Someone already commented this in the previous post, but for those who haven't seen it yet should check out loser.com. My brother showed me that link and I honestly was laughing because of how true it is. Whoever did that should get a medal for cleverness.

New Entrants
~ Meghan Trainor hosted the countdown (and Hit-Bound) this week. I wonder if that has anything to do with her song debuting the countdown. Those of you who have been here in 2014 know how much I hated All About That Bass to the point where it was the #1 worst song of the 2014. Lips Are Movin' was good for a while, but got uninteresting relatively quickly. Dear Future Husband stuck with me longer making it her first song that I actually enjoyed. Then Like I'm Gonna Lose You was extremely boring and I did not like it at all. No is pretty hard to resist. It's really catchy. Her vocals actually aren't awfully out of place and annoying. The lyrical content is a little questionable (like it was with Dear Future Husband), which is why I don't love it. But I like the production on the track. Hopefully, her new album will actually be decent enough to the point where I can actually listen to it.

El Blurbs
~ Shawn Mendes/Camila Cabello – I Know What You Did Last Summer is really locked on to that #10 spot. I believe this is its fourth or fifth consecutive week holding.

~ Disclosure/Lorde – Magnets was destined to decline at some point. I still enjoy it though.

~ Ellie Goulding – Something In The Way You Move made a really nice jump into the Top 10. I'm really happy about that. Now Top 5? Maybe?

~ Along with Something In The Way You Move, we have other Top 10 entrants from two extremely boring songs that I just can't stand. Can we not vote for them?

~ In the Top 10, we have three good songs, five songs that are extremely annoying, one that is about to be extremely annoying, and one that is mediocre at best. Things are not looking good.

~ Troye Sivan – Youth finally made that well-deserved jump. Nice to see it get some love.

~ On the other hand, the massive jump from Rihanna/Drake – Work was not appreciated. I still find this song extremely annoying. I can't believe this piece of trash has been #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks.

~ Once upon a time, we had three Taylor Swift songs all ten spots apart from each other. One of them is really old and annoying. Another is still pretty good and I'm annoyed it's the one song from 1989 that didn't hit #1. And the last one made a floppy second-week jump like a lot of songs are doing nowadays.

~ I feel like this is the end of the journey for Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats – S.O.B.. You're still a song I can laugh at just from the lyrical content.

~ Justin Bieber – Love Yourself clearly didn't last long in the Top 5. Can we possibly get it back up there? That would be appreciated.

~ I'm not even going to comment on One Direction – Drag Me Down's jump back to #2.

~ The Hit 45 Chart for this week is out! Find out if Ellie Goulding can hold at #1 for a second week in a row with Something In The Way You Move.
