Also for the newbies playing along for the first time, the term "Closeness" just means that is the average of how close to the collective rank that your rank was! I'm happy to explain more if you have questions :)

"Little Girl Don't Grow Up Too Fast" is really underrated imo. It's great how traditionally country it is in sound. "Clock Don't Stop" better be out next or I'll be upset, lol.

"Little Girl Don't Grow Up Too Fast" was our second lowest SD. But the overall lowest standard deviation pops in at #13! What could it be!?

Clock Don't Stop or Mexico I'm guessing.
The Target track was on the dull side.

"Clock Don't Stop" is the one B-level song on an album loaded with A-level songs. Wish it would've been out first, but at least it didn't make it too far.

A small chunk of this album works a quasi-late 90s adult pop vibe, and this is one of them. I had it lower initially, but ended moving it up a few spots.

Alright, that's it for tonight folks! Here are my thoughts on the 4 revealed tonight!
*Little Girl Don't Grow Up Too Fast This is cute, but also kinda snoozy. Carrie sounds great on this, but it just never felt quite right to me. I think it feels a little forced coming from her. If she wanted to have a song about not growing up too fast, I wish she would have written a song more personal about Isaiah instead of just singing about a random little girl. I don't think she wrote this (can't find that info anywhere but I didn't try hard), but still. Not sad its out first.
*The Girl You Think I Am This one is just incredibly boring. I can barely remember how it goes. I like the sentiment behind it but I just never loved it.
*Clock Don't Stop What a terrible melody. The chorus of this song is pretty grating. I actually really like some of the lyrics (the "burned from a band of gold" line is really clever), but most of the lyrics are lazy and the melody just does not do it any favors, especially the chorus.
*Mexico Super catchy, but I also feel like she's trying a bit too hard with this one. I think much of my problem with this album is its just not as believable. I think Carrie is typically a really great storyteller, however, I think she fell flat more often than not in this album. Its not all her fault because I think the songs they/she chose don't do her much justice, but just something about songs like "Mexico" just feel forced. She was much more believable in "Somethin' Bad" than in "Mexico". I like this one, but this is where it belongs. Not too sad its out.
