#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: DJ Snake/ Don Toliver- Something Wrong

Ok why did Nice To Each Other re-enter? I don't think we needed this.

We do have one debut though, Tears by Sabrina Carpenter. Ok, this isn't all that bad. The beat isn't all that bad, as in it doesn't make the song sound like a carbon copy of Busy Woman or Manchild, and Sabrina Carpenter sounds pretty good, my real issue is this struggles to find what key to stay in, and this is usually an issue I have. So not bad, but could've been better.

Lady Gaga and the Netflix show Wednesday... When you think of those two things at the same time, you think of when Bloody Mary went viral a couple years ago after being featured on the Wednesday soundtrack. So now, Lady Gaga has written a new song for the soundtrack of the current season of Wednesday, this is called The Dead Dance. And this is thankfully a lot better than Bloody Mary. The beat here makes a lot more sense and Lady Gaga sounds pretty good. I'll take this.

So Justin Bieber surprise dropped the sequel to Swag, and from it, we have Love Song. This is also surprisingly solid. It has a decent enough beat and Justin Bieber sounds pretty good per usual. Not sure how I can tolerate this era of him, but I do.

Usually, I never seek anything out from FlowerOvLove, but she just put out a new song called I'm Your First, and this is really good. This may be one of her better vocal performances and the beat is solid, and it's in a key that makes me want to like this. Yeah, I'm fine with them adding this.

Lastly, 12 To 12 re-entered, replacing I Wish I Knew How To Quit You. 12 To 12 is definitely the better song anyways, so no complaints there.

Aside from I Wish I Knew How To Quit You, we lost Dancer and She Got A Thing About Her. Dancer was alright, but She Got A Thing About Her was quite good and deserved to debut the countdown.

Blurbs:

Our exits were No Broke Boys and Betty. These should really still be here...

Looks like Blue Strips and Party 4 U might be out of here soon. That would be greatly appreciated.

Jealous Type jumped huge off its debut from last week. Great to see.

Jump rebounded to just outside the top 15. Hopefully, it continues living up to its title.

Looks like Cliche might be on its way out, but I can't complain too much, it had a great run here.

Of course Survive is just outside the top 10.

The Subway finally entered the top 10. Happy to see that.

We need to see more movement in the top 7 besides Golden and Love Me Not switching spots, please and thank you.

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