Weekend Countdown March 8-9, 2014!

As you guys know I don't post the countdown, I just give my overall thoughts. This week we are saying goodbye 5 songs! All of them needed to go but one (Brave- Sara Bareilles). Here are the songs that left this week!


  • Applause- Lady Gaga
  • Brave- Sara Bareilles
  • I Need Your Love- Calvin Harris ft. Ellie Goulding
  • Love Me Again- John Newman
  • Chocolate- The 1975
Debuts:
  • This Is What It Feels Like- Armin van Buuren ft. Trevor Guthrie
    • Yeah, I know this isn't a debut, its back on the countdown for a 3rd time! I hate re-entries! Go away Armin van Buuren! 
  • Pumping Blood- NONONO
    • I really enjoy this song. It was on Hit-Bound for what seems like a year but I'm still really happy it debuted!
  • Animals- Martin Garrix
    • This is one of the BEST dance tracks I have ever heard! Even though it lacks words for the most part, I don't really mind! I hope Animals is around for a LONG time!
  • Find You- Zedd ft. Matthew Koma & Miriam Bryant
    • This is a pretty good song! There is nothing not to like about it. Zedd is a great DJ, and Matthew Koma & Miriam Bryant both have really good vocals!
  • I Want It All- Karmin
    • You can never go wrong with Karmin! I absolutely LOVE this song! This song was produced by Pitch Perfect star Ester Dean! I love the 80's feel to it! I Want It All is up there with Acapella and Brokenhearted as one of their best!

Song Review for Debuts in February & March.

Hey guys! Since I haven't reviewed debuts on the Weekend Countdown since the beginning of February, here they are. (Hint: I like all of them!)


  • Take Me Home- Cash Cash ft. Bebe Rexha
    • I really enjoy this song! Bebe Rexha has really good vocals! I hope to hear more from her in the future.
  • Talk Dirty- Jason Derulo
    • Unfortunately Hits-1 cuts 2 Chainz from the song, but I still love the Hits-1 version. The instruments are great! This is a song Jason Derulo needed! With The Other Side being boring, and Marry Me not getting very popular, Talk Dirty puts Jason Derulo back on the map.
  • Replay- Zendaya
    • Replay is a great song! I hope it sticks around for a long time!
  • Best Day of My Life- American Authors
    • I didn't like this song. I thought it was too much like It's Time- Imagine Dragons and Ho Hey- The Lumineers, but it has really grown on me. When I have my music on shuffle I always get this song and On Top of The World- Imagine Dragons mixed up. I still thoroughly enjoy the song!
  • Neon Lights- Demi Lovato
    •  I love this song too! I have always been a Demi Lovato fan and this song does not disappoint. I rank it up there with Heart Attack as one of her best!
  • Hey Brother- Avicii ft. Dan Tyminski
    • I probably sound like a broken record right now, but I love this song! Its different than any song out right now. Avicii is a great DJ! Dan Tyminski plays a great part too!
  • The Man- Aloe Blacc
    • Aloe Blacc is THE MAN! I love the tone of his voice and his country/R&B sound! Perfect for mainstream right now!
  • Headlights- Eminem ft. Nate Ruess
    • Honestly, compared to The Monster this song is not very good. That being said, I really enjoy this song! This song I would assume is very personal to Eminem. Nate Ruess plays a great part.
  • Can't Remember To Forget You- Shakira ft. Rihanna 
    • I am not usually a big Shakira or Rihanna fan, but I love this song. It is a ton of fun.

I'm Back! Hits-1 Recommendations!

Sorry to everyone who has been following this blog! I lost touch a little bit with it but I'm BACK! Expect Hits-1 updates often. So in the meantime I will review all the songs that have debuted on the Weekend Countdown since the beginning of February! Before I do that here are some songs that are not currently played on Hits-1 that I would like to see be played soon!


  • Mmm Yeah- Austin Mahone ft. Pitbull
    • This song is AMAZING! It has an amazing beat & fun lyrics! These two make a really good pair too!
  • Human- Christina Perri
    • This song has really good lyrics and is inspirational. Christina Perri's vocals are great as usual too!
  • Hold On- Colbie Caillat
    • Colbie Caillat is great on the track, but whats new!
  • Let It Go- Demi Lovato
    • With Frozen being released soon, and Idina Menzel's version not being as radio-friendly, I would love and not be suprised if this song got airplay. (Unless Neon Lights would get less, then nevermind!)
  • I See Fire- Ed Sheeran
    • I love this song. I'm not sure how radio-friendly it is, but its a great song. Its also on The Hobbit: Desolation of Smog!
  • Expired Lover- Emily Kinney
    • Most people know Emily Kinney as Beth Greene on The Walking Dead, who sings every now and then. Well her music is pretty good. With Sunday nights episode focusing mostly on her and Norman Reedus's character Daryl Dixon, hopefully it will boost her musics popularity!
  • Better Together- Fifth Harmony
    • Fifth Harmony is a better girl group than Little Mix, Haim, & Serebro who are all played on Hits 1.
  • Invisible- Hunter Hayes
    • Just because its by Hunter Hayes it should automatically played everywhere. It helps that this song attacks bullying!
  • All of Me- John Legend
    • This song is just flat out amazing! It it #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. I was expecting it to be on Hit-Bound last weekend, but I bet it is this weekend.
  • Show Me- Kid Ink ft. Chris Brown
    • This song is extremely catchy! Its on the American Top 40 chart, so I hope that means Hits-1 will play it soon.
  • Glory & Gore- Lorde
    • If you don't know already I am a HUGE Lorde fan. This song is not a disappointment. Its climbing Billboard and iTunes right now. Hits-1 likes Lorde so I'm sure it will be played soon!
  • Lucky Strike- Maroon 5
    • I'm expecting Adam Levine to perform this song on The Voice sometime in the next few weeks like all the coaches so to release new music (ex. Say Something- A Great Big World/Christina Aguilera). I love this song. One of their best!
  • She Keeps Me Warm- Mary Lambert
    • If you couldn't tell from the title, this song is a sequel to Same Love- Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ft. Mary Lambert. Mary Lambert is a great vocalist! I love when artists sing about great causes!
  • Midnight Memories- One Direction
    • I've been expecting this song to be on Hits-1 for a while. This song is a lot of fun.

Recomendations for the Hits 1

  • Mmm Yeah- Austin Mahone ft. Pitbull
This song is AMAZING! It has catchy beats & fun lyrics! It is what Hits 1 needs!
  • Waiting For Superman- Daughtry
Daughtry can SING! I love this song!
  • Let It Go- Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato has quite the voice! I feel like this song would do really well due to the recent success of the Frozen soundtrack.
  • I See Fire- Ed Sheeran
I love the vocals in this song!
  • 3000 Miles- Emblem3
Emblem3 is just a great band that needs another song on Hits 1  after Chloe!
  • Better Together- Fifth Harmony
I love this group of gals are amazing! Better Together has great energy that would do really well on the Hits 1!
  • Invisible- Hunter Hayes
You can never go wrong with Hunter Hayes. I love the message in this song!
  • Adore You- Miley Cyrus
Not as good as Wrecking Ball, but still a good song.
  • Midnight Memories- One Direction
It's One Direction. Obviously it will debut soon, but sooner the better!
  • Can't Remember To Forget You- Shakira ft. Rihanna
This song is surprisingly a lot of fun! I would love to see it on Hits 1!
