This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so pleased to see Steve Lacy - Bad Habit (+9) take the biggest jump into the Top 20 this week. What a week it has been for him! And I'm sure hoping that it should be in the Top 10 soon.

I'm fine with The Kid Laroi - Thousand Miles (-15) taking the biggest drop. It sure has been losing lots of airplay recently. And I'm sure it's going to be out of here within the next week or so.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Lost Frequencies/Calum Scott - Where Are You Now: The best debut this week. We have an EDM producer from Belgium making his debut on there this week. And I remember when Calum brought us Dancing On My Own which was a Hit Bound dropout back in 2017, and he doesn't really sound that good in it. And now, for this new song, it's definitely an amazing song. For my opinion, the production was so amazing, Calum's vocals were super amazing and he sounds better, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus and drop both sound so phenomenal. Hopefully this should do well on there.

Kane Brown - Grand: So I've actually found out that this song isn't actually a country song. But I'm still cool with it being here. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another amazing song and it's actually a step up from Be Like That. With my opinion on this song, the production was so amazing, Kane's vocals were super amazing, I'm definitely a huge fan of the lyrics, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see how far this one should get on there.

Lizzo - 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready): Since About Damn Time hit the top spot on there, we now have this song joining it in there. As far as the song goes, it's also another amazing song. But definitely not as good as About Damn Time, but it's still amazing. As for my opinion, the production was so amazing, Lizzo's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were super interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see how this one does on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God): It debuted the Top 5 this week. Wow, how did this song go in there so late? It sure has becoming more popular this year then it did in 1985. Now, hopefully it'll go to the Top 3 soon.

4. Harry Styles - As It Was: Yes, since we have another song from him in the Top 3, it has now been dropped out of there. But I do would like to see this song be in the Top 5 for a few more weeks longer at the very least, but let's see what happens next.

3. Lizzo - About Damn Time: It dropped out of the top spot. But it sure did had a phenomenal run on there. And I'm sure this is going to end up staying in the Top 3 for a little while longer.

2. Harry Styles - Late Night Talking: I'm still waiting for this song to be at the top spot. But hopefully very soon it should do it. We all know it's him, and he sure has been having a lot of #1 songs this decade.

1. Nicky Youre/Dazy - Sunroof: I'm so pleased to see this song at the top spot. Gosh, this sure has been an amazing start in his career. And now this is his first ever #1 song on there. This really deserves to be in there! Now, let's see how long it could hold the spot.
