thank u next deserves better at least breathin is still punching a bit 
High Hopes back I overplayed it to hell and back though 

Does it? Does it really?  She's a good song but I don't love it, especially compared to breathin.
I haven't but it's lasted this long so obviously that's great  I prefer others from the album, plus it doesn't deserve to be his highest peak on BB100 honestly.

Well it was #1 for 5 weeks so I'm sure you know my answer  Strangers and Schedules, sweeties, I'm so sorry...
Oh I'mma do that anyway... I'mma do that anyway cause that's how I am
We do??? Speak for yourself I can't relate to that. Oh yes now WE love both of those
Girl your chart might be the only one to have her at #1  But the song is still nice. During ha debut week it was her vs. Sigrid for the top spot but then Gaga and Hailee took over the battle.  HAW is a grower, I enjoy ha.
Umm put some respect on Leona, it's from her 2013 Christmas release! Night Changes is their best song we been knew
Can I live????? Can I LIVE???????????????

Happier debuting video > song  

It's been out since the 30th (and exclusively played on some radio stations a few weeks before that) and unfortunately I don't like it all, despite being a big fan of Foster the People. The original is beyond unbothered.
Haven't watched the video, maybe I should give it a look before i finalize that Best of 2018 list

thank you next and breathin deserves better 
Head Above Water rising 

breathin could've been (or could be?) a multi-week #1 if the competition wasn't so strong. thank u, next is good but I don't love it, which is a big reason why it's not higher. The video was solid though it had literally no impact.
It sunk back down  But I think it's likely gonna rebound next time

I hope Burn the House Down returns and 1999 moves up more.

I might feel the same way but I'm not sure, pretty much on the same level for me.

Neither of these happened  Burn the House Down is definitely done at this point.

[Diet Pepsi]

Little Mix’s tumble 

Miley debuting top 15,should’ve been #1

1999 stalling

[potent]

Great top 3, but particularly top 2

Blur going #1  I'm getting into it more and more lately

 

Peach might be able to retire in the top 10

[Diarrhoea]

Blur is a great song, this better be the solo version though  but of course it won't be because you're a ginger demon

Sigrid falling is kinda sad though  Little Things and My Blood both holding up well  PFO still falling is... sexist. To me.

YSMIIAC rising so quickly just to get retired  NBLAH is a good song, but I can't think of anything but 'SHIIK' when I listen 

Woman Like Me dying? We love that  Back To December and Thinking Bout You  One Direction will never die OT4eva ?

Oh I totally agree

It did! And Billie at #10 just replaced Billie at #10

Yes, it is  I just don't feel like playing it much

Love love love that top 3. Sigrid still holding on.

 

Aly & AJ returning so they can retire next week.

She would be one of the longest running #1s if she never got blocked  She's really slaying that #2 spot

 

Yep, they made it

That's great  And it probably won't, mainly because there's gonna be a 4 week break.

One Direction will never die OT4eva ?

Don't worry it is, I don't care for the remix at all! And can I LIVE?!?!???!?!

She's doing fine at #2  Well that's unfortunate! Guess we have different definitions.

Kiii I saw that meme, they did her dirty  Oh, we been knew ladies!!!

10/20

 

Happier returning 

[Kevin2803]

Miley & Ariana climbing

 

Hailee falling ? 

[T.O.A.D.S.]

Yaaas rise up breathin 

[Green]

Head Above Water jumping to the top 10, Breathin' top 4 and Shallow back to the top 3 

[Pinkoverblue]

14/20

 

 

Aly & AJ finally getting their retirement!

Love you top 5, cant believe breathin is doing better then thank u, next.

[Diarrhoea]

Blur hoisting itself #1 is a fantastic outcome for this countdown. Shallow is despicable, and it reigning above breathin is abominable.

I must say, Little Things falling ever so slightly is quite deplorable to me. The same feelings apply to the movement of My Blood.

I don't think Billie Eilish's music deserves the recognition you're giving it. Ms Jepsen has been undersold by her placement here.

1999 being permanently stuck so low is an odd decision. Now, Now are splendid, I'm glad that you're listening to them this week.
