This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so pleased about Olivia Rodrigo - Deja Vu (+15) in the Top 10. Wow, that was quick! Now, I'm sure this is going to be in the Top 5 within the next week or so. Hopefully it'll happen.

I'm fine with Billie Eilish - Therefore I Am (-6) taking the biggest drop. I'm definitely still giving credit to that. But I'm sure this is going to be out of here sometime soon.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Regard/Troye Sivan/Tate McRae - You: This is the only debut we have this week. As far as this song goes, it's absolutely an amazing song and it's definitely a step up from Ride It. The production was super outstanding, Regard's vocals were so much better, Troye's vocals were so amazing in his contribution, the lyrics were so nicely-written, and the chorus was super amazing. and the best part was Tate's part. I think she sounds so phenomenal here. So yeah, overall this is an amazing song. Let's see how far this goes.

Sara Kays - Remember That Night: I'm super pleased to see this song come back to the countdown. This really deserves it. Now hopefully it'll do amazing on there on it's second run.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Harry Styles - Treat People With Kindness: No! I thought that this was going to be at the top spot! But it's definitely going to be a shame if it didn't go to the top spot.

4. Dua Lipa - We're Good: Well, it dropped out of the Top 3. But I somehow would like it back in there, but maybe it should happen.

3. Machine Gun Kelly/Halsey - Forget Me Too: I'm super pleased to see it in the Top 3. Now, I'm sure hoping that this should be at the top spot and be his first #1 song on there. Hopefully this should happen.

2. Taylor Swift - Willow: It dropped out of the top spot. But it did had an outstanding run in there. But I'm sure this is probably going to stay in the Top 3 for a little while longer at the very least.

1. Conan Gray - Overdrive: I'm so pleased to see this song at the top spot. This is now his first ever #1 song on there, so I'm pleased about that. Now, let's see how long it could hold the spot.

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

1. Giveon - Heartbreak Anniversary

2. Rose - On The Ground (DEBUT)

3. Girl In Red - Serotonin (DEBUT)

15. Imagine Dragons - Follow You

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

Rose - On The Ground: Wow, we have a member of a K-Pop group making a solo single? That's so interesting! As far as the song goes, it's definitely an outstanding song. As for my opinion, the production was so outstanding, her vocals were super outstanding, the lyrics were very interesting, and that chorus was so amazing. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

Girl In Red - Serotonin: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. I've been hearing this song a lot on Alt Nation. It's such an amazing song. As for my opinion, the production was absolutely amazing, her vocals were so phenomenal, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was super amazing. Here's to hoping that this should be on the countdown soon.

CAL/Quinn XCII - In The Water: This is just another decent song. There's nothing here that's interesting to say about this song. Though the production here sounded awesome, but CAL's vocals don't sound good and Quinn XCII's verse doesn't sound good either. But other than that, the lyrics were fine and the chorus here was decent. So yeah, it's a decent song overall. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

ILLENIUM/Iann Dior - First Time: Oh gosh... not another Hit Bound re-entry! This seriously does not deserve to be back on there. This seriously needs to be back on the countdown. But let's see if it'll be back in there soon.
