Blurb Me Now

~ My only dilemma with Hailee Steinfeld & Grey/Zedd - Starving being at #1 is that I find it difficult to find pictures of Hailee Steinfeld & Grey together. I have this thing where the picture has to be of all of the lead artists who claim the spot. Well, anyways, its time there is good so far.

~ I am really enjoying the jump back into the top 10 from Sia/Kendrick Lamar - The Greatest. I just started liking this song a little more just about a week ago, so I'm glad to see it made a nice comeback. It just has a great party vibe and that's perfect when we're just about to ring in the new year.

~ I really see Bruno Mars - 24K Magic not being in the color green here again. I just don't believe I will get back into the song. I believe I can say with confidence that it has officially crossed out of the green zone. There is just too much going on in the song, which overwhelms me and didn't allow me to stick with it as long as I had expected.

~ I really would appreciate it (for the five millionth time now) if X Ambassadors - Unsteady could just decline and not jump anymore. Next week, let's hope for a drop. A small drop out of the top 20 would please me enough.

~ We got a good re-entry into the top 20 this week, as Fifth Harmony/Camila Cabello - That's My Girl miraculously made its way back up. This song is still quite catchy, and the girls vocals really are interesting, while still good in this song, so hopefully I will enjoy it a while longer.

~ I am loving seeing that Charli XCX - After The Afterparty has inched closer to the top 20. This song is just so great, and I really don't know how to tell you why.

~ It was time for Ariana Grande - Into You to take a bit of a dip down the countdown. Hopefully it will stick around for a while, but it's okay for the time being.

~ When I heard DJ Snake/Justin Bieber - Let Me Love You had the biggest jump this week, I was very excited that it quickly recovered from that drown in the numbers last week. What also made me excited was that the previous song, Train - Play That Song had the biggest drop of the week. This song is just a space filler and the quicker the drop, the better.

~ I really do hope that John Legend - Love Me Now does not flop here. This song is just so sweet and has an amazing message. John Legend has a really good way of relaying messages through his music.

~ It was interesting to see the small drop from Bastille - Good Grief, but it's refreshing to see it didn't have much success thus far.

~ I wish Gnash/Olivia O'Brien - I Hate U, I Love U would have done better here. Maybe the new year will bring a good thing and give this song another chance at countdown success.

~ Well, Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty took a tumble quick over the course of these past few weeks. I'm not complaining, though.

~ I really don't care that I still like Calvin Harris - My Way, I feel that it is quite annoying that this song and 5 Seconds Of Summer - Girls Talk Boys keep alternating between the bottom two spots, so I wish they would just depart.
