Blurbs:

- What is It Ain't Me, That's What I Like, Lights Down Low, and The Cure still doing here? Seriously, get them out and let better songs get in. 

- Eds two songs, Perfect, and Shape Of You decided to switch spots. I have been growing into Perfect so much, and I don't know why. 

- Heartless debuting made me scared, but I'm relieved that it only held it's spot. 

- GEEZ! We finally have Theres Nothing Holdin' Me Back out of the top 20! I am soooo happy this. If it rebounds, it's going in yellow for SURE. 

- Logic rebounded, but can it hit the top 20 again. Sadly, probably not...

- And Castle On The Hill holds it at #19. Great! Just great...

- I'm surprised that Believer is still on here. Either way, I'm still enjoying this song a lot, and I don't mind it staying in the top 20 for a while.

- Love So Soft is slowly creeping into the top 10. Hopefully it won't do that, but I'm pretty sure it will do that.

- For the third week in a row, Bad At Love is at #8. Do I care? Not really, but maybe it's a bit too high. 

- Finally! Taylor Swift is in the top 5! Now she actually has a chance to hit #1, and I hope she does. Also, the music video for ...Ready For It? came out. Even though I don't understand the video, I still like the futuristic look!

- After a long time, we have a GOOD #1 song. I already knew this was going to be #1 from the Sirius XM website, and I was definitely happy with that! Hopefully, it can hold it's spot, or let Look What You Made Me Do replace it's spot.

#1 Song One Year Ago: Twenty One Pilots - Heathens (1st Of 2 Weeks)

Biggest Drop: Logic/Aleesia Cara/Khalid - Suicide Hotline (-16)

Biggest Jump: Charlie Puth - How Long (+17)

Entrants:

- 4 Ed songs. And of course, the two good ones have to be low, and the two mediocre ones have to be in the top 20. Anyways, I first thought that it was only good. However, now I have grown into it. It is a nice slow song you can dance to. Is it the best of the album? No, that would go to Shape Of You, but it is very solid. 

- This used to be really good, but I have grown out of this song A LOT. Reason? Two words. Nicki's vocals. I have come to the realization that her voice just doesn't fit in the song. Overall, Fergie is good but not Minaj

- Finally, our highest debut that everyone but me seems to LOVE. I'm guessing you want the reasons. Here y'all go. The instruments are too loud! I can barely hear the guys voice. In addition, his voice is not that good. Also, the song is really generic for it's genre. I can definitely see how people can like this song, and it's not a terrible song. There are just too many minor problems with this song, so it goes into the red territory. But, I can see myself growing into this, just not at this moment. 

Hitbound:

  • Lauv - I Like Me Better
  • Harry Styles - Kiwi (DEBUT)
  • Dua Lipa - New Rules
  • Macklemore/Kesha - Good Old Days (DEBUT)
  • X Ambassadors - Ahead Of Myself
  • Liam Payne - Bedroom Floor (DEBUT)
  • Zayn/Sia - Dusk Till Dawn
  • Imagine Dragons - Whatever It Takes (DEBUT)
  • Post Malone/21 Savage - rockstar
  • Niall Horan - Too Much To Ask
  • Bruno Mars - Chunky
  • The Shadowboxers - Hot Damn (DEBUT)
  • Bebe Rexha/Florida George Line - Meant To Be
  • Nick Jonas - Find You
  • [Exit]: Why Don't We - Something Different
  • [Exit]: PrettyMuch - Would You Mind
- Uhhhh! Harry why? I do not like his direction into music. In my opinion, I do not like him going into a 80's rock direction. He just does not sound good. Not surprised that I don't like this song.

- My recommendation is on here! I really like this song. Love Kesha's vocals, and Macklemore does a really nice job with his verses. Overall, a really good song. 

- Liam Payne litterally sounds the same as he was in Get Low. I don't want him to sound like that. He sounded much better in Strip That Down. Right now, it's decent. 

- Not Imagine Dragons best, but pretty solid. I don't know what else to say...

- Actually? First of all, WHAT IS HAPPENING? I don't even know. I actually don't know if I should put this in red or dark green. Dark green for now. 

Top 5:
1. Post Malone/21 Savage - rockstar
2. Macklemore/Kesha - Good Old Days
3. X Ambassadors - Ahead Of Myself
4. Lauv - I Like Me Better
5. Bruno Mars - Chunky

Dancing In The Blurb:

- Exits: Get Low deserved to leave, L.A. Devotee finally left, and not 3 months ago, and Fetish was underrated. NEXT!

- Suicide Hotline dropped. Why? Cause it's Hits1, and they underrate hit songs *cough* Despacito *cough*.

- Speaking of Despacito, why is it still here. This song was so last summer...

- Something Just Like This dropped out of the top 20. I think this is actually the end. I loved this song from the start and I still do. I'm just waiting for another Chainsmoker song...

- You know what other song dropped? Theres Nothing Holdin' Me Back! Now lets get it out of the top 20! 

- Taylor Swift is now back to her peak position. There are two possibilities for this song: 1. It will jump into the top 5, Maybe to #1. 2. It will fall back in the top 20, or stay at #9.

- Grew out of Save Me A Place a little bit...

- Who knew Feel It Still would be a hit! I'm fine with that

- This brings me to the #1 song. Besides Heartless, this is the other song that everyone but me likes. My problem, not #1 material. Seriously, Ed could do better.

Album Reviews #1 & #2: 1989 AND Memories...Do Not Open

Hey Guys! My first album review. I decided to do two albums, since I wanted to show my opinion on these albums especially. Well let's first go to 1989!

I am going to review the deluxe version, so anyways let's start!

Track 1: Welcome To New York
- For the first song of the album, it's really good. Love the little introduction, which starts off the album really nice. Overall, a really good start for the album, and a nice anthem.
Score: 9.5/10


Track 2: Blank Space
- Taylor's best song, hands down. If anyone can write a really good romantic song, it's Taylor Swift. Her voice fits so nice into this song. Being the second single, it should have been the first. The last verse is my favorite part, and the pen-click is nice. Overall, Taylor's best song yet. 
Score: 10/10


Track 3: Style
- Being the third single, I think it's the second to last weakest out of all her single from this album. At first, I really wasn't sure of this song. Then, it did grow on me, but not so much that this can be in my top 10 songs of 2015. However, it is a very good, and the chant "Out of style" is really nice. 
Score: 9/10


Track 4: Out Of The Woods
- This is the weakest out of all the singles in the album. But this does not make this a bad song. I can say that this is pretty close to being as good as Style. Love the chorus, being my favorite part of the song. Overall, a really nice song. 
Score: 9/10


Track 5: All You Had To Do Was Stay
- Now that I read the title now, it makes me think of Stay by Zedd. Anyways,I feel like she doesn't show off her full capability in this song. However, the song is really good, and the "Stay" part she kinda screams is surprisingly not annoying.
Score: 8.5/10


Track 6: Shake It Off
- Ahhh, the first single of his album. People were making parody's of this song left and right. Heck, even my 5th grade class made a parody for EDUCATIONAL purposes. It's incredible. And surprisingly, I never got sick of it. Yeah, I think it is a very good song, and a nice choice. 
Score: 10/10


Track 7: I Wish You Would
- My main problem with this song, is that the chorus goes by goes quickly. By the half way point it already feels like the song is already on the final verse. In addition, it's too repetitive, and I mean WAY too repetitive. Other than that, a pretty good song. 
Score: 7.5/10



Track 8: Bad Blood (ft. Kendrick Lamar)
- Love the lyrics! I don't know why, but I have this urge to say "Love those words". The words just fits so well with her attitude in this song. And yes, I like the Kendrick Lamar version better. He puts the right personality in the song. My favorite part is when she says "Band-aids don't fix bullet holes". It just feels so satisfying when I hear that. Overall, a well made song. 
Score: 10/10


Track 9: Wildest Dreams
- This song brings back so many memories (not going to share them). Again, if anyone can make a romantic song it's Taylor Swift. When I first heard the album, I thought it was the best song off the album. Well, it's not that it got worse, it's that Blank Space got better. Overall, really good.
Score: 10/10


Track 10: How You Get The Girl
- This is a really good song. However, I don't see anything that stands out. Everything might be good, but it just sounds so generic. The chorus I guess brings more excitement into the song. Not bad, but solid. 
Score: 8/10


Track 11: This Love
- this song is so quiet...Anyways, nothing exciting. This is the problem, the build-up seems to be going into the direction of a pretty big and loud chorus. Nope, same pitch, but louder background music. This is not what I wanted. However, her voice fits the lyrics which is nice.
Score: 5.5/10


Track 12: I Know Places
- After that quiet disaster, we have a little bit of a louder song. Love her compassion! Again, the voice is just really nice in this song. She really shows her power in the song, especially in the last verse. Amazing song all together.
Score: 9.5/10


Track 13: Clean
- Like the beat in this song. The chorus is the best part of this part. The second part is definitely the pre-chorus. Overall, a nice song, and Taylor pulls it off again.
Score: 9.5/10


Track 14: Wonderland
- the moment I heard "rabbit" in the song, I knew this song was an Alice And Wonderland reference. Now this is Taylor I want. The last three songs weren't that loud, but this is the Taylor that everyone knows. I was so happy when I heard a loud song finally. An amazing song too wake us up.
Score: 10/10

Track 15: You Are My Love
- A nice slow dance song. Love the build-up, and the short lines fit nicely in the song. This is a nice edition in the album. Taylor, do this kind of slow music, not This Love.
Score: 9.5/10


Track 16: New Romantics
- Not but not least, New Romantics. I already kinda explained this in my top 10 songs of 2016 but i can say it again. Again, the voice fits in the song very well. She literally can manipulate her voice in any way. Best extra song in the 1989 album.
Score: 10/10

Rankdown!:
1. Blank Space
2. Bad Blood (ft. Kendrick Lamar)
3. Wildest Dreams
4. New Romantics
5. Wonderland
6. Shake It Off
7. Welcome To New York
8. You Are My Love
9. Clean
10. I Know Places
11. Style
12. Out Of The Woods
13. All You Had To Do Was Stay
14. How You Get The Girl
15. I Wish You Would
16. This Love


Thoughts: If i'm going to honest, I was expecting this. Almost all the songs are really good. This is a definite contender for best album of the decade. Making 16 pretty good songs is hard to do. Taylor pretty much only screwed up on one of the songs. Taylor has done something that few people can do. I already am ready for her new album, Reputation.

Total Score: 145.5/160 = 90.93% (A-)
My Score: 10/10
_________________________________________________________________________________

Now we move on to Memories...Do Not Open. This album has a lot more songs than Collage EP. Lets start! Now The Chainsmokers are different than Taylor Swift so I expect to see a difference in music. 

Track 1: The One
- For the start of the album, I love it! It is very catchy and the EDM is nice towards the end of this song. Taggart does really well with the vocals, and definitely has improved. 
Score: 9.5/10


Track 2: Break Up Every Night
- Very catchy. I really like the fast paced beat and once again, Taggart shows off his improved voice. The second chorus where it gets louder is my favorite part. Overall, a really catchy song. 
Score: 9/10

Track 3: Bloodstream
- For The Chainsmokers to put up a song like this, you would think they would do a bad job, but I was WRONG. I don't even know why I love this song so much. I really love the beat and the pre-chorus is definitely my favorite. Taggart's vocals are probably the best in this song than any other song. Well done for proving me wrong Chainsmokers. 
Score: 10/10


Track 4: Don't Say (ft. Emily Warren)
- The Chainsmokers must like Emily Warren a lot, because she is in three songs! Out of the three songs she is in, she demonstrates what she is capable of the least in this song. The song is not bad, it's just that she could have done a little better. Just as a side note, that outro though. Qualms...
Score: 8.5/10


Track 5: Something Just Like This (ft. Coldplay)
- Well, you already know my opinion on this. It was my favorite song on the weekend countdown for 16 weeks! When I first heard this song, I knew it was going to be good after Closer. And sure enough I was right! Coldplay was definitely the right choice for this song. I really can't think of anyone else who can replace them in this song. The lyrics are mostly about fairy tales, superheroes, and myths, which I am fine with. Overall, best song off the album, and second best song from The Chainsmokers. 
Score: 10/10


Track 6: My Type (ft. Emily Warren)
- Second song from Emily Warren, and she definitely shows her capability in this song. She really shows her voice really well. I really like the song in general, especially the chorus.
Score: 9.5/10


Track 7: It Won't Kill Ya (ft. Louane)
- A good song. Apperantely Louane is a French singer, and she sounds really good. The song in general is good except for one part, the drop. I'm sorry, but the saying something in the middle of the drop is just not cool. 
Score: 9/10


Track 8: Paris
- Even though Emily Warren is not credited in Paris, she is in it. The Chainsmokers first single off this album, and surprisingly, it just gets better. I am dead serious. At first I thought it was great, but now it is really amazing. Emily Warren does a nice job as background vocals. Overall, a nice song to put as a single.
Score: 10/10


Track 9: Honest
- Not a strong single to put out. There were definitely other and better options. However, a nice song overall. The beginning speech from Taggart was nice. I have two big problem with this song. First is Taggart's vocals. just not as good as other songs. Second is the "woah" part in the beginning and after the second chorus. This has declined since the last time I heard this song. 
Score: 8/10

Track 10: Wake Up Alone (ft. Jhene Aiko)
- The whole song is only good in everything until the last chorus. That last chorus is amazing. It's sad that the rest of the song is only decent. This would have been a 6/10 if it weren't for the last chorus. 
Score: 7.5/10

Track 11: Young
- Love the meaning. I was expecting this to be their third single. This would have been MUCH better than Honest. I just love every aspect of this song, and the drop is really good. Overall, a really good song. 
Score: 10/10

Track 12: Last Day Alive (ft. Florida George Line)
- Now, when I saw that Florida George Line was in this, I thought it was going to be bad. Well, its decent but it's decent NOT because of Florida George Line. They are actually okay. The problem is too much repetition. All I can rememebr about this song is Florida George Line saying "Now or never" or "The last day alive". 
Score: 7/10

Rankdown!:
1. Something Just Like This (ft. Coldplay)
2. Young
3. Paris
4. Bloodstream
5. My Type (ft. Emily Warren)
6. The One
7. Break Up Every Night
8. It Won't Kill Ya (ft. Louane)
9. Don't Say (ft. Emily Warren)
10. Honest
11. Wake Up Alone (ft. Jhene Aiko)
12. Last Day Alive (ft. Florida George Line)

Thoughts: So far, the best album of 2017. Usually, dance/electronic albums will be better than Pop since dance has those sick drops, and Pop has mostly vocals. The Chainsmokers best album. really good. 

Total Score: 108/120 = 90% (A-)
My Score: 10/10
_________________________________________________________________________________

So there you go! two really good albums from my favorite two artists. I hope you liked it.




See ya on the next countdown...

Ed Sheeran (1) - October 14, 2017

Hey Guys! If you have not checked out my 1K Pageview special, I highly suggest you check it out. Another bad week! People seem to be happy, but I feel like I am the only person who thinks Galway Girl is not as good of a song. Plus, we have some top 20 entrances that are not as good. Here is the lonely exit today...

Biggest Drop: The All-American Rejects - Sweat (-15)

Biggest Jump: Hailee Steinfeld/Aleeso/Florida George Line - Let Me Go (+14)

Entrant:

- I have grown into the part which I don't like. However, this is literally just like Attention. Same production, same vocals. I can easily see myself being bored of this song. For now, it's pretty solid.

Hitbound:


  • Why Don't We - Something Different
  • Bruno Mars - Chunky (DEBUT)
  • Evaride - Heartless
  • Niall Horan - Too Much To Ask
  • PRETTYMUCH - Would You Mind
  • Bebe Rexha/Florida George Line - Meant To Be
  • Ed Sheeran - Perfect
  • Nick Jonas - Find You
  • Post Malone/21 Savage - rockstar
  • Dua Lipa - New Rules
  • X Ambassadors - Ahead Of Myself
  • Zayn/Sia - Dusk Till Dawn
  • Lauv - I Like Me Better
  • Fergie/Nicki Minaj - You Already Know
- I am sick of Bruno Mars. This is literally like 24K Magic. I can see myself getting sick of this song, if it debuts. 

- I have grown into Perfect, because of the lyrics, and vocals. 

Top 5:
1. 
Post Malone/21 Savage - rockstar
2. Ed Sheeran - Perfect
3. X Ambassadors - Ahead Of Myself
4. Lauv - I Like Me Better
5. Zayn/Sia - Dusk Till Dawn

How Long Has This Been Blurbin':


- I really don't care about Hoodie, or any Hey Violet song at this point. They are all just decent. 

- Attention fell like more than 30 spots the last 3 Weeks! That's rough...

- Sweat has the biggest jump! I am very happy about this...

- Why is Two Ghosts even on this countdown? This song is not even good. 

- A lot of songs got demoted, just because all of them either I grown out of, or I am getting sick of the song. 

- All of the last weeks debuts dropped, except for Let Me Go, because it's Hailee Steinfeld. 

- Not surprised about the drop from Taylor. maybe a bounce back can happen?

- I'm done. This is not even funny. The moment I think its over, it JUMPS 10 SPOTS. Who is voting for this song? Pretty much everyone in the blogging community hates this song. The why is it jumping? Man, I don't understand this stuff. 

- Love So Soft is probably going to stick in the top 20 for a few more weeks. I'm prepared. 

- What happened to Taylor Swift's respect on this countdown. Usually, if a Taylor Swift song debuts, it goes all the way to the #1 spot. But no, they can't do that because she is in a waiting list. Ed Sheeran and Shawn Mendes obviously have to go first and have to have all their songs hit #1. And I mean ALL, even though some make no sense at all. Oh, and don't forget ONE DIRECTION. Even though they have gone in their own directions, Let them have the #1 spot BEFORE Taylor Swift. Oh, and lets not forget that we have to have a order. Liam Payne first, then Niall Horan. But who gives a damn about Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson. Zayn can do whatever he wants. Yup...

- This is the first time since its debut that Something Just Like This is not my in my top 5. I'm being honest, it might rebound. Praying is also not in my top 5. These two songs definitely have a chance in my top 10 songs of 2017. 

- After I don't know how long, Theres Nothing Holdin' Me Back is OUT of the top 5. Now I will probably have to deal with this song being in the top 20 for a while. How do I know this? Just look at Something Just Like This!

- I have grown into Bad At Love. The chorus is just so good, and Halsey's voice is amazing.

- I have also grown into Thunder once again. The repetition of the word "thunder" and then the pounding is just so satisfying. Now I can say that this might be better than Believer. This might even do better than Believer on this, and other countdowns based on its position right now. 

- Now we move on to our #1. Ed's fifth and worst #1 on this countdown. I'm not saying that this song is bad, it's just that I don't think it should be this high on the countdown.
