Debuts:
Debuting out of nowhere is Taylor Swift with I Can Do It With A Broken Heart. I don't think this has been pushed as a single yet but I guess I'll take it. This is slightly better than Fortnight. This is a lot more upbeat and Taylor still sounds great.
twenty one pilots are back with Backslide. This is just very boring and forgettable and not nearly as good as Overcompensate.
Doja Cat is back with OKLOSER. This is alright. The production is pretty upbeat and Doja Cat sounds decent.
Countdown Extra: Lay Bankz - Tell Ur Girlfriend
Biggest Jump Of The Week: Taylor Swift/Post Malone - Fortnight [+13]
Biggest DRRRRRRROP!!! Of The Week: Tie between Beyoncé - TEXAS HOLD 'EM and Meghan Trainor/T-Pain - Been Like This [-5]

Gracie Abrams returns with Risk. This is alright. The production is basic and Gracie sounds good. This is better than I Know It Won't Work but not as great as Where Do We Go Now.
Dua Lipa just released her new album Radical Optimism, and for some reason Hits 1 decided to pick up on the most mid song on the album These Walls. Dua Lipa sounds amazing as always but the production is super forgettable. End Of An Era and Maria were much better songs to pick.
Oh, a random song that I actually know. Forrest Frank from the duo Surfaces and Connor Price, who's basically a Nic D clone, are here with UP. This song actually bubbled under my personal charts back in March so I'm glad to see Hits 1 finally picking up on this. Both of them sound great and the production is super fun.
The Chainsmokers and rapper Fridayy are here with Friday. This is basically just a worse version of Roses. The drop is great but the rest of the song is kinda boring.
This next song is apparently going viral. It's Tommy Richman with MILLION DOLLAR BABY. The production kinda slaps and he sounds pretty good.
How has Change Your Mind still not debuted yet? It's been in the top 10 of airplay for 2 weeks now.
Exits:
Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe! [3]
Mark Ambor - Belong Together [3]
Good Luck, Babe and Belong Together find themselves in the abyss, and DUMB wasn't that great.
Abyss
Shaboozey - A Bar Song (Tipsy)
Harry Styles - Daylight
Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe!
Mark Ambor - Belong Together
Jagwar Twin - Bad Feeling (Oompa Loompa)

Benson Boone - Slow It Down
Lady Gaga/Ariana Grande - Rain On Me
Hayes Warner/Billy B/Kevin Rudolf - Just A Girl
Jelly Roll/Lainey Wilson - Save Me
OKBLURBER:
We lost Kissing Strangers, Selfish, and Not My Fault. Kissing Strangers and Selfish were good but insanely forgettable, and Not My Fault was great but was getting kinda old.
On My Mama has grown on me a lot again and is now my purple song.
How is Training Season still at #4? It was the least played countdown song last week.
Too Sweet jumped to #3. Hopefully Hozier can finally get his first #1 on the countdown.
Let's go, Godson Boone is still #1 this week. But we can't be friends jumped to #2, can Ariana finally get her first #1 on the countdown?
That's all for now, see you all next week!
