It's okay, rowellfarm490...you may have lost a top ten with the last reveal, but at least you lost your #40 here.

Az can't lose a second top 10 in a row, that's just plain silly. Wasn't the song I thought it'd be but I absolutely could have seen it being another of mine. :sip2:

I always thought that this song is about a naive "other woman" who hasn't realized yet that the scum who's cheating with her will never leave his girlfriend & never be hers...he's never going to make that call ... it's a sad song from that perspective

My #40 I thought was going out ...should I tell him? #27 brings a change of pace for Az: IT'S NOT A TOP TEN LOSS FOR HIM! HUZZAH! Then again, I'd sure hope he, somehow, wouldn't find a way to lose a top ten here, as no one loses a top ten here. Two people do lose bottom tens, though, with one of those two rankings being bottom fives. One of those bottom ten rankings is losing one just after losing one in the last reveal. Oh, and it's also the song with the third-lowest standard deviation.

#26 pretty much hung out in the 16-25 range for most of the rankdown, ultimately settling just one spot below that range. Three people lose bottom tens, while two more people lose top tens. For one, it's a top five loss. For both, it's definitely not their first top ten loss...

I actually thought this might do a little better, given how well it did in Lord's rankdown. Guess not.

so, uh, can we start an oldies purge? Depends on your definition of "oldie", but #25 is definitely not a modern song. This was one of the most consistent songs in the rankdown, pretty much hovering around the 21-30 range for almost its entire run, sneaking into the top 20 briefly (and I do mean briefly). This is the final song to have no top ten rankings, and it only has just one bottom ten ranking (though it is a bottom five). #25 is a big one, the source of the lowest standard deviation in the entire rankdown.

The cover version from James' rankdown > Michael Jackson's original How dare you. From the smallest standard deviation, we go to one of the highest with #24. One thing that I didn't mention with the previous hint post is that this was tied with "Dirty Diana". What broke the tie? I'd say that the three top tens were more than enough to break the tie in this case. For two posters, it's a top five loss. Meanwhile, four people lose bottom tens, with ALL of them being bottom five losses. One poster, in particular, will lose their #40. This is the source of the third-highest standard deviation in the entire rankdown.

I will admit that I was hoping that #23 would do a little better than it wound up doing...but, for a while, it looked like it was going to exceed expectations. At one point, this was nearly a top ten contender. As the rankings kept piling in, though, this started to drop, ultimately landing here. Five people lose bottom tens, with two of those losses being bottom fives, while three people lose top tens...including me.

Again, I was being slightly deceitful when I talked about #23, as #22 was also tied with "Ace of Spades". The tiebreaker was a big one, though: We lose our second #1. Another person who just lost a top ten will lose one here, too. The #1 loser will be one of the two remaining people who has yet to lose a top ten. Two more people will lose bottom tens, with one having just lost one in the previous reveal.

#21 beat out "Star Roving" and "Ace of Spades" by just a single point. Just two people lose bottom tens here, but one loses a bottom five...and, more importantly, their lowest rank remaining. Only one poster loses a top ten, but it is someone who has been losing quite a few high-ranked songs in this update. This is the source of the fifth-lowest standard deviation in the rankdown.

Okay, you may have briefly noticed that I posted #21 and then deleted the post. That's because I thought that I had made a crucial mistake and had peacebone down for #17, when he really put the next song at #26. As it turns out, I had just put in peacebone's name twice. Az Paynter was the #17 ranker for this song all along. No mistakes were made...other than the one I just mentioned.
