This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm glad to see Conan Gray - Heather and Harry Styles - Falling (+8) being tied for the biggest jump this week. What a week for them!

I'm not too thrilled about Taylor Swift - Cardigan (-8) having the biggest drop this week. This does not deserve that! But hopefully it'll be back in the Top 20 very soon.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

All Time Low/Blackbear - Monsters: The best countdown debut this week. I heard this song a lot on Alt Nation. This is definitely an extremely heavenly song and it's an automatic huge step up from Some Kind Of Disaster. It's definitely their best song ever. The production sounded extremely heavenly, the vocals were extremely heavenly, Blackbear's vocals were definitely way better than his other songs in his verse, the chorus was extremely heavenly, everything on this song was extremely heavenly. But yeah, rock should be better for Blackbear, because he sound so much better in this type of music. This is definitely going to end up being my #1 song of the year. Hopefully this one does better on here than the Alt-18.

Ashe - Save Myself: Because of how Moral Of The Story was doing on there, this song now debuts the countdown. Now, this is definitely an amazing song. Though not as good as Moral Of The Story, but it's still amazing. The production here sounded so amazing, Ashe's vocals were so phenomenal, those lyrics are very nicely-written, and that chorus was absolutely amazing. Hopefully this one does amazing on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Gabby Barrett/Charlie Puth - I Hope: No, I don't really want this song to be out of the Top 5. I sure would like to see it back in the Top 3, but I don't think it's going to happen.

4. Jawsh 685/Jason Derulo - Savage Love: I'm glad to see this song move back up. Although I'm sure this might be in the Top 3 sometime soon.

3. AJR - Bang!: It debuted the Top 5 this week all the way to the Top 3. And this was actually their first Top 3 song and Top 5 song on there. Now, let's see if it'll be at the top spot soon.

2. Ava Max - Kings & Queens: I'm still waiting for this song to be at the top spot. But I'm sure hoping that it will be in there next week.

1. Ashe/Niall Horan - Moral Of The Story: Holding the top spot for the 5th week in a row. Gosh, this song has really been doing amazing on there. But again I do prefer another song for the top spot next week, but let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.

Now, let's review this week's Hit Bound:

1. Ashe - Save Myself*

2. Juice WRLD - Wishing Well

3. Claire Rosinkranz - Backyard Boy

4. BTS - Dynamite

5. Machine Gun Kelly/Blackbear - My Ex's Best Friend

6. Marshmello/Demi Lovato - OK Not To Be OK

7. Blu DeTiger - Figure It Out

8. Dixie D'Amelio/Blackbear/Lil Mosey - Be Happy

9. Niall Horan - Black And White

10. Zara Larsson - WOW

11. Curtis Waters/Harm Franklin - Stunnin'

13. Ava Max - Naked (DEBUT)

14. Royal & The Serpent - Overwhelmed (DEBUT)

15. Saweetie - My Type

16. Avenue Beat - F2020

* = Pulled a Sunday Best

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

Morgan Wallen - 7 Summers: Why would we let this song leave the countdown and then be back on there? I'm not too thrilled to see it back on there. But hopefully it'll be back on the countdown soon.

Ava Max - Naked: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. She actually guest-hosted Hit Bound this week. I thought she did an amazing job on that. And for that, this song now debuts on there since Kings & Queens is doing so great on the countdown. Now, this is definitely a heavenly song. But not as good as Kings & Queens, but it's still heavenly. The production sounded super phenomenal, Ava's vocals were pretty heavenly, and that chorus was super heavenly. I'm sure this'll debut the countdown when Kings & Queens hit #1 soon. Hopefully it'll happen.

Royal & The Serpent - Overwhelmed: I'm not sure what to say about this song, but it's actually a decent song. There's nothing really that's interesting to say here. Though the vocals sounded fine, but the production is a little underwhelming. Though the chorus in this one sounded okay. So yeah, it's just a decent song overall. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.
