AT40: Chappell Roan (1) Week Of April 19, 2025

As far as the countdown goes, I thought that it looks super amazing, although we did get rid of a song that was in my top songs of last year, but we do have yet again another brand new #1 song on there. But I'm gonna get to that later on in this post as always. But other than that, I don't have anything else to say here, so let's get to it!

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

I'm super duper pleased to see Doechii - Anxiety (+14) gain lots of airplay on pop radio this week. This totally deserves to do that and take the biggest jumps this week! Now, hopefully this should go to the Top 20 within the next week or so.

I actually expected Alex Warren - Burning Down (-13) to take the biggest drop. I know it has been in there for quite a while so I'm actually fine with that. But I'm sure this is going to be on it's way out of here.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Chappell Roan - The Giver: Since Pink Pony Club just hit the top spot, we've now got another brand new single from her debuting on there this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a phenomenal song and it actually feels a little bit like a country song. But definitely not as good as Pink Pony Club, but it's still phenomenal. With my opinion on this song, the country production was so phenomenal, Chappell's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were so interesting, and the chorus was so heavenly. Hopefully this should do well on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Kendrick Lamar/SZA - Luther: I'm super pleased to see this song debut the Top 5. This totally deserves to be in there! Now, can we please let this song go to the Top 3 soon?

4. Gracie Abrams - That's So True: It dropped out of the Top 3 which I kinda didn't expect. But now I'm sure it's on it's way out of here so I'm sure this is going to be out of the Top 5 pretty soon.

3. Sabrina Carpenter - Bed Chem: It dropped out of the top spot. But it still had a really nice run in there for a couple weeks. But I'm sure this also might leave the Top 5 soon.

2. Lady Gaga/Bruno Mars - Die With A Smile: Gosh, this song sure doesn't want to leave the Top 3. But I know it's been in there for months so I'm sure this is definitely going to be out of here very soon.

1. Chappell Roan - Pink Pony Club: I'm so pleased to see this song at the top spot. The Pink Pony Club is now officially open! This really deserves to be at that spot. And now this has become her second #1 song on there which was exciting. Now, let's see how long it'll hold the spot.
