Welcome to This Is Why: The Rankdown!Hi Pulse! I’ve been getting really into Paramore this year, and their recent album This Is Why is among my favorite albums released this year. Given how well some of the songs from the album performed in the Wintertime and March Madnesses, I thought it would be fun to try hosting a rankdown for the album! Given it’s only 10 songs, this felt like the perfect album to do for my first ever rankdown. Submissions are now open, and here are the rules for submitting your list:
The list: This Is Why The News Running Out of Time C’est Comma Ça Big Man, Little Dignity You First Figure 8 Liar Crave

i'll definitely do this! i know 7/10 songs already thanks to various Pulse games lmao
also, you'll definitely want to tag some people if you want more people to see it (i would recommend the rock tag list from the tag list thread + maybe an initial tag of the pop list)

I went back and tagged both Alternative/Rock and Pop, and tried to remove all the duplicate tags so people aren't getting tagged twice. Thanks for the reminder!

This would be an easy album rankdown for me to do and would give me a reason to listen to all the songs I haven’t ranked or rated already.

Thanks for the reminder! you’re welcome! fyi, people don’t get multiple notifications if they’re tagged more than once in the same post, so removing duplicates isn’t something you have to worry about

Last call (24 hours) to submit your lists!There are only about 24 hours left to submit your list before the deadline tonight at 11:59pm CST! However, given I won't be awake at midnight, I'll leave the deadline loose and say it's still totally okay to submit your list a few hours after. I will make a post tomorrow morning letting people know when this rankdown is officially closed for submissions. Also, if anybody thinks they may need a short extension to get their list in, now is the time to tell me! Participants:14. American Idiot 15. DadJokes 16. BB🌕 17. woods 18. Mayman 19. Gonza'90 20. taylor 21. Steel Sponge *Disclaimer: There wasn't any other lyric on this album that "rank" would fit into nicely, so yes, the above lyric is from "Ain't It Fun" on their self-titled album lol.

This was a bitch to rank. Possibly album of the year (or at least top 5).

Reveals for #6-10 starting tonight!This rankdown is now officially closed! We ended up with 30 people in total who submitted lists. I'm planning to do the reveals for #6-10 tonight, starting at 9:00pm CST! I wanted to share a few things before reveals.- If you didn't have a chance to send a list, but want to be tagged in reveals, please let me know!
- As you may or may not be aware, this will be my first time hosting a rankdown. I did a lot of research and self-teaching before opening this rankdown, so I feel confident about all the aspects of everything. However, if by whatever off chance I happen to make a mistake, please don't hesitate to let me know and I'll be happy to fix it :)

It’s hard to fully guess the winner but top 3 I think is This Is Why, Running Out Of Time, and The News. Maybe Liar will be last?

I just want to see where my #1 goes. I'm double guessing whether I should've sent it in for STM or if I made a wise decision to not flop

1. What song do you think will win? probably one of the singles, if i had to guess which one then this is why 2. What song do you think will be the first go out? one of the songs towards the end of the album probably 3. What song do you think will have the highest SD? The lowest? i have no idea for the highest sd, lowest will probably be whatever wins

I’m guessing C’est Comma Ça will be revealed first and one of the songs that’s already been submitted for the last two Madness events is #1.

10. Liar
248 points
SD: 2.164499358 Median: 9 Average Rank: 8.2667
Our first reveal of the night is "Liar"! I would have likely ranked this lower if we were doing this when the album was first released, but this grew on me quite a bit. I like how pretty and hauntingly beautiful Hayley's vocals are in this. Condolences to Taylor for having her #1 be the first of the night to leave!taylor - 1
