#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

Post Malone/Ty Dolla $ign - Psycho (4th and final week at #1)

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Katy Perry - Never Really Over is finally gaining lots of airplay. But what's also tied for the biggest jump this week is Billie Eilish - Bad Guy (+4). I'm actually okay with that.

I'm not too thrilled about the biggest drop out of the Top 10 this week from Taylor Swift/Brendon Urie - ME! (-5). This seriously needs to move back up.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Mark Ronson/Camila Cabello - Find U Again: The best debut this week. This is definitely Mark's best song. I know Camila was my favorite Fifth Harmony member, because she has a heaven voice. Now, on to my opinion. I pretty much already explained why last month. The production sounded amazing, Camila's vocals sounded heaven, the lyrics are fantastic, and that chorus sounded heaven. Let's see if this one does amazing on here.

Shawn Mendes/Camila Cabello - Senorita: What an amazing song. This is definitely a step up from If I Can't Have You. Now, the last time we heard this collaboration was all the way back a few years ago with I Know What You Did Last Summer, which I enjoyed. Now, on to my opinion. I really love the Latin vibe and the production, Shawn's vocals sounded amazing, Camila's vocals sounded heaven in her contribution, and that chorus is what I enjoyed. Let's see if this one does amazing on here.

Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down: This was such an outstanding song. Though it's not as good as ME!, but it is still outstanding. I've already explained why this song was outstanding in my other posts. The production in this one sounded awesome, Taylor's vocals sounded outstanding, I really love those lyrics, and I stand for the chorus. Let's see if this should do amazing on this countdown.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Lil Nas X/Billy Ray Cyrus - Old Town Road: Thank god it's finally dropping. Now, this needs to be out of here next week. Let's see if it does.

4. Ed Sheeran/Justin Bieber - I Don't Care: It debuted the Top 5 this week. I'm so glad to see that. This was such an amazing song. Now, back to my opinion. The production in this one sounded remarkable, both Ed and Justin sounded amazing, and I really love that chorus. Now, let's see if this should be at the top soon.

3. Post Malone - Wow.: It dropped out of the top spot. I'm so pleased that it's out of here. It only spent 1 week at the top, which was pleasing. Now, this better not be back at the top and it needs to keep dropping.

2. Jonas Brothers - Sucker: I don't have much to say about this one, but I somehow want this song to stay in the Top 3 for a little while longer. Let's see how long it can still be in here.

1. Khalid - Talk: I'm so pleased to see this song at the top. This was such an amazing song. Now, let's see how long it can hold the spot.
