Niall Horan (3) - New Entrants

Hey guys, master is back. Here are the entrants for this week that I’ll recap:

• Kelly Clarkson - Love So Soft (#32)
• Zedd/Liam Payne - Get Low (#29)
• The Revivalists - Wish I Knew You (#28)
• Sam Smith - Too Good at Goodbyes (#23)

They are all pretty close, being less than 10 spots away from each other.

Love So Soft

Kelly Clarkson returns with Love So Soft. I really don’t have much of an opinion on this song, to be honest. Like I said in the HitBound review on 9/9, this reminds me of Hey Hey Hallelujah. I’ll take some repeated listens and come back to tell you all what I think.

Get Low

Zedd debuts with his and 1D member Liam Payne’s second song on the countdown right now, Get Low. I definitely find this better than both of their songs on the countdown currently *cough* Strip That Down *cough*. I like the production, and I can thank Zedd. Liam Payne’s vocals are okay, I guess. I really don’t give a f**k about the lyrical content. This is in green at the moment, but could possibly turn pink, or even blue.

Wish I Knew You

Being the best debut of the week, we have The Revivalists with Wish I Knew You. This was released in 2015, so it’s strange it would debut just now. I really like the singer’s vocals. The production is really cool, too. The lyrics are also really nice, which are about wishing that you knew someone when you and them were young. Overall, this is a fun and catchy song, and I hope this has success.

Too Good at Goodbyes

It’s been a while since Sam Smith was last hit the stage. Now, he returns with Too Good at Goodbyes. That lyric, “I’m never gonna let you close to me, even if you mean the most to me” just got stuck in my head. This isn’t as good as Stay With Me or Like I Can, but this is definitely better than the decent I’m Not The Only One and Latch. I don’t love this as much as I used to, but it’s still really good. I hope this does well.

And there ya have it! Now, I’ll rate these out of 20.

Love So Soft: N/A (Dark Green)

Wish I Knew You: 19/20 (Dark Blue)

Get Low: 13/20 (Green/Pink)

Too Good at Goodbyes: 15/20 (Green)

Blurbs and HitBound will come tomorrow. Be patient, guys. Thanks for the notice.
