And baby, you can blurb me on the way

First up at #29 is Usher, Summer Walker & 21savage with Good Good. I really don't have much to say about this song. It's a good R&B/Hip-Hop song, i guess. It's not that interesting but i don't outright despise it. Speaking of people despising songs, #28 comes to mind...

Well, Folks, Some of us lost. Jessie Murph finally has a song on the Weekend Countdown after like 6 hit-bound dropouts. And i say some of us because it's kind of a guilty pleasure for me. It sounds almost exactly like Marshmello, Mae Muller & Trippie Redd's American Psycho, which i also liked. It has a dark EDM vibe with a little bit of a Country Twist that i can't exactly pin. anyways, Jessie Murph sounds astonishingly good here, and Diplo's production isn't *terrible*. Overall, Yeah, I like it. Jessie Murph & Maren Morris' Texas is better, but hey, This isn't bad, I'll give it that. Hope Jessie can sound more like this and less like she does on her album Drowning.

First, Jungkook can fuck me 7 days a week, and now he can Fuck me in 3D. What's next, Will he make a song with Nicki Minaj called Continents, where he lists the continents and says he can fuck me on all of them? Wow, I really can't wait for that... Anyways, This song sucks, although slightly less than Seven. Jack Harlow had a lame verse that seemed like he was really only there for another radio hit. Jungkook sounded bad... again. At least the lyrics were slightly more creative than Seven, even if they're still awful. Overall, This is awful, just slightly less so than Seven.

and the biggest release of the week is obviously the much welcomed return of *NSYNC after 23 years. This is a pretty good song... but i don't know exactly how to feel about it yet. It sounds like K-Pop to me... even if it's obviously not. It's still a good song though and I hope it can grow on me more in the next few weeks. It isn't a bad song at all. It really isn't. It's just different.

So sure of yourself, baby don't get blurby
Unfortunately, Fast Car left us this week. I kind of expected it to leave, but hey, it did so much better than I expected it to. We all know that Hits 1 doesn't really like Country, which is *usually* a good thing.

We also lost 2 other long-timers in the name of Give Me A Kiss and Autumn Baby. Crash Adams still have Sugar Mommy which is worse, but it isn't terrible. However what is terrible is Autumn Baby. Goodbye, you won't be missed.

One last song left... Keep Going Up! by Timbaland, Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake after a mere four weeks and not even leaving the bottom 5. Little did we know it would get pulled from radio a mere 2 weeks after it leaves Hits 1.

So for some reason, Nicki Minaj fell 13 spots with Last Time I Saw You. I know that Hits 1 doesn't tend to like Nicki Minaj, but come on! This is her best song she made in like forever!

Greedy, One More Time, and Lose Control all jumped 6 spots this week. That's a good thing, especially for greedy. Hope it does really well. Imagine if it makes #1 2 weeks from now.

Hey, Seven dropped not seven, but EIGHT spots to #17! That's a really good sign. Let's hope it leaves soon.

Paint The Town Red jumped 6 spots to #16. This is great news since it's finally started to grow on me.

Padam Padam and What Was I Made For both jumped huge. Okay? At least I'm growing into both of them as well, that's a plus.

The Top 5 switched around quite a bit, as we have a new #1 from Miley Cyrus and a new top 5 from Olivia Rodrigo. We'll see how long Miley stays at #1, and I hope Olivia can get #1 since vampire wasn't able to...

That's all for now, see you next post!!

#30 Song This Week In 2018: NOTD feat. Bea Miller - I Wanna Know [-1]

Do I have to blurb to hear you miss me?

Zara Larsson and the recycling center are back with On My Love. This is probably the best song I've heard at the recycling center in a while. We may have to take a trip to the Hits 1 ward office to give recycling compliments soon enough!

Blink-182 is back with One More Time. This is actually really good for a Blink-182 ballad. Some might say that I just like boring music, but I actually really like this. Spoiler: this fades on me very fast in the next few weeks.

 Haven't looked at you in a couple months, but I'm out right now and I'm all blurbed up

This week was pretty boring. Let's see why...

How did almost 10 songs not move this week? That's pretty boring, isn't it?

A collection of 5 songs only moved one, meaning half the countdown either held it's position or only moved one. That's pretty boring, isn't it?

Speaking of boring, one of the songs that held it's position is Snooze. I would rather this do something than be countdown-filler, please.

Dance The Night is really starting to Dance My Ears Away at this point and is now deemed bad. Hey, At least it fell 5 spots. That's a start!

Eww, Instead of taking the barbie bus off the countdown, Barbie World jumped 4 spots. Whyy_gone.

That's about all, let me know how i did in the comments!
