Debuts:

Hayes Warner debuts with Oh, a song that just released this week. I talked about this last week. The rock production sounds great and the lyrics are cleverly written.

I Am Not Okay and It's Ok I'm Ok replace themselves with Am I Okay, a former abyss song that's... well, okay. This might grow on me, but it's really just another generic country-pop song.

Vella gets her first countdown appearance with All My Love. I feel like this is also going to grow on me at some point, but for now it's just good. My opinion stands from when I first reviewed it.

Myles Smith is here again with Nice To Meet You, and it's... well, better than Stargazing? Yeah, I don't think we need any more Myles Smith on the countdown, this is a very boring song.

And finally, the best debut comes from Raye. Oscar Winning Tears is an amazing song. The lyrics are amazingly written and its genre-blending production gives it such a nice sound.


Biggest Jump: Teddy Swims - Bad Dreams, Addison Rae - Diet Pepsi (+12)

Biggest Drop: Ariana Grande - Popular (-11)

Missed song: Ariana Grande - One Last Time

Recommendation for Hits 1: Lucy Dacus - Ankles


Blurb me at the apt:

Touch will be greatly missed. Otherwise... Criminals was okay. 2 Hands was okay. And both songs with "okay" in the name were okay.

Messy is growing on me a lot.

Popular took a hard fall. I'm okay with this, I'd rather have Defying Gravity get success on pop radio.

Diet Pepsi jumped to a new peak, and still after over four months, it hasn't seen the top half of the countdown yet.

I have no idea why Burning Down is still on here after losing all of its airplay momentum on Hits 1 this week.

How has Apple survived over one month into winter now, and now climbing up the countdown again? This never even reached the top 10 and it's looking like it might eventually join the 30+ weeks club with Before You Go, You Broke Me First, I Like You, Lose Control, Austin, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart, and Birds Of A Feather.

Speaking of which, Birds Of A Feather still continues to surpass its own record for the longest run on the top 30 countdown, and one of the longest times spent in the top 10, although it seems like Shut Up And Dance still holds that record.

Taste is feeling twenty-twooooo as of this week.

Bad Dreams got a giant climb into the top 10. Luckily Teddy Swims' newer songs from volume two of ITEBT seem to be a great improvement over volume one.

Countdown action was minimal in the top 7, and Apt is still number one. Can we please have Pink Pony Club at number one for just one week, Hits 1? (If it does hit number one, that would mean that every Chappell song to make the countdown so far has reached the top spot, because her other two previously charting songs Good Luck Babe & Hot To Go both got to number one.)


That's all for now! Byeeeeeeeeee!
