#1 Song This Week One Tear Ago- Taylor Swift/Ed Sheeran/Future- End Game (1st week/1 week at #1)
New Entrants
~ First off will be Ocean To Ocean. To start off, since it's a spin-off of Toto's Africa, this isn't all that bad. Weezer's remake was ass and boring. This has a little Mexican twist in my opinion, which probably does sound weird. Anyways, Rhea's [art is good, but I don't see why exactly Pitbull is on the track. I also feel like his lyrics were written in 5 seconds. Yes, I know it's for the Aquaman:
The Soundtrack, so I see why, but even then don't let it be a single. Other than that, it's a pretty good cover but will never top the original.
~Next is 1999. This song was good, but gets annoying and boring real quick. Charli's vocals are pretty good, but Troye's voice doesn't fit with at most, it's decent production. The lyrics are way too cliche, and I know that's the point of the song, but it could be written a little better. It's lucky that it's out of red for right now.
~Next is Be Alright. Dean Lewis is a pretty solid singer with a pretty solid voice. I like the lyrics, they sound like they were thoroughly written. Dean's voice fits with the production perfectly and the chorus and pre-chorus is the best part. The better do good, considering it's somewhat a hit.
~Next is Grip. Now as you know this did debut on My Top 40, but then left the following week. This song is great on first listen, but then it gets more boring and blander after each listen. The vocals also get pretty boring. Overall, this may the worst debut of the week, and for me, I can see this going red soon. Also, those beat drops are sort-of okay, but putting Dan's voice to make it look like he inhaled a bunch of helium doesn't fit well and kills the beat drop too.
~Finally is You Say. After all, it's not that bad. The only problem is the production. It's too generic and gets boring when you heard the song again and again. Her vocals are nice I know it's supposed to be a "Christian"-pop song, but the lyrics are very generic if you want to point to the "Christian" end of it.
Let Me Blurb Slowly
~Not many noticeable drops nor jumps this week. However, soon enough Say Amen and breathin' will leave because of new HitBound entrants and we'll get to that later.
~At this point once In My Blood moves up from #45 it'll surely drop out the following week.
~Seems like Hits 1 is still pushing Sweet But Psycho, Let Me Down Slowly, Hey look Ma, I Made It, and for some reason Natural.
~When it comes down to #1s, Without Me will probably hold for 1 more week or not, because it seems Hits 1 is just rushing than u, next to #1 so they aren't late with it.
~As you can see some songs on the list are getting old, but will evidently turn gold because they are still good, but have died everywhere else.
~Seems like Expectations could be done, which is fine because it's not a hit.
~As far as exits go, There's No Way was never a hit so I can see why it dropped out. Waste It On Me flopped hard and I saw that coming. Electricity and Woman Like Me had good runs, but I think the latter should've spent more time on here. As for Consequences, that was a shock. It needed more time here too considering it only two months on here and somewhat still going strong everywhere else.

~ First will be I'm So Tired. I've only heard this once so here's a summary. Forgettable. Lauv is at most decent, but Troye's voice doesn't sound good with again, the at most decent production.
~Next Is Panic! At The Disco's Dancing's Not A Crime. My summary is more upbeat, pretty good vocals, but not the best and like Adrian said, it sounds like AJR would sing it. Also, this song will debut the week Say Amen dropouts because of my logic.
~Majority of the songs that debut will just be a summary. Anyways, Let You Love Me. I think this is the first time we've seen Rita since Avicii's Lonely Together? I like her voice, but the production is nice. The chorus is nice, but I do think the verses could be longer because it sounds like there is no pause between the chorus and the next round.
~Next is Bad Liar. Good vocals, good production, great chorus, Dan's voice fits well with the production too. No screaming, yay. This'll probably debut on Machine's dropout week.
~Finally is 7 Rings. This song is great, good voice, really great production. However, the lyrics just make it her flex anthem which I don't care it just goes to show you how careless celebrities can be with money, but the rings for best friends is cute. This'll probably debut next week or the following which will probably be the end of breathin'.
