Blurbs (10/28/2017)

Save Me A Blurb Next To You, Yeah..... (worst title ever)
~ Starting with the exits — wait, there are no exits.

~ Zoinks. Rain just fell to where it was two weeks ago. Unfortunate if you ask me. Remember that The Script was pretty successful back in their days on radio charts. That doesn't just need to end all of a sudden.

~ And OF COURSE (sarcastically), Heartless held its debut spot. Ridiculous. This needs to do successful. If Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass can do well, this can, considering these guys (switching the title of a Why Don’t We song) are way better.

~ Fun fact from Dylan, I believe: Shape of You and Perfect, Two Ed Sheeran songs, switched places (#39 and #30). The former looks as if it’s on its last legs, and the latter seems like it’ll be here for a while.

~ Despacito needs to LEAVE!!! We get it, everybody likes Latin music! But can you PLEASE just SHUT UP, Daddy Yankee?!?! Now let’s get some GOOD QUALITY MUSIC on Hits 1, PLEASE!!!

~ Another zoinks. There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back was at #9 two weeks ago, now it’s out of the Top 20. Out of the Top 25 too. It would be nice if this could hold out because I still love this. If it leaves soon though, don’t worry you diehard Shawn Mendes fans, he is releasing a new album soon. I wonder if people will like it as opposed to Illuminate though, which was quite hated by many critics on YouTube and iTunes.

~ 1-800-273-8255 jumped quite a bit. Pretty much to the point where it’s like the huge drop last week never happened. Could it go back into the Top 20, Maybe even crack the Top 10? I don’t think so unfortunately.

~ Save Me A Place and No Promises had quite tumbles this week. For the former, it NEEDS to regain because it debuted radio charts last week, but for the latter, I don’t really care which way it goes.

~ Havana and One More Light both had quite rocket boosts. For the former, I wouldn’t mind if it did good, but at the same time I wouldn’t care if it flopped. For the latter, however, this is kinda irrelevant for the countdown because of the fact Chester died 4 or 5 months ago. But I’ll allow it.

~ I’m not very surprised by the jump from ...Ready for It? considering the fact that the video was released on Thursday. I watched it, and it’s actually really good. I bet some other pop mainstream artists are jealous of the editing and just the video in general. Basically, the old Taylor is creating the new, but the new one kills the old Taylor.

~ Halloweekend Countdown? Scary things are supposed to happen. I know one scary thing that happened: Love So Soft is at #11. This is getting ridiculous. Just go down already and stop bothering the heck out of us.

~ Finally, we have come to our #1, THUNDER! ⚡️🌪⚡️🌩🌩⛈ Definitely happy by this! Stay up there as long as you want!
