My Mom's Review of the 6/17/17 WC

Hey guys! This is the first out of three bonus posts I'll be posting throughout this week in place of the 6/17 WC. My mom will be reviewing this week's WC!

My mom has recently been saying that music has been getting worse and worse lately, and you can tell because there's only one great song on this countdown for her. I was expecting a couple more 5-point songs, but apparently not. I was kind of surprised by some of her gradings. And it may not be fully accurate since she did not listen to every song entirely. But anyway...

The color code will be on a 5-point scale.
Orange = Worst Song (-1)
Red = Crap (0)
Turquoise = Bad (1)
Yellow = Mediocre (2)
Pink = Decent (3)
Blue = Good (4)
Green = Great (5)
Purple = Best Song (6)

  1. Here is another "guess the song" that I commented last post.

    My artist currently has a song on Hit-Bound.
    The album that both the Hit-Bound song and I were on has a number in its title.
    I was on the WC, but I did not hit #1 there.
    You should be down to 2 songs. The number in my album title is 7 lower than the other option.
    [Comment if you need another hint]

  2. I may have just found the worst song ever:

  3. Dang, not a single song here that is green. Slide seems to be all alone when it comes to her liking.

    1. I know. I remember recently she really liked Cold and Heavy.

  4. Slide. Really. How on Earth is Slide better than sooner or later?

    1. The better question is how is SOTT the worst compared to Starving, Don't Wanna Know, Bad Things, and Body Like A Back Road?

      Delete
    2. She thought SOTT was really boring.

  8. The guest DJ who just introduced Paris said that she and her husband were celebrating their 25th anniversary, and that they had never had a fight. Awwwwwww. The feels.

  9. "Her new song Uh Huh made its debut on Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff two weeks ago..."

    Don't fudging remind us, Spyder. If Uh Huh does become a hit, I reckon it might become the Me Too of 2017. But it's not doing so hot right about now, so hopefully we don't have to get too concerned. Then again since I just jinxed it, watch it roar up next week.

  10. 7. Say You Won't Let Go

    And here we go again.

    1. Not for long, until it flops! It's done that on the radio charts, now drop here please.

      Delete
    2. It's one of two songs - the other being Issues - that quite a few people predicted would break the Top 10 on the Hot 100, but barely missed it.

      Delete
    3. Issues hasn't flopped yet.

      Delete
  11. It's Something Just Like This at #1 again!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Indeed! Very good news. But before that, one year ago #1 was I Took a Pill In Ibiza.

      Which was my top song from last year's final Top 45, and Adrian said it wasn't horribly far from his too.

      Delete
    2. You could find out exactly where Adrian placed it if you looked at the rest of the year-end rankdown. The #1 was revealed last Friday. :)

      Delete
    3. Yep, I saw it. I will say that I was surprised to see the #1 there. I know that ITaPII was his second favorite song of 2016 from his Top 45 page.

  12. Erin Bowman - Good Time Good Life isn't my Lights Over Paris Award this year.

  13. New Music Alert: Champion by Fall Out Boy

    This just played on Hit-Bound. After Young and Menace released to almost nonexistent fanfare, I think people will like this more, even if it's not doing too hot on iTunes right now.

  14. Hey Violet - Break My Heart shouldn't have the Biggest Drop and Jason Derulo - Swalla shouldn't have the Biggest Jump.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. This is both unacceptable and needs to be fixed. I'm actually happy about AJR - Weak having the Biggest Drop though.

  15. Hey, guys. Just a heads up: my post is going to be late because I have stuff going on right now.

      Hit-Bound:
      Reminding Me
      Champion
      Crying in the Club
      Feels [w/o Big Sean]
      Uh Huh
      Thunder
      Galway Girl

      Cut to the Feeling

      After CTTF played, Renegades played, and after that, Wicked played. Wicked did not play on the earlier Hit-Bound, so it isn't on Hit-Bound this week but still on Hits 1's rotation.

    2. Am I seriously the only one in this entire community who actually tries to commit himself to getting at least one post out every week, without falling behind?!

    3. I'll try to post more often. I have two random posts planned I'm hoping to get out soon.

    4. Sasha and Montavis get their posts out on time a lot.

    5. Yeah, your right, but out of all of us, we are the only three that actually do, while the rest of you lie around lazily.
