Stressed Blurbs

~ I really did expect Justin Timberlake - Can't Stop The Feeling! as #1, but I can see why Hits 1 would pick Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out, and it wasn't a terrible choice, although I would've preferred #2.

~ I really don't understand the reasons as to how high One Direction - Perfect and Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty are.

~ I really didn't expect Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman to be this high, but I'll take it, of course.

~ I would have preferred to see Calvin Harris/Rihanna - This Is What You Came For to be lower and for Fifth Harmony/Camila Cabello - Work From Home to be higher, but, oh well.

~ I had no expectation for One Direction - History to even be here, but it's okay, I guess.

~ I really don't think it was necessary to have One Direction - Drag Me Down this high up, or even here at all for a second year.

~ Of course, of course, of course. The lowest peaking song on here (5 Seconds Of Summer - Girls Talk Boys) just has to be here, and it just has to be this ridiculous song in particular. I mean, there were better lower peaking songs, and this has to be it? I mean, this wasn't that successful here, its such a space filler, but with the obsession this station has with this band, I'm not freaking surprised.

~ I am very happy with the fact that Selena Gomez - Same Old Love is here.

~ Wow. I really didn't expect Shawn Mendes - Stitches to still be here for another year.
