#1 Song This Week One Year Ago:

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so glad to see Blanco Brown - The Git Up having the biggest jump this week in the Top 30. But what's also tied for the biggest jump this week is Ed Sheeran/Khalid - Beautiful People (+12), as it jumped all the way to the Top 20. I'm also glad to see that.

I did not expect Jonas Brothers - Cool (-18) to have the biggest drop this week. But I'm afraid this might be the end of it.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Sam Smith - How Do You Sleep?: Wow. This is like the second time this year that he had a song debut at #30. Dancing With A Stranger debuted at that spot back in February. But anyway. As far as the song goes, it is outstanding. But it's not as good as Dancing With A Stranger, but it is still outstanding. I really love the production here and Sam sounded outstanding. I stand for the chorus. Let's see how this one does.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Jonas Brothers - Sucker: I really don't have much to say about this one, but I'm glad that it's still in there.

4. Shawn Mendes - If I Can't Have You: Oh come on. I would like to see it be in the Top 3. Let's see if it happens next week.

3. Khalid - Talk: I am so glad that it's still in there. I somehow still want this song to remain in there, but let's see what happens.

2. Ed Sheeran/Justin Bieber - I Don't Care: It dropped out of the top spot. Although it did had a nice couple of weeks on here. Let's see if it'll be back here soon.

1. Billie Eilish - Bad Guy: I'm actually okay with this song at the top, because it's just a decent song. Let's see how long it could stay in there.

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

Miley Cyrus - Mother's Daughter

Zara Larsson - All The Time

Marshmello/Kane Brown - One Thing Right

And here are the songs they played as Extras/Optional Extras:
