Smooth or Baby Let’s Lay Down and Dance should be bottom 2. I don’t know anyone really defending either of those and I know most people will have those both in their bottom 10/20. Also I know Better Man has at least two haters so y’all don’t get too complacent with it being a surefire #1. Hoping it had a far enough lead so that the troll doesn’t drag it down though. I like Smooth so I don't think that'll be Bottom 2. Unpopular opinion. Maybe My Girl or You Broke Up With Me. I don't know. I feel like the #110 is locked in but what's #109 is a complete mystery.

My Girl and You Broke Up With Me both better NOT be bottom 10. How anyone can like either song is besides me. I figured both songs were universally panned by basically everybody. I really hope they both end up in the Bottom 10 myself.

Would love to get a perfect ranking with either of my bottom two. @walker9 I see "My Girl" barely escaping the bottom 20, but "You Broke Up With Me" might not make it out alive. Who knows? Only bboat11 does!

I know some people tanked Better Man, we probably will see another winner.
I'll cut every bottom 105 ranker for Better Man.

1. Which songs will end up in the top 10? - "Better Man", "In Case You Didn't Know", "Marquee Sign", "Drinkin' Problem", "I Could Use a Love Song", "Tin Man", "Five More Minutes", "Sober Saturday Night", "Road Less Travelled"...I'm not sure what else. I'm thinking there'll be a few surprises somewhere. 2. Which songs will end up in the bottom 10? - "Smooth", one or both of Garth's songs, "Flatliner" (wishful thinking on my part), maybe a Blake Shelton song, "Own It", one of Granger Smith's songs, "For Her", maybe something from Dustin Lynch to ruffle .indulgecountry 's tailfeathers? 3. Which song will be #1? - No idea. Thinking ICYDK is most likely. 4. Which song will be #110? - No idea. Maybe "Smooth"? 5. Which song will have the highest standard deviation? - "Make You Mine", "Body Like a Back Road", "You Look Good", "Heartache on the Dance Floor", "All the Pretty Girls" (maybe not, but it's burned on me big time), "Hometown Girl", "What Ifs", idk 6. Which song will have the lowest standard deviation? - One or both of the Tim and Faith duets, "Somethin' I'm Good At", "Back to God", "Seein' Red", hopefully "How Not To", "Dirty Laundry", "Tin Man", "The Weekend", idk 7. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? - "Better Man" 8. Which song by a female vocalist will be the first to be eliminated? How soon will it go? - "Own It"; bottom 10 or 20. 9. Which breakthrough song by an acclaimed newcomer will place higher: "Every Little Thing", "Hurricane", "In Case You Didn't Know", "Drinkin' Problem", or "What Ifs"? - "In Case You Didn't Know" or "Drinkin' Problem" 10. Any other thoughts/predictions???! - I see my #1 barely making the top 40, but besides that, I didn't like that many songs from last year and this year isn't looking too promising. Some of these were just abominations that shouldn't have even made the drawing board, let alone radio. And yeah, one more thing; please don't make me regret participating in this

I'm going to get shit for my #80, 83, and 84, but I don't care. I don't hate those songs, but I just never liked them and only find them to be okay.

My bottom 12 has four critics favorites.....including songs that some are predicting to make the top 10.
I have thick skin. Go for it.

I'm about to go to the grocery store to buy some sage to burn when this rankdown starts so that the ghost of Green Baron does not try and creep in and take over my body because I feel it coming with all these comments.

bboat11 bitch I answered the question and I'm not a nobody. I guess you and gravey are the only ones who care enough to follow the rankdown without me needing to tag you

1. Which songs will end up in the top 10? "Better Man", the Maren Morris songs ("80s Mercedes" and "I Could Use a Love Song"), "In Case You Didn't Know" (hopefully the tankers don't do enough damage here), "Road Less Traveled", "Tin Man" 2. Which songs will end up in the bottom 10? "Smooth", "Baby, Let's Lay Down and Dance", "Ask Me How I Know", "Own It", "Light It Up" 3. Which song will be #1? "Better Man"? I can see people tanking the song so maybe one of the Maren Morris songs might take it as well. 4. Which song will be #110? "Smooth" 5. Which song will have the highest standard deviation? "Body Like a Back Road" 6. Which song will have the lowest standard deviation? This one is hard. Maybe the Garth Brooks songs since no one seems to like them? 7. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? "Better Man" 8. Which song by a female vocalist will be the first to be eliminated? How soon will it go? Bailey Bryan's "Own It". I'm expecting a bottom 10 finish for that one. 9. Which breakthrough song by an acclaimed newcomer will place higher: "Every Little Thing", "Hurricane", "In Case You Didn't Know", "Drinkin' Problem", or "What Ifs"? This is a difficult one. I wanna say "In Case You Didn't Know" but I can see the pop posters boosting "What Ifs" so I think it'll be between the two. 10. Any other thoughts/predictions???! I need to do whatever zaclord 🌈's doing and go buy some sage to burn because I feel like there are some of you with sad taste :sip2:

Hey guys! The last list has FINALLY been all squared away, and now we can get started!!! First of all, here is a graph showing the point distribution for the entire rankdown: As you can see, our last-place song was a runaway loser! The bottom 4 is pretty close together after that, before a sizable drop to the #106 song. Overall, the slope for this rankdown was impressively homogeneous. There are blips and bumps along the way, but for the most part we see a pretty even reduction in points throughout the bulk of the rankdown (with a minor plateau in the 60s where songs were much closer together). There is a noticeable drop into the top 50, and then the slope flattens a bit, because there are several song in that region of the chart that were pretty close in their rankings. Once we reach the top 30, however, the slope suddenly gets noticeably steeper. You can tell that the songs towards the top of the rankdown belonged in the top of the rankdown, because the noticeable increase in slope angle shows that the songs started to run away with their leads. There is a significant drop into the top 10, because the songs towards the top really started to gather a bunch of support and run away with their leads. Of course the largest slope of the rankdown can be found in the top 5, because all of those songs generated a ton of support and stood head over shoulders above their peers, but none of them were even close to overtaking the one above them. Of course, our #1 was a runaway victor. Will it match up with your wishes or expectations for the top? You'll have to wait and see! I think I have tagged everyone who showed interest in following along as well as those who participated, but if anybody else wants to be tagged, please let me know! bboat11 George Strait Junkie austin raylatch98 phil1996 Kanenrá:ke @countricana rgreen0625 zaclord 🌈 recordyear bigfan101 someguy dm2081 @walker9 castleoblivion26 Daryl the Beryl LBTrocks CoJoFan @nickv1025 Cody Wants Out...

I can't wait! Also, I may have to steal that graph idea for my RDs. Yeah, I think it is such a cool visual! I just did it for the first time at the start of the George Strait rankdown, so this is the second ever rankdown totals graph. It is fascinating to see the overall trend in point values, as far as which regions of the list were fairly close, which ones ran away with their positions, etc. I guess it also kinda shows you where the real power players are, like which region of the chart got the most unanimous support, which in this case I would say is the top 30.

Truthfully speaking, Garth should be #110 and #109 considering his songs aren't available anywhere except Amazon Prime Music. :sip2:
