#21 didn't leave the bottom 10 until very late. Its 5 bottom 6s, one being a #36, held it back, but gradually it accumulated 4 top 18s, 1 top 10, and 5 top 5s (1 of them the next #1 loser). Another perfect ranking scored as well.

Back-to-back #1 losses! #20 has that, 2 more top 5s, 3 more top 10s, and 5 more top 18s. One person gets another perfect ranking. 5 bottom 6s, and they are all one of two numbers. One clears their bottom 6

The final song to miss the top half will not be a happy sight for some, as, after some early struggles, this song was in fact top 18 the rest of the way, until the final movement. Only 1 bottom 6, but 7 other bottom 10 sandbags made up for that. They come at the expense of 4 top 18s, 4 top 10s, and 2 top 5s. One person will be happy, though, as they ranked this song exactly on the dot.

#18 was carried to this position by 3 top 5s, 2 top 10s, and 6 top 18s. 5 bottom 6s, one of which is a 36. This song was at least top 20 for most of the rankdown, though it got as low as 23 late before slipping back upward.

#17 is the 5th highest SD, and also brings back the #1 losses. 2 more top 5s, 4 more top 10s, and 4 more top 18s. 5 bottom 6s vanish, also being different numbers. This song started out high, then fell into the bottom 10 wilderness for much of the rest of the process before mounting a late comeback.

That’s kinda funny bc “Darkness on the Edge of Town” isn’t really one of my favourite Springsteen songs tbh, it’s cool but he’s definitely made better imo

We're still not in the territory of songs having majority top 18s--#16 has only 11 of those ranks overall. It only has 1 top 5, too, though 5 other ranks are top 10. Perhaps the lack of bottom 10s (6) elevated this song. Someone clears their bottom 6, but only one poster joined them that low. This song started out in the top 10, and never left the top 18.

Had this lower originally, but a second listen made me bump it up a few spots, but I couldn't rank it higher with the quality of the songs ahead of it

#15 is the 4th highest SD. A #1 is one of the 4 top 5s. 3 more top 10 and 5 top 18s are shelved as well, one being a perfect ranking. There are 5 bottom 4s, two being very low and one being a bottom 6 clearer. This logged some top 10 mileage early

#14 continues the high SD trend, as the 3rd highest. 3 #36s are carved away, along with 2 more bottom 3s. 6 top 18s, one being a perfect ranking, 4 top 10s, and 4 top 5s will lament the loss of this song. It spent all of its top 18 time early and late, though it never fell into the bottom 10.

I know some of you love Bjork and most things that she touches, but she sounded AWFUL here.

Thanks for the input wimp sorry you couldn't handle the fire she was spitting #13 was yet another song that was low in the beginning and middle but crept up late. 2 people lose top 5s, 5 top 10s, and 8 top 18s (the most so far). 5 Bottom 6s, and 3 of those ranks clear their ranges.

#12 has to see this finish as a disappointment, because it spent almost all of the rankdown in the top 15/10. It will certainly sadden 2 top 5s, 4 top 10s, and 6 top 18s. Only 1 bottom 6, but 6 more bottom 10s.

#11 is sort of lucky to be this high, as it only has 11 total top 18s to its name. The difference is, those rankings were pretty high--all were top 15s, 1 was top 10, and 6 were top 5 (one being a painful #1 loss). There were only 6 bottom 10s, too, although half were bottom 6. After starting out in the 20s, this song spent most of the first half of the rankdown in the top 10, and never fell below 13 in the second half.

{WELL, IT SOMEHOW DIDN'T OCCUR TO ME THAT YOU MIGHT UPDATE EARLY, SO HERE'S A WORD WALL}#23: I kind of don't want to admit this, but I've never listened to Zen Arcade in full, only parts of it. This is really odd, because I've loved every song I've heard, and, of course, that includes "Something I Learned Today". Absolute fire. #22: Really good, but I simply could not rank it higher due to the difficulty of this rankdown. That happened a lot here. #21: "Doc Indie Party Rock - 9" insert "say what now?" here Don't worry, everyone...revenge is coming. #20: I struggled ranking this song the most. There are parts that I really like, especially the ending, but I think it just goes on a little too long. It's a big eye-opener for anyone who just knows AC for the big hits, at any rate. #19: Yep, it's what you mentioned that inspired me to rank it as high as I did. Obviously, it's my toughest top half omission, but I don't think that sells how tough it was to leave it out of my top half. #18: You lost the good will from the Dio reveal, Lord. But seriously, I really like "Darkness" a lot. I wouldn't say that it's on par with "Born to Run" or "Thunder Road", but there's a reason it's beloved by Bruce's fans. #17: I have always struggled with "Turnover". It's objectively really good, but...I don't know, it has just never really clicked. For that matter, neither has Repeater.#16: Running tally of bottom ten songs that I absolutely love: 5 #15: Honestly, after all of the top tens and really, REALLY close songs to my top ten that I've lost so far, bring it. No, but really, I really liked every song in this rankdown. This is just the song that left the least impression on me. I find it funny, though not surprising, that it was my last bottom 6...and almost my last bottom ten. #14: Objectively one of the most interesting songs in this rankdown. I look forward to revisiting it in 1988. #13: Running tally of bottom ten songs that I absolutely love: 6...and, honestly, I really should bold that one, because this song making my bottom ten feels so, so wrong. How did DINOSAUR JR. end up here? #12: Speaking of songs I'm shocked that I have as low as I do, hello, early Replacements! This is really good, but, one more time, I have to stress...tough rankdown. #11: Wow, I thought for sure this would make the top ten...though, looking at the songs that did make the top ten, I'm not sure what it could have replaced. That set turned around in a hurry, lol. I went from wondering if I was going to have multiple bottom tens in the top ten to only having top half songs in said top ten, including my top four. I would have no issues with any potential winner going forward, really.
