So we have three debuts here on Hitbound, the issue is that they are all forgettable as hell. The first one is Easy Lover by Miley Cyrus, and this is good, I guess. It's definitely a little bit better than End Of The World, but that's all I can really remember about it. And that's really all you need to know about my opinion here.

Up next is single #4 from the F1 soundtrack and only the second to make it on Hitbound (although Lose My Mind is in the abyss as we speak). This is Just Keep Watching by Tate McRae, and it's just good, nowhere near as good as the last song I heard from her, which was the Morgan Wallen collab. She sounds fine and it has a good beat, again, this is a bit forgettable. Needs more listens from me.

And lastly, we have a random newcomer, because of course we do. this is Dream Police by Sienna Spiro. Again, this is just a good song. She sounds fine and the vibe I get here is more dream than police. So yeah, fine song, could've been more memorable.

We lost Crazy Stupid Love, Old Phone, and French Girls. As much as I liked Crazy Stupid Love, it was time for this to leave a few weeks ago, so I'm fine with that leaving. I kind of wish Old Phone was given a chance to debut because I still like it more than Azizam (and still like that song), and French Girls was a bit weird, so I'm fine with that leaving.

Blurbs

Good News fell six spots off the re-entry. Again, I'm sure this second run is short lived.

End Of The World jumped all the way to #6. Don't entirely know how to feel about that.

And that's pretty much it. the range of drops and jumps for everything else was between -2 and +2. Doesn't spell out interesting, right?

I guess that does it for me this week, see you guys next week.
