#1 Song This Week One Year Ago- The Chainsmokers/Kelsea Ballerini- This Feeling (2nd/7 weeks)

New Entrants

~First we'll start off with Panini. Man, I don't what to say here. It's just a really fun song, to be honest. Everything is great but like what do I say about this song.

~Next up is Wanted and to be honest I don't even remember this song. Will I care to listen to it again? If it comes on the radio then sure, but I'm not wasting my time on it. Overall, it's kind of just here but so was Rescue Me which was a bit better though.

~Next is South Of The Border. Well, one thing is for sure, that production is shaky. Hell, it even gets annoying at some point with that same instrument playing or whatever gives it the tropical-vibe. However, the voices are better. Ed's ok, Camila tries too hard for a simple, and Cardi B well...

~Finally we have Don't Start Now. So this song was very shaky to me at first. Her voice seemed a bit weird to me at the start, but I grew into it. To be honest, it's great and simple and a nice dance tune. I like the chorus and the verses are pretty good. She has a nice flow as well. Overall, what can I say? It's a great song though it's nothing special.

Don't Blurb Now

~First off, good job Niall you've taken another week away from Capaldildo.

~I don't even know what the hell to talk about.

~How Do You Sleep? and Trampoline has been chilling out I see.

~Who Do You Love and If We Have Each Other need to be gone soon. As much as I like the former it's just too much overstaying here.

~You Need To Calm Down did a good thing this week finally taking a nice drop again.

~As far as exits go, Look At Her Now was stupid and nothing special so that's cool that it's gone, it got nowhere anyway. I'm lowkey pissed about the 2-week stay of Watermelon Sugar because it's really good. Lights Up didn't stay long either which is surprising so I suppose Adore You is the main runner of his album. Finally, was i'm lonely. Welp, it sounds stupid now, but it was good at the beginning.

New Trainees

~Good Thing is pretty great. I like the production from Zedd and Kehlani does really good.

~Mind In A Prison is based on one-time listen and it's decent. I like the production, but his voice brings the song down a bit.

~Play Your Game is borderline decent. Simple and under-worked lyrics, whiny voice, it's really the production boosting it which is also simple.

~Cuz I Love You is really bad. Random noises with Lizzo screeching.
