New Entrants:

Finally a 7 exit week! I love these weeks!

First off, we have a really bad song. This song is Kelsy Karter - Harry. I believe that she can’t sing. Her voice is just obnoxious for the most part. She’s like screeching throughout the song. I seriously think that this song should flop.

Lady Gaga/Bradley Cooper - Shallow reenters at #37 this week. As you may know, I love Lady Gaga’s music but this is a snoozefest. She should have another song from the A Star Is Born soundtrack debuting instead of this song reentering. I don’t think this song will have a worthy 2nd run.

I don’t get the hate of Madison Beer - Hurts Like Hell. I find the song very catchy for the most part. It doesn’t reach the height of Home With You but it’s still great. But TBH, I don’t see this song lasting long, unfortunately.

LSD is back with a collaborating of Lil Wayne called Genius. First, I actually thought this song was bad because of Lil Wayne. However, I find it more of a catchy song now. Even though it’s not a great song, I still has some interesting drops. I don’t think it’ll be too long before I get sick of it.

Maren Morris - Girl is pretty catchy for the most part. Even though it’s a copy of 80s Mercedes, I think this song is better. It’s not her best song but I’ll take it. It doesn’t reach the height of Rich. But other than that, it’s a good song.

Meghan Trainor has been a great singer lately IMO. All The Ways may actually be her best song by far. I remember when I jammed out to this song when it first debuted HitBound. I don’t get the hate of this song at all. It’s Meghan Trainor after all and she is a great singer with a great voice. Unfortunately, this song will probably flop.

Just like in Genius, I’ve grew into Yungblud/Halsey/Travis Barker - 11 Minutes. It’s not that great and I’ll probably get sick of it soon. I hold the unpopular opinion for liking this song though. Nothing more to talk about the song.

Best Debut: Meghan Trainor - All The Ways.

HitBound:

• Ally Brooke – Low Key
• P!nk – Walk Me Home
• Austin Brown – In Betweenin'
• Marshmello/CHVRCHES – Here With Me (DEBUT)
• Fletcher – Undrunk
• lovelytheband – Maybe, I'm Afraid
• Panic! At The Disco – Dancing's Not A Crime
• Kygo/Valerie Broussard – Think About You
• Avril Lavigne/Nicki Minaj – Dumb Blonde
• Ariana Grande – Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored
• Louis Tomlinson – Two Of Us
• Ava Max – So Am I (DEBUT)
• Bebe Rexha – Last Hurrah
• Billie Eilish – Bury A Friend
• NOTD/Felix Jaehn/Georgia Ku/Captain Cuts – So Close

Here With Me is great and better than Happier, but So Am I is pretty bad.

Top 5 HitBound:

1. Ariana Grande - Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored
2. Bebe Rexha - Last Hurrah
3. Marshmello/CHVRCHES – Here With Me
4. Louis Tomlinson - Two Of Us
5. Ally Brooke - Low Key

Blurbs Like Hell:

I’m surprised but also happy that Bebe Rexha - I’m A Mess survived a 7 exit week.

Why does Twenty One Pilots - Chlorine have to be jumping? This song is bad and should be on its way out soon. Like please leave within the next few weeks.

Thanks to So Am I debuting HitBound, I’m now losing interest in Ava Max - Sweet But Psycho. These 2 songs sound exactly the same.

Jonas Brothers - Sucker is on the verge of hitting #1. I hope it does next week. It’ll tie the record for Adele - Hello though.

Ariana Grande - 7 Rings leaving the top 10 is just unacceptable. This song is a superior single to Thank U, Next which isn’t that good anymore. If it leaves before TUN, I will be posed.

Imagine Dragons - Bad Liar looks like it’s on its way out soon. I thought this song was going to last a lot longer, but I’m pretty much wrong. However, it may make a rebound.

I don’t think Dean Lewis - Be Alright deserves the biggest jump.

Apparently, Card B/Bruno Mars - Please Me isn’t going to be as successful as Finesse is. That’s too bad because Please Me is the better song. I only think that it’s decent though.

Lauv/Troye Sivan - I’m So Tired is bland and shouldn’t even be in the top 20 in the first place. Who the hell is voting for that song?

As far as out exits go, Avril Lavigne - Tell Me It’s Over and Stephen Puth - Sexual Vibe are both underrated. These 2 songs deserved a better tenure. SeeB/Bastille - Grip was getting old so it was about time that it left. The other 4 exits are bad. Lovelytheband - Broken was great at first, but I got sick of it. Lauren Daigle and Jennifer Lopez are both pretty bad singer so good riddance to You Say and Limitless. And finally, George Ezra - Shotgun leaves. This song should’ve left back in 2018. However, when I hear that this song was impacting the radio in January, I was mad. But finally, it left.

Most Missed Song: Andy Grammer - Honey I’m Good

Throwback Pick: Lady Gaga - Paparazzi (2009)

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Alan Walker/Sabrina Carpenter/Farruko - On My Way

Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: Tie Between Seeb/Bastille – Grip and Cardi B/Bruno Mars – Please Me (–15)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Lauv/Troye Sivan – I'm So Tired (+18)

New Entrants:

Our only entrant has debuted way high up at #7. This is the highest debut we’ve ever had in history. This is like since Hits 1 came out back in 2001. But TBH, I followed Hits 1 since 2008 and I don’t remember the countdowns from back then. This song is great. I’m also happy that the Jonas brothers reunited back together after like 5 years of hiatus. They’ve been talented as a group. As this song debuts so high, it’s probably going to have a long run.

HitBound:

• NOTD/Felix Jaehn/Georgia Wu/Captain Cuts – So Close (DEBUT)
• Avril Lavigne/Nicki Minaj – Dumb Blonde
• lovelytheband – Maybe, I'm Afraid
• Louis Tomlinson – Two Of Us
• Bebe Rexha – Last Hurrah
• Billie Eilish – Bury A Friend
• Panic! At The Disco – Dancing's Not A Crime
• Fletcher – Undrunk (DEBUT)
• Austin Brown – In Betweenin'
• Ally Brooke – Low Key
• Kelsy Karter – Harry
• Ariana Grande – Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored (DEBUT)
• LSD/Lil Wayne – Genius
• P!nk – Walk Me Home
• Kygo/Valerie Broussard – Think About You

So Close doesn’t reach the height of I Wanna Know, Undrunk is catchy, and BUWYG,IM is a step down from 7 Rings but it’s still great.

Top 5 HitBound:

1. Bebe Rexha - Last Hurrah
2. Ariana Grande - Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored
3. Avril Lavigne/Nicki Minaj - Dumb Blonde
4. Louis Tomlinson - Two Of Us
5. Ally Brooke - Low Key

Blurber:

I’m happy that Panic! At The Disco - Hey Look Ma, I Made It is in the #1 spot as I actually grew back into it.

I thought I would never lose interest in Ariana Grande - Thank U, Next. But in fact, I did. It’s time for it to go.

The point that Lauv/Troye Sivan - I’m So Tired was the biggest jump is unacceptable. Can this song just flop, please?

Apparently, Cardi B/Bruno Mars - Please Me isn’t going to last much longer. It would’ve been a lot better if Cardi was a great rapper, but she isn’t.

Dan + Shay - Tequila took it’s deserved drop out of the top 10.

Speaking of Dan + Shay and songs dropping, Speechless dropped out of the top 20. It’s worse than Tequila and I’ll be please if it leaves before Tequila even though neither of them are good.

Please let Ariana Grande - 7 Ring hit #1 at some point.

Jennifer Lopez - Limitless spent almost its entire time in the bottom 5. The good news it that they removed it from the poll. It’ll probably leave for good next week.

I’m A Mess is doing strong. Stay in the countdown as long as you’d like.

As far as the exits go, Sicko Mode was the only song that left and it should’ve had a longer tenure than 4 weeks.

Most Missed Countdown Song: The Weeknd/Daft Punk - I Feel It Coming

Throwback Pick: Linkin Park - Numb (2001)

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Why Don’t We - Big Plans

Favorite Countdown Song This Week Last Year: Florida Georgia Line/Bebe Rexha - Meant To Be

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Tie Between Lauren Daigle – You Say and Cardi B/Bruno Mars – Please Me (+7)

New Entrants:
Ugh, Lauv is back with I'm So Tired. I'd say that this is better than ILMB and There's No Way but it's still bad. I don't think this song is lasting very long on the countdown which is a good thing.

Why do we add in a Post Malone song that is worse than Sunflower. I find Wow to be a bad song overall. I'm definitely not wowed from the song at all. I know he's not a goo rapper and all but seriously? This song is boring.

Just like Adrian's opinion on Expectations, I hate Apologize because of Grandson's voice. I like the production but I'm not a fan of his voice. This may grow into me though.

HitBound:

• LSD/Lil Wayne – Genius
• P!nk – Walk Me Home
• Austin Brown – In Betweenin'
• Kelsy Karter – Harry
• Ally Brooke – Low Key
• Panic! At The Disco – Dancing's Not A Crime
• Maren Morris – GIRL
• Kygo/Valerie Broussard – Think About You
• Avril Lavigne/Nicki Minaj – Dumb Blonde (DEBUT)
• Bebe Rexha – Last Hurrah (DEBUT)
• Yungblud/Halsey/Travis Barker – 11 Minutes
• Meghan Trainor – All The Ways
• Billie Eilish – Bury A Friend (DEBUT)
• Madison Beer – Hurts Like Hell
• lovelytheband – Maybe, I'm Afraid
• Louis Tomlinson – Two Of Us (DEBUT)

Dumb Blonde has a catchy vibe to it, Last Hurrah is another amazing song from Bebe, fuck you Hits 1 in adding Billie Eilish, and Two Of Us is pretty good.

Top 5 HitBound:

1. Bebe Raxha - Last Hurrah

2. Ally Broke - Low Key

3. Meghan Trainor - All The Ways

4. Austin Brown - In Betweenin'

5. Avril Lavigne/Nicki Minaj - Dumb Blonde
