Debuts:
Hits 1 is 2 months late on picking up on this song. The Weeknd and Playboi Carti collab for a second time with Timeless. This is fine, I guess, but this is extremely forgettable.
SZA is back with BMF. This is pretty fun, and luckily this became the single instead of Drive.
After debuting hitbound a month ago, Lola Young finally makes her Hits 1 debut with Messy. I wasn't a big fan of this when I first heard it, but it's grown on me a bit. The production is pretty catchy and Lola's raspy voice somehow works.
Countdown Extra: The Marías - No One Noticed
Biggest Jump Of The Week: Gracie Abrams - I Love You, I'm Sorry [+8]
Biggest DRRRRRRROP!!! Of The Week: Sabrina Carpenter - Taste [-8]
Last year's #1 song: Tate McRae - greedy (10/11 long weeks at #1)
Favorite song last year: Ariana Grande - yes, and?
Least favorite song last year: Jack Harlow - Lovin On Me
Most missed song: Eddie Murphy - Party All The Time (1985)

Tyla is back with PUSH 2 START. This is pretty fun and Tyla sounds great.
Oh great, another unreleased Hayes Warner song Hits 1 picked up on a week before it actually releases. She's back with Oh. This is pretty fun but slightly forgettable.
We have someone named Vella, real name Gabriella Valdes, with All My Love. This is a fun little bop and her voice is great.
We have a second song called Slow Motion this year, but unfortunately this is way worse than Jonah Marais' song with the same name. Marshmello and Jonas Brothers collab for a second time since Leave Before You Love Me in 2021. This sounds extremely mid but the Jonas Brothers sound great as always.
What is with all these no-names this week, this song only has 4k streams on Spotify. Someone named Alessi Rose is here with IKYK. This is kinda fun but again is very forgettable.
toxic till the end reentered. drinks or coffee was so much better.
Ok no one asked for more Willow Avalon. She's back with Baby Blue. I've never had the chance to talk about Willow since I was bloggericided when she was on Hits 1. She was the Hits 1 to watch and had an extremely mid song Stranger on the countdown, and another mid song Honey Ain't No Sweeter that dropped out of hitbound. Baby Blue is her worst song so far. The production is pretty boring and I'm not a big fan of Willow's voice.
Exits:
Balu Brigada - So Cold [16]
Twenty One Pilots - The Line [8]
Ariana Grande/Cynthia Erivo - What Is This Feeling? [2]
ROSÉ - drinks or coffee [3]
RAYE - Oscar Winning Tears [5]
The Marías - No One Noticed [9] SOTW
almost monday - can't slow down [11]
Good riddance to So Cold and can't slow down which lasted way too long. The Line was mid. drinks or coffee got replaced by a worse song from her. What Is This Feeling deserved better. And Oscar Winning Tears and No One Noticed find themselves in the abyss.
Abyss
The Marías - No One Noticed
RAYE - Oscar Winning Tears
JENNIE - Mantra
Lady Gaga - Disease
Myles Smith - Nice To Meet You
Megan Moroney - Am I Okay?
Akon - Akon's Beautiful Day
Harry Styles - Daylight
I could be a millionaire, but I would rather fry my blurbs:
We lost Dancing In The Flames, Close To You, and Hello Miss Johnson. Hello Miss Johnson was an actual decent Jack Harlow song but it faded on me a lot. And good riddance to Dancing In The Flames and Close To You which both got very annoying, especially Close To You which stuck around way too long.
How in the actual hell is Sailor Song almost in the top 10?
Taste took a big tumble but it deserved an even bigger one.
BIRDS OF A FEATHER has left the top 5 for the first time in 4 months.
Bed Chem jumped to #3. It's only a matter of time until it reaches #1.
Nice to see APT hold at #1.
That's all for now, see you all next week!
