This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so glad to see Khalid - Talk (+11) in the Top 10. The song has grown on me this past week. Let's see if it'll be in the Top 5 soon.

I'm not happy to see Ciara - Thinkin Bout You (-9) with the biggest drop this week as it's out of the Top 20. I really want it to be back in there.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down: This is such an outstanding song. But it's not as good as ME!, but still, it is outstanding. I really love that production and Taylor's vocals sounded outstanding. That chorus in this one is definitely what I stand for. Let's see if it'll do amazing on here.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Taylor Swift/Brendon Urie - ME!: I really don't want this song to drop. I really want it to be back in the Top 3. Let's see if I'm right.

4. Jonas Brothers - Sucker: It dropped out of the top spot. Though I'm glad that it had a strongly heaven run at the top as it broke the record for most weeks at #1.

3. The Chainsmokers/5 Seconds Of Summer - Who Do You Love: Good. It's back in the Top 3. Now, I really want it to be at the top. Let's see if it does soon.

2. Halsey - Nightmare: It debuted the Top 5 this week and I was so pleased to see that. This is definitely better than Without Me. Now, back to my opinion. The production sounded amazing, Halsey's vocals sounded heaven, and wow. Her screaming in the chorus sounded marvelous. Let's see if it'll be her 3rd #1 song on here.

1. Shawn Mendes - If I Can't Have You: I'm so pleased to see it at the top. He really has a lot of #1 songs on here. Let's see how long it can stay in there.

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

I really love the production and the beat in this one and Blanco's vocals sounded amazing. The chorus was definitely fun. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

SHAED - Trampoline: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. I heard this song a lot on Alt Nation. This is such a heaven song. The instrumentation sounded heaven, Chelsea's vocals shine pretty much throughout the whole song, and that chorus sounded absolutely heaven. This is going to be in my Top 5 songs of this year. This better be on the countdown soon.
