Ummm I might've ruined yet another laptop of mine and there's a chance that all my files were wiped because of an evil Windows update, and all my music is in my iTunes library.  Soooo I am forced to put this countdown on a break for now. Maybe for 2 weeks or something? Who knows!   

 

edit: OK I just ordered something that should hopefully only make me wait 2 days but even if it works, there will still be no update next Friday.

 

edit 2: My files weren't wiped & I was able to save them but I need to reinstall Windows 10 via a USB drive... from my sister's old Macbook. I tried doing it all myself but I've hit so many hurdles and I think it's just time for me to give up and hand it over to a professional at some point. Once again, who knows when the chart will be back!

Also: I'm glad you didn't lose your files, that's the worst

Starstruck RETIRED :!omg:

Take My Breath is good, and im starting to get back into Can You Handle...
Have Mercy
Good Ones LOVIN this song
Angel Baby 2 weeks on top

 

Golden Hour  LOVE that album 

[Lord Of Countdown]

12/30, Get Over Here + Have Mercy, both deserve the top 10

[Remmy]

So as I mentioned on the last page I've been having major computer problems and right now I'm stuck on my sister's super old Macbook which has definitely not made things much easier. I'm also still in the process of a move on top of this.  BASICALLY long story short is I'm able to access my files even though my laptop won't boot up properly & I transferred most of my music onto this dusty Mac, even though my iTunes library is so messy and unorganized now... blah blah blah so anyway the countdown will be back next Friday (Oct 8th). I might post another somewhat-annual Q3 Celebration before then so stay tuned?

 

Week 385 - Official Debuts:

John Mayer "Wild Blue"
Nina Nesbitt "Life's a Bitch (L.A.B)"
Orla Gartland "You're Not Special Babe"

 

Week 386 - Possible Future Debuts:

Billie Eilish "Happier Than Ever" (finally)

Years & Years "Crave"

Evolve is one of my top 5 favorite albums from the 2010s, it's really cute to see it getting some love 

It's a great body of work  Likely their 2nd best behind Smoke + Mirrors.

Sister Ray, Burning Bridges, Take My Breath, Angel Baby

[Green]

Quote

Charli XCX "Good Ones"
Troye Sivan "Angel Baby"
WALK THE MOON "Can You Handle My Love??"
The Weeknd "Take My Breath"

These are my favorites from the singles list 

 

 

"Oxytocin" 

[Mr. Loco]

Take my breath 

OneRepublic are still having some cute singles here and there and I'm still here for them, but I feel most of the hype is gone as they delayed their album a lot tbh 

Halsey 

[Pinkoverblue]

CHVRCHES and Halsey on the top albums list. Singles are amazing too

 

 

Hopefully you'll be able to update

These lists are only for Q3 (Jul 1st to Sept 30th) so Starstruck doesn't qualify. It will do well on my Best of 2021!

Pasadena needed time to grow on me but it is a bop  Definitely underappreciated.

It's so dreamy and nostalgic

 

Yep, Manic is Halsey's weakest album for me. This new one exceeded my expectations actually.

Yesss get into it  It's definitely nice, also better than Ashton's (he released an album last year if you didn't know )

Both albums are unfortunately (but expectedly) very plain  I actually enjoyed OneRep's a little more. Wrecked is alright, Cutthroat is a nice track but I'm not surprised that it didn't grab people when it was released alongside Follow You.

It's good, there's just better songs on the album  and most of them were already singles.

Starstruck is eeeasily better, but Crave is cute overall.

Oh wow, oh wow ... so many people (including myself) think it's a discography highlight

Right  although I'd say cute is an understatement!

My Imagine Dragons tour is over  1st week was Mercury Act 1, 2nd was Evolve/a bit of Origins, 3rd was Night Visions/S+M. Origins is my least favorite album from them actually  Most of it just doesn't do much for me.
