Forgive me if this was brought up but why wasn't "Song For Another Time" taken out? Was it used for 2016's rankdown in the sub-forum? I know I'm way late in asking but I haven't sifted through the list until now. It peaked in 2016, right after "May We All" by FGL (feat. Tim McGraw). In this case I didn't take songs out specifically for having already been used in the 2016 rankdown, because some of them like "80s Mercedes" were also really big this year. I just took them out on the basis of which ones felt extremely old to me. Honestly, I didn't even realize "Song For Another Time" was that old! I took out "May We All" because it definitely felt like a 2016 song, but "Song For Another Time" didn't even hit my radar. I will say, the two songs I most regret not cutting are Keith Urban's "Blue Ain't Your Color" and High Valley's "Make You Mine". Those are definitely more like 2016 songs... But oh well, it's too late to change anything now

List submitted.
I say I love or really enjoy by top 50-60 and like somewhat the next 10-15. The bottom 20 is really bad and the last 5-10 are the flames of hell.

I'll try to get this started soon, I've been a little busy and haven't found the time to start the playlist. I'll be right at the deadline when/if I submit.

Submitted! This was a really good year, though there were still a solid like 25-30 songs that I could totally do without.

though there were still a solid like 25-30 songs that I could totally do without. Which is pretty high. 10 years ago, there were like 5 songs I actively disliked or hated. For the past five years or so it's more like 25 lol.

And fwiw, I thought my bottom 20 or so on the 2006 RD weren't all that great either. Comparatively better than my bottom 20 or so on this year, but still could live without quite a few of 'em, lol.

Comparatively better than my bottom 20 or so on this year, but still could live without quite a few of 'em, lol. Understood, but the difference (at least for me) is that the songs I disliked in 2006 (the very few for me), were due to things like strange/wrong-headed lyrics or boringness. 2013-2017 was just loaded with trend-chasing songs with regurgitated production tactics and lyrics, filled with nothing I found compelling enough to seek out on my radio or music library. There's just so much nowadays I change the station for but I rarely did that in 2006, other than massive overplay.

Finally starting this. I got 46 songs ranked right off the bat, so that's a good start. There's maybe 15 I haven't ranked that I know, but just need another listen to catch back up with it to rank it fairly. There's also probably a few I know that I don't know just by looking at the name. My #109 and #110 are pretty set, unless a first listen really throws me a curveball. I won't have a strong #1 I think, but overall, my Top 10 is going to be very tight knit.
I'll be listening to the playlist for the rest of the night, so hopefully I can get this in tonight or tomorrow morning.

Submitted!
I'll be honest and say my #1 is pretty weak here โย I love the song, but in most rankdowns it would never be a #1 for me. I just didn't have a surefire #1 this time, which could have been fixed if bboat considered "Love in a Bar" but I digress; I'M NOT BBITTER. Overall, this is a real solid list. I'd say I only dislike my bottom 9 maybe? A decent amount of meh songs, but I don't start disliking songs till #101.

I'm gonna complete my list tonight. I haven't been participating in many rankdowns and I'm pissed about it (mainly the 2006 country one).

Update time!!!!! I know what you are all thinking. FINALLY!!! Where the heck has this loser been?? Is this even still happening?? Of course it is, my friends, and how dare you lose faith in me. I can't wait to get this started!!! This rankdown is going to be fire! The bad news is, after starting my student teaching this month, I have fallen behind on entering lists... And given the inevitable flurry of last-minute lists that is going to happen today (and has already begun, lol) I will be even more behind on lists. I am going to sit down for a few hours right now and enter as many as I can, but we honestly will have to play it by ear to see how quickly I can get them done. That being said, this will be starting very soon!!! I will post some questions to get us started after the deadline passes tonight Without further ado, here is our list of participants, as of right now!1. bboat11 2. George Strait Junkie 3. austin 4. raylatch98 5. phil1996 6. Kanenrรก:ke 7. @countricana 8. rgreen0625 9. zaclord ๐ 10. recordyear 11. bigfan101 12. someguy 13. dm2081 14. @walker9 15. castleoblivion26 16. Daryl the Beryl 17. LBTrocks 18.

DistrictTwelve 33. Mr. Thonk Eyes 34. BackwoodsBarbie 35. tim You guys, I am at this turnout. If anybody else would like to join, you are still more than welcome to! We would love to have you!!! (Also I believe we are still one submission away from being the largest country rankdown... Didn't fearlessarrow have 36 participants for the first Taylor Swift album?) So let's beat that record, y'all!!!!!! The deadline for this is still technically tonight, but if you submit before I am done entering lists, I will still take it So you might have a couple extra days, but don't let it lull you into complacency! As soon as I finish entering lists, you will be Bye bye now, you'll hear more from me later .indulgecountry aerodynamite Leo โ Daryl the Beryl jtd Thee Stallion @walker9 Sambalada Red Disco๐ถ๏ธ๐ Az Paynter YotamTS zaclord ๐ castleoblivion26 fearlessarrow Kanenrรก:ke born crazyb Pollen @jamesflame rgreen0625 Mr. Thonk Eyes someguy bboat11 dm2081 awesomecharts DistrictTwelve austin LBTrocks Cody Wants Out...

bboat11 I believe I had 35 participants for Taylor Swift, which means it's already at a tie! But it is only fitting that a big year-end multi-artist rankdown becomes the one with the most participants!

that was an awesome update post, more Martina please!
Seriously though I cannot wait for this list because while there was a bunch of terrible songs from this year, this year kinda reignited my love for Country music that I haven't felt in a couple years
