Halleloo - welcome to the gayest RD in herstory! That's right, we'll be ranking every song ever used for a lip sync (in any form) on RuPaul's Drag Race.
I've wanted to do this for a while, but wasn't sure exactly how to go about it. I've decided to do it similarly to the Carrie album series/rock albums series, where each season is its own RD, but they'll all be in the same thread. That means we'll be starting with Season 1, which only has seven songs used, so every list could end up changing the winner!
Due to the relatively short list, I'll set the deadline to three weeks from now: the 21st April.
Sending info: 1. Listen to each song and rank them from #1 to #7 (or however many songs there are for each season). 2. Send me (@ samosaurus1/samo🦕) your list (and make sure it's numbered, or I may enter your ranks incorrectly). 3. If you need to make an edit, please notify me a.s.a.p. 4. You're ranking the songs, not their lip syncs. 4. Please listen to every song; it's not fair if you just put the songs you've already heard high, or base your ranks on how much you like the artist.
RuPaul - Supermodel (You Better Work) Michelle Williams - We Break the Dawn Whitney Houston - Greatest Love of All The Eurhythmics - Would I Lie to You? Britney Spears - Stronger Mary Mary - Shackles (Praise You) RuPaul - Cover Girl
Supermodel (You Better Work) We Break the Dawn Greatest Love of All Would I Lie to You? Stronger Shackles (Praise You) Cover Girl To help with your lists, here's a preference revealer and a line numberer, as well as a Spotify playlist:
And I think that's all!Good luck, and don't f**k it up.

Ballot Update!Being busy with exams means I'll be doing less of these, but I'll try to fit them in every 5 lists. Anyway, I've got a 5th list from @doinktheclown, so here's the first ballot update: - The #7s are spread between 4 songs, and the only one with two #7s is fittingly in last place.
- The #1s are less spread out, with only three songs receiving them. The current #1 already has multiple #1s.
- The highest SD belongs to #3 (which hasn't got any 4s or 5s yet).
- The lowest SD belongs to #2 (which hasn't got any bottom 2s yet, nor a #1).
- The gap between #1 and #2 is already 9 points, and the gap between #6 and #7 is 5 points. Aside from that, every gap is 2 points or less.

1 DAY REMAININGThanks to a sudden influx of lists bringing us to 11 in total, I won't need to extend this any further, so lists will be due at midnight on Monday (~27 hours from now). 1. samo🦕 2. stunnedout 3. Zeebz 4. Kanenrá:ke 5. @doinktheclown 6. @trilogy 7. jtd Thee Stallion 8. .indulgecountry 9. Chelsea Press 2 10. Wavey✨️ 11. SHOOTER Having reached 10 lists, it's time for another ballot update! (with 11 lists, since Wavey✨️ and SHOOTER only sent a few hours apart) - The #1 hasn't left the top since the last update - it's 15 points ahead of #2 (by far the largest gap in the game) and has 6/11 #1s.
- The #7 was actually tied for 1st at one point, but several low ranks in a row plummeted it.
- The lowest SD was a tie between #1 and #3 as of Wavey✨️'s list, but the #1 has retaken it.
- The highest SD belongs to #2, which has had the highest for most of the game, being the only song with multiple #1s and multiple #7s.
- Two songs have no #1s (#5 and #6) and two songs have no #7s (#1 and #3).

I just finished season 9, kinda can't wait for that seasons list! It had a good selection of songs despite some pretty mediocre lipsyncs.

Final Ballot Update!- #1 is still far ahead of #2, with a 14-point gap, while #7 has 9 less points than #6.
- Only the top 2 have reached 50 points, and #7 is the only song not to reach 40 points.
- The highest SD remains unchanged, with #2 having one 0.176 higher than the rest.
- The lowest SD is still in first place, almost 0.2 ahead of #4 (the 2nd lowest).
- #5 and #6 still have no #1s, and #4 and #1 still have no #7s.
This is a graph showing the points each song has obtained (without the actual song names, obviously). As you can see, the #1 ran away with the win, which was pretty clear from the first few lists. With that done, here are a few pre-reveal questions you guys can answer: 1. Which song do you think will win? 2. Which songs will make up the rest of the top 3? 3. Which song do you think will be #7? 4. Which songs will make up the rest of the bottom 3? 5. What do you expect to have the lowest/a low SD? 6. What do you expect to have the highest/a high SD? 7. Where do you think/hope your #1 will place?

I'm not mad that the questions haven't been answered yet or anything like that (with only 12 participants, it's not that surprising), it's just that I was planning on starting reveals after at least a couple of people answered.

We're beginning tonight's reveals with #7, which wasn't really a last-place contender until the second half, where consecutive low ranks brought it down fast. These also increased its SD from the 2nd lowest to the 4th highest/lowest. Path: #/1.5/3/3.5/4/4/5/5.5/6/7/7/7 Highest rank: 1 Lowest rank: 7 (x5) (most of the game)

The next song out (and the last one I'll have time for tonight) was in last place for most of the game, due to it having no #1s and very few early high ranks. It's tied with another song for the 2nd highest SD. Path: #/5/7/7/7/7/7/7/7/6/6/6 Highest rank: 2 (x2) Lowest rank: 7 (x3)
