Baby I would give 'til you wore it out You left me lyin' in a pool of doubt And you're still thinkin' you're the Daddy Mac You should've known better but you didn't And I can't go back
Oh life goes on And it's only gonna make me strong It's a fact, once you get on board Say good-bye cause you can't go back Oh it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right Where I'm at, is my life before me And this feelin' that I can go back

There you have it! In what was probably a foregone conclusion and thus no surprise to anyone, âLife Goes Onâ takes the crown! It did so in a mighty way, annihilating every song in its path as it racked up NINE #1s and a grand total of only 20 points!!! ( bboat11 only 20 pointsâŠis that a record for least points obtained by a rankdown winner?!) Itâs definitely deserving of the accolade; even if I personally gravitate more towards the runner-up, âSuddenly,â which picked up two top place rankings of its own by .indulgecountry and myself. Canât be mad at the outcome! Thanks for following along and thank you SO much for your patience over the past number of weeks as I dealt with work and life and other personal matters. It feels great to finally have this album wrapped up! Onward to This Woman!

"Life Goes On" is definitely the worthy winner here.

"The Safest Place" reminds me so much of a Celine Dion song structurally. I just can't get enough of the way she goes so hard in that chorus

I feel like in an alternate universe where pop LeAnn didn't get utterly dunked on, 'Damn' could've been a country smash. Not for pop radio at all, but LeAnn could've marketed the album to country and pop with targeted single releases a la Taylor Swift if audiences would've let her.
At least this era gifted us with some of LeAnn's best remixes. Riva's mix of 'Suddenly' and Widelife's mix of 'Tic Toc' are incredible.
It is unfortunate that one of my fave 'Life Goes On' remixes was the one her ex-husband Dean Sheremet made her for her birthday (in light of how that relationship ended).

Seems like a pretty long last call to me. Once againâŠI have a life. Shocking concept, I know! Have some f**king patience. These reveals will happen when they happen. Getting my life together is more important than this place.

This Woman: Itâs Results Time!!!
I did submit for this right? Haha You sure did, and we kick off with your first Top 5 loss!!! âI Got It Badâ gets the shaft here, but itâs not due to being a terrible song by any stretch of the imagination. This just happens to be such a strong album that something has to be ranked last! Unfortunately it had to be this song, which happens to only be separated from the winner of this rankdown by 100 points! (I honestly wonder if thatâs a recordâŠ) Believe it or not, this almost found itself in a three way tie with our next two songs to exit!!! And that tie will be followed by ANOTHER TIE!!!!

What is it with Pulse and the words âbonus trackâ âAfraid to Fallâ was ROBBED, regardless of the strength of the album overall. What a jam! I canât believe LeAnn and Co. decided to relegate this to bonus track status, let alone chose to not release it as a single.

âThe Weight of Loveâ wins the first of two consecutive ties, by way of having a much lower standard deviation than that of âAfraid to Fall.â This is another great song, with a FANTASTIC lyric in the second verse: Thereâll never be a January as warm in Tennessee. What an incredible way to describe how passionate love can be. Phenomenal line.

So I'm glad I'm not alone in liking "I Got It Bad" but I really didn't have that one pegged for last place! I always loved her energy on it. Now that I know it was the least liked overall I can sorta hear why it may not appeal to some. Still think it should've been over the bonus track lol "Afraid To Fall" has good lyrics but I never liked the melody and I find the production to not fit the rest of the album. I totally see why they left it off. Not a bad song just doesn't fully fit. "The Weight Of Love" is pretty. But there's better songs here even if this has one of the best lyrics on the album (the line taylor pointed out.) I have to imagine "When This Woman Loves A Man" will be next. Then it's a blood bath haha

This album was really hard to rank because everything on it is honestly great. It's easily her tightest record.
I expected the bonus track to wind up as my last place just by nature of having no nostalgia attached to it since I literally never knew it existed before this RD, let alone listened to it, but it was fantastic, lol.

I thought âWonât Be Lonely Longâ was a BIG jam that shouldâve been at least considered as a single, yet I only have it at #12. Thatâs how strong this album is!!!

The albumâs namesake wins this tie by way of smaller standard deviation, which is once again particularly smaller than that of âWonât Be Lonely Long.â
