New Entrants 

Our first entrant comes by Charlie Puth with Mother. This is significantly better than I Warned Myself in all ways possible, and I actually like this song. I'm not really into a lot of Charlie Puth's music, so this is a surprise to me especially. Let's see how it does in the next few weeks. 

The only other entrant, the best entrant, and the best song on the countdown comes in the form of Halsey (I am NOT a Halsey stan - I just relate to a lot of her songs) with Graveyard. This one took a different approach than Nightmare, and I love the guitar sounds. She sounds really good here and I hope it can hit #1 as soon as possible, and achieve what Nightmare failed upon.

I keep blurbin' myself down deeper

I knew Easier wouldn't last long. I am super excited and glad You Need To Calm Down hit #1 and I hope Easier WILL NOT come back at top. It needs to start dropping.

My opinions on both of Camila Cabello's songs have changed. I've grown into listening to them more often and I find both of them quite good.

Talk took a huge hit this week, Never Really Over is in the bottom 5, Old Town Road took a massive hit as well.. only some of the good things. On the other side, Cool jumped back into the top 5 even though it's gone elsewhere. Not too hyped.

New Entrants

Camila Cabello has came out with two new songs lately, and both of them I do not find that good. However, one is better than the other. Despite popular opinion, I find Shameless to top Liar. Why? For one thing, people are criticizing her for her vocals. I do not find her vocals that bad on Shameless, or Liar. Honestly, they're pretty much the same. I just find myself singing Shameless more.

The only other entrant this week comes by a newer song of Twenty One Pilots that has been on Hitbound for quite a while. We have The Hype, which at first listen, I was definitely not at ALL interested. It sounded super boring, however hearing it over and over again I finally grew into it.

Dear Future Self (Blurbs Up)

I was definitely interested in hearing a new #1 this week, but not in the form of Easier. It's a good song, but I feel like I've heard it way too much already BEFORE it even hit #1. I would rather have You Need To Calm Down, Senorita or even Truth Hurts take it.

My opinion on Look What God Gave Her has changed, surprisingly. At the first few listens, it sounded like total garbage. However, after a few more, I find myself singing the song for some strange reason. It's a weird reason, but it's what it is.

Never Really Over took the biggest fall this week, as to which I am not surprised by. It has not been good anywhere else, so it's only a matter of time before it's gone. 

I am SUPER interested in seeing Goodbyes taking flight into the top 10. However it can stick there for a while, or even entering top 5, before it falls. We know Circles is coming...

In response to the exits, I'm not surprised. I liked 100 Bad Days so I'm kinda sad about that, but Speechless was made to leave, and One Thought Away was never really going to go anywhere.
