This is such a great album. IMO, there is one clear standout though, and I hope it wins!

1. What is going to finish with the smallest SHeBANG and land in last place? First off love that wording haha I think there's 3 in contention imo. but will guess "Without Your Love" 2. Which single will fare the worst? Where will it place? "Still Holding Out For You" - 8? 3. "I Will...But" won the SHeDAISY singles rankdown, can it duplicate that performance with a win here? It will...but I want an album track to win!! 4. How did you feel about the album? a.k.a. Perfection!

1. What is going to finish with the smallest SHeBANG and land in last place?
âWithout Your Loveâ
2. Which single will fare the worst? Where will it place?
"Still Holding Out For You" in the 8-10 range
3. "I Will...But" won the SHeDAISY singles rankdown, can it duplicate that performance with a win here?
Hopefully!
4. How did you feel about the album?
Easily their best. While I like their other albums, they were never able to replicate the magic of this album again.

1. What is going to finish with the smallest SHeBANG and land in last place? Probably "'Cause I Like It That Way" since it's my fav album track here.2. Which single will fare the worst? Where will it place? "Still Holding Out For You" @ 6 or 73. "I Will...But" won the SHeDAISY singles rankdown, can it duplicate that performance with a win here? Yep. I'm fairly certain of it. But if not that, "Little Good-Byes"4. How did you feel about the album? ABSOLUTELY ADORE IT!!! There's nothing on it I downright dislike. Even my last place is good but idk why I would listen to it when a far superior version exists on their remix album

One of the few true love ballads in SHeDAISYâs catalog, âWithout Your Loveâ kicks things off here with a last place ranking. The ballad was a last minute addition to the album when the label suggested the only thing missing was a proper love songâŠbut maybe it should have stayed off. This is our only song to see NO Top 5 submissions, and it hung out at #11 from the very first list. Austin's take: This is probably one of my least favorite songs in their catalog so I am happy to see it not fare well here. I always say bad SHeDAISY is better than good for other artists but I think this one is kinda bad all around. It doesnât really feel authentically them, and is pretty boring. What I love about SHeDAISY is they didnât sound like anyone else, but this one sounded like anyone could have sung it. REMIX VERSION:
Honestly? This remix version is much better than the standard album version, it almost feels like a Lion King soundtrack song to me! Nothing that makes me want to not keep this in last place, but better.

With only three top 5 rankings, ââCause I Like It That Wayâ is the next song to bow out of this rankdown. The uptempo toe-tapping country-pop excellence here is SHeDAISY doing what they do best and telling a man exactly how its gonna be. LOL. I thought this one was gonna stay a little longer to be honest, but we didnât like it that way. We see three bottom ranks exit here as well. Austin's take: This is a fun song but on an album this strong it just doesnât stand out. I like a lot of what Kristyn is doing in the verses of this one, particularly the cave/caveman vibe in the second verse. This isnât one I revisit all that much, honestly, but I donât change it if it shuffles on. REMIX VERSION:
I actually listen to this version over the album version. Itâs a little over the top but the lyrics kind of work better as a pop song IMO. I think this is one people should check out if they didnât love the original track!

Well, we donât have to wait for heaven to dance with angels in this one! We lose âDancing With Angelsâ, the albumâs closing track early here in this rankdown. The upbeat, uplifting number relates a true love to being as sweet as heaven, long before it became so clichĂ© to do so! Not a lot of passion for this one, though we do see a Top 5 ranking from KanenrĂĄ:ke and Cody Wants Out... . Austin's take: I was a little surprised to see so many 10/11 ranks for this one, honestly. I think it has a good singalong chorus and a nice beat once it gets going (though I can see the long intro kinda turning people off!). This used to open shows back during this âeraâ and it was a fun (unexpected) show opener! REMIX VERSION:
This one makes me wanna go to the club! I like the risks they took at times with this remix album even if the album itself is largely unnecessary. This one works for me and adds some fun elements, but I would choose the standard edition for an everyday listen.

A crushing blow to KanenrĂĄ:ke with his #1 leaving already here with âA Night to Rememberâ apparently being pretty easy for some of us to forget. The spinechilling tale of a woman who makes it an annivesary to remember for both her and her husband by driving them off a cliff has always been a fan favorite and was a thrill to hear them sing live. LBTrocks randomly and confusingly loses his #11 here, despite the confidence I have in his SHeDAISY taste. Austin's take: LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG AND IT HURT ME TO SEE IT SO LOW. The first of a few murder songs in SHeDAISYâs catalog, this one has an awesome storyline and the swap of words in the choruses are just so good. I love the harmonies too, letting the two other girls take the lead for the bridge. Love the ghostlike energy here. LOVE THIS. REMIX VERSION:
This version is loved very much by LBTrocks but it actually never did much for me. I like the country production of the original!

Despite seven top 5 rankings from a bunch of people with #taste, we see Punishment bow out at #7, the same number as it is on the tracklisting! Co-written by Carolyn Dawn Johnson, the song is a country-pop midtempo that stands out from the rest of the songs as probably the most pop-leaning track. Austin's take: This was a missed single opportunity, IMO. I would have loved to see this close the era (or even be the second single in place of This Woman Needs) as I think it was a HUGE hit waiting to happen. Itâs catchy and clever, and I just absolutely LOVE it. I wanted to pull a Trump and STOP THE COUNT after my list so it finished top 3. REMIX VERSION:
Love that they took the most pop-leaning track and turned it bluegrass, but I am not sure it works amazingly here. Sounds kinda carnival-like. But itâs worth a listen!

Our top placing album track comes SO close to landing in the Top 5, but falls short. Only 5 points separate it from our fifth placing track, and for a long while it actually was as high as #4 as lists came in, but the final few lists put it behind two singles for good. This album track is very often talked about as a missed single opportunity, and I do agree (though âPunishmentâ moreso ,IMO). Super clever lyrics here and just a feel good song all around. Austin's take: I was hoping to see this one beat a couple of the singles, but it didnât end up happening. I think this one is really catchy and its probably the only time SHeDAISY just uses a few lines and sings them roundabout for a chorus, and I kind of like that. REMIX VERSION:
This is my favorite remix on the album! A total departure from the original, and a kick ass rock sounding track. I revisit this one all the time! Bravo.
