Two things:
a) "Buzzcut Season" would have been in my top half or close to it in a normal rankdown, as it is good, but this was decidedly not a normal RD. b) whispers Not every Lorde song has to make the top ten, you know.

Nice, quite the run in a RD this stacked.

Songs in the Key of Life is a must-listen. Not every song on the album is one I particularly love, but the best songs on that album, like "As", are unreal.

This is great. And it STILL didn't make my top ten.
Hell, this isn't even the song that surprised me the most by missing my top ten.

I've never really cared for Sufjan, and I think I've made that abundantly clear in other rankdowns.
This, however, is one of the few songs that I do like.

Hell, this isn't even the song that surprised me the most by missing my top ten. Speak of the devil. Before this rankdown began, I thought "Midnight" was a lock for my top ten. Then, it really hit me just how good this top ten really was, and this song (somehow) found its way outside of my top ten at the end. I'm still not sure how the hell that happened, given that this is "Midnight in a Perfect World".

I've been betrayed, and it's not even the person I expected.
This song is drenched in atmosphere. It's downright suffocating. It's one of the saddest, most heartbreaking songs that has ever existed. Even on a good day, this song stops me in my tracks and makes me feel a little less happy. And yet, I can't stop myself from coming back for more. It's a song so good that I am willing to let it ruin my day, if it means that I get the chance to listen to it. Hell, it's a song so good that there are times where it matters more and hits me harder than "Paranoid Android" does.
Either of the potential winners would be a good winner. But neither are "Exit Music".

The best two Avalanches songs have gotten their due, and that's good to see. I love "Pictures of You" dearly. It's not my favorite Cure song, but it's not far off. Even though one of my favorite songs ever didn't win, this is a decent consolation prize. Congrats on getting to the end of the road, willapted33, and great job hosting one of the most difficult rankdowns to rank there has ever been (and, likely, ever will be).
