2010 Country Rankdown (Revealing)

[sabre14]

Time for another year-end rankdown. bboat11 was gracious enough to give me the duties for 2010-2012. 2008 should be wrapped up by Saturday.

There are 126 songs in this rankdown and while I understand that's a lot, you will have nearly three months to complete it. The deadline will be September 24th. Since I am doing 2011, I'm saving a couple for that year, that could have been included for 2010. Also didn't include duplicates from zaclord 🌈 's 2009 rankdown.

Just inserted the link to the Spotify playlist. The playlist name is 2010 Country Rankdown, if you have any further trouble. I will likely add in YouTube links for ALL the songs at some point.

[Cody Wants Out...]

Two of my favorite ZBB songs are on here!

[sabre14]

I have just linked to the Spotify playlist in the OP. If you have any trouble, the name of the playlist is 2010 Country Rankdown, if you just want to search it. I plan on putting YouTube links in for all the song in at some point.

[CoJoFan]

James Wesley is another artist I thought was going to be big. Another one I was wrong on but Jackson Hole and Real were stellar in my opinion.

[castleoblivion26]

just looking at the list I know I'm probably gonna end up doing horribly because a lot of my favorites from this year were not big hits unfortunately (though some definitely were, including my #1). I look forward to listening to these songs again, some of which I haven't listened to in quite some time

[CoJoFan]

Also hopefully either over the weekend or first of the week I'll do this and the 1999 rankdown but this one has probably one of the most hideous songs to ever chart in the Billboard Top 40. In my opinion I think it ruined this artists career for me so bad I'm surprised they've had a top 40 hit since. By the way I'm 100% positive it will be my last place song.

[LBTrocks]

Well my rankings will be as popular as ever with this one, lol. Lots of great songs here... but also some dreck, for sure, and I will make sure to rank accordingly.

I’ll make sure to do this before midnight on September 6th 😛😂

[bboat11]

Bless you sabre14! Lol I don't know why this one seems to be so hard for me to get done, but it is just reeeeeaallly taking a long time!

[CoJoFan]

Gonna try to do this tonight or tomorrow sometime.

[bboat11]

I'm about halfway done with this. I'll try to finish tonight :)

Those who have forgotten to do this, DON'T FORGET TO DO THIS!!!!!

[Cody Wants Out...]

I finally submitted my list! Found quite a bunch of great discoveries and clunkers amongst this mixed bag of stuff and things.

[sabre14]

So I’m still waiting on a few lists, so I’m going to extend this until October 11th at 12 am EST. I know, I said Monday would be the final deadline but this will DEFINITELY be it lol. Please don’t wait til 10 pm on Thursday night...LBTrocks lol.
