Countdown Extra: Bazzi - Will It Ever Feel The Same
My favorite song last year: Jax - 90s Kids
My least favorite song last year: Billie Eilish - Your Power
Most missed countdown song: Conor Maynard - Vegas Girl (2012)
New Arrivals:
Wow, Supermodel by Maneskin might be the best song I've heard in a while. This song is influenced by 90s rock bands like Nirvana. The opening guitar rift is from Smells Like Teen Spirit.
I'm not a fan of rap music, Post Malone, or Roddy Rich, so I'm not the biggest fan of Cooped Up.
Last is 5 Seconds Of Summer with Me, Myself, And I. This song is good, but nothing special. It's defiantly better than Complete Mess.

Conor Maynard is back after 10 years with PGNL. If you didn't know, Conor actually had some songs on the countdown back in 2012, Vegas Girl and Turn Around with Ne-Yo. Go listen to Vegas Girl, it will bring back memories of the summer of 2012. This song is pretty good, but I doubt it will debut.
After Numb Little Bug, Em Beihold has Too Precious. Numb Little Bug is starting to fade on me, so I think I like Too Precious more.
John Legend is back after 5 years with Dope. I'm not the biggest fan of John Legend's voice (I didn't really like All Of Me), but this song is alright.
Harry Styles' new album Harry's House just released, and I am blown away. You can tell the songs were inspired by 80s artists like David Bowie. My favorite song from the album is Music For A Sushi Restaurant. It reminds me of Fame by David Bowie. Late Night Talking is also a good song. As It Was is starting to fade on me.
We have some Tik Tok star named Stephen Sanchez with Until I Found You. It's a very boring song and reminds me of The Walters I Love You So.
88rising/Bibi is back for some reason. The Weekend spent 4 months in hitbound. Best Lover is okay, but I think I like The Weekend more.
Last is Tai Verdes with 100sadsongs. Tai Verdes is one of my least favorite singers, AOK was super annoying and was one of my least favorite songs last year. I don't know how he did it, but 100sadsongs is even worse than AOK. 100sadsongs is very boring and uninteresting. At least AOK was interesting to listen to.
This week we lost In The Stars, This Is What Falling In Love Feels Like, and Where You Are. These songs all sucked and I'm glad they're gone.
She's a 90s superblurb:
This week we lost The Motto, To The Moon, and Hold My Hand. The Motto is an amazing song, but was starting to get old, so I'm okay that it's gone. To The Moon was a horrible song and shouldn't have been anywhere near the radio. Hold My Hand was just another piano ballad (I'm not a big fan of piano ballads) but Lady Gaga's voice was alright.
Can Enemy leave already? This song is starting to get on my nerves.
Sweetest Pie is also starting to get annoying.
RIP Love It When You Hate Me. It's had the biggest drop for 3 weeks. This song is starting to get old, so I don't mind if it leaves.
Maybe You're The Problem is an amazing song. How is it only at #21?
Sunroof keeps climbing. This song is amazing and is the perfect summer song. I was sad when this song left hitbound and I thought it was gone forever. Then I randomly started hearing it on the radio and it debuted on the countdown the next week.
To no one's surprise, Harry Styles is #1 for a second week. Hits 1 loves 1 Direction members, and especially Harry Styles. Will it break the #1 record? Who knows, but we didn't think Shivers would either.
