New Entrants
-For the first entrant at #40, I only heard the song once so I don't really have a say as to why or how I have an opinion on the song. Honestly, I'm surprised that the song even debuted on this chart. I'm not exactly going to talk about this song in much detail just because. The lyrics are good, but I don't like the production of the song very much. The vocals are really mediocre. And seriously, again, a bunch of featured artists is killing me when I type this out. Anyways, most of you are probably unfamiliar with this song. Don't worry, I am too. I can predict that this song is going to be a one-week wonder just because it's hardly popular.
-Well now we get interesting, with Katy Perry replacing herself with Bon Appetit. I think any Migos into the equation for this song pretty much makes the song a bit worse. Don't worry, I still like this song. The vocals are really amazing, and the lyrics are awesome. The only problem I have with the song is that the music can get annoying sometimes with the constant downbeats and all of that. But this song is definitely a much better version of Chained to the Rhythm. Migos adding himself to the song lowers my rating of the song a little bit, but that does not mean that I hate the song. Something tells me, though, that this song is going to flop here like Chained to the Rhythm did. But at least it made it here.
-I'm not very familiar with Miley Cyrus, nor that I really want to get familiar with her in the first place. I like Noah Cyrus's music much better, with her two singles of Make Me (Cry) and Stay Together, which were both pretty amazing songs. This one, I feel is just the opposite. I like Miley's vocals, but I don't like the production or the music that goes into the song. The lyrics I guess are okay, but whatever. I was actually juggling on between brown and yellow, but I decided yellow at the last minute just because of Noah Cyrus.
-Our best debut this week comes from Sam Hunt with Body Like A Back Road. I am a huge fan of Sam Hunt, with some of his songs being Take Your Time and House Party. Those were really good songs. This song matches with the exact same level as those two songs. I really like the production. The production is great and there is no reason anyone should hate the production of this song. The lyrics are actually really good. Same thing with the vocals. The music that goes in with this song matches with the song perfectly. Seriously haters, you really have to hate on such a good country song, and one of the best of the year?
-Our hot shot debut comes from Niall Horan with Slow Hands. I don't know if Hollow Man will like this song more over This Town, but I certainly do. The production is at a really good tempo and is not slow and sluggish like it was with This Town. The vocals are really good as well, just like they were in This Town. The lyrics are amazing as well. This is definitely the second best debut of the week, and I am looking forward to this song becoming as big as a hit like This Town was, if not, even more.
Slow Blurbs
-I'm sorry if the blurbs for the new entrants were pretty short. But the thing is, when there are more entrants, I can't write a lot, because that takes away from my more superior priorities.
-We did get rid of four old songs, and we'll see if I grow into any of them. The one exit that I think that does deserve recognition is G-Eazy and Kehlani with Good Life. Thank you for your amazing lyrics, right production, and great vocals. You will definitely be missed. You will probably see this song one last time on my top 40 songs of 2017 page at the end of the year.
-Just letting you know that the color for #40 means that I have no opinion on the song. I believe that this is the first time in which I used that color in one of my posts.
-Well, Marian Hill - Down is crowded with a bunch of debuts. I highly doubt it won't be long before this song leaves.
-Hopefully it won't be long before Still Got Time and I Love You leave. They're basically being a bunch of space fillers at this point.
-Hopefully it won't be long before Cake leaves at well. Thank you for bringing back bad Maroon 5 memories.
-Even though I think that the song is becoming old, thankfully Play That Song isn't finished yet. That's good.
-Great, Believer and The Cure are jumping. Seriously guys, this songs are complete garbage, especially with the former having the trashiest music humanely possible.
-So, are Scared to be Lonely and At My Best going to jump, or are they just to stay at middle ground?
-I have indeed somewhat grown into Despacito and Shape of You.
-It looks like this could be the end of Paris. Thank you for your time on the chart.
-Rockabye being in dark red is not a joke. I actually hate that song a lot now.
-Say You Won't Let Go jumping is fine with me but Issues jumping isn't.
-I don't understand the obsessions for It Ain't Me. The lyrics are so stupid, the music is trash, and the vocals are a letdown.
-Thankfully my favorite song on the chart dethroned my least favorite song on the chart from the top spot. This is what I call a good week.
-So, for our poll results, Something Just Like This had six votes, Stay had three votes, and the other three songs had exactly one vote each. Nothing much to say beyond that.

Songs That Debuted This Week One Year Ago + Review On Greatest Gainer
Greatest Gainer: Justin Timberlake - Can't Stop the Feeling
I already reviewed this song last week. Just check my brief review from last week. (10/10)
Hot Shot Debut: Belly/The Weeknd - Might Not
The vocals are trash, the lyrics are dumb, and is definitely the worst The Weeknd song out there. Sorry guys, but I believe that this might be one of the worst songs of last year. (0.1/10)
-Thanks for reading!
