This Week's Billboard

 




We have made it to the second week of billboard Charts commentary. For those of you who have not read last week's post, I've decided to start posting commentaries on each week's #1 of the billboard Hot 100. I will also be speaking on the #1 of the Christian charts. For those of you who did read last week's post, you saw that I did not speak on last week's Christian #1 due to my dislike for the artist. However, I will be speaking on Christian's #1 this time. 



 Paint The Town Red- Doja Cat


Honestly, I'm surprised that Doja was able to get a #1 considering her controversial online rants. I don't really care for the song. It's not horrible, but I'm not as into the melody as I was with last week's. It is hinted that the lyrics reference her online comments, but I don't think that was confirmed. Other than this, I don't really have much to say about the song. Hopefully Dionne Warwick appreciated being sampled in this.



 Holy Forever- Chris Tomlin


I don't really care for this one either. It's fine enough to worship to, which is probably the best thing about the song. But other than that, I don't really love this song. Speaking as a Christian, the message is good. Not that I'm trying to force my beliefs on anyone OR minimize my faith in any way, but I don't see this song as having enough of an impact to really move people who are outside of Christian music. And this is coming from someone who is very familiar with Chris Tomlin. But it also doesn't help that I was predominantly raised in Gospel (there is a huge difference between Gospel and CCM).



Anyway, those are my thoughts. Y'all may or may not get a list later this week. Thanks for reading.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best.  This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;     Canaan James Hill (Platinum)             Gabby Simone  Zaylie Windsor                         Mattie Pruitt  Thunderstorm Artis                  Drew Ryn  Che                                     ...

American Idol 2025 Day 2: Top 24

  I would like to say that for the first week of live shows, a good majority of contestants either did REALLY good or better than they should have. I personally was very impressed with the last 2 days. With that being said, I still gotta rank. Today I will be ranking every single performance from worst to best. This ranking is solely based on my opinion. If you have not read last week's introduction, I highly suggest you read that first before this ranking;   Worst Performance Of The Week:  Baylee Littrell Happy - Pharrell This really kills me. Not sure what he was thinking with this song choice #23: Josh King I'm Still Standing - Elton John Him and Baylee equally sucked. But at least this song was more in Josh's league #22: Olivier Bergeron   I'm Not Okay - Jelly Roll He's kind of bland to me #21: Desmond Roberts Do I Do - Stevie Wonder Needs to calm down a little #20: John Foster Callin' Baton Rouge - Various Also kind of bland #19: Kyana Fanene I Am - St...

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
