Blurbs For the Weekend
That blurb title actually describes this :P
Say had a big drop this week, unfortunately.
What is with all these big drops? There were 8 10+ spot drops this week.
Someone get One Dance back into the teens! NOW!
The only debut I'm reviewing this week is this year's highest debut, at #17, Coldplay/Beyoncé/SeeB - Hymn For the Weekend. I hope Hits 1 can switch to the non-SeeB version, which I now like more than the other.
Toothbrush is now uninteresting.
I wish Girls Talk Boys and Unsteady would switch places.
Not good timing for Me Too to hit the top 10.
Send My Love (To Your New Lover) needs a little more power to hit #1! You can do it!

5. Drake/WizKid/Kyla - One Dance

I thought you loved Say?
ReplyDeleteI did, now it's just a normal song. I still like it. :P
DeleteAnd what's so good about Girls Talk Boys?
DeleteIt's catchy, what is so bad about 5SOS?
DeleteLuke Hemmings has a horrible voice, and the rock sound to their songs makes me want to go to hell. Their song lyrics are not meaningful whatsoever, and are useless, pointless, and downright annoying. I don't see all the love for them at all. And also why were people overreacting on social media to just Ashton's stupid haircut?! IT'S A GODDAMN HAIRCUT, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO ACT LIKE YOU JUST GOT ENGAGED OR SOMETHING?!?!
DeleteI agree with the haircut part.
DeleteSay is very annoying IMO. It would probably now be in the bottom 5 because her voice sounds like a kid.
DeleteUnlike Sir Buzzkill here, I don't mind the more punk rock instrumentation. I think is a nice change of pace, from the normal rap, teen pop, and alternative sound we normally here on the pop charts. I don't think Luke Hemmings voice is that bad, but its decent in my book. The lyrics however, do point them less punk rock and more boy band pop if anything. I just don't see the love for Girls Talk Boys, She's Kinda Hot and Hey Everybody. And I will agree that this social media stampede over something as stupid as a haircut proves my point on why I hate my own generation, because their all a bunch of idiots that freak out over the dumbest things.
DeleteI think that there were so many big drops this week is because next week may have a lot of exits.
ReplyDeleteYou really want 7 exits, don't you? :)
DeleteOr 6 next week so that the last weeks of August in 2014, 2015, and 2016 all have the same number of exits.
DeleteBut yes I do.
DeleteWe get it. You think every week should have 6 exits or more. And we are personally sick of hearing about it.
DeleteSorry but I'm a big disappointed that this year hasn't had a 6+ exit week next.
DeleteI will stop being hung up by it if it will happen.
