Mike Posner (2) - Week Of July 23, 2016

Hey fam! So, I was supposed to go on vacation today with 21 of my family members in the same house (no this isn't a typo), but everyone screwed up the rental date, so we're going from July 24 to July 31 now. So, I'll be going to Maine tomorrow. Posts may be delayed, and results will hopefully be out for the summer soundtrack that week. So, I'll totally give you updates and everything.

Entrants

~ So, yes, 5 Seconds Of Summer are back with the quite bland and uninteresting Girls Talk Boys. The beat is lame and their voices can be so much better, so this is a fail and their worst single released thus far. I really would like it if it weren't like their older songs and get a ton of success on the countdown, but with Hits 1's overwhelming love for them, that doesn't seem likely at all.

HitBound

• Katy Perry - Rise
• Jordan Fisher - All About Us
• Coldplay/SeeB - Hymn For The Weekend
• Magic! - Red Dress
• Ben Rector - Brand New
• Demi Lovato - Body Say
• Bebe Rexha/Nicki Minaj - No Broken Hearts
• Jacob Whitesides - Lovesick
• The Strumbellas - Spirits
• Flo Rida/Jason Derulo - Hello Friday
• Troye Sivan/Alessia Cara - Wild
• Alesso/Nico & Vinz - I Wanna Know
• AJR - I'm Not Famous
• Steve Aoki/Boehm/Walk The Moon - Back 2 U (DEBUT)

~ Steve Aoki/Boehm/Walk The Moon - Back 2 U is good, but nothing really special. I won't be devastated if it doesn't make it onto the countdown.

Top 5 HitBound Songs

1. Katy Perry - Rise

2. Demi Lovato - Body Say

3. Troye Sivan/Alessia Cara - Wild

4. Bebe Rexha/Nicki Minaj - No Broken Hearts

5. Coldplay/SeeB - Hymn For The Weekend

Girls Talk Blurbs

~ Ruth B. - Lost Boy was clearly a huge flop on this countdown. Oh well, I'll live.

~ Grace - You Don't Own Me isn't bad anymore! It's just going down the road to mediocrity.

~ Flo Rida - My House is your typical meaningless, but fun party anthem that just turns to trash very quickly. Flo Rida's music isn't something I highlight as my favorite, it's very mediocre except for a few of his singles.

~ Alessia Cara - Wild Things is clearly looking like a song that won't be lasting much more time. That's kind of a bummer.

~ Fifth Harmony - Work From Home is dying out. Maybe it can be the next Me, Myself, & I.

~ Symon - Say is old now. It is kind of like a rap/pop song, she tries to rap on several occasions and it kind of fails.

~ Selena Gomez - Kill Em With Kindness is doing a whole lot of nothing here. Which is kind of okay to me since I'm slightly growing out of it.

~ Lukas Graham - Mama Said is so much better than 7 Years!

~ I have a feeling that Drake/Wizkid/Kyla - One Dance isn't going to last long. I think it could pull a Wild Things.

~ I'm kind of still liking Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out. It should be dropping though.

~ Panic! At The Disco - Victorious needs to drop. Like now.

~ Calvin Harris/Rihanna - This Is What You Came For has a special uncredited guest! Taylor Swift! Yes, yes, yes. I noticed that.

~ Sia/Sean Paul - Cheap Thrills better hit the top spot. I really love this song.

~ Mike Posner/SeeB - I Took A Pill In Ibiza is okay at this point. It being at the peak is kind of okay but kind of annoying.
