- Overall, pretty good Hitbound Dropouts. Although it is sad that those songs never debuted the countdown, one of them gets the 2017 Lights Over Paris Hitbound Hero Award! This award is for the best Hit-Bound Dropout. The award goes to a song that I really liked and if it debuted the countdown, it would've been in my top 10 of 2017. I was really angry when it left. Here it is I guess...

Shortest Tenured Song: Kehlani/G-Eazy - Good Life (1 Week)

Longest Tenured Songs: Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You (50 Weeks) [present on countdown]

I also want to give recognition to the highest debuted song of the year. You all know what song it is...

Highest Debuted Song Of 2017: Taylor Swift - Look What You Made Me Do (#13) [TIED for All-Time Record]

Now for the last award. Biggest Whiff Of The Year. The award goes to a song that was a big hit, but failed to even debut Hit-Bound! Everyone is probably thinking of Humble. , but I want to do something different. Hits1 definitely does not appreciate Hip-Out songs, which is really sad. Even if they debut the countdown, they fail. So I'm going to give this award to a song that was on the Youtube15, but was blocked by songs that no one know and had less than 50K views. This song had 600 Million view! You know that this song is a whiff. Here it is. 

Biggest Whiff Of The Year Award: French Montana/Swae Lee - Unforgettable

There it is! Sorry if this is late. Next will be my Top 45 Songs Of 2017 which should be out by this weekend. Stay tuned and Happy Late New Year!
