I could never get into "Back to Life." Nothing about it stood out to me and it was just always kind of 'there.' fearlessarrow also, you called it the wrong title in your intro blurb, lol.

"Back To Life" and "Summer Nights" are both horrendously horrendous. I hope more garbage is taken out in the upcoming reveals!

"Summer Nights" is easily their worst. As I said before, hearing Gary sing the word "sex-ay" is bottom of the barrel for their career. So glad it landed in the bottom 10 where it belongs.

Thank GOODNESS this garbage is out early. "Every DAYYYYYYYYY. Every DAYYYYYYYYYYYY. Every DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!" Truly horrible. Hearing Gary's shrill, whiny, nasally voice belting that out over and over again

Kudos to everyone who guessed the only album cut in this rankdown would finish in the bottom 10! The last song to miss the top 30 (only by 4 points!!) is "Here's to You", which was an album track from Feels Like Today that reached #48 on unsolicited airplay. One top 10 is lost here as well as four other top 20s. This was looking solid for a finish in the 20s (and even made a play for the top 20 at one point) but the last couple of ranks weren't too friendly to this song.
#31: "Here's to You" Album: Feels Like Today
Points: 284 (4 points ahead of "Every Day", 4 points behind #30) Standard Deviation: 8.681 Country Radio Peak (Billboard): #48

My favorite thing about this rankdown is LBTrocks bitchy comments against Rascal Flatts.

It’s truly astounding to me that three ugly guys with barely any talent with a horrible catalog of songs became so popular. Every song eliminated here is bad.

So I have an update: I started feeling sick a couple hours ago (right as the 2019 Alt RD reveals were about to wrap up too!!) so I actually ended up taking a nap and I feel a lot better... but that also means that I didn't come in and reveal anything tonight - I will hopefully be able to continue tomorrow! Sorry about that and see you tomorrow for another set of reveals!

They aren't my favourite act by any means, and I am pretty glad with the reveals so far. I like "Here's To You", but I am not surprised at all that it is out before the top 30.

"Back to Us" didn't last too much longer than "Back to Life", as the former finishes just 5 spots above the latter (47 point difference). The song was consistently in the top 30 until near the end when it felt out of the top 30, but was able to hang on to a #30 finish. This song peaked at #46 on country radio, making it Rascal Flatts' lowest-peaking single to date. We've seen so many of their title tracks already fall ("Unstoppable", "Changed", "Me and My Gang", and now "Back to Us"), which of their remaining title tracks ("I Melt", "Feels Like Today", "Rewind") will do the best?
#30: "Back to Us" Album: Back to Us
Points: 288 (4 points ahead of "Here's to You", 31 points behind #29) Standard Deviation: 8.977 Country Radio Peak (Billboard): #46

All terrible songs, but "Easy" is especially terrible.
"EEEEEESAAAY, going out on Friday night, EEEEEEEAAASY"
TRASH! Gary, sweetheart, your voice is terrible enough as is and then you screech these long drawn out words repeatedly in songs!?! Stop.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head so hard when "Easy" was announced as a single back then. And it still made the doggone top three (on country radio)?!?
