Debuts:
Post Malone and Doja Cat collabed with I Like You (A Happier Song). I don't really like either of these artists, but this song is pretty good.
Panic! At The Disco has their first song on the countdown in 2 years after 2020's Into The Unknown. I've grown to like Viva Las Vengeance. The first time I heard it, I was disappointed. But after hearing it on Hits 1 a few times, I've started to like it. Some people aren't a fan of key changes, but it adds emotion to a song. Overall a pretty good song.
Post Malone has a second song on the countdown with Wrapped Around Your Finger. This is better than I Like You. I prefer pop Malone than rap Malone.
Lady Gaga's Hold My Hand has reentered the countdown. I've grown to like this song since it left after I saw the Top Gun movie and heard it on Hits 1 a couple of times. Unfortunately, I don't think this song is going to last much longer.
Now for the weirdest song I think I have ever heard in my life. Jiggle Jiggle by Duke & Jones and Louis Theroux. Apparently, Louis Theroux is a British journalist, and Duke & Jones remixed a video of him talking. This song is just plain stupid. And I love it! I found myself humming "my money don't jiggle jiggle, it folds" all day. This is my favorite song on the countdown. This song is so stupid, you can't hate it. This is also the shortest song ever on the countdown, at barely over a minute and a half.

Halsey is back with So Good. It's a solid Halsey song. It's much better than i am not a woman, i'm a god. I hope this does well.
Alessia Cara is back after her flopped Sweet Dream, along with Eddie Benjamin with Only You. It's a slower 70s song, but Alessia's voice is amazing, as always, so this song is pretty good.
Up next is Lizzo with Grrrls. This song is okay, I guess. I feel like she's oversinging a bit. This song is giving me Cuz I Love You vibes (remember that song?), which is not a good thing.
Demi Lovato is back with Skin Of My Teeth. Is it just me, or is Celebrity Skin by Doja Cat and Skin Of My Teeth the same song? When I first heard Skin Of My Teeth, I'm like I've heard this song before. Then I listened to Celebrity Skin and they sound almost identical. They even have the same opening guitar rift. Skin Of My Teeth is still a pretty good song overall, and I hope it does better than Celebrity Skin.
Saweetie is back along with someone I don't know called Muni Long with Baby Boo. I'm not a big fan of R&B but this song is pretty good.
Next is someone I haven't heard of named Charlotte Sands with Dress. Apparently this song was released in 2020 but hasn't gotten popular til now. This is a pretty good song, it brings back summer of 2014 vibes.
Now the best song for last. Marshmello and Khalid have collabed again after 2018's Silence, with Numb. This is a great EDM and summer song.
Exits:
Overthinking - Mabel, 24kGoldn
Too Precious - Em Beihold
GFY - blackbear, Machine Gun Kelly
Don't Lose Sight - Lawrence
Something To Someone - Dermot Kennedy
Overthinking, Too Precious, and GFY were amazing, and deserved better. Don't Lose Sight was here way too long, and should have left a long time ago. Something To Someone was not that good, so I'm okay that it's gone.
Abyss:
I Love You So - The Walters
Get Into It (Yuh) - Doja Cat
Potion - Calvin Harris, Dua Lipa, Young Thug
Don't Forget My Love - Diplo, Miguel
Music For a Sushi Restaurant - Harry Styles
this is what falling in love feels - JVKE
I Love U - The Chainsmokers
My money don't jiggle jiggle, it blurbs:
We lost Flowers, Cooped Up, Get into it(Yuh), Potion, and Honest. I wasn't a big fan of Cooped Up. Honest was okay. Flowers had the biggest jump last week then left this week. Get into it(Yuh) and Potion only lasted on week and find themselves in the abyss.
Enemy keeps dropping. It should leave within a week or two.
I've come around to Until I Found You. Stephen Sanchez's voice isn't the best, but it's far from horrible. I'm kinda digging the 50s vibe.
Sweetest Pie and All 4 Nothing are both super annoying, but I think Sweetest Pie annoys me slightly more. All 4 Nothing might be my least favorite song if it sticks around much longer.
she's all i wanna be had the biggest drop. This song is amazing, but it's kinda getting old.
Late Night Talking had the biggest jump. This is going to replace As (Ass) It Was at #1 really soon.
As (Ass) It Was is #1 for a 5th week in a row. How long until Late Night Talking replaces it? Hopefully soon.
Goodbye, see you all next week!
