Oh, interesting! I had never even thought of an album series for her! I have honestly never paid much attention to Ashley Monroe, but I know that "The Blade" is an incredible song Anyway, I am 100% HERE for more album rankdowns! They are so much easier and faster than larger rankdowns. This will be a perfect chance to familiarize myself with her music :) |

I've said elsewhere that I'll not do rankdowns in the foreseeable future because I am too busy to do them.
However I'm familiar with her works and love them, so I will do this!

Mid-submissions fun facts!(For anyone who cares...)
The deadline is still over a week and a half away, but here are 10 facts about how things are going down thus far:
1.) Every song has at least one top 5 rank.
2.) The current #1 is 14 points ahead of the current #2.
3.) The #1 has changed just once from the first list to the most recent list.
4) The current last place (#13) is just 3 points behind the current #12.
5.) Four songs currently have a #13 rank.
6.) Five songs currently have a #1 rank.
7.) One song has gone from being #1 in the rankdown at one point to currently being #5.
8.) One song has started the rankdown in last place, oscillated positions a little bit, and is currently back in last place. I wonder if it's destined to be there in the end...
9.) One song has gone from being #4 to currently being #10.
10.) One song has been flip-flopping between #12 and #13, and is currently at #12.
Please get those lists in! Deadline is Friday, October 26th!

You can take me off, I hate her voice. Thanks for the initial tag though.

LMAO! Nice catch! I have two spreadsheets: one with each song and their respective ranks from each participant, and one with the paths of each song. I accidentally looked at the spreadsheet for the paths when typing fact #10, lol.  Fixed |

Sent.
I am still shocked at some of the background vocal credits. No way this album has Charlie Worsham or Marty Stuart. Also Chris Stapleton not doing any bg vocals is surprising (too overwhelming maybe?)

I can barely get my S*** together to do stuff I'm very familiar with (I only had to re-listen to a couple of tracks for B&D)...don't have the time to put into listening to multiple things for her. I do like her, however... |

Submissions are [supposed to be] due today! 
However, since I most likely won't be able to start reveals until next week, I am willing to accept lists through the weekend!

I'm sorry y'all but I will have to delay the reveals a bit (probably just a few days) due to a personal incident that happened. Once I get it straightened out, I will get this going asap!

Despite what many on here think, your personal life is more important than rankdowns! So take care of yourself and don't rush coming back to this, g8erboi :) |

2. Which song will finish at #13?
3. Most polarizing (highest SD)?
4. Least polarizing (lowest SD)?
5. Any other thoughts or predictions?

1. Which song will finish at #1? "The Blade"
2. Which song will finish at #13? Hmmm... gonna take a wild guess and say "Weight of the Load" or "Mayflowers"
3. Most polarizing (highest SD)? Gonna guess "Winning Streak"
4. Least polarizing (lowest SD)? "The Blade" -- anyone ranking this lower than Top 5 in their list is a liar so...
5. Any other thoughts or predictions? This will be fun because aside from me feeling fairly confident the title track will win, I don't have really any idea how these results are going to go for this one!
