Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: Elle King - Ex's & Oh's (-15)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out and Fall Out Boy/Demi Lovato - Irresistible (+10)

Debuts

~ Nick Jonas - Levels is re-entering which I don't know how it did and I really don't care. It probably will just stay in the bottom 5 or leave next week.

~ The Vamps are back with Wake Up. This song is really good in my opinion. I was happy that it debuted this week and I was just singing along to it the whole time, it is a super catchy tune. I hope it does somewhat well on the countdown, like Somebody To You with Demi Lovato did.

~ Nelly/Jeremih - The Fix is really catchy in Jeremih's parts. I just keep singing Baaaaaaaaaaaaababy when he says it. That is my favorite part and I hope it has some success on this countdown.

~ MO is back with Kamikaze. I have to be honest, the background sounds in this song are kind of annoying, but the singing is pretty good. I hope it has some decent success on the countdown.

Blurbs Fix

~ Yay! Blurbs again! (Not that exciting Jack -_-).

~ Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean? needs to leave already! Every week since its re-entry to the countdown it has had 1 or 2 spins throughout the week despite it not exiting the countdown. This song is annoying the heck out of me.

~ I know some people are probably thinking I am crazy for thinking Meghan Trainor/John Legend - Like I'm Gonna Lose You is still okay. The answer is that I don't hear it that much so it doesn't bother me.

~ Can we have Worth It leave the countdown? It is becoming extremely intolerable.

~ I have no clue as to why Moments dropped this week. That is completely not an excuse. It should have jumped at least into the 20's. I hope it is not a countdown flop. It is a really good song.

~ Adele - When We Were Young made a nice little jump last week and now it made a nice little drop back down into the mess we call the 30's. Why Hits 1 "voters"? Why?

~ Walk The Moon - Shut Up And Dance made a nice drop into the 30's. Finally. It was definitely time.

~ Just like Worth It, Locked Away needs to leave. It is now a red song.

~ Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams is probably going to leave soon. Hopefully it can pull a Black Magic but probably not.

~ I Know What You Did Last Summer is not doing a thing on this countdown which is really annoying me. It needs to make a jump into the top 20.

~ X Ambassadors - Renegades needs to leave as well. It is completely unwelcomed back into the 20's. It needs to go back to the 30's or leave. Please Hits 1 "voters". Please.

~ The Chainsmokers/ROZES - Roses is so good. The snaps after the chorus are so great and the song like Spyder said...drives me out of my mind! This song had great EDM and I am growing into the vocals a little more.

~ New Americana is on the verge of becoming blue/pink. It is getting kind of old.

~ Stressed Out is so good. Enough said.

~ I didn't expect Hello to drop to #5. Okay.

~ I didn't think Confident was #1 material. I was proven wrong, but I am not complaining.

~ Spyder forgot to mention the exit of Victorious. But now its on Hit-Bound?

1. Adele - Hello (#1)

Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: Meghan Trainor/John Legend - Like I'm Gonna Lose You (-21)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: One Direction - Drag Me Down (+12)

Debuts

~ Tove Lo is back with Moments. This song is actually pretty good. I think Tove Lo's voice is really dark in most of her songs. Anyways, this song is really catchy at some parts and I hope it has some success on the countdown like Tove Lo's previous hit, Talking Body from 2015.

~ The Chainsmokers/ROZES - Roses is pretty good in my opinion. I really love the sound of the EDM. The lyrics are strange but the vocals are rather intriguing. Aside from that, I really think the song has a shot at doing pretty good on the countdown.

Out Of The Blurbs

~ Yes, I know I have not done blurbs in quite some time. So let's get right into it.

~ You have no idea how happy I am that Thinking Out Loud left. I literally freaked out. I am also really happy about Downtown leaving the countdown.

~ When is Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean? going to leave? This is seriously annoying me. It's such a space filler.

~ The drop from Like I'm Gonna Lose You was good in my opinion. I am starting to fade on this song and for most of the time it just stayed in the 14-22 range.

~ Can Photograph, Renegades, and Can't Feel My Face leave already? They are all starting to become intolerable.

~ Gwen Stefani - Used To Love You is doing absolutely nothing on this countdown. I really want it to jump, but the highest it has gotten is #29. Hits 1 needs to recognize sometimes that some of the song that they have high up on the countdown are not hits anymore.

~ Andy Grammer - Good To Be Alive (Hallelujah) is kind of bland and isn't really doing much either.

~ S.O.B. is not a hit anywhere. This song is not recognized on any radio stations and is a complete piece of trash. It needs to exit the countdown before it gets into the top 20.

~ The drop from Shut Up And Dance was needed. Hits 1 was clingier (is that a word?) with this song than they were on any Taylor Swift or Fall Out Boy song. Hopefully, we can get this song out of the top 20 because it is old.

~ Taylor Swift - Out Of The Woods is 100% welcomed into the top 10.

~ We almost have a perfect top 10, we just need Stitches, Ex's & Oh's, and Drag Me Down to leave the top 10 and have three green songs enter in their place.

~ I think Hello can manage to pull off the top spot for thirteen weeks.

~ Magnets, Wake Up, and Another Lonely Night should have entered the countdown this week. Hopefully they will enter next week.

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Robin Schulz/Francesco Yates - Sugar

#1 Recommendation For You: The Weeknd - Might Not*

New Artist To Check Out: G Eazy

*Yes, I know this song's lead singer is Belly. I strongly dislike his verses in this song though. This song will be premiering on The Hot 45 Chart Next Big Songs this weekend, just as The Weeknd. So, yes do not be confused with this.

Bottom 5 Countdown Songs:

1. Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats - S.O.B.

2. Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean?

3. The Weeknd - Can't Feel My Face

4. X Ambassadors - Renegades

5. Ed Sheeran - Photograph

Top 5 Countdown Songs:

1. Taylor Swift - Out Of The Woods

2. Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams

3. Adele - Hello

4. Shawn Mendes/Camila Cabello - I Know What You Did Last Summer

5. Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out

The Hot 45 Chart will be out soon!

Love ya fam!
