Frenship/Emily Warren (1) - Week #43

So this really is the year of comebacks. There have been at least ten comeback songs that came out this year. Among them are the superior Starboy, and Make Me... Then there are songs like Rise, by Katy Perry, somewhere in between amazing and horrible. And last, we have songs that come out like 24K Magic, which everybody absolutely adores, probably more than I adored Stressed Out and In The Night when they came out. Naturally, this song becomes extremely popular and overplayed from its release date. I am not going to ramble on on how Bruno Mars has changed from his humbler ways and that he sings better than raps, because I know that I am not the first blogger you come to every weekend. There is a more popular one who agrees with me. So I am just going to say that this song is horrible, probably the worst song of the year of 2016. Yes even Lost Boy is better. Sorry to half the world who jams to this song 24/7, but I like The Lazy Song better than this garbage. Anyway, back to the countdown, if I got you this far. Nothing changed much. In fact, in the top 24 we only had one jump of more than 2 spots.

Comments on debuts:
All Time Low debuted Hit-Bound after I published Week #42's post. I think this song is catchy, but wrong in some parts. And I listened to it once and couldn't believe my ears.

Better: This song is so catchy. The voice changes are amazing! (I can't believe this album! This is OneRepublic's best ever. That's three 10/10s in a row) The concept of this song is amazing, too. I felt this same way for Heathens. (Now, not even close)

Hit-Bound:
Clean Bandit/Louisa Johnson - Tears
Shawn Mendes - Mercy
Virginia To Vegas - Lights Out
OneRepublic - Fingertips
OneRepublic - Heaven
