1 3 6 9 15 This top 5 goes crazy hard. Glad I got to make up for the last time Baba O'Reily was in a rankdown where I put it bottom 20 out of 50  |

Sad and melancholic songs aren’t usually up my alley but there’s something special about So You Are Tired that it captivated me. I understand why it’s the top single of 2023 on RYM.
4 out the top 5 songs remaining are songs I already heard before.

Dizzy on the Comedown is awesome, but I think there's a few songs on the album that I would've rated even higher than it here. Even so, I adored my whole top 3 here, so seeing at least one of them make the top 10 is pretty satisfying.
There weren't any bad songs here but I've got a very clear preference out of the five songs left, let's hope it can go all the way in the end

unfortunately i didn’t feel a strong connection to White Rabbit so it made my bottom 2. i can understand why it’s loved though
losing 3 top 10s between the 11-13 reveals was kinda sad lol. Vienna is a classic, Last Summer Whisper was a solid listen, and So You Are Tired is definitely one of the strongest songs of the year
i have:
1 2 5 17 19
i went into this top 10 with 3 top 10s left (all top 5) and they all made top 5 which is great. obviously would love any of them to win, but won’t be too upset if the others win since i still rated them 4/5s.

Eye Know was a great discovery from this rankdown. I've been needing to listen to more De La Soul, I've grown to really love this song. #4 feels like I underranked, but Smooth Operator is one of my favorite songs of all time, so that #1 spot was basically uncontended.
Also, just an anecdote here--I work with someone with the name Phaedra and one day she was talking about the Nancy Sinatra song with her name in it and I had no idea what she was talking about and couldn't find it from a cursory google search either--so fun to discover this song here a couple weeks later lol

Thank you for hosting this rd will. I wouldn't consider Smooth Operator to be my most favorite Sade song but I'm cool with it winning. I don't think I've seen a song that's partly Smooth Jazz win a rankdown before while De La Soul has already won another personal rd not long ago. |

overall content with these results and i love this winner! i almost put smooth operator #1 as it’s such a strong classic but let’s stay together was just too good.
