#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

Dua Lipa - New Rules (3 of 4 weeks at #1)

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

For the second week in a row, Sam Smith/Normani Kordei - Dancing With A Stranger (+10) had the biggest jump this week. This song has been going strong on the pop radio charts.

Unfortunately, Bazzi/Camila Cabello - Beautiful (Remix) (-12) is about to lose airplay. I'm not too thrilled about this song having the biggest drop this week. Though it still did pretty good on the pop radio charts, so that's still good.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Ariana Grande - Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored: This song was just decent. There's nothing interesting about this song. Ariana's vocals sounded awesome in this one, but I'm not huge on the production. However, my thoughts would change in a couple of more listens. And if my thoughts do change, it'll either change to green or red. I really hope it's green.

Madison Beer/Offset - Hurts Like Hell: This song was just mediocre. I've already explained why this song was mediocre when it debuted Hit Bound a few weeks ago. The production is okay, but I don't think Madison's vocals sound good. Offset's verse in this one was horrible. So yeah. It's just mediocre. This is definitely a step down from Home With You. I'll be okay if this one does great on here.

FLETCHER - Undrunk: This is the only great debut this week. This song has been trending on the YouTube 15 a month ago. Now, this song was just an amazing song. The production is amazing, her vocals shine pretty much throughout the whole song, the lyrics are outstanding, and that chorus sounded amazing. Let's see if it'll do amazing on here.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Post Malone/Swae Lee - Sunflower: Can we seriously get this song out of the Top 5? I seriously had enough of Post Malone's music.

4. Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes: Wow. This song has been going strong in the Top 5 here. That was definitely heaven.

3. Ariana Grande - Thank U, Next: Great. It's almost out of the Top 3. Now this song needs to be out of here next week. I had it with this song.

2. Benny Blanco/Halsey/Khalid - Eastside: It's almost at the top spot. Now, this song needs to be at the top next week.

1. Halsey - Without Me: Holding the top spot for the 4th week in a row. This seriously needs to be out of the top next week. We seriously need a better song at the top.
