#1 Song This Week One Year Ago- Zedd/Maren Morris/Grey- The Middle (4th/9 weeks)
New Entrants
~First off will be In Betweenin'. I'm genuinely surprised it debuted this quick, even before other songs on HitBound like bury a friend. Anyways, onto the song. Let's talk about his voice. Yes I know he sounds like a kid, which was the let-down to Let Me Down Slowly for most of us. Like said when that song debuted, I can withstand both voices and not throw a temper-tantrum unlike some other bloggers did. Now, onto the rest of it. Yeah sure, the lyrical content might not be the best and pretty generic, but I tend not to care about it (discounting Wait For You). The production is good and keeps its pace with his voice which is great too. So yeah, it's a really good song overall.
~Next is Walk Me Home. For some time P!nk has been under the radar lately, ignoring her part on The Greatest Showman: Reimagined Soundtrack. Other than that, her last appearance was I believe Beautiful Trauma on this list. I like this song better. Her voice sounds better, and the production is good. I feel like this is a low-key good song, and honestly, I'm not surprised if it flops because it did everywhere else.
Best Debut Of The Week: Austin Brown- In Betweenin'
Blurb Me Home
~Let's start off with Hits 1 and their Bottom 5. Because holy crap they're right on time for once! Love Lies, The Way I Am, I'm A Mess, and Natural are kinda overdue and need to go. As for Girls Like You, it probably could rebound, but staying there is fi e considering it's dying elsewhere.
~The debuts didn't move much. Harry, Genius, 11 Minutes, and Hurts Like Hell either dropped or held its spot. However, GIRL and All The Ways, the ones in the lower half of debuts I favor in moved up. I mean GIRL I understand because it's getting somewhere, but All The Ways, really?
~Shallow took a huge jump tying Dancing With A Stranger for the biggest jump of the year so far, but it's kind of overdue so it probably won't last unless the voters can keep up there.
~Bad Liar, High Hopes, and Who Do You Love took unexpected jumps. The last two were always vulnerable to take big jumps, but the former? Wow, props to the voters and Hits 1 to pushing it up there.
~When it comes to drops, Let Me Down Slowly is probably done which is about good timing considering it likely made year-end. Happier and This Feeling fell out of the Top 10 and they both locked year-end so it's fine if they leave.
~365 took a sudden rebound, but that won't last long considering the flop it took on Billboard.
~And FINALLY 2002 took the biggest drop. However, that's not good enough considering it didn't even drop out of the Top 30.
~As far as exits go, Sue Me was an absolute flop because Sabrina Carpenter so it was just a filler on here. Next was Don't Go Breaking My Heart. Honestly, this song was an absolute ass. The vocals, production, and I guess I'll bring in lyrical content all were bad. It was really trash and was WAY overdue considering it flopped back in FREAKING AUGUST (discounting that The Middle was overdue longer.)

New Trainees
~First can be Thinkin Bout You. Like P!nk, Ciara has been under the radar lately. Her new song is pretty decent. I like her voice, but not much of the production. I like this song, but not really would like to listen to this as much as the songs in green. More about this IF it debuts.
~Finally is Juice. So I've heard this a couple of times, and I didn't like it. I don't like her voice, it sounds scratchy. The production that may buy me into liking this. The soul-ish, hip-hop/R&B whatever production this is considered, is not all that bad. I just think her voice ruins the song.
