Debuts:
Wow, it's been a very hot minute since Kehlani has been on the countdown. She was last seen with her feature on Charlie Puth's Done For Me in 2018, and this is actually her first ever solo song on the countdown. Folded isn't really my thing. Kehlani sounds good here, but this is just some boring forgettable R&B song.
Countdown Extra: Thomas Day - she got a thing about her

Chappell Roan is back again with a song called The Subway after The Giver flopped hard. I usually love Chappell Roan, but I'm not feeling this song. This seems extremely boring. But hopefully this can grow on me.
Reneé Rapp just released her new album BITE ME, and here we have You'd Like That Wouldn't You. This is pretty good. The production is pretty interesting and she sounds good. Still not as good as Leave Me Alone though.
Wow, it's been a very hot minute since we've heard from Demi Lovato. She hasn't been seen on Hits 1 since 2022 with SKIN OF MY TEETH, 29, and SUBSTANCE. Fast is pretty good. I really like the dark EDM production and Demi sounds great as always, but this still seems a bit forgettable. I have a feeling this might grow on me though.
Lastly we have more Russell Dickerson because we totally needed more of him. Happen To Me is a solid country song, but not something that I would want to revisit.

You stole the blurbs:
Just 1 exit this week, party 4 u. This was extremely long and boring and did not deserve to become a hit at all.
This was not a very interesting countdown. There was only one song that moved more than 3 spots.
Can Betty please do something besides rot in the bottom 5?
Busy Woman had barely any airplay this week yet it reentered the top 10.
Mystical Magical jumped to #3. Hopefully this gets #1 next week instead of Manchild.
Ordinary has finally reached #1...2 months after it already went #1 on Mediabase, and having hardly any airplay. Better late than never I guess. I do not like this song at all, but at least it overthrew Sabrina the clown from #1.
That's all for now, see you all next week!
Last week's poll of the week results:
Best Top 5 Song This Week in 2020?
- Dua Lipa - Break My Heart: 37.5 % (3 votes)
- Lady Gaga/Ariana Grande - Rain On Me: 37.5 % (3 votes)
- Harry Styles - Watermelon Sugar: 25 % (2 votes)
Why would you rather have Ordinary at #1 than Manchild at #1, even though you have Manchild as good and Ordinary as decent?
ReplyDeletecuz Sabrina is becoming too damn overrated, even if I do like Manchild more.
