Sorry for the late delay. But better late then never! Here is the HitBound list this week:
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 **** (DEBUT)
Bebe Rexha/Florida Georgia Line - Meant to Be
Nick Jonas - Find You
~ We have quite a bit of a shake-up this week on HitBound. To start off, we lost both Something Different and Would You Mind. The former, the kids who can’t sing actually kind of impressed me on this but ultimately, I don’t really care. The latter, though? I do care about this. I was hoping it could debut on the countdown, but it just wasn’t meant to be (no Bebe Rexha reference), sadly.
~ Kicking off the entrants with Harry Styles - Kiwi. With this, we probably already know Two Ghosts is gonna flop. This definitely has a fun 80s rock vibe. I love the vocals and production on this too. I’ll talk more about this should it debut.
~ Skippin’ over Good Old Days, you ask? I’m saving best for last. With Strip That Down and Get Low really not into many, if not, then everyone’s likings, I don’t really think many were looking forward to Bedroom Floor. And to say best, it’s actually decent for the most part. The lyrics may be questionable, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad per se. The vocals are pretty good and the production is nice. The chorus is kinda awkward, but the song is still good.
~ I haven’t been able to hear Whatever it Takes yet.
~ Second to last, we have newcomers The Shadowboxers with Hot ****. The vocals are good on this. The production is good too. I don’t really have much to say on this.
~ Will talk about Good Old Days later.

Good! More trash on YT15! *cough* He Like That *cough* I won’t waste anymore time on you.
Feels Great may not be as good as No Promises, but it is a nice listen.
Finally, we have the return of an EDM artist, the return of the featured guy in Wake me Up by Avicii, AND an EDM newcomer. Those three artists are........ Tiësto, Stargate, and Aloe Blacc. This is a new song called Carry You Home. Now, this is not as good as All of Me, Waterfall (by P!NK and Sia for your information), or even Wake Me Up. It’s a tough call for Carry You Home and Wake Me Up. But nevertheless, it’s an amazing song. I’ll talk more about this should it debut Hits 1.

Nice job! I would honestly prefer Feels Great over No Promises.
ReplyDeleteThoughts On Hit-Bound Entrants:
Harry Styles - Kiwi: Really more upbeat then the predecessors. Really like the song.
Imagine Dragons - Whatever It takes: It is very solid. Very more lively then Thunder (Still prefer Thunder though)
Macklemore/Kesha - Good Old Days: Very nice and I want it to debut soon.
The Shadowboxers - Hot Damn: Reminds me a lot about The 1975 - The Sound. it is very nice to listen to and it has had a good amount of airplay this week. (not enough to debut though)
Liam Payne - Bedroom Floor: WAY better than Strip That Down.
Exits:
PRETTYMUCH - Would You Mind: I prefer Teacher over this but it still was saddening to see this go.
Why Don´t We - Something Different: This is my favorite song from the group. People say the chorus is repetitive. I don´t think so but I understand. I lost all interest for These Girls and Invitation is only decent.
#1 Recommendation for Hits 1: Dani & Lizzy - Dancing in the Sky
