Biggest Jump - Oh My God - Adele (+8) - I'm really happy that this song has jumped this high. Hopefully it can climb even more soon.

Biggest Drop - Traitor - Olivia Rodrigo (-7) - Well, this song had a pretty good run, so I'm not too sad to see it go. I wish it could have hit #1 and kept Olivia's perfect countdown #1 streak alive.

So this week we have a few new HitBound songs to review, kicking off with Sacrifice from The Weeknd. I had high hopes for this song and the Dawn FM album in general, but I'm not sure that it quite delivered. He sounds good here and the production is ok, but nothing makes it stand out. 

Nest up we have another (!) Ed Sheeran song on Hits 1, this time teaming up with Fireboy DML for this song, Peru. I don't really enjoy this song a lot, because no one sounds good and the production is lame and underwhelming.

Returning to HitBound we have Doja Cat with Woman. I absolutely LOVE the production on this, but the chorus, while catchy, is really annoying, and the verses are bland. Doja doesn't sound good throughout the song and with a better singer this song could be fire.

The fourth new HitBound debut comes from Gryffin, Jason Ross, and Calle Lehmann, called After You. I enjoy this song a lot. I think the production is really good and everyone singing sounds good. Hopefully this sticks around for a while. 

And finally, we have Imagine Dragons with a new song titled Enemy. There is a version with JID but Hits 1 didn't include that verse for some reason. Anyways, this song has pretty good production, but the vocals are awful and don't really make me want to give it a re-listen.

This week we lost Crisis and Hands on You. I really enjoyed Hands on You and am sad to see it go, but I won'd miss Crisis at all and am glad it got replaced by stuff thats better.

When you're closer, blurbin' me the shivers

As you may have noticed, abcdefu took over I feel good as my #1 song this week. This was nothine a combination of I Feel Good getting old and abcdefu being amazing.

Why did U Gurl have to jump? Ugh. 

Finally, Do it to It is out of the bottom 5. That took a while. 

How is STAY still here? Songs almost never hang around in the bottom 5.

That'll be oit for this week everyone, thanks for reading and see you next time.
