#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: Imagine Dragons – Thunder (5)

Biggest DRRRRRRROP!!! Of The Week: Tie between Little Mix/Nicki Minaj – Woman Like Me and Khalid/Normani – Love Lies (–9)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Benny Blanco/Halsey/Khalid – Eastside (+7)

New Entrants:
Our lone new entrant comes from Benny Blanco and Calvin Harris. They produce a song called I Found You. I’ll have to admit, it’s not as good as Eastside though, but it’s still tolerable. As I’m losing interest in Eastside, I’m gaining interest in this song. Let’s see how well it’ll do here.

HitBound:
  • Lauren Daigle – You Say
  • Jake Miller – Wait For You
  • Post Malone – Wow.
  • Dean Lewis – Be Alright
  • Sabrina Carpenter – Sue Me
  • Seeb/BΔSTILLE – Grip
  • lovelytheband – Maybe, I'm Afraid
  • Pitbull/Rhea – Ocean To Ocean
  • Avril Lavigne – Tell Me It's Over
  • Gesaffelstein/The Weeknd – Lost In The Fire
  • Kelsea Ballerini – Miss Me More
  • Sam Smith/Normani – Dancing With A Stranger (DEBUT)
  • Stephen Puth – Sexual Vibe
  • Travis Scott/Drake – Sicko Mode
  • Charli XCX/Troye Sivan – 1999
Dancing With A Stranger is far better than Pray and it better debut soon.

Top 5 HitBound:
  1. Charli XCX - Troye Sivan - 1999
  2. Sam Smith/Normani - Dancing With A Stranger
  3. Sabrina Carpenter - Sue Me
  4. Avril Lavigne - Tell Me It’s Over

I Blurbed You:
When I thought that Shawn Mendes - In My Blood was going to leave this week, I was wrong. I’m glad it didn’t. Stay as long as you like.

Ariana Grande - Breathin’ is slowly fading away on me.

Halsey - Without Me got annoying rather quick. It was definitely because of the overplay and then song hitting #1 for 3 straight weeks.

Whoever that put Dan + Shay - Tequila in the top 10 seriously needs to stop. This song is definitely getting less interesting each listen. It still irritates me that this song just became popular.

Speak of songs entering the top 10, Benny Blanco/Halsey/Khalid - Eastside re entered the top 10 by having the biggest jump up 7 spots. It should be time for this song to be on its way out.

I really wish that Alessia Cara - Trust My Lonely jumped more than 2 spots.

Silk City/Dua Lipa - Electricity has seriously been more of a countdown filler than a hit. I mean, why just let this song go.

TBH, we really need to have 6 or 7 exits like next week to spice things up. There’s songs that have been refusing to leave like Maroon 5/Cardi B - Girls Like You, Panic! At The Disco, Say Amen, etc. Also, there’s barely any bad songs on HitBound.

I honestly see Camila Cabello - Consequences being a flop here. Why won’t this song be as successful as Havana or Never Be The Same? Oh well.

It was about time that Khalid/Normani - Love Lies had the biggest drop.

Most Missed Song: Twenty One Pilots - Jumpsuit

Throwback Pick: The Pussycat Dolls - I Hate This Part (2009)

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Ariana Grande - 7 Rings
