This Week's Mover and Shaker:

George Ezra - Shotgun (+11) has finally been gaining lots of airplay on the pop radio charts. I'm hoping it should move up even more.

Dennis Lloyd - Nevermind (-18) unfortunately dropped all the way to the Bottom 5 from the Top 30. Not cool, voters. At least it's still doing good on the Alt-8. Let's see if it'll make it's comeback.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Sabrina Carpenter - Almost Love: It reminds me of In Real Life - Tattoo (How 'Bout You) because of the beginning. This song is by far Sabrina's best song. It's just a step up from Why. Sabrina has an amazing voice in this one, the verses are amazing, the lyrics are amazing, the chorus was amazing, everything on this song is amazing. It better do amazing on this countdown.

AJR - Burn The House Down: I heard this song a lot on Alt Nation. This song is also amazing. The production here is amazing, the vocals are amazing, the horns are amazing, the lyrics are amazing, the chorus was amazing, everything is AMAZING!!!!!! This needs to do amazing on this countdown.

LSD - Thunderclouds: They have put their first song on the countdown this week. Though this song isn't as good as Genius, but it's still great. The production is so amazing, both Labrinth and Sia sounded awesome, and I really love Diplo's drop in the chorus. Hopefully this does great on here.

Clean Bandit/Demi Lovato - Solo: The best countdown debut of the week. It's such a fantastic song. The production is fantastic, Demi's vocals are fantastic, the lyrics are fantastic, the chorus was fantastic, the drop was fantastic, everything on this song is fantastic. This needs to do fantastic on this countdown.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Backstreet Boys - Don't Go Breaking My Heart: It debuted the Top 5 this week. It's nice to see this group back here. Now, on to my opinion. The instrumentation in this one was fantastic, the vocals are amazing, and I fell in love with the chorus. I was so pleased to see it debut on here and I'm hoping it should go to #1 soon.

4. Fall Out Boy - The Last Of The Real Ones: I'm still waiting for it to go back in the Top 3. Let's see if it does soon.

3. Khalid/Normani - Love Lies: I still want this song to go to #1 here. I hope it does next week.

2. 5 Seconds Of Summer - Youngblood: It dropped out of the top spot. I still prefer another song to go to #1 than this. But I'll still be happy if it's back at the top.

1. Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes: I was so pleased to see this song back at the top spot. This is going to be in my Top 10 songs of the year. Let's see how long it can hold the spot.

Silk City/Dua Lipa - Electricity: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. I really love the production, Dua's vocals shine throughout the whole song, and I love the drop in the chorus. This needs to make the countdown soon.
