the next one.

Countdown Extra: Wave of You - Surfaces

Twenty One Pilots return this week with their first single from their next album, Scaled And Icy. This song's called Shy Away and it actually sounds like an 80s song. I think this sound works for them. Tyler Joseph sounds alright, but in my opinion, this song's kind of forgettable. This might grow on me, but for now, it's just decent.

Doja Cat probably would've released this next song earlier had TikTok not decided to make Streets popular, forcing her to promote that song. This next debut is from her next album. It's called Kiss Me More and it's featuring SZA. I definitely don't hate this song and I for sure think it's better than Say So, but I wouldn't say it's as good as Like That. Both artists sound quite good here and the chorus is pretty fun. Again though, it's kind of forgettable at the moment. I'm still glad it's here though.

Not surprisingly, Olivia Rodrigo's new song, deja vu debuts after only one week in Hit-Bound at #22. This song hasn't grown on me all that much since last week and I'm starting to doubt that it will. I just don't find it that interesting. Olivia sounds great and I have no doubts that she'll be a huge artist in just a couple of years and the writing is great here. But, I just can't really get behind the production. There's not enough at the start, then there's weird reverb-ed drums later. I'd much rather she make more songs like drivers license, but I still think she'll be Taylor Swift big even if she doesn't.

Speaking of Taylor Swift, the new "From The Vault" song from Fearless debuts this week after one week in Hit-Bound. Mr. Perfectly Fine is fine. The chorus is really catchy and I really like the production, but I'll agree with what Waffle said last week that the writing here really sounds like 2008 Taylor, which... it is, but it's technically a new song, so it makes for a weird situation. That key change is still great though.

Best Debut: Mr. Perfectly Fine (Taylor's Version) - Taylor Swift

Biggest DROP!!!: Therefore I Am - Billie Eilish (-9): Good, I'm really glad that this isn't in the top 10 anymore. It was never good and it stuck around for way too long. I hope it leaves in the next couple of weeks.

Biggest Jump: MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) - Lil Nas X & We're Good - Dua Lipa (+11): I didn't really expect either of these songs to jump. MONTERO is growing on me with each listen, so I'm really happy that it's in the top 10 and We're Good is still just good, so I'm fine that it's in the top 3.

Remember That Night? - Sara Kays [1; 2nd time]

The Business - Tiësto [8]

Remember Surfaces from the song Sunday Best last year? Well, they bring their second song to Hits 1 this week, Wave of You and honestly, I think it's better than Sunday Best. It's not nearly as fun as Sunday Best, but I actually quite like the guy's voice here. It actually kind of sounds like Khalid's voice. Anyways, I also really like the melody here and the production's good too. Overall, this is just a great song. (Also, I love their cover art. It's just so aesthetic)

I honestly thought that this song was a promotional single from Justin Bieber's album Justice, but I guess Hold On is actually being pushed as a single, as it's getting a decent pop radio run and it debuts Hit-Bound this week. This definitely isn't my favourite Justin Bieber song. I like the production here and Justin sounds good, but it's kind of forgettable. Yeah, that's it.

This next artist had a Hit-Bound dropout last year called Slow Dance. It's AJ Mitchell and he brings his second song to Hits 1, STOP. This song's good. AJ Mitchell sounds good, and the production's good, but my main issue with this is that the melody is extremely predictable. Overall though, this definitely isn't bad.

Yeah, I never expected Remember That Night? to stay for long on the Countdown, but I was hoping that it would stay for more than one week. This is ridiculous.

Okay, I really hate Obsessed now.

Don't You Blurb Away

Our three other exits from this week are: What You Know Bout Love, Anyone and My Head & My Heart. I'm sad to see all of these songs go. They were all good and I'm sad to see them go so early. All of them should've peaked higher.

We had two Hit-Bound exits too. Fly Away and Sucks Being Sober leave us this week. Fly Away was only ever mediocre, so I'm definitely not sad to see it leave. As for Sucks Being Sober, it should've been given a chance.

So we are once again One to Watch-less, as LILHUDDY's time has expired, but they didn't have anybody to replace him with.

How is Peaches not gone yet? I mean, cOMe oN (it's gonna be a huge hit, isn't it?).

Once In A Lifetime jumped to #21, which I'm definitely fine with.

pov dropped, which really sucks.

Way Less Sad hit the top 10, so I'm really happy about that.

forget me too is in the top 5! I'll definitely take it.
