#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

Ed Sheeran/Beyoncé - Perfect (2nd and final week at #1)

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Post Malone - Wow. is unfortunately moving up. I'm not too thrilled about that. But what's tied for the biggest jump this week is DJ Snake/Selena Gomez/Ozuna/Cardi B. - Taki Taki, which I'm okay with, and Silk City/Dua Lipa - Electricity, which I'm so pleased about.
I did not expect Camila Cabello - Consequences (-20) to drop all the way out of the Top 30 from the Top 20. She has been a very talented singer and I love every song from her (except Havana).

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Ariana Grande - 7 Rings: I pretty much already explained why this song was amazing when it debuted Hit Bound last week. This is so much better than Thank U, Next. Everything on this song is so much better. I really hope this song does great on here.

Gesaffelstein/The Weeknd - Lost In The Fire: This was just an amazing EDM song. I have already explained why this song was amazing when it debuted Hit Bound a few weeks ago. Everything on this song was amazing. The production was amazing, the vocals are amazing, the lyrics are amazing, the chorus was amazing, and the drop was amazing. I really hope this one does amazing on this countdown.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Ariana Grande - Breathin’: No. Please don’t let this song be out of the Top 5. Though it’s going to be pretty bad if it does next week.
4. Benny Blanco/Halsey/Khalid - Eastside: It’s almost in the Top 3. I really hope this song makes it there next week.
3. Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes: Can we please let this song stay in the Top 3? I don’t want this song to be out of here.
2. Ariana Grande - Thank U, Next: It dropped out of the top spot. Whew. I’m glad it’s out of here. Now this song needs to be out of the Top 3.
1. Halsey - Without Me: As to say, I’m not too thrilled about this song at the top. I really hope this song gets out of here soon.

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

Madison Beer/Offset - Hurts Like Hell
