I'm pleasantly surprised how long "If You're Thinking You Want A Stranger" managed to last, considering it's not one of his better-known hits, and it is pretty dated! I'll consider this one to be a victory for George :)

Eh the production of Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind the album is not that dated at all. His vocal is not too far from today's vocals comparing to his first few albums which sound so rough...It probably has his better melody arrangements in the 80s too. The Cowboy Rides Away in particular has great fiddles.

"Think About Us" might feel like a pretty random song to have at #1, especially when there are so many Martina songs to choose from... But tbh, this song is quite possibly the favorite rankdown discovery I have ever made. I didn't take it super seriously at first, but for whatever reason this song has continued to grow on me more every single time I have heard it! Jo Dee seriously must have sold her soul to turn in a vocal performance this strong. Her voice has an odd raspy texture to it that I have never heard from her before; it makes her voice sound older and more mature than it did throughout her years of radio fame. And yet if it is some kind of effect of age, it has absolutely no negative effect whatsoever on the power of her voice! She owns every single note of this song, despite how hard of a song this is to sing. I probably could have had a different song at #1, but tbh I have really been feeling this song lately I have no regrets! I just have to thank my fellow top 10 rankers for helping me make sure this at least made the top 30 :)

So sad to see it out already, it definitely deserved better.

Despite all the tanking of George Strait in this rankdown, LBTrocks' #1 managed to survive several rounds of #1 losses!!! He's probably been sitting there expecting it to leave during every single set for like 2 weeks now

One of the greatest songs of ALL TIME.

Kinda crazy that "It Gets Better" actually occupied the #1 spot at one time. It was after only a few lists and clearly didn't last at all, but still that's interesting.

Her voice has an odd raspy texture to it that I have never heard from her before; it makes her voice sound older and more mature than it did throughout her years of radio fame. Probably a reason why I don't like this song that much tbh And the melody is not particularly memorable either.
