Taylor Swift (1) Week Of May 15, 2021

It sure has been quite another super interesting week on here. We have another brand new #1 song again on here. Wow, how many times have we seen a new song hit the top spot on there? But again, it's always nice to see new songs on here instead of the same old songs over and over and over again. But other than that, I don't have anything else to say on here, so let's get to it!

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so pleased to see Doja Cat/SZA - Kiss Me More (+11) in the Top 10. Now, I'm really hoping that this should be in the Top 5 very soon.

Conan Gray - Overdrive (-15) had the biggest drop this week as it dropped all the way out of the Top 20 from the Top 10 and now it's officially on it's way out of here. I do have a feeling that this might leave the countdown very soon.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Coldplay - Higher Power: They have finally made their big return on the countdown this week. Now, the last time we heard from them was Something Just Like This with The Chainsmokers back in 2017, and that was actually one of my top songs of the year from which you all remembered. As far as this new song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. As for my opinion, the production was so amazing, Chris Martin's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were super interesting, and that chorus was so phenomenal. Hopefully it'll become a hit on there.

Saweetie/Doja Cat - Best Friend: This is just a decent song. There's really nothing here that's interesting to say about it. Although this song was actually a little bit of a step up from Tap In, but it's still decent. The production here actually sounded so great, but again I'm not really huge on Saweetie's vocals, but Doja's vocals were actually pretty good in her verse. But other than that, the lyrics are still very nicely-written and I think the chorus here was decent. But yeah, decent overall. Let's see how far this one gets on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Machine Gun Kelly/Halsey - Forget Me Too: Oh gosh... no! I don't really want this song to be out of the Top 5. But unfortunately I have a feeling that this might be out of here sometime very soon.

4. Olivia Rodrigo - Deja Vu: I actually didn't expect this song to leave the Top 3, but it did. But there's still a chance that this song should go to the top spot on there. Hopefully it'll be in there soon.

3. Ashe/Finneas - Till Forever Falls Apart: I'm super glad to see this song in the Top 3. Although I'm not sure if it's actually going to be at the top spot, but we're going to find out soon.

2. Dua Lipa - We're Good: It dropped out of the top spot. But it did had a nice run there. But I'm sure this is probably not going to be back in there. Maybe it might as well just hang around in the Top 5 for a bit longer.

1. Taylor Swift - Mr. Perfectly Fine: I'm super glad to see this song in the top spot. And this is now her first ever song with the new version to be in there. Now, let's see how long it could hold the spot.

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

1. Polo G - Rapstar

2. Bella Poarch - Build A Bitch (DEBUT)

3. Girl In Red - Serotonin

4. Alec Benjamin - The Way You Felt

5. Giveon - Heartbreak Anniversary

6. Annita - Girl From Rio

7. Cheat Codes/Tinashe - Lean On Me (DEBUT)

8. Mimi Webb - Good Without

9. Nessa Barrett/Jxdn - La Di Die (DEBUT)

10. CAL/Quinn XCII - In The Water

11. ILLENIUM/Iann Dior - First Time

12. Demi Lovato/Ariana Grande - Met Him Last Night

13. Kali Uchis - Telepatia

14. AJ Mitchell - Stop

15. Travis Scott/HVME - Goosebumps (Remix)

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

Bella Poarch - Build A Bitch: Wow, Hits 1 has really been picking up songs that were from TikTok lately. As far as the song goes, it's absolutely amazing. With my opinion, the production was super outstanding, Bella's vocals were so amazing, the lyrics were super interesting, and that chorus was absolutely amazing. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

Cheat Codes/Tinashe - Lean On Me: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. It's actually been a few years since we last heard from them. Though the last time we heard from them was Love Is Bigger Than Anything In It's Way with U2 back in 2018, and that was a song that I really enjoyed as you have remembered. And now, they're finally back. As far as the song goes, it's also an amazing song. With my opinion, the production here was so amazing, Tinashe's vocals were super amazing here, and that guy from Cheat Codes has been doing the vocals again here like he did in the chorus of No Promises. I think he sounds super amazing here. But other than that, the lyrics were definitely super nicely-written, the chorus was super amazing, and the drop was so  phenomenal. So yeah, this is an amazing song overall. Hopefully it'll be on the countdown soon.

Nessa Barrett/Jxdn - La Di Die: This is just another decent song. Although I was actually expecting to like this song, but it doesn't work. Although this is not a bad song, but it's not that great. I just think this is a decent song because I know it has Jxdn, who had a Hit Bound dropout called Angels And Demons, and that was a song that I hated back then. Anyway, now on to my opinion. The production here sounded decent, but Nessa's vocals still sound amazing here and I don't mind those lyrics and I think the chorus here was fine. But I do not like Jxdn's verse. He still sounds so bad here. But yeah, decent song overall. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.
