Miley Cyrus has released her new album Something Beautiful, and here she is with Easy Lover. This is actually pretty fun and Miley doesn't sound too bad. This is so much better than End Of The World. But isn't nearly as good as the Ellie Goulding song of the same name.

We have our second song from the F1 movie soundtrack, Tate McRae with Just Keep Watching. This has some pretty cool production and Tate sounds good.

Great just what we needed, some random nobody. We have someone named SIENNA SPIRO who I know nothing about because her Spotify description only says "19" which is super helpful, is here with Dream Police. There seems to be 2 different versions of this song, the original and a "Colors Show" remix. I believe Hits 1 played the Colors Show remix because the original was too slow for what I remember hitbound playing. This is actually a pretty good song. She has a great voice, and the production while starts off slow, starts to get interesting by the end of the song.

Exits:

• Ed Sheeran - Old Phone [4]
• Dove Cameron - French Girls [4]
• Emei - Crazy Stupid Love [13]

Crazy Stupid Love lasted way too long. And Old Phone and French Girls were just alright.

Blurb police:

There were no exits, so nothing to talk about there.

Yeah this was an incredibly boring week. Literally nothing happened. There were only 2 drops/jumps more than 2 and the entire top 4 didn't change. The only notable event was End of the World jumping +9 all the way to #6, which I'm not super happy for, and a -6 drop from Good News, which I am happy for.

party 4 u has grown on me slightly, and is no longer my orange song. 30 For 30 has gotten quite annoying recently and now becomes my orange song.

Sally, When The Wine Runs Out was #1 in airplay this week but didn't move at all.

Bad Dreams was the least played countdown song this week yet it somehow reentered the top 5.

I'm shocked Busy Woman didn't take #1 this week. But it's only a matter of time until it does take #1.

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