THIS WEEK'S ENTRANTS
Here are our entrants this week.
- You Need To Calm Down by Taylor Swift (#17)
Yeah. That's it. You know, I was thinking Mama's House would debut given that it streamed four times this week. So I'd assume it debuts next week because it's off HitBound this week and you know what happened with Bury A Friend and So Close.
- We're starting with You Need To Calm Down. This is the second single off of Taylor's upcoming album Lover. While I definitely love ME!, I'm not exactly feeling this. I love the message and what the song is going for about equal homosexual treatment and the video is cool but nothing else stands out. Her vocals aren't great and the production is mediocre. The chorus is easily the best part of the song excluding the lyrics but even that isn't that good. So this didn't live up to my expectations and I thought this could've been so much better but Taylor missed the boat. :/

YOU NEED TO BLURB DOWN
- We finally have a new #1 and it's my favorite on the countdown as of now! If I Can't Have You was destined to get the #1 spot at some point and I'm very happy it got here even thought it took a bit. Congratulations to Shawn Mendes and I was tired of looking up Jonas Brothers pictures every Saturday!
- So we let Talk rise into the Top 10 for some ungodly reason. Khalid is an R&B artist but this is generic and bland pop, not R&B like Better. Better was a fun and great song that didn't gain much success here on Hits 1 but then Talk is a lifeless and generic song that is somehow his highest peaking song on Billboard and now here if I recall correctly. If only 1-800-273-8255 with Logic peaked higher.
- If We Have Each Other is now a Top 20 hit. I still think this is better than Let Me Down Slowly and it deserves more success so I'm pretty happy about this. It's a good and sweet song.
- Looks like Dancing's Not A Crime will sadly be a flop. It's irritating because it's one of the best songs on Pray For The Wicked but at the same time it makes sense because the tour finished a few weeks ago. Hey Look Ma, I Made It and High Hopes (why is the latter still here) have been dropping too. So it seems like Panic! is pretty much done for the next few years.
- Remember Thinkin Bout You's sudden increase in momentum last week? Seems like that never happened. It dropped straight out of the Top 20 and to be honest, I'm fine with it because it's already on it's way out. There's better that we can have in the Top 20 anyway.
- It was this week one year ago that High Hopes debuted the countdown and it's still here, meaning this is its one year anniversary! I would like to congratulate Panic! for their first one year song on the countdown and I'm fairly happy for them.
- Paradise is on its way out now. I can't say I'm surprised given that it flopped everywhere else anyway.
- As far as our lone exit goes, I'm surprised Out of Love lasted this long. But now it's out and it was nothing more than a space filler so no complaining there.
