Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 January 30

This is the fifth countdown of 2021 -- for the weekend of Saturday, January 30, which means this is the final countdown for January. Last week, Monsters from All Time Low/Demi Lovato/Blackbear was #1 for the 4th time overall. Will it be #1 again for a 5th week overall, or will a new song finally take its place to become the third #1 song of 2021? Scroll down to find out. This week there was a lot of movement on the countdown, 6 songs are leaving the countdown which means 6 new ones will take their places. Of the 24 songs that remain from last week, only 3 stayed in their same spot. Dropping out of the countdown are: "Goodbye" from Shalen (only lasted one week), "Holding On" from Iann Dior, "Monster" from Shawn Mendes & Justin Bieber, "Laugh Now Cry Later" from Drake & Lil Durk, "Bang!" from AJR, and "Holiday" from Lil Nas X.

Wutchuwant Countdown - 2021 January 25 & 28

This is the fourth Wutchuwant countdown listing for 2021 and the final one for January. Unfortunately, I was having technical difficulties with my radio claiming it ran out of storage space. Therefore, I only got Monday's and Thursday's complete countdowns. Wednesday's did not record and I only got the first 6 (#15-#10) on Tuesday. It appeared this week (except for Monday) that Mikey Piff, at a minimum, either introduced the countdown or announced the number 1 song. I don't think anyone filled in for Mikey Piff on Monday, because I heard no DJ announcements for over an hour after the end of the countdown. The Wutchuwant countdown airs Monday to Thursday at 10pm ET/7pm PT for one hour and showcases the 15 most wanted songs for the day.

Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff - 2021 January 29

This is the fifth posting of Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff in 2021 and the final one in January. This week there are four new songs on Hit-Bound from the artists Why Don't We, Machine Gun Kelly & Halsey, SZA, and Zara Larsson & Young Thug. The four songs leaving hitbound are "Lie Lie Lie" by Joshua Bassett, "My Head & My Heart" by Ava Max, "Heat Waves" by Glass Animals, and "One Whole Day" by Dixie D'Amelio/Whiz Khalifa. The first three of those are 'graduating' to the Weekend Countdown with Spyder Harrison. It also appears that the number of Hit-Bound songs has been reduced from 16 to 15, bringing the total number of songs to 19 instead of 20.

Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 January 23

This is the fourth countdown of 2021 for the weekend of Saturday, January 23. Last week, Monsters by All Time Low/Demi Lovato/Blackbear reclaimed the top spot from Harry Styles to make it #1 for the 3rd time overall. Will it be #1 for a 4th week overall, or will Harry Styles take back the top spot? Scroll down to find out. As a note, there have been only two #1 songs this year - Monsters and Golden; we are still waiting for a third new #1 song. Only one song is dropping out of the countdown, What You Know Bout Love by Pop Smoke. The one new song is Goodbye from Shalen.

Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff - 2021 January 22

This is the fourth posting of Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff in 2021. This week there is only one new song from Zoe Wees -- the first artist featured on "Hits 1 to Watch" last year. Nearly all of the songs on this week's Hit-Bound were also on last week's airing, with the exception of the aforementioned new song from Zoe Wees and Pop Smoke's What You Know Bout Love (which I didn't count as being new since it was already on the Weekend Countdown).

Wutchuwant Countdown - 2021, Week of January 18

This is the third Wutchuwant countdown listing for 2021, starting on Martin Luther King Jr. Day Monday, January 18th. Due to the holiday, Mikey Piff wasn't there for Monday's countdown and it didn't seem like anyone else was filling in. Therefore, the song announcements were all automated. For the rest of the week, only on Tuesday and Thursday did Mikey Piff introduce the countdown -- all of the #1 song annoucements were automated with no commentary from Mikey Piff. The Wutchuwant countdown airs Monday to Thursday at 10pm ET/7pm PT for one hour and showcases the 15 most wanted songs for the day.

Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 January 16 (MLK Weekend)

This is the third countdown of 2021, for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend of January 16. Last week, Harry Styles' Golden reclaimed the top spot for the 3rd time overall and the first time in 2021. Will there be a new 3rd song to reach number 1 in 2021? Scroll down to find out. This week there are quite a few songs dropping out of the countdown since last week there were no removals or additions. Five songs are dropping out, which means that 5 new songs are taking their place in the countdown. The new songs are from artists Ariana Grande, Chris Brown/Young Thug, Justin Bieber, Harry Styles, and Olivia Rodrigo.

Wutchuwant Countdown - 2021, Week of January 11

This is the second Wutchuwant countdown listing for 2021, starting on Monday, January 11th. So far this year, Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, and Ariana Grande have had songs in the top spot. For some reason, Mikey Piff wasn't there for Monday's countdown - so it was a DJ-less hour with automated announcements for the countdown song positions. The Wutchuwant countdown airs Monday to Thursday at 10pm ET/7pm PT for one hour and showcases the 15 most wanted songs for the day.

Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 January 09

Scroll down to see if it keeps the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. There are no songs new to the countdown and no songs are dropping out.

Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff - 2021 January 08

Welcome to the second posting of Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff in 2021. As a reminder, Hit-Bound premieres at 10pm ET/7pm PT every Friday and repeats throughout the weekend following each airing of the Weekend Countdown. Unfortunately, due to technical issues with my radio, I was unable to record the first airing of Hit-Bound on Friday. This listing will be based on one of the re-airings following the Weekend Countdown. The re-airing should be the same as the original -- and this week I'm only going by the radio airing and not the on-demand episode since the "most Wutchuwanted" songs are different between the two. Songs aren't ranked and are listed chronologically when they aired. Additionally, there are about 2-4 additional songs that are part of Hit-Bound that air after Mikey Piff bids farewell. Non-Hit-Bound songs will be colored purple, these are the songs after the announcement "Hit-Bound stops to play this moment's most Wutchuwanted song." Hit-Boun

Wutchuwant Countdown - 2021, Week of January 4

This is the first Wutchuwant countdown listing for 2021, starting on Monday, January 4th. The Wutchuwant countdown airs Monday to Thursday at 10pm ET/7pm PT for one hour and showcases the 15 most wanted songs for the day. This countdown more heavily takes into account listener requests through social media and fluctuates a lot more than Hit-Bound or the Weekend Countdown. However, it is still a good indicator of what the top 10 songs could be on the Weekend Countdown (just less so their order). Mikey Piff was back this week and hosted as usual.

Wutchuwant Countdown - Week of December 28, 2020

Welcome to the first Wutchuwant countdown listing, for those of you who don't know, the Wutchuwant countdown airs Monday to Thursday at 10pm ET/7pm PT for one hour and showcases the 15 most wanted songs for the day. The countdown is usually hosted by Mikey Piff as it's his first hour on the air, but the countdown will be hosted by whoever is filling in for him that night. This countdown more heavily takes into account listener requests through social media and usually fluctuates a lot more than Hit-Bound or the Weekend Countdown. However, it is still a good indicator of what the top 10 songs could be on the Weekend Countdown (just less so their order). Due to special programming on New Year's Eve, this week's countdowns were only from Monday to Wednesday. Mikey Piff was off all this week -- Alex D filled in.
