Hi everyone, and welcome to Hits 1's top 30 of 2021. This is so crappy, I don't even know where to start. But I guess lets get into it. (By the way I know this is so late but I literally has no motivation to get it done so here we are)

#2 - Monsters - All Time Low/Demi Lovato/blackbear (29 weeks)(4 weeks at #1)
#1 - Therefore I Am - Billie Eilish (23 weeks)(#3)

So yeah, there it is. I'll be diving into why it's so bad in a bit, but first here's a rankdown.

0 - Awful
#30 - Heat Waves - Glass Animals
#29 - Saturday - Twenty One Pilots

1 - Bad
#28 - Leave Before You Love Me - Marshmello/Jonas Brothers

2 - Mediocre
#27 - 90s Kids - Jax

3 - Decent
#26 - Therefore I Am - Billie Eilish
#25 - We're Good - Dua Lipa

4 - Good
#24 - Save Your Tears - The Weeknd
#23 - my ex's best friend - Machine Gun Kelly/Blackbear
#22 - Golden - Harry Styles
#21 - pov - Ariana Grande
#20 - positions - Ariana Grande
#19 - Love Again - Dua Lipa
#18 - STAY - The Kid LAROI/Justin Bieber
#17 - you broke me first - Tate McRae

5 - Great
#16 -  Forget Me Too - Machine Gun Kelly/Halsey
#15 - Bad Habits - Ed Sheeran
#14 - Kiss Me More - Doja Cat/SZA
#13 - Willow - Taylor Swift
#12 - Leave The Door Open - Silk Sonic
#11 - MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) - Lil Nas X
#10 - Industry Baby - Lil Nas X/Jack Harlow
#9 - Without You - The Kid LAROI
#8 - Monsters - All Time Low/Demi Lovato/blackbear
#7 - Butter - BTS
#6 - Way Less Sad - AJR
#5 - deja vu - Olivia Rodrigo
#4 - Good 4 U - Olivia Rodrigo
#3 - Astronaut In The Ocean - Masked Wolf
#2 - Levitating - Dua Lipa
#1 - drivers license - Olivia Rodrigo

Overall Score - 80.6% - B-

So you may be wondering, what's so bad about it? After all, the rankdown went surprisingly well. Buuuut, the placement of many of these songs is WAY off. Lets start out with the obvious, Good 4 U by Olivia Rodrigo. Without factoring in airplay, this song is WAY above anything else on this list, with 9 weeks at #1 and a tenure of 22 weeks. Factor IN airplay, and Good 4 U only separates itself more, being the third most played song this year behind Heat Waves and Therefore I Am. Which brings me to my next point. WHY IS THEREFORE I AM NUMBER ONE?!?!?!? It was #1 in airplay, but it never hit #1 on the countdown and was only on for 23 weeks. That doesnt spell #1 to me. Next, why is Save Your Tears so low? Kiss Me More, MONTERO, and Forget Me Too all spent less than twenty weeks on the countdown and peaked at the same place or lower as Save Your Tears, and yet they placed 15 spots higher with about 5 less weeks???????? GOD sometimes I hate Hits 1. Why is Butter here? Like, great song, but it only spent 12 weeks on the countdown. They couldn't have included an amazing song like You that actually made an impact on the countdown? No, certainly not. The only things that make (almost) complete sense are the top 5 and the bottom 5. Hits 1 actually picked correct songs to go here (besides Butter and Save Your Tears) so I give them credit there.

Anyways, thank yall for reading. What are your opinions on this rankdown? I'm really curious, so let me know and see you soon.

Album Review: I Used to Think I Could Fly - Tate McRae

 Hello everyone and welcome to my official return to blogging! And no more special of a return post than a review of Tate's debut album, right? First up some background and then I won't waste any more time. I became a Tate fanatic around 5 months after You came out. I didn't really enjoy you broke me first, and so I never really payed attention to any of her other songs. Until, You started to rise on Hits 1, and I started hearing it more and more, and started liking it more and more. It quickly became my favorite song, and so I listened to some other songs by the artists featured on there. Regard has some nice ones, but Troye Sivan isn't the best and You is the only great track from him. But Tate, I fell in love with. I became obsessed with songs like Stupid, Lie to Me, and best of all, Slower. And now, a few months later, we're at her debut album! Lets get started! Our first song is called Don't Come Back, and what an opener it is. The production is just beauti...
