Comments:
With this being my last countdown of the summer, it was bittersweet. Some songs gained a boost because of the "one-last-hurrah" affect while for other songs...I knew it was their time to leave. Summer by Calvin Harris & Chasing the Sun by Hilary Duff benefitted from the effect. For Up! by Samantha Jade, Lightning In a Bottle by The Summer Set & Blink by Cascada, it was time for these summer anthems to say goodbye!
In other news, Taylor Swift debuts at #1 with Shake It Off. It's easily the most addictive song she's ever released. I was hooked on the first listen. Also debuting is Lay Me Down by Pixie Lott at #36. It is her first ever entry on the chart.
And now for my:
