Ed Sheeran (9) - Week of April 29, 2017

Well then, I'd hesitate to call this week a good week, to begin with. We did have some good exits leaving us, even if they weren't replaced with some of the best songs that are out there. I have yet to finish my blog intro special, and I'm working on each post day by day on hopefully completing them. Anyways, we have a two-exit week this week. Also, Shape of You now makes it on the "most # of weeks at #1" since it spent nine weeks at #1 on this chart, which I'm definitely not looking forward to. Since I really have nothing else to talk about, here are the poll results.

Paris (1st time) 5 votes
That's What I Like (1st time) 1 vote
Shape of You (1st time) 1 vote

So Paris won this week's competition again. I'm also hoping that this song could hit #1 sometime soon. But that unfortunately may not happen, but we'll see. Let's get to our exits:

• Drake - Fake Love (#37)
• Sabrina Carpenter - Thumbs (#38)

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: G-Eazy/Bebe Rexha - Me, Myself, & I

Hot Shot Debut: Imagine Dragons - Believer (#38)

Greatest Gainer: Harry Styles - Sign of the Tunes (#18)

New Entrants

-At #40 we have Chance the Rapper featuring Knox Fortune with All Night. Personally, I think that this song is more rap than pop, but who knows Billboard does some really crazy things with songs like this one and just adds in random rap songs such as this one. This rap song is actually quite good. The music is amazing, and I watched a performance on this song the other day, which pretty much just made the song better. The lyrics are laughable, which makes the song better also. But the vocals are actually pretty good. But personally, I have no idea if this song is going to debut my #40Tuesday though, but in time, we'll see if it does or doesn't. Sorry for those of you who aren't big fans of Chance the Rapper or just somehow hate this song, but this song is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. Unfortunately for me and those rap fans out there it looks like it's only going to be a matter of weeks before the song is gone from this chart. Or it could miraculously hit #1 (and I don't mean "miraculously" by "I love it," it's just that I think that it's kind of weird for a rap song to hit #1 on a pop songs station on the Billboard. But something like this happened exactly one year ago (can you guess the rap song)?

-Our less interesting debut this week comes from Imagine Dragons with Believer. To be honest with you, this is not the Imagine Dragons that I used to like, with really big hits such as Radioactive and I Bet My Life. This song is completely different. The vocals are a mess, and they aren't laughable like the ones in Chance the Rapper/Knox Fortune - All Night. The first verse is okay, but other than that, the song is a complete mess. I also hate when they say "pain" and "you build me a believer, believer" because those are the worst lines in the entire song, or at least that's how Imagine Dragons sings it like that. There is too much music going on, and the "Oh-ooh" part is definitely one of the worst. I'm sorry for those of you who like this song, but I'm going to have to put this song under "crap" because of how lazy the production is. Maybe doing that is a little bit of an exaggeration now that I go back to this song, but we'll see if that changes. Maybe it will. Maybe it won't. But for now I'm definitely not enjoying this song at all.

You Made Me a Blurber

-Yuck. I'll never miss any of our exits. I know that . is going to be sad about Thumbs leaving so quickly, and the Drake fans from The Drake Show are going to be sad over Fake Love leaving. But not me. The point is, I won't miss either of our exits. Next!

-I'm actually getting kind of worried that Human isn't going to do anything here. Then again, I don't really see this song becoming that big of a hit, but can we please peak higher than songs like Million Reasons, who really need to leave this chart soon?

-It looks like Waterfall is going to be in brown for the rest of its tenure. Not because I like it or anything, but I can't really hate it. Unless it spends like twenty weeks, makes a huge jump, or just somehow becomes a hit here. The point is, I want this song to leave, but I probably won't miss seeing this song leave.

-Oh great. Songs like Play That Song, Scared to be Lonely, and Swalla are dropping. Billboard, you must realize, that you're dropping all of the good songs and keeping all of the trashy songs such as Love on the Brain and I Don't Wanna Live Forever here. Fix this Billboard!

-Green Light is really going to be a flop here. Billboard, you do understand that you jumped this song up like 81 spots on the Hot 100, and now it's flopping here?  #BillboardLogic

-Oh no. iSpy and Call On Me are really close in entering the top 20. Please, just somehow make these songs flop!

-Of course Down is dropping just because I'm liking this song. Wow.

-I'm actually really surprised that Mercy is still here. Not because I don't hear this song on my local radio every day, but because of Billboard's rule. Basically the rule is, if the song spent at least twenty weeks on this chart and is mean to be ranked below #15, then instead of keeping that song on the chart, Billboard kicks this song out. So let's say that Mercy is supposed to be #16 this week. Instead of Mercy being at #16, it would actually be one of our exits because of that rule. It used to be #20 instead of #15 for this chart, which is pretty much making songs having really long tenures on this chart much harder to achieve, just because of that.

-Issues just got worse. And despite that, it's not the worst song here.

-Chained to the Rhythm, can you please just leave? I really don't want to have to hate a song from an artist that I actually like, Katy Perry. So yeah, it would be appreciative if you could leave soon.

-I personally think that Something Just Like This is going to enter the top 5 soon. And that means that songs like I Feel It Coming and I Don't Wanna Live Forever are going to start dropping. Maybe even Shape of You can start to decline since I'm sick of it and I really don't want this song spending more time at #1 than Closer.

-Can It Ain't Me not hit the top 5? I can't stand Selena Gomez's verses, and Kygo doesn't do anything in this song. The music is terrible, same with the verses.

-Great, I've always wanted Rockabye to enter the top 5. The last thing that I need is some mediocre Sean Paul verses entering the top 5 and invading the chart.

-I've never wanted to say it, but it looks like if Shape of You is going to decline, then That's What I Like could have a chance of hitting #1. Paris, Something Just Like This, and maybe even Rockabye should get rid of That's What I Like and Shape of You from hitting #1. The last thing I need is a trashy Bruno Mars song to be at #1 on this chart. Wow.

Song That Debuted This Week One Year Ago + Review On Greatest Gainer

Greatest Gainer: Lukas Graham - 7 Years
I can't stand the singing in the chorus. Lukas Graham really needs to try harder if he wants to please me with his new singles. (2/10)

Hot Shot Debut: Drake/WizKid/Kyla - One Dance
Okay, just because of Drake, this song is really bad. I hate the rapping in this song, and the fact that every single video posted on YouTube does not contain the full song is really driving me nuts. (1/10)

Other Debut: Pitbull/Enrique Inglesias - Messin' Around
Really catchy song. (8/10)

Other Debut: P!nk - Just Like Fire
Sorry guys, but I can't stand the singing on this song. The pre-chorus is awful,  the music is terrifying to my ears, and the way P!nk sings in the song is really driving me crazy. (2.5/10)

Other Debut: Jeremih - Oui
Just your average song. Nothing special about it. (4/10)



-Thanks for reading, everybody!

Ed Sheeran (8) - Week of April 22, 2017

Oh my god. Someone kill me. We still have our trashy #1 song but our #2 is even worse. But the trashiest song of the year just had to jump, but I'm not quitting on blogging just because of that. Our #15 song exits for the third week in a row, and we've had five debuts, which is the record ever since I started blogging. But the best song of the year so far also jumped, which I guess cancels out with the worst song of the year jumping. But we did have some activity going on here, but of course the hot shot debut had to jump, then again, that other debut last week jumped even more, making the two somehow cancel out. But the thing that me, Hollow Man, ., and Sasha hate the most is #36 leaving the chart. But most people despise this song, so I beg you guys to please not have a be-gone party. As far as the poll goes, there was more variety of responses. So here we go:

Paris (1st time) 6 votes
That's What I Like (1st time) 1 vote
Shape of You (1st time) 1 vote

It was pretty much almost identical to last time's poll results. I'm pretty sure . voted for Shape of You again. But let's get to our exits:

• Machine Gun Kelly/Camilla Cabello - Bad Things (#15)
• Adele - Water Under the Bridge (#24)
• Ariana Grande/Future - Everyday (#28)
• Noah Cyrus/Labrinth - Make Me (Cry) (#36)
• Major Lazer/PARTYNEXTDOOR/Nicki Minaj - Run Up (#40)

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: G-Eazy/Bebe Rexha - Me, Myself, & I

Greatest Gainer & Hot Shot Debut: Harry Styles - Sign of the Tunes

New Entrants
-At #40 we have the song of Human. Honestly, this song is too weird for me to fully enjoy. I can't stand the chorus that much even though the lyrics are super catchy. It was kind of unexpected for this song to debut at #40 here and at #100 on the Billboard. But I am enjoying this song at the moment more so let's hope that this song can somehow get rid of the some of the bad songs that are currently on this chart. But my opinion could change on this song soon.

-Good Life is nothing but amazing. The verses are well-though of, and the music is amazing, especially the pre-chorus. I can't stand out but listen to this song a lot. G-Eazy has definitely impressed me with his songs, such as Me, Myself, & I, so let's hope that this song has some success on the countdown as well.

-After Not Afraid Anymore failed to make it onto this chart we have Now or Never. This is personally not Halsey's best song, but I can definitely take it. She shows it through here vocals and music that goes along with this song is some pretty cool stuff. This song is the exact opposite of what New Americana is. I'll accept this song being on here for however long it will be on this chart, and it will always be for a good reason.

-Next up is #35 with Castle on the Hill by Ed Sheeran. I personally thought that since Shape of You was a big hit that this song would fail to make it onto this chart. I'm glad I was wrong. When Ed Sheeran does things with his guitar, he makes it a hundred times better. This can all be proven with this song. The lyrics are amazing, the pre-chorus is catchy, and how does anyone not like this song? This is the best debut of our five. I'll definitely accept this song debuting at #6 on the Billboard a few months ago. This song is probably Ed Sheeran's best song to date and it's always going to be for good reasons.

-Of course the worst debut of the week just had to have the title of greatest gainer and hot shot debut both in one week. To start us off, the vocals are horrible, and the music is trash. The lyrics aren't that special to me, and it all composes on making such a bad and crappy song. Let's hope that this song cannot become a big hit and be an even bigger flop than Make Me (Cry). Despite all my hate for this song, though, it's not the worst song on this chart, or even my bottom 5 songs for this chart. I don't know what 2017 has gotten into in music, but my hypothesis is that we're just in the dark ages for music.

Sign of the Blurbs
-I never expected to write so much on the new entrants. But there were a lot. So there probably won't be that many blurbs this week. I'm hoping to get an album review sometime soon when I have the time, so that's partially the reason why there aren't that many blurbs.

-To be honest with you, Bad Things was long overdue, and good riddance to Water Under the Bridge and Everyday. Run Up definitely will not be missed either. But the only exit that I can see that probably deserves recognition is Make Me (Cry). One of the catchiest songs out of the entire year, and the only song to date in which before I heard this song I thought it was going to be complete trashy but I really like the song. I don't think I'm the only person out there that agrees with my statements. I don't think that song will re-enter, though, but it looks like Water Under the Bridge and Run Up could though.

-I really wish Sabrina Carpenter - Thumbs could leave soon. This song probably should've left instead of Make Me (Cry), and should I have to do a blurb on this, I will.

-I am praying right now that I Love You will not become a hit. Please don't become a hit, I beg you.

-Of course that huge piece of trash that debuted the countdown last week had to make an eight spot jump. It isn't really that big anywhere else, so hopefully this song will flop.

-Of course Green Light had to leave the top 20 just so we could get Slide in it. I want to get rid of that song in the top 20, and if it takes having me to put Green Light in green, then we'll just have to let that be.

-Of course Marian Hill - Down has to continue dropping. It looks like it could miss the year-end lists for all stations completely, while I don't want that to happen. At least it looks like someone agrees with me.

-Say You Won't Let Go just gets better and better after each listen. I finally figured out what was the best thing about this song, and it's the lyrics.

-Issues had better not be jumping. I'm praying at this point that this song can drop soon and miss all of the year-end charts, because this song is complete trash.

-Of course Something Just Like This made it into the top 10 soon. If this song can hit #1 sometime soon I'd be impressed, but the chances of that happening soon are like nothing.

-Hooray for I Don't Wanna Live Forever dropping. Hopefully it'll leave soon, but from what it looks like, it already clenched a spot on the year-end list. I can't stand the song anymore at this point, so hopefully the song will leave.

-Yes for Paris jumping! I know that the chances of it hitting #1 aren't that high, but if it could stay on this chart and in the top 5 that would be great. You all know by now that I'm a huge fan of the Chainsmokers.

-Of course we still have our #2 holding on. To be honest, I am really hoping that Issues can leave soon, not just for the sake of myself, just so that That's What I Like can go into the color that it deserves. I don't see this song dropping anytime soon, though.

-Billboard made a mistake by saying that Hands to Myself was the #1 song this week one year ago. Hands to Myself was not #1 for two consecutive weeks in April 2016. Get it right, Billboard!

Songs That Debuted This Chart This Week One Year Ago + Review On Greatest Gainer

Greatest Gainer: Nick Jonas/Tove Lo - Close
This song doesn't grab my attention that much at all. The lyrics have nothing to do with the song itself, and the pre-chorus is terrible. I don't know who thought of creating a song like this and why it was the greatest gainer in the first place, but sorry Hollow Man, I do not like it. (2.5/10)

Hot Shot Debut: Sia/Sean Paul - Cheap Thrills
Oh great, another song on here that I don't like. Sorry Jack, but I can't stand the obnoxious screaming from the kid, and again, Sean Paul makes the song worse. I just don't understand how this song could hit #1 on the Billboard and this chart. But I guess America has some mindsets to fix when it comes to music. (3/10)

Other Debut: Rihanna - Kiss It Better
I would have never thought of a song with this title. Seriously, guys, why did a song with this title on it have to become a hit? (2/10)


Other Debut: Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty
This song pretty much contradicts everything said in Hide Away. I can't stand the music that goes along in the song, but thankfully this song wasn't popular anywhere on the Billboard, but it was on Hits 1. I can't see why this song is catchy in the first place. Daya is failing miserably to impress me with her new singles, and this song proves it. (1.5/10)

#1 Recommendation for This Chart: Ed Sheeran - Galway Girl

I'm going to do these things now called question of the week, or QOTW. These will be any sort of questions for you guys to answer. Here's the first one:

Question of the Week (QOTW): Which one of our five debuts this week do you like the best? Given that Castle on the Hill is the only debut that appears in my top 5 picks this week, that should give you my answer.

-Thanks for reading!

Ed Sheeran (7) - Week of April 15, 2017

Sorry that I couldn't get this post out sooner. The only real reason that I didn't have this post out any sooner was just pure laziness. here were the poll results from two weeks ago (I forgot to update it and I'm posting the results right now. There will be a new poll out soon). There were six responses, with Paris getting five votes, Shape of You getting one vote, and the rest of the songs got zero votes. This week was straight up mediocre at its best, and nothing interesting happened here. So let's get to our exits:

• Alessia Cara - Scars to Your Beautiful (#15)
• Fitz/The Tantrums - HandClap (#40) [Good riddance, and don't fucking re-enter again!]

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: Selena Gomez - Hands to Myself

Greatest Gainer: Bruno Mars - That's What I Like

Hot Shot Debut: Zayn/PARTYNEXTDOOR - Still Got Time

New Entrants
-Still Got Time is bland and boring. The verses are mediocre at its best, and the music doesn't have my appeal. I would much rather have preferred songs such as Pillowtalk and I Don't Wanna Live Forever (even that is better than this song), and this song was really close to being pink. I really hope that this song doesn't become a big hit, and with songs such as Shape of You holding the top, hopefully that doesn't happen.

-Drake's songs have been really crappy throughout the year and last year. I think that Passonfruit is the only good song that was ever created by Drake. I love the verses for whatever reason, and it's unlike anything that Drake has ever done in the past, trying to bog us with random and at most bad verses. This song has been the exact opposite. With songs like Fake Love dying, hopefully this song can replace it. Too bad that this song was taken away from the Hot Shot Debut with Still Got Time. But I can still live with that.

Still Got Blurbs
-That above title is true. As much as I don't like our Hot Shot Debut, I still have to do everything based off of there. Sadly.

-Good riddance to long-awaited Scars to Your Beautiful and especially fucking HandClap. Both of these exits will never be missed by me even the slightest. Two more songs to be put in the land of the forgotten.

-So is Make Me (Cry) going to flop on this chart? I hope not. Billboard, you introduce all of these new artists, you have to make sure that their first song does well to "motivate" them in a way to continue to make music.

-Everyday dropping is making me happy. I really hope that I don't have to review this song, because words cannot explain how pleasing this song is to drop not just five spots, but more than five spots (seven, to be exact).

-I really hope the top 20 can maintain its current position. We have six really trashy songs right behind it that should really flop.

-Say You Won't Let Go is getting better and better after each listen. Sorry ., but Hollow Man, Adrian, Scott, and Jack are really pushing me to like this song even more, but you're not making me like this song any less.

-There is nothing special about Stay. Zedd and Alessia Cara have done better songs than this one. The music is straight up mediocre, and the lyrics are decent. But don't get me started on the lyrics........

-If I want Shape of You to be replaced, I want it to be replaced by one of the two Chainsmokers songs.

-So Marian Hill - Down starts dropping right after I like this song? Sounds about right.

-I'm finished with Rockabye. This song seriously does not need to hit #1. I will admit that this song is still better than Cheap Thrills, but still, this song is so crappy. Can we not, please?

-I'm really finished with That's What I Like being the greatest gainer. I wanted to put this song in pink so bad after that, but I hate Julia Michaels - Issues so much! Issues is probably the worst song of the year so far because it's bland, boring, and lyric-wise the song is dumb. I can criticize this song in just about every way I want to.

-We need something else other than Ed Sheeran - Shape of You to be at #1. But I would take that song over That's What I Like and I Don't Wanna Live Forever, but can we get that song out of here in the future?

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: Flo Rida - My House

Hot Shot Debut: Stargate/P!nk/Sia - Waterfall

Greatest Gainer: Bruno Mars - That's What I Like

New Entrants
-Ugh...A #40 re-entry from Fitz/The Tantrums - HandClap. The last thing I need to do is to call this song handcrap just because.

-At My Best is fun and catchy. Let's hope that song like this get rid of some of the red on this page, which is literally a lot.

-Honestly, I Love You has nothing special about it. It's just plain, old, and boring in some sort of fashion. Please don't become a hit.

-Last but not least we have Waterfall. A fun song, to be honest, and the song is amazing. Let's become a hit!

I Can Make Your Blurbs Crap
-As for as our exits go, good riddance to the song which just repeatedly says "no", the song that sounds like it was made from a three-year old, a song that is a most shitty trashy rap song, and another song that was a one-week wonder and got bad really quickly. None of these songs will be missed.

-Run Up is not doing anything on this chart. Please leave soon.

-Hooray for #30! Let's get some trash out of here!

-So is Make Me (Cry) going to become a flop? Why are all of the good songs dropping and the bad ones jumping? I don't know....

-The Big Sean album is trash. Bounce Back is the worst. Please replace this song with something else!

-Well ha to Everyday dropping one spot! The top 20 does not call for this song at all.

-Take it one step at a time, Issues. Don't listen to bitchy . or Hollow Man, and just get this song out of here!

-Let's get Something Just Like This at #1! This song is truly amazing and is probably the best Chainsmokers song out there.

-I partially grew into Marian Hill - Down. The lyrics might get repetitive, but it's catchy.

-If Something Just Like This isn't going to hit #1 anytime soon, can Paris be #1 please? This is the only song in the top 10 that is great.

-I really don't want I Feel It Coming at #1 on the other hand, though. Sure, I might still like it, but The Weeknd songs actually get old really quickly.

-And is our #2 and #1 going to stick in the top 2 spots forever? I hope not.

-Yuck! All our exits pretty much deserved to go. Next!

-I hope that Shining is a one-week wonder because there's nothing special about it.

-Go Train Go! We need Play That Song to enter in at least the top 5 and get songs such as Love on the Brain out of there.

-I am waiting for Fake Love to finally leave. I despise Drake like most people do.

-Make Me (Cry) should not be flopping. I don't understand all of the hate for that song so please get it up higher!

-Just one spot for Something Just Like This? What????????????

-We really don't need Issues still here. It's bland and boring and shouldn't have existed at all.

-Come on, we already had Cheap Thrills, we don't need Rockabye to become a hit!

-Let's hope that Paris and I Feel It Coming can be in the future top two spots and get rid of the top 3 all out of here.
