New Entrants

-At #38 we have James Arthur with Say You Won't Let Go. Personally, I have mixed feelings with this song. Sometimes I will be in love with this song, and sometimes I don't care about this song. But to be honest, I don't know if this song is going to grow on me in the future. The lyrics are mediocre, and the song is boring. I probably shouldn't have added the last part, because boring songs can be good too, such as *cough* Dancing On My Own *cough*. Anyways, I don't see this song becoming as big as a hit as Let It Go by James Bay. We'll see how long this song stays on here, though. But for now, I don't mind this song being here.

-Our hot shot debut unfortunately has to come from Ariana Grande and horrible Future with their horrible song Everyday. The verses are annoying. The official video basically makes the song much worse, especially the intro of that. The official video is horrible in every way, and there's pretty much nothing special about it. The song itself is horrifying on its own, but it's Future that makes this song one of the worst on this chart, especially when he sings his verses. Honestly, I hope this song flops and does not become that big as a hit as Side to Side, Dangerous Woman, or even Into You. The point is, I hope that this song can leave soon.

1. The Chainsmokers - Paris
2. Noah Cyrus/Labrinth - Make Me (Cry)
3. Calum Scott - Dancing On My Own
4. The Chainsmokers/Halsey - Closer
5. Ariana Grande/Nicki Minaj - Side to Side

My Bottom 5 Picks
1. Julia Michaels - Issues

Blog Intro Special: Alessia Cara (2) - Week of February 11, 2017

Welcome back to another blog intro post! Sorry if I'm spamming you with posts at the moment. I wonder how much longer it's going to take for someone besides Hollow Man to comment on my blogs. But that doesn't matter at the moment. This is still only the first month and I can take that. But this week is getting worse and worse. I mean, take a look at like four of our five debuts. They are not good. And the fifth one is like...mediocre, at the very best. I can't take this anymore, like I said again. I hope next week is a better week. Hopefully there can actually be good entrants and good exits next week. I highly doubt that, though. Let's get to our exits:
  • DJ Snake/Justin Bieber - Let Me Love You (#12)
  • Martin Garrix/Bebe Rexha - In the Name of Love (#34) [What the fuck Billboard?]
  • DJ Khaled/Nicki Minaj/Chris Brown/August Alsina/Jeremih/Future/Rick Ross - Do You Mind (#37)
  • Dua Lipa - Blow Your Mind (Mwah) (#38)
  • G-Eazy/Marc E. Bassy - Some Kind of Drug (#40)

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: Justin Bieber - Love Yourself

Greatest Gainer: The Chainsmokers - Paris (#14)

Hot Shot Debut: Julia Michaels - Issues (#31)

New Entrants

-We're first going to start out with our trashy rap song that just debuted this week. This one is Bad & Boujee. I was praying back then that this song wouldn't become a hit, but unfortunately it did. Literally, spending three weeks at #1 on the Hot 100 and blocking out Shape of You two weeks in a row from that chart from #1, that song was a hit. I don't exactly know what to say about this song other than that it's a really trashy rap song and I hope that I don't have to explain this song any further for you rap fans. Hopefully this song doesn't do well here, and besides, this is a pop songs chart, not a rap songs chart.

-Next up is Thumbs by Sabrina Carpenter. It starts out with a bunch of horrible singing, the verses are terrible, and the music is complete trash. Not to mention that this song is a bit catchy. But I still can't take this song. I don't think a single person out there likes this song at all. The most annoying verse out of all of them is the "skiddy-da-dum-dum" which she pretty much sings every other line in the song. And what's up with the horrible, annoying, repetitive "Somewhere in the world." I can't take this song anymore. What kind of makes me like this song somewhat is that me and Sabrina Carpenter have a common birthday.  Hopefully this song doesn't do well here. But it looks like this song could become a hit after all.

-Our mediocre song out of the five debuts and frankly the best one is Marian Hill with Down. Okay, no, I do not hate this song, because I can't hate it with the catchy music. The official video is actually pretty good, but the lyrics are straight dumb. It sounds like Marian Hill is trying to say "Are you dumb?" instead of "Are you down?" The music between beats are pretty much just space fillers and they're pretty lame in my opinion. Once again, no, I do not hate this song, I just think that the song is rather mediocre, and that Marian Hill really needs to step her game up, especially on this song. To be honest with you, I think that Hollow Man, Adrian, ., Parker, and Jack are going to adore this song. But not me.

-Next up is Starley with Call On Me. Personally, a song that says "You can call on me" is really bad already on its own. But to be honest with you, the music in this song is awful. How can I even stand to even listen to this song when I'm in my car turning up my local radio? The lyrics are straight up trash, and the way that Starley signs this horrible song pretty much makes this song even worse. I've heard much worse songs than this one, so I'm not saying that this song is the worst, but it's really bad. I hate it when people request songs like this one on the radio. This song actually has a good YouTube streak already, which I'm pretty much afraid of right now. Hopefully that on its own doesn't mean that this song is going to do well here, and let's hope that this song flops here instead.

-Our last, highest ranking debut, highest debut, and the worst debut of this week, we have Julia Michaels with Issues. To be honest, this song is having a negative impact on the music industry if I really want 2017 to be a better year for music. First off, we have the world of nothingness going on here, and what is that? I've got issues, you've got them too has got to be one of the most annoying and repetitive verses that I have ever heard in my life. I can't exactly say that this song is going to flop because it's actually gaining on the Hot 100, which means that it's going to gain on here. The way Julia Michaels sings this song pretty much makes the song even worse.I can't exactly say that this song won't become a big hit, because I know that it will, considering how much it's gaining on the Billboard Hot 100 at this point, which makes me really mad. Let's hope that this song doesn't become a hit here.

Blog Intro Special: Alessia Cara (1) - Week of February 4, 2017

This week is a legend. A legend, to be exact. Guess what the legend is. (It's not really a legend, but should be recognized regardless). So first off, this week was probably a little bit better, but not that much. I did introduce two more colors, which were purple and orange, and you all probably know what those colors stand for. I didn't have brown until I started blogging. So now I'll tell you what the "legend" is. Scars to Your Beautiful by Alessia Cara is now fourth place for the longest climb to number one on the pop songs charts on its 24th week. Tied for second is Forget You by CeeLo Green and Give Your Heart A Break by Demi Lovato with reaching #1 on its 25th week. And in first place (the sole first place) is Here by Alessia Cara, reaching #1 on the pop charts on its 26th week. But whatever. I bet half of my readers don't even care about records on the pop charts in the first place, just records in the hot 100. Anyways, here's our exit that we're finally bidding good day to.

#1 Song This Week One Year Ago: Alessia Cara - Here (Coincidence?)

Hot Shot Debut: Bruno Mars - That's What I Like

Greatest Gainer: The Chainsmokers - Paris

New Entrants

-Our lone entrant this week has to come from the trashy Bruno Mars with That's What I Like. Honestly, 24K Magic was basically a pot-hole of a mess, but this song is exactly three times worse. I mean, Bruno Mars back then was much better when he made songs such as Uptown Funk, but honestly this song, Versace on the Floor, and 24K Magic are complete atrocious. I hate the repetitive "lucky for you, that's what i like" and the music is horrifying. The verses are terrible, and the way Bruno Mars sings them makes it even worse. Can we please stop it, Bruno Mars? Your music is getting nowhere. I also find the production of the song to be really lazy, as well. This is basically a recreation of the worst parts of 24K Magic combined with Versace on the Floor. Despite my rant for this song, though, it's not the worst on the countdown, but if it becomes as big as a hit as 24K Magic (which I shouldn't be surprised if it didn't), or even an even bigger hit than 24K Magic (which probably won't happen, but still could), then this song can go in pink. But for now, I'm definitely not enjoying this song, and it doesn't look like I will ever enjoy this song in the future if it becomes a hit.
