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.

BIGGEST DROP!!!.... Of The Week: Katy Perry - Never Really Over [-16]
Biggest Jump Of The Week: Post Malone - Goodbyes [+10]

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.

Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: Mark Ronson & Camila Cabello - Find U Again [-10]

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Asher Angel - One Thought Away [+5]

Blurbs

It was weird having Lil Nas X host this weekend, he sounded totally not into it and feel like it was forced. Sounded like he just read the script and didn't want to put any enthusiasm into it.

Find U Again is flopping, which I kinda don't like, as it's a good song. Please stop.

I totally thought You Need To Calm Down was gonna take #1 this week, but I guess I lied. It will happen next week.

Goodbyes is slowly creeping towards the top 10. I wonder if it will hit it at all...

BIGGEST DROP!!!!... Of The Week: Marshmello & CHVRCHES - Here With Me [-11] & PUBLIC - Make You Mine [-11]

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Kaskade & Meghan Trainor - With You [+17]

New entrants

The first one is by Thomas Rhett, with Look What God Gave Her. I am most definitely not into it with this song. There must be something in country music that is lacking, because I don't find this song that good, or worth being memorable.

The second one is by Zara Larsson with All The Time. This one is decent, and I enjoy it... sometimes. I feel sometimes it's a little obnoxious and super loud, but that's okay, for now.

Look What Blurb Gave Her

Meghan Trainor takes a stab back into the midsection of the countdown, which I'm not that mad about, quite honestly. It's one of her better songs nowadays anyways.

I like the new entrants to the top 5. But they both need to be the top 1 and 2. I'm sick and tired of the rest. Hey Look Ma, I Made It, Who Do You Love, and Sucker can all drop heavily please.

So, I have a new favorite song on the countdown, which comes in the form of Mother's Daughter by Miley Cyrus. It makes me feel like an empowered woman (even though I'm a guy) it's just super catchy, and I hope it will climb more. This does NOT mean Nightmare should be dropping like this...

There are a few new top 20 entrants in here like 100 Bad Days and Goodbyes which I'm proud of. But Dancing's Not A Crime needs to leave it as soon as possible.

I woke up early today because I have work later to get this out so no more blurbs. See you next week!

*Spyder Harrison and the Hits 1 team have made an editing mistake. Nightmare was played first, before I Don't Care, but when Spydie counted the last 5, Nightmare was #12.

BIGGEST DROP!!!!... Of The Week: Lizzo - Truth Hurts [-20]

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Miley Cyrus - Mother's Daughter [+19]

New Entrants

The only new entrant today is a song that should not have debut as quick as it did before other songs on hitbound, but because it's Katy, here it is. We have the boring as all hell Small Talk by Katy Perry. I just do not like the way this sounds and I'm not sure how I would even sing a song like that, it's super stale.

Small Blurb

I'm seriously not interested about listening to the top 5 anymore. It's been the same songs for quite a while, especially Who Do You Love. I'm not sure how Cool managed to pull that off, but it must be stopped. Hey Look Ma, I Made It needs to stop falling and then jumping right back into the top 3. 

I can say that this is officially the end of Nightmare. I wish that song would have been a hit just like Without Me was.

As usual, the new and random Top 10ers have fall taken huge falls. There goes Truth Hurts and If We Have Each Other. To be quite honest, having one of them, or both, to be in the top 5 instead of everything but If I Can't Have You would be better.

Miley Cyrus swoops in for the biggest jump with Mother's Daughter, and frankly, I love that. It's closer to the top of my favorites list from the countdown.

I've started to love and grow into Rescue Me. The music video and just listening to it and understanding the message is just great to me, hopefully it'll last.

Thank you for tuning back into this week.

New Entrants

The first entrant from this huge bundle of entrants is Asher Angel with One Thought Away. As a huge Andi Mack fan, I personally like the song a little bit, but Wiz Khalifa really made the song better, wish they didn't remove him. However, I still think he should stick to acting.

The next is Miley Cyrus and Mother's Daughter. I actually like this song a lot, and a lot more than her other songs. She has a good voice here, and it doesn't sound like total crap. 

We have Trampoline by SHAED. This is a super good one. I heard this song in an ad for apple some time ago, and I'm glad it's finally getting its recognition of a great song. Hope it continues.

Find U Again by Mark Ronson/Camila Cabello Oh my gosh. Camila has been making so many good songs lately that I can't have a favorite. It's really good here and I love the song, hope it stays for a while.

Now we have Stephen Puth with Look Away. Look, this song is not the worst, but it's also not the best on the countdown. I can dig it when I listen to it every now and then, but please don't spam the song on the radio, thank you.

The last debut of the week is Rescue Me by OneRepublic has pretty much the same reason as above. It's a little catchy when it comes to the chorus, but it fails to lock my interest, I don't really now why.

One Blurb Away

At first I notice If We Have Each Other took a massive leap into not just the top 20, top 10, but the top 5. I'm not mad about that, it's a really good song.

Let's say a little tribute to all the songs that left. They will not be missed, I'm happy for every single one of them.

Shawn Mendes still stands at the top, with Who Do You Love right behind. WDYL seriously needs to back out of the top 5 and top 10, it's been lingering there for so long. It got its #1 now please leave.

I'm also happy Lizzo and Truth Hurts made a leap into the top 10. I'm still bopping to her song every time it comes on. I hope it could hit top 5.

Nightmare will just never hit #1 not even for a week. I won't give up, but I'm about to give up.

Hey Look Ma, I Made It finally left the top 10. It will probably be back next week, though. That's how this countdown works.

For the love of GOD please get rid of High Hopes. I cannot stand listening to the song twice in one countdown for the next 7 weeks. Please go away.

I will see you all next week!
