#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

Taylor Swift - Look What You Made Me Do (1st and only week at #1)

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Silk City/Dua Lipa - Electricity, Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes and Bryce Vine - Drew Barrymore (+3) were all tied for the biggest rise iof the week this week. I'm glad they're all gaining lots of airplay on pop radio charts.
Cardi B./Bad Bunny/J. Balvin - I Like It (-3) finally had the biggest fall of the week this week! I was so pleased to see that. I really had it with Cardi B.'s music. Now, this needs to keep dropping.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Shawn Mendes/Zedd - Lost In Japan: It's such an awesome EDM song. I pretty much already explained why when it debuted the countdown a few weeks ago. This song was just a step up from Nervous. It does sound similar to Stay and The Middle, mainly because they use the same sound in the chorus. Although Shawn's vocals aren't annoying like in The Middle and Happy Now, they're actually very good. The production on this one is so much better than the previous two. Let's see how this one does here.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman: It debuted the Top 5 this week. I'm so glad to see that. Now, back to my opinion. This is an amazing song. Though it isn't as good as No Tears Left To Cry or Breathin', but it's still amazing. She really has a cool voice in this one and I love the chorus. Let's see if that'll go to #1 soon.
4. Selena Gomez - Back To You: Looks like it's about to be in the Top 3. Let's see if it does next week.
3. Post Malone - Better Now: Oh come on. WHY IS IT STILL IN THE TOP 3?????!!!!! This needs to be out of here, NOW!!!!!!!!!!
2. Khalid/Normani - Love Lies: I somehow still want it to be back at the top. I'm still okay with this song holding that spot, but I'll still be pleased if this song goes back to the top.
1. 5 Seconds Of Summer - Youngblood: Holding the top spot for the 2nd week in a row. I'm glad it's still at the top. Let's see if it can hold that spot even more.

Now, here are the songs they played for Breakouts/On The Verge:

Halsey - Without Me
Travis Scott/Drake - Sicko Mode
Mike Posner - Song About You
