#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

Portugal. The Man - Feel It Still (1 of 2 weeks at #1)

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes (+8) is starting to do great on here since it was doing amazing on the countdown! What a week for them!

Charlie Puth - The Way I Am (-10) is about to be on it's way out of the pop radio charts unfortunately. I really hope this song could move back up soon.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Mike Posner - Song About You: I heard this song a lot on Alt Nation. He gets two years off, and now he's back. Now, this song was just a step up from I Took A Pill In Ibiza. Mike's vocals in this one are nice, and I love the lyrics. Let's see how this one does here.

Travis Scott/Drake - Sicko Mode: This song is just a piece of trash. The production here is lazy and boring, Travis' vocals are awful, and the lyrical content is just garbage. I'll admit that Drake sounded okay in his verse. This better not do amazing on this countdown.

Halsey - Without Me: This is just not a good song. I pretty much already explained why this song wasn't good when it debuted the countdown last week. The production in this one was underwhelming and I do not like her vocals. Of course, I enjoyed a lot of her music back then. But this one was just not good. I really hope this song doesn't become a hit, because this is just not a good song. It's not awful, I do not hate it, I just don't like this song.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman: Oh come on. This better jump and it needs to make the Top 3 soon. Hopefully I'm right.

4. Selena Gomez - Back To You: So does this one. I HIGHLY doubt that it'll make the Top 3 next week. Let's see if it does.

3. Khalid/Normani - Love Lies: I'm still glad that it's still in the Top 3. But I don't want this song to drop. I would like it to go back to the top. Let's see if it does soon.

2. Post Malone - Better Now: OH NO!!!!!! IT'S ABOUT TO BE BACK AT THE TOP!!!!!!!!!! I really hope this song doesn't go back to the top.

1. 5 Seconds Of Summer - Youngblood: Holding the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. I really hope this song blocks Better Now from the top spot.
