Hit-Bound with Mikey Piff - 2021 April 23

Published

This is the 17th posting of Hit-Bound in 2021 and week 57 of the "Hits 1 at Home Edition" of Hit-Bound. Last week, Mikey Piff mistakenly said it was week 55 of the 'at home edition' of Hit-Bound, so now he is 1 week off in the count. Since there is still no Hits 1 To Watch artist, there are still only 15 songs (not counting the 4 'Most Wutchuwanted' songs). That means that there are now only 2 songs after Mikey Piff's introduction before the first 'Most Wutchuwanted' song plays. Just like last week, there are 3 new songs and 1 returning song to Hit-Bound this week.

I haven't heard any of the 3 new songs before, much less in the past week on Hits 1. One of them originated on the alternate music channel Alt Nation; that is "seratonin" from the girl in red. The other two are "On The Ground" from ROSE and "In The Water" from CAL & Quinn XCII. ROSE is one of the members of Blackpink who recently launched her solo career. The one returning song is "First Time" from Illenium & Iann Dior. It is dropping out of the Weekend Countdown after being there since March 27. It had been consistently rising every week, including last week where it was up to #23.

The girl in red's song "seratonin" is also being featured as the Weekend Countdown Extra for this week. This is the fourth week in a row that a song on Hit-Bound is the Countdown Extra.

The 4 songs leaving Hit-Bound are "Sacrifice" from Bebe Rexha, "Hold On" from Justin Bieber, "CHICKEN TENDIES" from Clinton Kane, and "Remember That Night?" from Sara Kays. Sara Kays' song is jumping back to the Weekend Countdown after falling out last week.

"Hold On" from Justin Bieber was only on Hit-Bound for one week and will not be moving over to the Weekend Countdown. Clinton Kane's and Bebe Rexha's songs are also not moving over to the Weekend Countdown.

Songs aren't ranked and are listed chronologically when they aired.

New songs have a plus [+] at the end of their listing. Returning songs have a [R]. Non-Hit-Bound songs are colored purple, these are the songs after the announcement "Hit-Bound stops to play this moment's most Wutchuwanted song."

Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 April 03

Published
This is the 14th countdown of 2021 and the first one in April and the second quarter. Last week, Taylor Swift's "willow" ended Drivers License's streak at #1 and became the fifth different song to reach #1 this year. Will it continue to be #1? Scroll down to find out. An interesting note, this week I noticed at least 2 slip-ups on the countdown that referred to its former number of songs, 45. In the first part of the intro Spyder Harrison said, "Before we get to this week's fresh 45..." and there was an automated ident that said, "The 45 biggest hits in North America." It is likely these are just mistakes, but it would be nice to get back to 45 songs, even if it was 3 hours in length. It might be a tight fit with the current average of 15 songs/hour, but in 2.5 hours they might be able to cover 40 songs. This week, there are 2 songs entering and leaving. Tones and I's "Fly Away" (was #27) and Harry Style's "Golde...

Hits 1 Weekend Countdown - 2021 March 27

This is the 13th countdown of 2021 and the final one in March and the first quarter. Last week, Drivers License was #1 for the fourth week in a row. It is now the outright the top song of 2021 with four week at #1. Will it extend its time at #1? Scroll down to find out. This week, there are 3 songs entering and 3 leaving. Joshua Bassett's "Lie Lie Lie" (was #9), Sigala/James Arthur's "Lasting Lover" (#19), and 24kGoldn's "3,2,1" (#26) are all leaving the countdown. Joshua Bassett sets a new record on the countdown for the highest ranking song to fall out of the countdown from one week to the next. The previous record was the number 13 position for Ariana Grande's "34+35" just two weeks ago on March 13. Of those 3, "Lasting Lover" was the oldest song, being on the countdown since its premiere on January 1st. The 3 new songs are "Too Late" by Cash Cash/Wiz Khalifa/Lucas Graham, "First Time" by Ille...
