2. "If Love Was Fair"
"I wouldn't be replaying what it was and what it wasn't Or thinking I could change if I only saw it coming It wouldn't take everything I have to rise above it There'd be some kind of peace Yeah, there'd be some kind of justice"
1. "The Blade"
"For you, it's over; for me, it's not I kept trying and you just stopped Now I know how you can sound so brave Cause you caught it by the handle, baby And I caught it by the blade"

It may not be my personal favorite but "The Blade" is the rightful winner here, such a gorgeous song that deserves all the acclaim it gets! I honestly never would've guessed "If Love Was Fair" would end up anywhere in the top 3. I love it but I just didn't know it had this kind of love behind it. I thought "Bombshell" would've been the runner up! g8erboi thanks for hosting this! Which album we doing next?!

Never expected “If Love Was Fair” to make the top 2 so I’m thrilled that my #1 made it as it’s been my favorite track since the first time I listened to this album. “The Blade” was a close second for me and is a well deserved winner. Thanks again for launching this g8erboi and I’m really looking forward to the next album!

Wow, what a stellar top three. Really would’ve been happy with any of my top five winning. I revisit “On To Something Good” more often (underrated!), but ugh “The Blade” is just perfect so I’m def not mad.
Thanks for hosting, v fun!!

"The Blade" is an absolutely perfect song and I'm glad everyone had the good sense to rank it in their top 5s so I didn't have to judge anybody for questionable taste. Such an obvious yet totally deserving winner. This album is a masterpiece and that song is the crown jewel. Thanks for hosting, g8erboi! I'll probably have my ranks in for Like a Rose soon cause that'll be a much easier one for me to rank.

There are quite a few lower ranking for Has Anybody Ever Told You so my taste isn't problematic! Like me some darker songs such as I Buried Your Love Alive! Orphan from her newest album also nailed this sound! I like the music video of Bombshell more than the song itself. I wonder what she wrote at the end. Both If Love Was Fair and The Blade were featured in Would Have Been Singles RD and end up being higher than On to Something Good. Guess they should have been singles after all! Thanks for hosting.

Sent! I found this one almost harder to rank than The Blade and again wish I could just lump all these songs into the Top 3

This entire album is literally equal in quality... It may only be 9 songs, but this is impossible!

This entire album is literally equal in quality... It may only be 9 songs, but this is impossible! So is it a praise or else? It is definitely a great album! I will say that since it is such an even level of quality, there is nothing that jumps out at me as an immediate standout the way "The Blade" did on the last album... So that is partly why I had so much trouble ranking it. I had trouble picking which songs to put towards the top over others. So in a way I guess it could be a bad thing that nothing stands out from the album? But the album as a whole is an awesome album! Another way to explain it, to me it's a case where literally every song would be like 8.5 or 9 out of 10. Whereas a normal album for me has a few 10/10s, several 8/10s, and at least one that goes down to like 6/10. (Lmao I am very easy on my ratings of songs... )

1) Which song will win this rankdown? I'm going to guess "Used" or the title track
2) Which song will come in last place? No clue...maybe the Blake Shelton duet "You Ain't Dolly (And You Ain't Porter)" or "The Morning After"
3) Which song will be the most polarizing? "The Morning After"
4) Which song will be the least polarizing? "Like a Rose"
5) Any other thoughts/predictions/comments? This is another stellar album and I didn't know it was co-produced by Vince Gill until I looked up the details of the album when listening to it. I really have no idea how this rankdown will go TBH.

1) Which song will win this rankdown? I can definitely see "Used" winning. It would be nice if "She's Driving Me Out of Your Mind" made it far though.
2) Which song will come in last place? The Blake duet?
3) Which song will be the most polarizing? "Weed Instead of Roses" maybe?
4) Which song will be the least polarizing? "Monroe Suede."
5) Any other thoughts/predictions/comments? I don't really mind how this rankdown turns out. I have my favorites, but the majority of the album is great, so I can't really be disappointed whichever way it goes

1) Which song will win this rankdown? I'll go ahead and predict the title track, although tbh I don't think anything on this album really stands out enough to be a runaway winner. I could see all 9 songs being incredibly close to each other. Such a consistent album, and that's a good thing!
2) Which song will come in last place? Again, such a consistent album, I doubt there will be an obvious last-place contender. Although I do think "You Ain't Dolly (And You Ain't Porter)" will probably be last place. Simply having Blake be part of it is enough to put a target on its back that the rest of the songs don't have.
3) Which song will be the most polarizing? Probably the Blake duet, or else "Weed Instead of Roses". WIOR is an awesome song melodically, but the lyrics definitely could turn people off.
4) Which song will be the least polarizing? Probably the title track.
5) Any other thoughts/predictions/comments? This is such a consistent album, I literally don't care how it turns out... I really enjoy every song, but there are also no standout favorites. So no matter what, the outcome is going to be pretty great!
