The Thomas Rhett Album Rankdown Series
It Goes Like This
Oh, is it time to finally start this? As I said, I'll be doing this album series and the Old Dominion album series (which I'll open after Tim is finished) in album release order! I debated adding Tobacco from his self-titled EP along with the original Front Porch Junkies (which isn't that different from the album version tbh), but holding them for an Extras rankdown. Rank your favorite to least favorite, your favorite as your #1, all the way to your least favorite at #12, and PM me your list! Giving this five weeks for a due date of November 4th! It Goes Like This (2013) Running time: 41:23

So, I've tried and tried to learn how to do the trajectory graphs, and have completely let that ship sail lol I just can't get it. But what about closeness? I'd love to start including closeness at the end of my rankdowns. This one inparticular I'm curious about because without even a single list yet, I think I will be dead last in it. 😂 Please PM me if you can help me understand how that works! Call me up because I gotta get me some of that.

Wow having a listen to this album again I forgot I actually really liked his first 2 singles and thought he'd be somebody I'd root for.
He's released a handful of great singles over the years but I haven't ever fully got on board yet. Luckily he seems to be going in the right direction!

Don't worry, I'll do it!!! It's still only the 19th ;) But it'll be easy to knock out an album in the next 24 hours.

Sorry For NOT Partyin'
It Goes Like This Results Time!
So since I'm doing absolutely nothing and not partying tonight, I'll be drinking a few beers and finally sharing these rankdown results! I'll probably be talking to myself while everyone is getting New Years kisses but y'all can have an entire rankdown of results to come back to in the morning! 😛 Any predictions are welcome, including what will be first, last and most/least polarizing, but I will probably be starting within the next hour! Front Porch Junkies: 1. ClevelandRox2. tim 3. castleoblivion264. @xfer 5. Kanenrá:ke6. gonecountry7. austin8. 🌺CountryLineDancer9. .indulgecountry10. bboat1111. someguy12. 312999

WELL! All but King @xfer showed taste and even 8 of the 12 participants even had the audacity to put this bop as their last place! Can't wait to put the original version from the Thomas Rhett EP in the Extras rankdown just to put you all through it again! I'm only kidding y'all, I knew from the get go that this would be last place. It's my jam though. I wonder if we needed the help of @lbtrocks for this one?

11. Whatcha Got In That Cup
Total: 110 Average: 9.17 Std Dev: 1.64 (Lowest)
Good riddance to this one, tbh. Never liked it and I honestly should've had it in my bottom two. No top fives but no last places either since y'all decided to be gang-handed against poor little FPJ. :'( Atrocious placement for an opening track! austin , bboat11 and gonecountry get perfect rankings. Only missed last place by 12 points, which feels like it says a lot how hard yall came for Front Porch Junkies (the ledge, the phenomenon, the moment) lol

I told myself I really like everything on this album but in hindsight, this should've also been in my bottom two along with WGITC. I just find it so grating these days.

Another reveal. another bop done dirty! I think some people hated the song from the name alone and wrote it off before they even heard it? Between us lovers and those that wrote it off as soon as they saw the word white boy, it was the most polarizing song of the rankdown. We finally got rid of two more last places, leaving only two remaining- me and @xfers (be afraid, be very afraid! 😈)

Hint for #8: I might've told a fib- a friend wants to gayme on the playstation (which is a huge part why I have been so MIA on Pulse the past few months) but I'll leave it here for now and if ANYONE comes around tonight while I'm still up, with any comments or even a guess on what's next, I'll post some more reveals.

"All-American Trash" sounded like a parody of a country song to me. Awful, just awful.
If I'm being 100% honest, I probably only really liked or tolerated about 3 or 4 songs on this album. I genuinely thought at least half of this record was total garbage, lol. Looking forward to ranking his latter albums as I know based on his singles that he did improve over time.

this has started off great. "Front Porch Junkies" is a mess. "Whatcha Got In That Cup" and "Call Me Up" get old fast, and "All-American Middle Class White Boy" is embarrassing. Truly surprised by some of those high rankings.
I remember when this album I liked half the album and disliked half. The part I liked hasn't exactly aged all that well, and the half I didn't like only got worse. Honestly never gave his other albums a chance like I did this one so do look forward to doing those ones in the future.
Also I cannot for the life of me figure out the Maren Morris hint lol

All-American Middle Class White Boy is a JAM. Glad to see that I wasn't the only one to recognize that...
