Zedd/Alessia Cara (2) - Week #19

I forgot to do a proper introduction for my personal chart so I will do it here.

If you guys don't already know, where I live, Montreal, we are experiencing some major floods. Over 500 families have been affected and are now living in churches or gyms until the water level recedes. My school has been closed for a week because the road leading up to it, though not the school itself, is flooded. I am lucky to be living inland as is my family, but I have a friend whose house is flooded three feet up his wall. Army members have come to help us out putting sand-bags to prevent others from being flooded. Even worse, we are expecting some more rain this week-end. "But global warming doesn't exist..."

And I had two math contests today, round 3 for one of them. I might not get the #50Friday post out until Sunday or later therefore... Last year anyway, I won and got a nice trip to Paris, I mentioned I went to Paris in an earlier post. Fingers crossed!

So like my blog, the #1s have been changing every week. This is the first time in a month that we have a song at #1 for consecutive weeks.

And the massive Hit-Bound problem more or less fixed itself this week, but the dreadful I'm The One debuted...

And for some crazy reason Hit-Bound decided to pick up Body Like A Back Road. Wow. There are so many songs out there that would make so much more sense to have on here than a mediocre country song. And Despacito still isn't on there...

Comments on debuts:
So the debuts from American Girls and Sooner Or Later, the two songs that left Hit-Bound are much appreciated to start off. American Girls is a cool rock song, though I know better, and the tune is pretty catchy. But I did NOT expect this on to debut.

As for the epic Sooner Or Later, I was very worried that is was gone for good. But amazingly North America has taste and picked a great song to debut. The verses are extremely catchy and the chorus is amazing! This guy's voice sounds perfect throughout the song. I really hope this song can make a top 20 appearance at least.

I reviewed I'm The One in the comments section in last post. Is hasn't changed from the absolute trash it is.

Slow Hands is a great mellow song with a catchy part to it also. Not much else to say. I guess I could call it a replacement for Miss You.

Hit-Bound:

Ocean Park Standoff - Good News
Hailee Steinfeld - Most Girls
Sam Hunt - Body Like A Back Road (DEBUT)
Jason Derulo/Ty Dolla $ign/Nicki Minaj - Swalla
Jon Bellion - Overwhelming
Noah Cyrus - Stay Together (DEBUT)
Hey Violet - Break My Heart
Mansionz/G-Eazy - Wicked
Zayn/PartyNextDoor - Still Got Time
Fall Out Boy - Young & Menace
Machine Gun Kelly/Hailee Steinfeld - At My Best (DEBUT)
Erin Bowman - Good Time Good Life
DNCE - Kissing StrangersKaty Perry - Bon Appétit

~Hopefully Good Life can pull an American Girls or a Sooner Or Later and come back. That really was a special one.

I'm The Blurb

Once again we have pure class... in the thirties... Completely underrated...

Our top 5 is looking pretty solid. All good, and none of them are even starting to grow out of me.

Doesn't it make total sense that Closer is the #13 most popular song in North America? Could we get Heavy or All Night back up there?

As Slide continues to jump, Don't Leave and Lights Down Low continue to drop. These actions should 100% be reversed!

We have two horrible top 10 entrants and the awesome Something Just Like This, which I hope will hit #1 before I get sick of Stay. Give Stay 15 weeks before is turns blue, then red.

Hopefully 24K Magic and Side To Side will leave before 2018.

I have grown out of This Town.

I really cannot see what is so good about Play That Song.

We really had little action this week.
