This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm fine with Post Malone/Doja Cat - I Like You (A Happier Song) (+7) taking the biggest jump into the Top 10 this week. I'll still give credit to it. Now, let's see if it'll be in the Top 5 soon.

I'm not too thrilled to see Calvin Harris/Dua Lipa/Young Thug - Potion (-13) take the biggest drop all the way out of the Top 20 from the Top 10. That is so not cool! But I do have a feeling that it might be out of here soon.

New Song/s on the countdown this week are:

Ellie Goulding/Big Sean - Easy Lover: She has now made her return on the countdown this week after a few years off of making new music. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song and it's definitely a step up from Hate Me. With my opinion, the production was so phenomenal, Ellie's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were super nicely-written, the chorus was so heavenly, and Big Sean's rapping was so phenomenal in his verse. Let's see how far this one goes.

Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God): The song was actually released in 1985, which was actually so interesting. I know this song is way too old to be on there, but somehow it was currently getting popular. Though I do enjoy 80's music. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. For my opinion on this one, the production was so amazing, Kate's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were super interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see how this one does on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Ava Max  - Maybe You're The Problem: It debuted the Top 5 this week. Gosh, I feel like she's a no stranger to the Top 5 on there this week because I know she has been having a lot of Top 5 songs on there. Now, let's see if it'll be in the Top 3 soon.

4. Shawn Mendes - When You're Gone: I'm glad to see this song move back up. And I'm sure hoping that this should be in the Top 3 very soon. Let's see if it'll happen.

3. Lizzo - About Damn Time: Yes, I'm sure this song is definitely not going to be at the top spot on there. But I do have a feeling that this song is going to officially be on it's way out of here.

2. Harry Styles - Late Night Talking: It's almost at the top spot. And I'm sure it's going to be in there within the next week or so. Hopefully I'm right.

1. Nicky Youre/Dazy - Sunroof: Holding the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. I'm pleased that it's still in there, although I do feel like another song might take over this spot next week, but let's see if it'll stay in there or not.

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

Billie Eilish - The 30th: So she has dropped 2 new songs, one is called TV, and the other is this one. As far as this one goes, it's actually decent. There's nothing much here that's interesting to say about it. With my opinion, the production and guitar both sounded decent, Billie's vocals were okay but not the best, and the chorus was decent. But the lyrics were still very interesting. But this is a decent acoustic ballad overall. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

Yung Gravy - Betty (Get Money): I'm fine with this song coming back on there. I actually didn't expect it to come back in there. Now, let's see if this should have another chance to be on the countdown soon.

Russ/Ed Sheeran - Are You Entertained: We have now picked up a new song from him after Handsomer dropped out of here a few months ago. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song and it's actually a step up from Handsomer. With my opinion, the production was so fun, both Russ and Ed sound super amazing and they really have great chemistry, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and I really enjoyed the chorus. Hopefully it'll be on the countdown since Handsomer didn't do it.

Kane Brown - Grand: So I found out that this song isn't actually a country song. But that's okay, I'm cool with it here. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another amazing song and it's definitely a step up from Be Like That. With my opinion on this song, the production was so amazing, Kane's vocals were super amazing, I'm definitely a huge fan of the lyrics, and the chorus was so phenomenal. I'm sure hoping that this should make the countdown soon.

Panic! At The Disco - Middle Of A Breakup: This is absolutely another phenomenal song. But definitely not as good as Viva Las Vengeance, but it's still phenomenal. As for my opinion on this one, the production was super amazing, Brendon's vocals were so phenomenal, the lyrics were super nicely-written, and the chorus was super phenomenal. So yeah, this is phenomenal overall. Here's to hoping that it will be on the countdown soon.

Fletcher - Becky's So Hot: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. This is absolutely another phenomenal song and it's actually a step up from Bitter. With my opinion on this song, the production was so phenomenal, her vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were super interesting, and the chorus was so heavenly and I really fell in love with it. But yeah, overall this is a phenomenal song for me to listen to. Hopefully it'll be on the countdown soon.

Tomorrow X Together/Iann Dior - Valley Of Lies: I remember when they had their song Magic on the AT40 last year, and that was a song that I enjoyed back then. And now, as for this new song, it's definitely another amazing song and it's actually a step up from Magic. For my opinion on this song, the production was so amazing, the guy from Tomorrow X Together's vocals were super amazing, Iann's vocals were so phenomenal in his contribution, the lyrics were so interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.
