With our first and only debut this week, we have Lil Nas X/Billy Ray Cyrus - Old Town Road (Remix). You know, I was actually surprised we got a country and trap meme on a pop station. But… I'll take it! I actually really like this song. I think both of their voices blend really well together and the song is really catchy.
Biggest DROP!!!: Ariana Grande - 7 rings (-14): About time. This song was terrible and never should’ve been a thing. I don’t even know what the appeal was and I’m so glad to see this dropping in favor of break up with your girlfriend.
Biggest Jump: Lil Peep/Fall Out Boy/ILoveMakonnen - I’ve Been Waiting AND Ariana Grande - break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored (+10): Well, for I’ve Been Waiting, I’m super happy to see this make a triumphant entrance into the top 20, I like it a lot. And for break up with your girlfriend, I’m just happy to see this replace 7 rings and see it do to that what 7 rings did to thank u, next.

Old Town Blurb (Blurb-Mix)
Well, we lost one song today. grandson - Apologize. I actually really liked this song and I think it was really underrated. The instrumentation was spot on, and even though his voice was a bit annoying, the rest made up for it. I just think this didn’t get what it deserved.
In Betweenin’ doesn’t seem to be doing too well. Honestly, I don’t care. This song could leave next week and I probably wouldn’t even notice.
We had some top other 20 dropouts from Chlorine, Be Alright and Better. I think all songs were pretty good, and I wouldn’t have minded to see them up there for a bit longer.
Dumb Blonde and Walk Me Home made it into the top 20 this week. Both songs are great and I hope they both do pretty well.
For some reason High Hopes and This Feeling moved up a lot too. I’m so done with both songs.

NOTD/Felix Jaehn/Georgia Ku/Captain Cuts - So Close
Our first new Hit-Bound song is music based off of Game Of Thrones, which is currently in its last season, Power Is Power by The Weeknd, Travis Scott and SZA. I never actually watched Game Of Thrones, but apparently it’s pretty good. This song shows it off really well. I really like the vocals and it’s just really catchy.
Next we have some more Billie Eilish with bad guy. I absolutely hate this song. Billie Eilish just isn’t talented. I applaud her in her uniqueness, but I just don’t see the appeal at all. This song is particularly bad too. In the chorus when she says “bad guy” and her voice goes all choppy is straining on the ears. I wish they picked up wish you were gay or something that’s more tolerable than this.
Next we have a boring song by Bazzi called Paradise. You know, when he says “Paradise” in the chorus, he kind of sounds like Dan Reynolds. I find this song kind of boring. There’s just not much to it. I like Bazzi’s voice and all, but I just don’t find it interesting. That being said, it’s still better than Mine.
This next song wasn’t actually on Hit-Bound, but it’s available for vote, so I’m reviewing it. Alessia Cara actually has a pretty good voice for ballads as shown on Out Of Love. I find there is a bit of a lack of instrumentation at the beginning, but I still like it.
