Some important things to know; we will use Color Code B for Crown 100 overviews. This means that great songs will be green, good songs in blue, etc. I will also not do reviews for entrants like I do on the Hits 1 posts. I will just line them up on a wall and choose the best one. There will be a Top 20 Review too.

19. FANCY - Twice (#16)
20. Duncan Laurence - Arcade (Eurovision 2019 - Tel Aviv) (#92)
I believe I haven't expressed my thoughts on SOS by Avicii on here. This is definitely a great posthumous release. Aloe's vocal work stands out and the production is really charming and fitting. I look forward to Tim and another quick rest-in-peace to Avicii.
On the other hand, I'm glad that Arcade finally boomed up the chart 72 spots! This is a great song and I'm glad it finally rose up. Other than that and Dancing With A Stranger entering the Top 10, this is not exactly the ideal Top 20. I guess this is Crownnote though

- 67. Bazzi - Paradise (#82) [+15]
Like I said earlier, I'm really happy about Arcade jumping. Someone You Loved is definitely good and I'm nearly alone with that opinion. I think Blame It On Your Love is a pretty good song, not gonna lie. But I don't want this to be the next ME! where fans of both artists overrate it huge. I'll admit, I overrated ME! but it's a great song, okay? Not many big jumps this week. It looks like a lot but once compared to the big drops... oh boy.

Are you breathing? Yeah? Good. Because we have more to do. Before we get to that, I'm gonna briefly review the songs I never had the opportunity to express my opinion on.
- Sixteen is great and I'm infuriated that Close to Me became the hit and this didn't.
- Started and Sally Walker sound like nearly the same song so I'll just put it here; they suck.
- Gimme is a somewhat enjoyable song in my book.
- Homicide is okay. It's underwhelming in Logic and Eminem standards but I like it personally. I wouldn't change the station if it were to play.
- Cellophane is really just a forgettable song and a letdown for an EDM song.
- I really like Rag'n'Bone Man's vocals in Giant. It works well with the production.
- DId Harmony Hall and This Life really have to drop? They're well done songs and I'm not exactly in the best mood to see them dropping.
- Vossi Bop just isn't my favorite thing right now. The main issue is that it's forgettable.
- I never came around to Suge mostly because of the vocals and forgettable-ness. Songs like this are why I'm not a fan of a lot of modern rap.
- Monopoly and Bad Idea are nowhere as bad as 7 Rings but just aren't that good in the long run.
- Bon Bon Chocolate is honestly really annoying in general. I don't like the vocals mostly.
- Earth is a fun bop with a great message of preventing global warming. I really enjoy this and I know it won't make it to Hits 1 which I'm kinda shocked about because let's be honest; Hits 1 will play anything with Brendon Urie, Adam Levine, Shawn Mendes, Halsey, and a few others I'm missing.
- Handmade Heaven is a nice song with great vocals and good production. I would like to see this make Hits 1.
And of course, Hey Look Ma, I Made It shouldn't have dropped.

ReplyDelete"Homicide is okay. It's underwhelming in Logic and Eminem standards but I like it personally. I wouldn't change the station if it were to play."
ReplyDeleteIMO no it's not okay and I certainly know that Homicide is crappy bad sugar. I hate it and it is my least favorite.
"Bon Bon Chocolate is honestly really annoying in general. I don't like the vocals mostly."
ReplyDeleteI never heard of Bon Bon Chocolate before.
"Monopoly and Bad Idea are nowhere as bad as 7 Rings but just aren't that good in the long run."
ReplyDeleteFirst, agreed with you on MONOPOLY, and second I never heard of Bad Idea before.
