Wow! Kay, 6 songs debuted this week, so… the first one is The Chainsmokers/5 Seconds Of Summer - Who Do You Love. Now, I know I was kind of hating on this one, saying it was cheesy and everything, but the more that I listen to it, I like it even more. This is a really good song I now realize, and I’m actually happy it only took one week to get here.


Well, this next one was not as quick to debut, but it’s just as good. It’s SICKO MODE by Travis Scott and Drake. Now, I’m really not a rap fan, but I really like this one. When I first heard it, I did not think I was going to enjoy it at all. But now, I think it’s really good. It's got a great beat, and the memes are great.


Well, this first one I liked it when it debuted, but now not so much. It’s Sue Me by Sabrina Carpenter. I think she’s a great singer and everything, but I just don’t feel like this is her strongest single. I liked Almost Love a lot more.


Sam Smith and Normani come in at #32 with Dancing With A Stranger. This one’s pretty good. They both sound spectacular, and it’s pretty good, I just don’t find it very interesting. I’m glad it debuted, I just don’t really know how I feel about it.


For the fifth debut this week, we have Jake Miller’s Wait For You. This one’s pretty good. Just not much to talk about. Yup, that’s pretty much it.


And debuting super high at #21, we have a song everybody saw coming, 7 rings by Ariana Grande. Ughh. I’m hearing this song absolutely everywhere, and it’s driving me INSANE!!! This song is trash. Not one appealing quality about it. I hate every second of it and it’s just terrible.


Best Debut: Travis Scott/Drake - SICKO MODE


Biggest DROP!!!: benny blanco/Calvin Harris - I Found You (-20): Yeah. I didn’t expect this one to do well. Hopefully it doesn’t stay much longer. Yup. That’s about all I have to say because this song is trash.


Biggest Jump: Stephen Puth - S**ual Vibe (+19): Well. Like I said last week, I really enjoy this one. I’m glad it jumped up to #15, and I wish it the very best in the future. Good job, S**ual Vibe. *claps*

7 Blurbs


Okay. We lost 6 songs this week. Alessia Cara - Trust My Lonely, Selena Gomez - Back To You, Panic! At The Disco - Say Amen (Saturday Night), Shawn Mendes - In My Blood, Ariana Grande - breathin and Pitbull/Rhea - Ocean To Ocean. Trust My Lonely was pretty good, and I’m sad it didn’t do to well. Back To You was very old and it lasted way too long here. Say Amen was a really solid song, and I’m glad it did really well. In My Blood was a very good song that got old quick, but I still really like it. I really wish breathin did better, because it’s better than thank u, next and 7 rings combined, times 1000. And, to be honest, Ocean To Ocean shouldn’t have even debuted, so goodbye, you won’t be missed.


Machine is dead. There’s no soft way to put it. It was doing fine right up till the point that Bad Liar debuted on Hit-Bound. Honestly, I don’t care.


Nothing Breaks Like A Heart is also dead. That sucks, I thought it was pretty good. I hope it comes back up.


Natural, Don’t Leave Me Alone and Be Alright dropped out of the top 20. That’s really sad. I like them all, but I’m really sad about Be Alright. I wish it would have done better.


I think they cut the end off of Chlorine. I don’t know, I wasn’t really listening. Anyways, it’s doing well, which I’m happy about because it’s green now.


Without Me has finally dropped off of #1! I’m so happy! There hasn’t been a new #1 in 5 weeks!


Speaking of a new #1This Feeling has hit #1 for the fifth time! I know before I was saying I was getting tired of this one being at #1, but now, since it replaced Without Me, I don’t care.


#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Khalid - Saturday Nights


Most Missed Countdown Song: Justin Bieber - Love Yourself

Madison Beer - Hurts Like Hell (DEBUT)

Lauv/Troye Sivan - i’m so tired…

LSD/Lil Wayne - Genius (DEBUT)

Kelsey Karter - Harry (DEBUT)


I really wish Hits 1 would stop picking up country songs. I was okay with Dan + Shay, but then we started getting Kelsea Ballerini just because of This Feeling, and now we’re getting Maren Morris because of The Middle. GIRL isn’t very interesting. It sounds kind of annoying and I just wish they never picked it up.


Meghan Trainor is okay. I don’t really like her because I think her music is kind of bland, and ALL THE WAYS is no exception. It just has nothing interesting about it. I don’t like it that much and it’s just very bland and forgettable.


I almost forgot about Madison Beer. I guess Home With You was okay. There’s, in my opinion, not much to her music either, and again, Hurts Like Hell is no exception. It just feels really boring and just kind of uninteresting.


I actually really like LSD. (Not the drug) I really enjoyed Thunderclouds, and I think Genius is actually really good. Lil Wayne doesn’t add much, but whatever. This is the type of song I could listen to all day and not get tired of it. It’s just a really interesting song with a lot to it. The only part I don’t like is when they say “Sia.” and then she just kind of yells, but whatever.


The heck is Harry by Kelsey Karter? I mean, who at Hits 1 thought it was a good idea to pick this up? This song is complete trash, and I’m not even sure it’s supposed to be a song.
