Biggest DROP- Mark Ronson/Camila Cabello- Find U Again (-10)

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago- Fall Out Boy- The Last Of The Real Ones (2nd/2 weeks)

Blurb Hurts
~This was quite the week, wasn't it?

~Hopefully we have a nice 7-week exit next week because now majority if not all of the older songs are now in the Bottom 10.

~Goodbyes made some movement this week if you compare to the other jumps of +1 and +2 and I hope its #10 and doesn't hit #11 like Sunflower which was screwed over completely.

~Find U Again takes a nice drop into the Bottom 10 so I think this is the end of its short-lived run.

~One Thought Away makes really good movement. It's a very underrated song and deserves to be pushed like...Sexual Vibe yeah push to Top 20.
