Hi! So, I have a lot of things to get out of the way.
- First of all, there's the obvious - my new blog URL. I would love for this to replace the old one on whichever blog sidebars have mine listed.
- Secondly, I made some new additions to AllTheHits. One is the Nebula. Essentially, it's the same thing as the light pink songs in the abyss (songs that would be in high rotation on AllTheHits but are ineligible for the charts that are being specifically highlighted for other reasons), but I made them into their own entirely separate thing. I debated having it replace the abyss, but the abyss will still exist, mostly for when an album comes out and I can't fit all the songs in AT & HFE30.
- You also may notice that some of the HFE30 songs are colored gold now? Well, these are songs that have been charting for at least 13 weeks and have peaked within the top 3. These will be considered gold songs, so whenever they leave the chart, even if it's before the one-year cutoff, they'll immediately enter the AllTheHits recurrents page (unless they significantly fade on me within that time, which for the most part is unlikely). By the way, I don't think anyone has noticed the new recurrents page I added! It's linked under the "AllTheHits: My Own 'Radio Station'" tab.
- I am, at least temporarily, discontinuing the Starlight Seven. It was easily the most tedious segment to make and was generally not very interesting to keep track of.
- And finally... I will have a "surprise post" coming tomorrow that... may not be the most fun. You'll see.
Anyway, AllTheHits was pretty inactive this week aside from a few big things. Laufey is now pulling a Billboard Swift in which the entire top 5 on my chart is Laufey's 5 eligible songs, including this week's new release amazingly debuting at #3. This week also saw new debuts from Haim and Audrey Hobert, and after his live performance on Austin City Limits in support of public television, Finneas makes a grand return to the top 10. There were not many debuts in Almost There this week, but one of them will come as a surprise to some people - it's a random six-month-old "where-did-they-find-this" Hits 1 song that I just recently listened to again and is just now clicking with me.
Well, here is this week's AllTheHits!
