Biggest DROP!!!... Of The Week: MisterWives – Reflections (–18)

Biggest Jump Of The Week: Vance Joy – Riptide (+11)

New Entrants
~ We'll go in order from worst to best entrant. It just so happens our worst entrant is the re-entrant from Magic! – Rude. This song needs to leave forever. Never to be heard again. Let Your Hair Down needs to debut.

~ Next we have the highest debut of the week, Meghan Trainor – Lips Are Movin'. I'll be nice and say this isn't awful. It's a decent step forward for Meghan Trainor. If she can keep improving from here, I'll be happy.

~ Mary J. Blige – Therapy debuted and it's actually alright. I really liked Right Now better. But whatever. I can make it with this.

~ The best entrant this week Charli XCX – Break The Rules. It's really catchy and even though it doesn't set a good example for kids, it doesn't matter because this is a really fun song to jam out to.

Break The Blurbs
~ I thank Hits 1 for getting rid of two huge pieces of trash this week. Since they both debuted on the same week, they were both tied for the oldest song on the countdown. The new oldest song is Magic! – Rude because it re-entered. But aside from that, the second oldest song that isn't a re-entrant is Ariana Grande – Problem.

~ How did Katy Perry – This Is How We Do move up??? That song did not play once this week. Fergie – L.A. Love also didn't get any airplay. I seriously thought they would both leave.

~ F**king Trumpets and Amnesia need to leave!!!!!!!!!! They will both be in orange when All About That Bass and Rude leave!!!

~ I'm surprised a song like MisterWives – Reflections was able to hold off longer than Gwen Stefani – Baby Don't Lie. Goodbye Baby Don't Lie. You will be missed. Hopefully, Reflections will leave soon.

~ I'd like to thank Hits 1 again for having Calvin Harris/John Newman – Blame jump a decent number of spots.

~ Clean Bandit/Jess Glynne – Rather Be is on the verge of becoming red like the songs around it. Let's not let that happen and have it leave the countdown (very) soon.

~ The Vamps/Demi Lovato – Somebody To You is really hanging on up there. I'm not complaining.

~ Meghan Trainor – Lips Are Movin' had the highest debut we've had in a while. As far as I can recall, the last debut higher than #20 besides this song was Taylor Swift/Ed Sheeran – Everything Has Changed at #17.

~ When we all thought Nick Jonas – Jealous would leave, it jumps back into the high 20's.

~ I would be okay if Big Data/Joywave – Dangerous doesn't jump any higher than this.

~ I wanted Hits 1 to put Andy Grammer – Back Home on this countdown. They didn't unfortunately, but they did just add Andy Grammer – Honey I'm Good to Hit-Bound. It's not as good as Back Home. But it's still good.

~ Let's see how the Top 5 is looking. We got two Taylor Swift songs, a song that won't hit #1 at this point, and two songs from artists who have a #1 streak for their songs.

~ As for the year-end voting for Your End Of The Year Top 45, I have A LOT of votes! Thanks guys. This'll make the countdown interesting. I'm not gonna lie, but someone did vote for "poop". That is not a song, so whoever entered that, your answer has been disqualified unless you can make a song called "poop" and get it on to the Weekend Countdown before Christmas. But thanks guys for the votes!

~ Best Song On Jenna Marbles' #YouTube15: Band Aid 30 – Do They Know It's Christmas?

~ #1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Robert DeLong – Long Way Down
