This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so pleased to see Kane Brown - Grand (+11) take the biggest jump into the Top 20. It really deserves to take it! Now, hopefully this should go to the Top 10 soon.

Joji - Glimpse Of Us (-10) totally deserves to take the biggest drop! I'm super pleased to see it do that. Although I do know this song might end up in my Bottom 10 Songs of the year just letting you know. And I'm sure hoping that it should be out of here within the next week or so, because I seriously had enough of this song.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Louis Tomlinson - Bigger Than Me: He has finally made his return on there after 2 years off of making new music. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. Although this song wasn't as good as We Made It, but it's actually a step up from Don't Let It Break Your Heart. As for my opinion, the production was so amazing, Louis's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were so interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal and marvelous. Let's see how far this one should get on there.

Ava Max - Million Dollar Baby: The best countdown debut this week. This song has now joined Maybe You're The Problem on there since it's about to be on it's way out of here. And this was actually one of the songs that was off of her upcoming album that has unfortunately been delayed until January, but it's still okay. As for this new song, it's definitely another heavenly song and it's actually a step up from Maybe You're The Problem. With my opinion on this song, the production was super phenomenal, Ava's vocals were pretty heavenly like always, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a humongous fan of, and the chorus was super heavenly. Hopefully this should become a hit on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Lizzo - 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready): It debuted the Top 5 this week. I'm so pleased to see this song in there. This is now her second straight Top 5 song on there which was amazing. Now, let's see if it'll be in the Top 3 soon.

4. Nicky Youre/Dazy - Sunroof: It dropped out of the Top 3, and now it's about to be on it's way out of here. But it really did had a phenomenal run in there.

3. Marshmello/Khalid - Numb: I'm good with this song still in the Top 3, but like what I said I don't think it's ever going to hit the top spot. But maybe a couple more weeks in the Top 3 and then I'm sure it'll start being on it's way out of here.

2. Charlie Puth/Jung Kook - Left And Right: It's almost at the top spot! And I'm sure that it's going to be in there within the next week or so. Hopefully it'll be in there soon.

1. Harry Styles - Late Night Talking: Holding the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. I'm so pleased that this song is still in there, but I'm sure another song might replace it next week, but let's see if it'll stay in there or not.

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

1. Demi Lovato - 29

2. DJ Khaled/Drake/Lil Baby - Staying Alive (RE-ENTRY)

3. Ashe - Emotional

4. David Guetta/Bebe Rexha - I'm Good (Blue) (DEBUT)

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

DJ Khaled/Drake/Lil Baby - Staying Alive: I'm so pleased to see this song come back on there. Now, can we please let this song have another chance to be on the countdown?

David Guetta/Bebe Rexha - I'm Good (Blue): The best Hit Bound entrant this week. In fact, the song actually samples Eiffel 65's hit single Blue (Da Ba Dee), which was definitely the best thing about this song. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an extremely heavenly EDM song and it's definitely David's best song that I've ever heard. It's definitely a huge step up from all of his other songs. With my opinion, the production was extremely heavenly, Bebe's vocals were extremely heavenly, the lyrics were extremely heavenly, the chorus and drop both sound extremely heavenly, everything here was extremely heavenly. This is definitely going to end up as my #1 song of the year when it makes the countdown. I'm sure hoping that it will soon.

David Morris - Dutton Ranch Freestyle: So this is actually a country-rap song, which was actually so interesting. This is kinda like when we had Old Town Road and The Git Up back in 2019, and those two were a mix of country and trap as well. And now, for this new song, it's definitely a phenomenal song. With my opinion on this song, the production and trap beat both sound super amazing, David's vocals were so phenomenal especially in his rapping, the lyrics were super nicely-written, and the chorus was super phenomenal. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

Charlie Puth - Smells Like Me: Since Left And Right is currently doing so well on the countdown, this song has now made it's debut on there. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another amazing song. But definitely not as good as Left And Right, but it's still amazing. For my opinion, the production was so amazing, Charlie's vocals were super amazing, those lyrics were so marvelous, and the chorus was so phenomenal. And I'm sure this is going to debut the countdown when Left And Right hits #1. Let's see if it'll happen soon.

Lewis Capaldi - Forget Me: It's actually been a while since he last made it on there. As far as the song goes, it's also another amazing song. But definitely not as good as Before You Go, but it's still amazing. With my opinion on this one, the production was super outstanding, Lewis's vocals were so amazing, those lyrics were super nice, and the chorus was super amazing. Hopefully this should make the countdown soon.

Willow - Curious / Furious: This is such another amazing song. Although this song wasn't as good as Meet Me At Our Spot, but this is still amazing. With my opinion on this song, the production was so amazing, Willow's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were so interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. But yeah, this is such an amazing song overall for me to listen to. Though I'm not sure if it's actually going to be on the countdown, but let's see if it'll do it soon.

Fletcher - Sting: We have now picked up a new single from her after Becky's So Hot left the countdown last week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another phenomenal song and it's actually a step up from Becky's So Hot. With my opinion, the production was so phenomenal, her vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was so heavenly. Hopefully this should make the countdown soon.
