AT40 - Top 40 Of 2021 - December 2021

 Hello everyone! I am starting to get into the year end posts for AT40 and Hits 1. I'll give you a heads up, this list makes 99% more sense than Hits 1 year end of 2021. Let's get right into the top 40 songs of 2021! As with all of my year end posts, color coding is based on how I like the song and not if I got tired of them. A teal color on a song means that song is one of the best amongst the others.
