Blurby Say/Blurbsick
About time My House and Work left.

Me, Myself and I should also leave. Same with 7 Years.

I love Lovesick!

Missing You, Girls Talk Boys, Figure Me Out, and Treat You Better were close to being the biggest jump.

Speaking of biggest jump, 9 spots? That's the smallest biggest jump this year.

If I asked a random person "What is the most popular song right now?" they would most likely say "One Dance." That song DROPPED this week. How ridiculous.

I am not using pink for color-coding anymore. I'm using red for that now.

Last time Once in a While dropped? June 18.

Victorious should be out of the top 20 by now.

I Took a Pill in Ibiza took quite a big drop from #1.

Could Sit Still, Look Pretty be our next #1? I hope not.

Can Hits 1 give another song a shot at #1? Ride? Just Like Fire? Cheap Thrills?

My top 5 countdown
5. Adele - Send My Love (To Your New Lover)
4. Lukas Graham - Mama Said
3. Meghan Trainor - Me Too
2. Jacob Whitesides - Lovesick
1. 5 Seconds of Summer - Girls Talk Boys

Hit-Bound
Fifth Harmony - All in My Head (Flex) (DEBUT)
Andy Grammer - Fresh Eyes (DEBUT)
Troye Sivan/Alessia Cara - Wild
The Strumbellas - Spirits
Ariana Grande - Into You (DEBUT)
Flume/Kai - Never Be Like You (DEBUT)
Twenty One Pilots - Heathens (DEBUT)
AJR - I'm Not Famous
Coldplay/Beyoncé/SeeB - Hymn For the Weekend
MKTO - Superstitious (DEBUT)
Katy Perry - Rise
Steve Aoki/Boehm/Walk the Moon - Back 2 U
Magic! - Red Dress
Ben Rector - Brand New

6 Hit-Bound debuts this week, and that was not a typo. SIX. Probably the most Hit-Bound debuts in one week for this year.

Fifth Harmony bring All in My Head (Flex). I first fully heard this 10 days ago during the car ride to the airport to go to California. It was one of the most played songs in the car during the trip and it's really catchy.

Andy Grammer is back! Fresh Eyes is pretty good and I hope it makes the countdown.

Ariana Grande - Into You is awesome! It's probably going to debut the countdown.

I have never heard of Flume and Kai until this year and they have Never Be Like You on Hit-Bound. It's pretty good.

Twenty One Pilots' Tear in My Heart, Stressed Out, and Ride were pretty good, and this one, Heathens, is pretty bad. It's just boring to me.

MKTO are not new to the countdown as they have had four previous countdown songs, which were Thank You (definitely their best), Classic (a big hit), American Dream (pretty good), and Bad Girls (awesome). Superstitious is pretty good. Hopefully this one will make the countdown.

Yup, I've grown into Hymn For the Weekend. Both versions.

The oldest song on Hit-Bound is a tie between I'm Not Famous, Red Dress, and Brand New, each spending their 7th week on Hit-Bound.

Forgot a blurb. I can't believe I predicted that No Broken Hearts and I Wanna Know would leave Hit-Bound. Hello Friday also left Hit-Bound.

Whew! Those were a lot of Hit-Bound blurbs.

My top 5 Hit-Bound
5. Magic! - Red Dress
4. The Strumbellas - Spirits
3. Ben Rector - Brand New
2. AJR - I'm Not Famous
1. Ariana Grande - Into You
