Billboard Hot 100: The Top 10 Songs of the Week (October 4, 2025). AI-Generated.
For the week of October 4, 2025, the Billboard Hot 100 chart showcases a mix of enduring hits and fresh contenders that reflect the current state of pop music. A notable trend is the longevity of popular tracks, with Teddy Swims' "Lose Control" continuing its record-breaking chart run and several 2024 hits still holding strong in the top 10. However, the most dominant story of the week comes from the animated film KPop Demon Hunters, whose soundtrack has landed multiple songs in the top five, including the No. 1 single "Golden" and the villainous anthem "Your Idol." Alongside these cinematic smashes, artists like Alex Warren, Sabrina Carpenter, and Justin Bieber round out the chart with personal ballads, witty synth-pop, and vulnerable alternative-pop tracks, proving that variety and staying power are key ingredients for success on the Hot 100.

Desperate Teenage Love Dolls
Punk rock, like other massively impactful human inventions, such as fire and the wheel, has its ultimate and Divine Purpose—but also, alas, its limitations. The A-Bomb has its limitations too, insomuch as it cannot create anything new except a better breeding ground for giant-sized roaches. Desperate Teenage Love Dolls, like the nukes, could also have, at one time, given birth to a new breeding ground for mutant vermin. Alas, the time when it could have wiped out an entire city has long since passed.
