Two things to note:

1. WTF "Perfect"?!?!? Why don't you just leave already?!?!?

2. Four Breakout/On The Verge songs this week joining the CHR version (which has had four or five Breakouts the last three weeks to date). It's the first time both AT40s have at least four Breakouts since September 2017.

Yeah, Perfect needs to GTFO. This needed to leave a very long time ago.

To be specific, the weekend of September 23, 2017 was the last time both AT40 shows (CHR and Hot AC) have had four Breakout/On The Verge songs.

After 75 weeks on the countdown, Perfect is this week's fastest riser, jumping 10 notches from #40 to #30.

I would expect this on D Rees countdown show, but not on AT40. Lol.

Ryan teases the jump and says it nearly fell off and now is this week's fastest riser as he closes out the first hour.

Looking at the recurrent list of this past Sunday, "Perfect" had 1,969 spins, and that would put it right below "Shotgun" on the list above. Maybe they should have put it there instead?
