DNCE (2) - Week Of April 16, 2016

Before we get going with the post this week, I would like to inform you all that next Wednesday, April 20, I will be leaving on a 12 day vacation in Los Angeles, California. I will be returning on Sunday, May 1. I may have some difficulties getting the posts out. They will be out, I will assure you of that, they may just be a little late. Next weekend, I should be able to listen to the countdown. The post, however might be late, considering that my birthday is on Sunday, April 24. The Hot 45 Chart may be out during the middle of that week as well. The following weekend, I may not be able to the countdown because we might be preparing to leave and going on the plane. So, that post and The Hot 45 Chart may be late. So, I would really appreciate if you bare with me. I love you fam, and of course I will give you updates on Adrian's blog. So, enough about me, here is the lone countdown exit this week:

Debuts

~ We only have one debut this week and that is X Ambassadors with Unsteady. I think that this is a significant step up from Renegades, a song I barely liked. I think this song is good and deserves some success on this countdown. Hopefully it will.

Blurbs Don't Own Me

~ I'm glad Rihanna/Drake - Work is hanging on. We can't get rid of it yet.

~ Jason Derulo - Get Ugly needs to get out. Now.

~ I was hoping that Grace - You Don't Own Me would make a bigger jump. I guess not. Better something than nothing, right?

~ I'm kind of glad that Adele - Hello is now dropping.

~ I can see Tryon - Somebody To Love Me being one of those three week wonders. We'll see.

~ I'm so glad that Twenty One Pilots - Ride had the biggest jump of the week. This song is so catchy.

~ Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman needed to make a larger drop. Let's not have another flop from her.

~ I'm glad that Panic! At The Disco - Victorious is making its way down the countdown slowly. This song shouldn't be this high.

~ Lukas Graham - 7 Years is a kind of on off song for me. I never know when I like it or don't like it. It's odd.

~ Taylor Swift - New Romantics needs to get in the top 10.

~ Same with Fifth Harmony - Work From Home.

~ Let's get Fall Out Boy/Demi Lovato out of the top 10. Seriously. This song is probably going to be the next Drag Me Down.

~ One Direction - Perfect is so annoying now. This needs to leave the top 10.

~ So now Justin Bieber - Love Yourself enters the top 5? It's so old now.

~ I'm really hoping that Zayn - Pillowtalk can pull off the top spot next week.

~ DNCE - Cake By The Ocean is getting old. I hope it doesn't stick at the top spot.

First, I would like to say that anyone who knows how I can fix my bolded text, please tell me in the comments. What I mean by this is, the text is typed unbolded and shows up bold when I post. This is becoming very annoying to see my posts entirely bolded. I already tried a thousand times to change the font weight in the HTML. So, if anybody knows the solution, please give me an answer. Thank you.

Second, I know I have said it a million times now, but I am absolutely sick and tired of the inappropriate comments from some people. I would appreciate if I could read just one comment nowadays without an insult or a pun about death. We need to be better than that. Mature up guys and be good people. All was fine just a few months ago and then this giant commenting war broke out and it needs to stop and I mean it. If I see one more inappropriate comment on this or my other blog. You will be banned. This is getting very tiring and hectic and we are better than this. That is all I have for you today.

The Hot 45 Chart will be out later.

Love ya fam!

~ Jack :)
