Debuts:
Eww, why are we making this first song a hit? Myles Smith is here with his next single Heaven from his debut album "My Mess, My Heart, My Life". Ugh, this is way too boring, but at least Myles sounds decent I guess.
We have a random 3 year old Beaches song trending again called Edge of the Earth, due to it being featured on the Off Campus Amazon show. This has grown on me a little bit since it first debuted hitbound. The indie rock production is pretty upbeat, but this is pretty forgettable, and not as great as Blame Brett.
Our last debut is a song that was actually recorded in 2015, but just now released. Martin Garrix makes his first appearance on the countdown in over 7 years since Summer Days in 2019, and collabs with Ed Sheeran on Repeat It. This is a really nice EDM song with a great drop, and Ed Sheeran sounds great as always. Nice to see this getting such a high debut, and hopefully it does well.

Well, we finally have a new Benson Boone single called The Time Of My Life. Eww, what did I just listen to? He went from Godson Boone back to Benson Snooze. This is way too boring, and Benson doesn't sound that good either. Can we not let this become a hit please?
sombr is back with another single My Body Isn't Ready. This is fine. It's slightly better than Potential. But this is just extremely forgettable.
Former Hits 1 to watch Ethan Burdick, who was a 1TW for what felt like 2 seconds, is here with another single Hold You. Omg, I didn't know he could make an upbeat song. The production is pretty fun and Ethan sounds good. Mikey Piff said this sounded like Shawn Mendes. This sounds more like a cross between Shawn Mendes and Alex Warren. Let's see if this ends up growing on me.
We have another single from Gracie Abrams' upcoming album called Look at My Life. This is a bit better than Hit The Wall. It's a lot more upbeat, but it's still pretty forgettable.
We have another Charli XCX single for the millionth time called Wink Wink. This is pretty fun. Not as great as Rock Music, but a lot better than SS26.
Finally, we have a great debut for once. Marshmello teamed up with Kelsea Ballerini on Another Drink. The EDM production is super fun, and almost sounds kinda Chainsmoker-ey, and Kelsea sounds great as always.
We have yet another Ravyn Lenae song. Saturday Night is very forgettable. This isn't nearly as great as Handle. I really hope Handle can come back at some point, because it was such a great song.
Ok, who the hell is this last person? Some random nobody named Alyssa Grace is here with a song called bloodstream. What the heck is this crap? What is wrong with her voice? The production isn't even that bad. Her voice just makes we want to bang my head against the wall. I don't even know how to describe her voice. It sounds like a cross between a dying whale, a dying chimpanzee, a dying vacuum cleaner, a dying industrial fan, a dying garbage disposal, and a dying pencil sharpener. I was originally going to put this as the orange song. But then I listened to it a few more times. And honestly, this might be so bad it's good. Her voice is so bad, it kinda makes me laugh. So idk, this song might grow on me, who knows.

I'm really sad Lush Life never got a chance to debut.
Happy 2 Blurb:
We lost Elizabeth Taylor, I Get the Picture, and SPEED DEMON. Good riddance to I Get the Picture, which might be one of the worst one to watch we've ever had. Elizabeth Taylor was getting old so it needed to leave. And RIP to SPEED DEMON, it was fun and deserved better.
I guess iloveitiloveitiloveit, Sexy For Me, Babydoll, and Earrings are all going to continue to do absolutely nothing.
Can SHE DID IT AGAIN just go away already please? It's obviously not doing anything, and it's just clogging up space for better songs.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....why did I Knew It, I Knew You have a massive 17 spot jump into the top 10? When not even Swifties like this song, then you know this song is the definition of radio filler.
How is Mr. Know It All already up to #4? I guess I'll take it.
The top 3 has still yet to move 3 weeks in a row.
That's all for now, see you all next week!
