Making its way out of the abyss after a couple months, and replacing himself, is Jelly Roll with I Am Not Okay. This is a pretty great song. Jelly sounds good, and the production is great. I'm surprised this is just now debuting, as I thought its relevance died a couple months ago, but whatever.

Katy Perry is back with Doechii, and hopefully back for more than just a week, with I'M HIS, HE'S MINE. I love this one. Both of their voices sound great, and the production is amazing. This is getting pushed to CHR/Pop, so I hope this actually does something, as it's way better than WOMAN'S WORLD.

Wow, all three of the debuts this week are coming out of the abyss! I don't remember that happening too often. JOYRIDE is finally back, and deservingly so. I love this one. The production is so fun, and Kesha sounds great. Hopefully this at least gets to the top 15.

Hit-Bound
Damiano David/Labrinth - Silverlines (2)
Dasha - Bye Bye Bye (4)
Knox - Invisible (4)
Coldplay/Ayra Starr - GOOD FEELiNGS (Debut)
LISA - Moonlit Floor (Debut)
Nightly - every part (2)
Ava Max - Spot A Fake (3)
Kylie Minogue - Lights Camera Action (2)
Henry Moodie - good old days (2)
Teddy Swims - Bad Dreams (4)
Balu Brigada - So Cold (2)
Jon Bellion - KID AGAIN (2)
Alex Warren - Burning Down (3)
Myles Smith - Wait for You (6)
Natalie Jane - Somebody to Someone (I Just Wanna Fall in Love) (4)
Morgan Wallen/ERNEST - Cowgirls (2)

Only 2 debuts this week! First up is Coldplay with Ayra Starr, and they're here with GOOD FEELiNGS. This one is so good. The production is amazing, and both of them sound great. I have a feeling this will debut, and I really hope I'm right.

LISA is back after Rockstar sadly flopped with Moonlit Floor. This one is pretty good. LISA sounds good and the production is pretty good. I don't see this doing much, but I wouldn't mind if it did.

Exits:
Camila Cabello - GODSPEED (4)
Alex Warren - Catch My Breath (1)

I really wish GODSPEED debuted, and I can't even remember what Catch My Breath sounds likes.

Notes:
- We lost Please Please Please, Lonely Road, and The Emptiness Machine. RIP to The Emptiness Machine, but I called it. Lonely Road was just okay, and Please Please Please ties Satellite for the highest exit on the countdown.
- Why'd Criminals fall?
- Hopefully Diet Pepsi jumps more next week.
- A Bar Song (Tipsy) fell 19 spots? I mean I saw it coming, but not THAT much. I think that's the biggest drop since Monsters fell 20 spots.
- Looks like Belong Together might be the next Make You Mine.
- Okay looks like both Tate and The Weeknd are going to succeed thankfully.
- Glad Apple rebounded, even if it's just a bit.
- WE PRAY and Ego finally made the top 15!!
- Die With A Smile finally started doing something!
- Uhhhh why'd Good Luck, Babe! die so hard? I was expecting a new #1, but not it completely leaving the top 5.
- How come 60% of the top 5 was switched up, but ICDIWABH still held?
- Didn't expect Stargazing to get so high, but I'm not complaining.
- Glad Taste is finally going now that PPP is gone.
- HOT TO GO! IS NUMBER ONE?? I'm glad Chappell seems to be a favorite artist of Hits 1. I think this is the first time since Olivia Rodrigo (deja vu and good 4 u) where someone replaced themselves at number one.

Well, that's it everyone! Thanks for stopping by, and I'll see you guys next time.

  1. January 13th earlier this year we actually had six debuts that were all from out of the abyss. Also I'm pretty sure when Olivia Rodrigo replaced herself at #1 it was deja vu with good for u
