A NEWHD LOS ANGELES PRODUCTION
This week’s edition of Caleb’s NEWHD Top Ten Countdown delivers one of the most active charts we have seen in recent weeks, with notable movement throughout the Top Ten and a brand new number one song taking over the top spot.
Debuting at number ten is Tate McRae with Run For The Hills, a track that is already gaining strong momentum thanks to its emotional urgency and high-energy production. Just behind her, Sabrina Carpenter slips one position to number nine with Busy Woman, continuing to hold a strong presence on the chart.
Moving up this week is sombr, whose track Back To Friends climbs to number eight, showing steady listener growth. At number seven, Kehlani continues to rise with Folded, proving that emotionally driven R&B remains a powerful force in today’s music landscape.
Global superstar Bad Bunny pushes forward to number six with DTMF, maintaining strong international appeal and streaming numbers.
The Top Five begins with HUNTR/X and their collaborative track Golden, which dips slightly but remains one of the most innovative songs on the chart. At number four, Taylor Swift climbs back up with The Fate Of Ophelia, once again demonstrating her consistent chart dominance.
One of the biggest stories this week is Alex Warren, whose track Ordinary jumps into the Top Three. The song’s relatable message and strong audience connection suggest it could challenge for number one soon.
At number two, Bruno Mars continues his climb with I Just Might, blending timeless pop elements with modern production. The track is now positioned as a serious contender for the top spot.
Before revealing this week’s number one, the show highlights a rising track to watch. Benson Boone is generating buzz with Echoes In The Dark, a new release that is already gaining traction across streaming platforms and could break into the Top Ten in the coming weeks.
This week’s listener email segment features a request for Good Time by Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen. The 2012 hit remains a feel-good anthem that continues to resonate with listeners who associate it with carefree moments and lasting memories.
The show also revisits a defining track from the early 2010s with the Zoomer Song of the Week. Foster the People is featured with Pumped Up Kicks, a song that blended infectious melodies with deeper themes, helping to shape the indie pop movement of its time.
And this week, we have a brand new number one.
Taking the top spot is Olivia Dean with Man I Need. Her soulful vocals and emotionally grounded songwriting have propelled the track to the peak of the chart, marking a major milestone in her rising career.
