This Week's Mover and Shaker:

After that biggest drop last week, Olivia Rodrigo - So American (+8) took the biggest jump as it came back to the Top 10 this week. This totally deserves it! Now, hopefully it'll go to the Top 5 soon.

I'm fine with Taylor Swift/Post Malone - Fortnight (-14) taking the biggest drop all the way out of the Top 20 from the Top 10. But it has been losing some airplay on there throughout the week so I'm sure it's going to be out of here very soon.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe!: It debuted the Top 5 this week and this is now her first ever Top 5 song on there. I'm so pleased to see it in there. And I'm sure hoping that it should go to the Top 3 soon.

4. Post Malone/Morgan Wallen - I Had Some Help: Again I'm fine with this song still standing in the Top 5 this week. But I'm sure this song might be out of here very soon. It's definitely not hitting the top spot.

3. Dua Lipa - Illusion: Gosh, this song sure has been enjoying the Top 3. But again I'm sure this is going to be out of here very soon.

2. Hozier - Too Sweet: Yeah I'm sure it's going to remain at this spot for at least a couple more weeks or so because of how well it did at the top spot. Let's see how long it'll remain in there.

1. Sabrina Carpenter - Espresso: Holding the top spot for the 4th week in a row. Wow, this song really has been doing so amazing on there. It really is becoming a hit. Now, let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.

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

1. LISA - Rockstar

2. Dasha - Didn't I (DEBUT)

3. The Kid Laroi - Girls

4. Katy Perry - Woman's World (DEBUT)

5. Gracie Abrams/Taylor Swift - Us.

6. KATSEYE - Debut

7. Eminem/Jelly Roll - Somebody Save Me (DEBUT)

8. FlowerOvLove - Boys (DEBUT)

9. Isabel LaRosa - Favorite

10. Alex Warren - Carry You Home

11. Henry Moodie - Bad Emotions

12. Imagine Dragons - Nice To Meet You

13. CYRIL - Stumblin' In (DEBUT)

14. Kesha - Joyride

15. Lawrence - Whatcha Want

16. Bibi/Jackson Wang - Feeling Lucky

New Song/s on Hit Bound this week are:

Dasha - Didn't I: Since Austin hit the Top 10 on the countdown, we've now picked up a new single from her this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another phenomenal song and it's actually a step up from Austin. With my opinion on this one, the production was so phenomenal, Dasha's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were so nicely-written, and the chorus was so heavenly. Let's see if this should be on the countdown soon.

Katy Perry - Woman's World: She's now back to making some solo songs after 4 years and this was her first appearance on there since When I'm Gone with Alesso 2 years ago which was in my Top 10 Songs of 2022 in case you remember. As far as this new song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song. But definitely not as good as When I'm Gone, but it's still phenomenal. With my opinion on it, the production was so phenomenal, Katy's vocals were super incredible, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was so heavenly. Hopefully it'll be on the countdown soon.

Eminem/Jelly Roll - Somebody Save Me: So he just released his new album, and now we have another one of the songs from it on there. And one thing I've noticed about this song is that it actually samples Jelly Roll's own song Save Me, which I reviewed back when it debuted the AT40. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song and it's actually on the same level as Save Me. But definitely not as good as Houdini, but it's still phenomenal. With my opinion on this song, the production was so phenomenal, Eminem's rapping was super phenomenal, I'm definitely a huge fan of the lyrics, and Jelly Roll's vocals in the chorus and the samples are so heavenly. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.

FlowerOvLove - Boys: The best Hit Bound entrant this week. And I've noticed that her Spotify description only says "18", meaning I know nothing about her. But now she has her first ever appearance on there this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song. With my opinion, the production was so phenomenal, her vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were so epic, and the chorus was super heavenly. Though I'm not sure if it'll be on the countdown, but let's see if it does soon.

CYRIL - Stumblin' In: Wow, we have an Australian DJ making his first ever appearance on there? That's so interesting. I've also noticed that Mitch said that this was actually a remix of a song from 1979 and I really like how he modernized this. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. With my opinion, the production was so amazing, the vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were so interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see if it'll be on the countdown soon.
