I hope everyone's been having a great first week of November. And what I've noticed is that next Friday is Friday The 13th. I hope there's no bad stuff happening at this time. Anyway.

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm super glad to see Harry Styles - Golden (+6) taking the biggest jump this week. Now, I'm sure this is going to be in the Top 10 next week.

I'm not too thrilled about Tate McRae - You Broke Me First (-11) having the biggest drop this week all the way out of the Top 15 from the Top 10. But hopefully it'll move back up soon.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Role Model - Going Out: I really have no idea why we have this song, but this song is so horrible. There's really nothing here that's good about this song. Now, on to my opinion. The production here is so bad, his voice is so bland and generic, and I really hate that chorus. I don't know why this song debuted straight on there and not on Hit Bound. This does not deserve to be in there at all! I'm sure hoping that this should do horrible on here, because this is not a great song for me. NEXT!

Jason Derulo - Take You Dancing: He replaces himself on the countdown this week. Though It's sad to see Savage Love go as it's currently doing so well on the pop radio charts. Now, this is absolutely an outstanding song and it's definitely a step up from Savage Love. For my opinion, the production was super outstanding, Jason's vocals shine throughout the entire song, those lyrics are very nicely-written, and the chorus was super amazing. Let's see how far this one gets.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. AJR - Bang!: I'm so pleased to see this song back in the Top 5. Now, let's see if it'll be back in the Top 3 soon. But I'm not sure if it's actually going to happen.

4. 5 Seconds Of Summer - Wildflower: It dropped out of the Top 3. I was actually expecting this song to be at the top spot, but it's probably not going to happen.

3. Shawn Mendes - Wonder: I'm so glad to see this song debuting the Top 3 this week. Now, I'm sure hoping that this should be in the top spot soon.

2. 24kgoldn/Iann Dior - Mood: I'm fine with this song still standing at this spot. But yeah, I don't think it's ever going to be at the top spot.

1. Harry Styles - Falling: Holding the top spot for the 5th week in a row. Wow, what has this song been doing in there? It sure has been doing super amazing on there. Now, let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.

Now, let's review this week's Hit Bound:

1. MAX/Suga - Blueberry Eyes (DEBUT)

2. Internet Money/Gunna/Don Toliver/Nav - Lemonade

3. Shaylen - Goodbye (DEBUT)

4. Sigala/James Arthur - Lasting Lover (DEBUT)

5. G-Eazy/Blackbear - Hate The Way

6. Rosie - Never The 1 (DEBUT)

7. AJR - Bummerland

8. Drake/Lil Durk - Laugh Now Cry Later

9. Royal & The Serpent - Overwhelmed

10. Ritt Momney - Put Your Records On

11. Why Don't We - Fallin'

12. Malia Civetz - Broke Boy

13. Justin Bieber/Benny Blanco - Lonely

14. Travis Scott/Young Thug/M.I.A. - Franchise

15. Zara Larsson - WOW (RE-ENTRY)

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

MAX/Suga - Blueberry Eyes: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. This is absolutely an amazing song and it's definitely a huge step up from Love Me Less. Now, for my opinion, the production here was super amazing, MAX's vocals were so phenomenal, Suga's vocals were so heavenly in his contribution, and I really stand for the chorus. I'm sure hoping that this should be on the countdown soon.

Shaylen - Goodbye: This is definitely an outstanding song. I actually didn't expect her to make her debut on Hits 1, but now here she is on there. Now, on to the song. The production here is so outstanding, Shaylen's vocals were absolutely amazing, the lyrics here are so interesting, and I fell in love with that chorus. Though I'm not sure if it's going to debut the countdown, but let's see if it'll be on there soon.

Sigala/James Arthur - Lasting Lover: This is just a decent song. There's nothing really interesting to say about this song. Though the production here sounded decent, but James's vocals were actually outstanding here and I really love those lyrics. I think they're still so nicely-written. Though the chorus in this one sounded decent and the drop sounded fine. So yeah, it's decent overall. Let's see if this should be on the countdown soon.

Rosie - Never The 1: This is also another decent song. Also, I feel like this song might become the next One To Watch which I don't think I want this to happen because it's just not that great. Now, on to the song. The production here sounded decent, Rosie's vocals were fine, the chorus sounded decent, but the lyrics here are super interesting. But this is still a decent song. Let's see if this should be on the countdown soon.

Zara Larsson - WOW: I'm super glad to see this song be back on Hit Bound this week. Now, I'm sure hoping that this song should have another chance to be on the countdown soon.
