This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm so pleased to see Twenty One Pilots - The Craving (+9) take the biggest jump to the Top 30. What an amazing week for them! Now, let's see if it'll go to the Top 20 soon.

Jelly Roll/Lainey Wilson - Save Me (-9) sure has been losing airplay on there recently. And I'm sure this is going to be out of here very soon.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Teddy Swims - The Door: Since Lose Control hit the top spot on there, we now have this song joining it this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song and it's actually a step up from Lose Control. With my opinion, the production was so phenomenal, Teddy's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was so heavenly. Hopefully this should become a hit on there.

Sabrina Carpenter - Please Please Please: The best debut this week. We now have this song debuting on there since Espresso hit the Top 5 on there. As far as this new song goes, it's definitely another phenomenal song. But definitely not as good as Espresso, but it's still phenomenal. With my opinion on this one, the production was so phenomenal, Sabrina's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were super interesting, and the chorus was so heavenly. Let's see how this one does on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Taylor Swift/Post Malone - Fortnight: I'm fine with this song still standing at this spot. But I'm sure this might move up and get to the Top 3 very soon. But let's see what happens next.

4. SZA - Saturn: I'm so pleased that it's still in the Top 5. Gosh, this song sure has been doing so amazing on there recently. Though I'd like it to spend at least one more week or so on there and then be out of here.

3. Benson Boone - Beautiful Things: Gosh, how on Earth has this song been doing in the Top 3? It really must been enjoying it. But I'm sure this is going to be out of here within the next week or so.

2. Sabrina Carpenter - Espresso: I'm still waiting for this song to get to the top spot. But hopefully next week it should be in there.

1. Hozier - Too Sweet: Holding the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. Again I'm super pleased about this song still being at the top spot, but again I'd like another song to be in there next week, but let's see if it'll stay in there or not.
