This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Chappell Roan - Hot To Go! really has been gaining lots of airplay throughout the week. I'm super pleased to see that. And what's also tied for the biggest jump was Tate McRae - It's Ok I'm Ok (+6), and I'm also pleased to see it do that.

Ariana Grande - The Boy Is Mine (-15) took a huge biggest drop this week since it has been losing lots of airplay recently. I actually expected it to happen and I know it's going to be out of here very soon.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Charli XCX - Apple: We've now picked up a new single off of Brat on there this week since 360 hit the Top 10 this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a heavenly song. But definitely not as good as 360, but it's still heavenly. With my opinion on this song, the production was super phenomenal, Charli's vocals were so heavenly, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was super heavenly. Hopefully this should become a hit on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Shaboozey - A Bar Song (Tipsy): Well I actually didn't expect it to still be in the Top 5, but I'm still glad about that. But again I'm sure this is going to be out of here within the next week or so.

4. Sabrina Carpenter - Espresso: Gosh, this song really has been enjoying the Topo 5 on there lately. But again I'm sure this is going to be out of here very soon.

3. Sabrina Carpenter - Please Please Please: I feel like this song is about to be out of the Top 3 very soon. But I'd like it to stay in there for at least one more week or so.

2. Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe!: Yeah I'm sure this song is going to stay in the Top 5 for at least a few more weeks. Let's see how long it'll remain in there.

1. Billie Eilish - Birds Of A Feather: Holding the top spot for the 2nd week in a row. I'm fine with this song still in there. I'm definitely still giving credit to that. Now, let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.
