I retired my red lipstick 'cause you said you didn't like it. I didn't wear my high heel shoes 'Cause I couldn't be taller than you. I didn't wanna lose my friends, but now it's hard to even find them. It's what you wanted, ain't it?

And here it is: the most polarizing song of the rankdown! People seem to be all over the map with this one. Before this rankdown I have heard so many people proclaiming this to be her future career song, and heralding it as the best thing she's ever released. Now through this rankdown I have learned that there is a lot of hate for this song as well! Three people put this at #1, which is the most of any song so far, but there were also 5 bottom 5 rankings.
I agree that this song would make an excellent single, so I wouldn't mind seeing it get released at some point. I think that Kelsea's attitude is on point here, and the production is pretty cool.
{Songs Remaining} Peter Pan Roses XO

Roses being the highest song from this incredible album is absurd. Get out. Bye.
Glad Peter Pan is winning this because the other two are overrated af

I definitely like it more than zaclord 🌈 seems to, despite us having the same rank :kii: I have come to really enjoy the production on this song, even though it is very poppy. It manages to be poppy without being generic, which is usually my biggest complaint with Kelsea's music. I think the way her voice is produced in the chorus really helps the song to pop, similar to what I believe I said about "Unapologetically". So I am definitely starting to enjoy it more, and I am okay seeing it do well here. I also wouldn't mind if it became a single eventually. {Songs Remaining} Peter Pan XO

With that, we say goodbye to Unapologetically, and both of the remaining songs are from The First Time!

Well I might be platinum blond, but I ain't dumb. Baby, I see you're here with me, but you ain't moved on. Sitting in the middle of a flame still burning, Boy, I ain't your match.

2. "XO" Total: 236 Average: 9.08
1. "Peter Pan" Total: 74 Average: 2.85
LMAO let me just highlight these point totals for a second..... I'd be inclined to wager a bet that this is the biggest ass-stomping ever delivered by a rankdown winner?

Here is an album breakdown:
The First Time 24. Sirens 22. Underage 20. Looking At Stars 19. Secondhand Smoke 17. Square Pegs 14. Stilettos 11. Yeah Boy 10. The First Time 7. Dibs 5. Love Me Like You Mean It 2. XO 1. Peter Pan
Average Placement: 12.67
Unapologetically 23. End Of The World 21. Machine Heart 18. Music 16. I Hate Love Songs 15. Graveyard 13. Unapologetically 12. High School 9. In Between 8. Legends 6. Get Over Yourself 4. Miss Me More 3. Roses
Average Placement: 12.33
So while The First Time managed to claim the top 2, it looks like Unapologetically just baaaaaaarely managed to sneak in the highest average for the placements of its songs! Talk about a close battle though! Her albums both performed super consistently here :)

Okay, I broke it down into average point totals as well. The First Time Total Points earned between all lists and all songs: 3856Average amount of points per user: 148.31Average amount of points per song: 321.33Unapologetically Total Points earned between all lists and all songs: 3944Average amount of points per user: 151.69Average amount of points per song: 328.67So based on point totals, The First Time wins! Whereas Unapologetically won based on actual placements. So it's up to you to decide which metric you feel is more valid. Personally I would probably go with the actual points earned, which means The First Time is the actual winner. But it is really just up to personal preference Really it's amazing that the battle was close enough for this to happen though! Usually if an album has a higher average of placements, it is also going to have a higher average for the amount of points that it earned. So the fact that the battle was close enough for different calculations to reveal different winners is just astounding! I guess we can tell Kelsea nice job for managing to create a second album that was just as consistently-liked as her first

Um, I was the person who ranked Peter Pan the lowest lol It's not bad at all, but I am surprised at how much you all liked it. It's just fine, but well, tastes are like that

I do really like “Peter Pan” so I’m not upset with it’s win
Also YAS at “Miss Me More” making the top 5 despite a few misguided tankers. Seriously one of the best songs EVER!!!! That production that melody... that epic jam of a drop! That deliciously dark and creepy minor key!
Forever obsessed with that flawless masterpiece of a song <3

Yessssss @ "Peter Pan" winning! Predictable, but it was the only truly correct winner imo, even though she has a lot of other great songs. Seeing "Miss Me More" and "Roses" finish as the highest songs from Unapologetically definitely reinforces my viewpoint that those two need to be the third and fourth singles from the album. Those both sound like smashes to me. Thanks for taking this over so it could finally start because jfc it was late af and being a great host bboat11!

Not a surprising winner, but I'm quite happy with it. I'm also very happy that "Roses", "Graveyard", and "Get Over Yourself" made it that high. "Miss Me More" went too far, IMO, lol, but I will let that slide, as the rest of the top 10 was very solid. Great game, and thank you for hosting! :)

Perfect top two. “XO” would’ve probably been my top choice so naturally I’m delighted to see that it made it this far. <3
