Is it odd that I'm glad I can start these things with a different picture now? Sure, Panda isn't that great, but heh, I'll take it. Even if without it 7 Years would be at Number 1 right now. But that song has soured on me somewhat. Not a lot. Still think it deserved to be Number 1 more. Also massive amount of Prince songs re-entering. Wasn't really expecting that for another week but it's welcome. HIGHLIGHTS TIME!

New and Returning Entries Ranked
1. Let's Go Crazy
Real-talk, this is my favorite Prince song of all time. "We are gathered here to get through this thing called life." No kidding. Also that guitar solo at the end. Possibly the best guitar solo of all time.
2. Purple Rain
Classic lighters-in-the-air ballad. Fitting that it was the highest-charting Prince song to return this week. Rest in peace, you wonderful purple man. Thanks for being awesome.
3. 1999
Synthpop at its finest. Also timeless despite the fact that it names a specific year. I remember Weezer even name checked this song in Troublemaker from the Red Album. That's a good song too. Not as good as this.
4. You Don't Own Me
Put a smile on my face to see this on here. I like G-Eazy, I really do, and this is pretty close to being the best thing he's been on. Me Myself & I is a hard bar to beat for me though. But really it's Grace who dominates this track. It's harsh and exploding with style.
5. When Doves Cry
Whenever I think of this song I think of the Simpsons episode where Milhouse hugs the Shelbyville Milhouse in sadness. I'm weird like that. Still, good song. It's weird and somber but it's definitely a classic.
6. Little Red Corvette
Another staple of classic rock radio. I always thought that "class" line should've rhymed with "ass" somehow though. Maybe that's just me. Still a good song, even if I think it's a bit weaker than the other Prince songs from this week.
7. i hate u, i love u
Well, this isn't what I was expecting. These sentiments aren't exactly new, but it's touching nonetheless. I feel like gnash could cuss a bit less, but otherwise this works for me.
8. Wasted Time
I am fully aware this isn't country. I still reserve my right to like it. Just a fun song about having fun, nothing wrong with that in my book.
9. Let Me Love You
Not as sexy as Love Me Harder but it's still pretty sexy. At least when the trap elements aren't playing, could've done without those. I'm also not sure Lil Wayne is right for this song. He sounds wasted here. Decent song, but could've been a great song if it ironed out some flaws.
10. Wicked
Okay, not sure why a song from one of Future's mixtapes is getting attention. Especially when it sounds so incomplete. The chorus is weak, there's random callouts to DJs throughout the song, the beat is alright but nothing special. Can we get a little less Future on the charts please?
11. Kiss
I always thought this song was called "You Don't Have To Be Rich" or something along those lines. Gonna be honest, I never liked this song that much. I find it more grating than anything. And I thought my top 6 was gonna be all Prince this week. Sorry.
12. Just Like Fire
Overproduced, I'm not sure how this is supposed to fit into the new Alice in Wonderland mvoie. Also I dunno if anyone else hears this, but there's something unnatural about this song. And I'm not just talking about that rap bridge, though that didn't help. Also I feel like P!nk usually has more personality than this.
