Debuts: 

Morgan Wallen debuts with Love Somebody. This is really fun and is easily my favorite song from him.

ROSÉ from Blackpink collabs with Bruno Mars with APT. This song is such a bop. This is the most fun song I've heard in a while. This kinda has a late 2000s vibe, it reminds me a lot of That's Not My Name by The Ting Tings. This song is so stupidly fun and ROSÉ and Bruno sound great together.


Countdown Extra: Gigi Perez - Sailor Song

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Tie between Lady Gaga/Bruno Mars - Die With A Smile and Myles Smith - Stargazing [+4]

Biggest DRRRRRRROP!!! Of The Week: Coldplay/Little Simz/Burna Boy/Elyanna/TINI - WE PRAY [-7]

Last year's #1 song: Tate McRae - greedy (2/11 long weeks at #1)

Favorite song last year: AJR - Yes I'm A Mess

Least favorite song last year: Billie Eilish - What Was I Made For?

Most missed song: The Killers - The Man (2017)

Recommendation for Hits 1: Darwin Deez - Caroline

Jason Derulo and Jawsh 685 collab to make Savage Love part 2 called Make Me Happy. This is fun, but isn't nearly as good as Savage Love.

We really did not need more Midsey. She's here with Panic Attack. This is not interesting to listen to at all.

Lady Gaga is back with more glitch pop that she's known for with Disease. I usually love her upbeat songs but this seems kinda forgettable.

Akon is a name I haven't heard in a while. He hasn't been seen on hits 1 since Who Dat Girl in 2011. He debuts with Akon's Beautiful Day. This is fun and Akon sounds great as always.

Damiano David is back with Born With A Broken Heart and luckily this is a lot more upbeat than Silverlines. This is still kinda forgettable though.


Exits:

Ava Max - Spot A Fake [5]

Kylie Minogue - Lights Camera Action [4]

David Guetta/Alphaville/Ava Max - Forever Young [1]

These were all great and deserved better.



Abyss

Charli XCX/Ariana Grande - Sympathy is a knife (remix)

Billie Eilish - WILDFLOWER

Chappell Roan - Pink Pony Club

Sabrina Carpenter - Bed Chem

LISA - Moonlit Floor

Alex Warren - Burning Down

The Neighbourhood - Sweater Weather

Taylor Swift - So High School

Gracie Abrams - I Love You, I'm Sorry

The Kid LAROI - GIRLS

Chappell Roan - Femininomenon

Eminem - Houdini

David Guetta/OneRepublic - I Don't Wanna Wait

Harry Styles - Daylight


I just wanna blurb somebody:

We lost Sympathy is a knife and Wildflower. I'm not really sure why Hits 1 picked up on these non singles to begin with.

Looks like It's ok, I'm ok is flopping. I really thought this was gonna do well.

Austin is just refusing to go away at this point.

Taste faded on me again. So did Close To You.

Stargazing really didn't need to jump back to #4.

Billie Eilish finally gets her first #1 on the countdown with BIRDS OF A FEATHER. This isn't the best song from her, but at least it's a lot better than her weird 2021 crap.

That's all for now, see you all next week!
