What to do:

1) Rank all of the songs based on your preferences, from 1 (your favorite song) to 100 (your least favorite song). All 100 songs must be ranked.

2) PM me (Lukas) your rankings of all of these songs. List the songs from best to worst, so starting from #1 then down to #100. I will let you decide if you want to number your list. If you want to number your list, use the line numbering tool (see the list of links below) to automatically have it done for you.

3) You must stick to the same formatting of the song artists/titles that I’ve listed above. This means, COPY AND PASTE THE LIST ABOVE TO MAKE YOUR RANKINGS. DO NOT TYPE THE SONGS OUT MANUALLY. If you don’t, I will ask you to re-do your list.

4) You can choose to edit your list after you submit, but do not do so excessively. You cannot edit your list once the submission deadline has passed.

5) Rankings are due on May 23, 2024 at 11:59 PM Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4). I will extend the deadline if necessary.

Here is a list of useful links:
Line Numbering Tool - Use if you want to number your list.
Preference Revealer - Sorts the list of songs by asking you to decide between pairs of songs.

Finally, here is the tag list. I will do a lot of reminding for this rankdown. So if you don't want to do this, it's best to tell me right now so I can remove you from the tag list. And if you aren't on this tag list, let me know if you want to be added. You do not have to be on this tag list to send in a list. Anyone can send.

[312999]

Definitely in. A rare rankdown that 3 of the possible bottom 5 on this could be the songs that barely made the list, Lover Lover, Smile, and Teach Me How To Dougie but I could be wrong. Maybe they’ll escape the bottom 5, not sure how this will go. I do feel like the top 3 might be obvious though, but hoping a certain song will not win that might be top 3.

[Fire]

duh i'm in

[beyoncelover]

This looks fun and I will surely participate in this. But gosh, so many rankdowns are coming around. I'm gonna be so overwhelmed, lmao.

[G@bing$20n]

SIGN. ME. UP.

[PREDS PRIDE]

I’m already overwhelmed honestly. I’m just glad that I got a few days break of no significant Rankdown due soon that interests me. I was debating not to do the all time streamed one but may do it, will see.

[kanubow]

yeah, I'll have this in real quick, very nostalgic year for me like every other year of the 2010's is

[SabrinaFan]

Just submitted my list. Lots of classics here, honestly my whole top 25 are songs I wish I had the room to put top 10. On the other end of the spectrum, my bottom 15 is comprised of pretty much all useless songs that I have no reason to ever return to.

[Fire]

sent!!

way stronger year than i remember

[G@bing$20n]

2008 is done, so I'll now begin work on this list. Give it a week or two.

[singingrulebritannia]

I know this is basically beating a dead horse at this point because we've explored this idea through all the re-dos, but man, what was Pulse's taste back in 2017? If I listed all the Ls in the original results I'd be here all day, so I'll just say this: I want to see the Eminem lead songs a lot lower and the Alicia Keys songs a lot higher.

I don't understand how hard it is for people to follow basic rules listed in the OP. For every recent rankdown I've hosted, I've had a rule of this form, and yet it is continually broken for absolutely no reason (so I'm not making this post because of one event specifically, it's happened way more times than it should). It is just that simple: Ctrl+C to copy the list and Ctrl+V to paste the list. Much more simple than doing it literally any other way, really.

I have been quite lenient on this before, fixing the formatting changes manually for some of the submissions with minor formatting errors, but from now on, I will not accept any lists that break rule #3 (i.e. any lists that are not simply a reordering of the list given in the OP). There will be no exceptions. I'm sorry if this sounds way too harsh, but Pulse has had many rankdowns in the past whose results needed to be changed in the middle of reveals because somebody decided to not copy-paste the list given in the OP. We do not need to add another rankdown to that list.

[Fire]

Yall the hosts don’t type up long ass op posts on rds for decoration or something. They contain essential information on the rules of the rd, who to send to, etc. my advice is to maybe read them fully once in a while!!! You might learn something!!!

[ilikemilk]

A rankdown where I can finally agree with most everyone and tank a milky song because this one actually annoys me, Fireflies.

of all "milky" songs ofc you tank the best one....

[G@bing$20n]

Does the word "Featuring" have to be capitalized?

[G@bing$20n]

Beginning the ranking proper. I'm working on the Mediocre Tier (2/5), and I forgot how badly a lot of them have aged. They're almost unlistenable with how dated they are. I get why so many people hated this year's music and consider it a bad year to this day. Fortunately the highs were both frequent and spectacular.

If you want to manually lowercase them after copying and pasting the list that's fine because my format detector I believe is case-sensitive. But you have to make sure you don't alter the list in any other way, because that will force a redo. So no, it doesn't have to be. But copying and pasting the given list in the OP to make your rankings and not altering any of the songs in any way is the fastest and safest (in that your list is guaranteed to be good to go the first time) way to make your rankings, so I strongly discourage doing this.

[G@bing$20n]

My ranking is in. 2010 is a really uneven year for music. Some of the best and worst hits of its namesake decade are found on this list.

[Lukas]

One week left to submit.

Unlike previous rankdowns, there won't be a grace period once the official deadline has passed. This is because I plan to begin reveals at 9 PM MST on May 23. So get your lists in as soon as possible!

[wheatsquares33]

Just sent. I didn't realize that I had so much...whatever the opposite of nostalgia is for the pop hits of 2010 lol. There were only 2 songs here that I gave over a 7/10, and they were both first listens (and then only my top 22 were 7/10 or higher).

So what bubbled to the top of my list feels weird to me, and I kinda feel like my list turned out a mess. But I'm excited for reveals

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Halfway through my list, i'll try to get it done by tom

[maseruck]

My top 60 are all strong. A lot of nostalgia in that set. However the bottom 20 are quite bad, the bottom 10 are horrendous. My number 100 is one of my least favorite songs and I hope people tank it.
