Yeah, I'm not doing this anymore. However, I may post my thoughts on the songs from time to time at General Rock Discussion.

It's a slow day at work.
1. The Outside (2.0/5) vs. Dead Inside (2.0/5) vs. The Hardest Cut (3.0/5) - The Outside: I don't know, there's something about this one that just rubs me the wrong way. I don't like the vocal performance and the "heads moving up and down, they're nodding" line is just...dumb? - Dead Inside: Greatest hit of Disturbed with a different guitar performance, who cares. - The Hardest Cut: Far from my favorite Spoon song, but it's hard to imagine the band putting out anything I really don't like (though Do You does push it). I like the bluesy edge here, I just wish the tune was stronger. 2. Beggin' (2.5/5) vs. So Called Life (1.0/5) vs. Crutch (3.5/5) - Beggin': This is like, ok. Damiano David's voice can be okay in the right setting, I just don't think this is it. It is undeniably a very catchy song & generally a successful cover, it's just not all the way there for me. - So Called Life: TDG have never been high art, but the level of badness they achieve here is impressive. Is this really lead single material? This is arguably worse than their STIUTK cover. - Crutch: Like with The Hardest Cut, this isn't peak Band of Horses, but it is still actively good. Has grown on me a decent bit over the last few months. 3. Enemy (2.0/5) vs. Start the Healing (2.5/5) vs. I Don't Live Here Anymore (3.5/5) - Enemy: This is just bog standard Imagine Dragons-core. I don't hate this sound as much as many, and the JID verse is a nice addition, but I still hardly like this. - Start the Healing: Modern Korn is generally unexciting, and this isn't much of an exception. But the verses here are for sure different. I had to double check that I was even listening to the right song, sounds nothing like Korn. - I Don't Live Here Anymore: AAA is 3/3 for good but not great singles by acts I really like. IDLHA doesn't hold a candle to the last few TWOD lead singles, but it's good, I like it. 4. Colorado (2.5/5) vs. Taking Me Back (4.0/5) vs. Brightside (3.5/5) - Colorado: Milky Chance venturing into dumb dance-pop could've gone worse. As stupid as this song is, and as unfitting as Mr. Milky's raspy warble is to this style, it is catchy enough and generally inoffensive. - Taking Me Back: Jack's solo stuff has been really good lately. Love how heavy and hard-hitting this track is. - Brightside: Easily among the Lumineers best. Has kind of a Pinegrove vibe to it? The dry electric guitars and slow pace suit the Lumineers surprisingly well. 5. Taking Me Back (4.0/5) vs. Shotgun Blues (3.5/5) vs. Write a List of Things to Look Forward To (3.0/5) - Shotgun Blues: Of the 2 greatest hits of Volbeat, I'm not really a fan of "the heavy one", but this is a good version of it actually. I like it more than Wait a Minute My Girl. - Write a List of Things to Look Forward To: Good little piece of alt-country from Courtney here. This was my first time hearing it, so maybe my opinion isn't fully formed, but it's ok. 6. Brightside (3.5/5) vs. Hunter's Moon (3.0/5) vs. Wild Blue (3.5/5) - Hunter's Moon: I don't know, this still just isn't doing it for me. Just kind of aimless and overly "spooky", Ghost can do better. - Wild Blue: Surprised by how much I'm liking this current Mayer album cycle, I'm down for a yacht rock revival, and Mayer does it well. Like the kinda Knopfler-y guitars on this one. 7. Record Player (3.5/5) vs. Kill the Noise (2.5/5) vs. Oh My God (2.5/5) - Record Player: I can see why the general opinion on Record Player is that it's ungood, but I like it. It's catchy, I like the watery aesthetic of the remix, and I actually really appreciate the songwriting here as well. - Kill the Noise: P-Roach is still going at it. And hell I can appreciate that they still sound so energetic after 22 years of grinding. That said, still pretty standard butt rock. But there's worse out there. - Oh My God: I liked this one the first time I heard it, the chorus goes hard, but the more I hear it, the more annoying it gets. The high pitch sample and the prechorus are both so obnoxious. And the bridge is...something. 8. I Don't Wanna Talk (I Just Wanna Dance) (2.0/5) vs. DiE4u (3.0/5) vs. U&Me (3.0/5) - I Don't Wanna Talk: If Glass Animals wanna become a pure pop act, go for it, just hopefully they're future stuff is less annoying. This worms its way into my brain daily and I hate it for that alone. - DiE4U: You know, props to BMTH for getting their first true alternative hit. They deserve it. Not their best pop-leaning song, but it has grown on me since it dropped. I wouldn't mind more stuff like this from them. - U&Me: Idk, this kinda just sounds like Alt-J on autopilot, which feels weird to say about such a diverse, eccentric act. Song is okay, not their most experimental or their most radio-friendly, but it's fine. 9. Monsters (3.0/5) vs. Love Dies Young (3.5/5) vs. Chapstick (2.0/5) - Monsters: It's past the point where I'm mad, I'm just impressed. - Love Dies Young: While the music video does haunt me & the chorus could use a bit of work, this is easily my favorite of the 4 singles from Medicine at Midnight. I love the post-punk-y guitars on this track. - Chapstick: I didn't like Talk Too Much, but, like, I get it. Honestly, I really don't know what y'all see in this one. I kinda vibe with the first part of the chorus, but every other part of the song falls so flat I can't get into it. 10. Survivor (1.5/5) vs. The River Is Rising (3.5/5) vs. Face Down in the Moment (3.0/5) - Survivor: God this song just sounds so unfathomably bad and ugly. The verses are listenable, but throwaway, but that loud chorus is one of the most grating things I've heard in awhile. - The River Is Rising: Sf/MK&tC (get a proper band name please) rank among the most consistently "pretty good" acts on the mainstream rock chart right now. I kinda like this. That said, I will not remember it come 2023. - Face Down in the Moment: Well, it's better than Survivor if nothing else. But Rateliff's trend of followup singles being real snoozers continues. Starting to realize that You Worry Me is a huge exception, not a Rateliff fan. 11. Smile (3.0/5) vs. Built by Nations (3.0/5) vs. The Only Heartbreaker (3.0/5) - Smile: I don't love Smile, chorus doesn't do much for me and the song kinda feels disjointed, but it is cool to see Wolf Alice charting so well. Maybe we could see How Can I Make It OK chart too, that'd be cool. - Built by Nations: Lately, GVF's songwriting & performance have been too good to hate, but the vocals have still been so s**t that I can't say I like them or anything. Better than My Way Soon, not as good as Heat Above. - The Only Heartbreaker: I'm still waiting for this one to hit me in the way I think it should. It hasn't yet. This is a cool sound for AAA I guess. I just wish I liked it more than I do. 12. Fleabag (3.5/5) vs. Teardrinker (4.0/5) vs. Magnificent Hurt (3.0/5) - Fleabag: Yungblud is hit or miss, but I think he's done a good job finding his sound here. Decent post-grunge revival with a sick guitar solo, I just wish the chorus didn't have "monkehh" in it. - Teardrinker: This is probably the most I've ever liked Mastodon, good s**t. - Magnificent Hurt: Haven't been too hot on Elvis C.'s recent work, but this is pretty good for him. Effectively calls back to his quirky post-punk roots. I guess he's still "got it", more or less. 13. Bad Dream (3.5/5) vs. Kill Beautiful Things (2.5/5) vs. Worry No More (2.5/5) - Bad Dream: Fire for You took forever to go #1, will this do the same?? Impressive. But like, I get it, this has actually grown on me a lot lately. Still not anywhere close to Fire for You, but a worthy followup. - Kill Beautiful Things: Ugh, I give up, Ded are making music so boring yet passable lately it's not even fun to meme on anymore. I kinda like the guitars in this at times, otherwise, yep this is active rock radio in the 2020s. - Worry No More: I won't disagree that AAA is the best & most exciting of the 3 rock charts right now, but still. Who knew Amos Lee went top 10 last year. I've literally never come in contact with this song before. It's boring. 14. Won't Stand Down (2.5/5) vs. Rainy Day (3.0/5) vs. Wake Me Up (4.0/5) - Won't Stand Down: Muse has really soured on me lately, even the classics. Just in time for a new single. The metalcore breakdown is cool, but the Imagine Dragons verses are lame and Bellamy's voice is still grating. - Rainy Day: I love A Grave Mistake, but I've been disappointed by just about everything else by Ice Nine Kills, so I hadn't even listened to this one. But it's pretty good! Not great, but not as lame as much of their stuff. - Wake Me Up: I didn't love this one the first time I heard it, but it's grown on me sooo much. That chorus is like fireworks, such a good groove throughout too. 15. Love Dies Young (3.5/5) vs. Epiphany (3.5/5) vs. The Sun Hasn't Left (3.0/5) - Epiphany: Distance was great, didn't like Don't Back Down, Epiphany is somewhere in the middle, but relistening to it now I can tell it's growing on me. This hearkens back to indistinct "radio rock" of the mid-2000s, I dig it. - The Sun Hasn't Left: I don't love this current Modest Mouse cycle, this has been the one song I've heard from it that I have liked, and even that's starting to wear a bit thin. 16. Wake Me Up (4.0/5) vs. Zombified (2.0/5) vs. B-Side (3.0/5) - Zombified: Lol idk about this Ronnie, this really what we're doing. Not the worst sounding thing in the world, but I've always kinda liked Falling in Reverse. But the douche energy on this is just TOO much, I can't. - B-Side: Good groove on this one, some nice bass work. It's a good vibe. Doesn't stick with me at all, but it's fine. I like it more than Time (You & I) and Texas Sun. 17. Monday (2.5/5) vs. The Comeback (2.0/5) vs. Love Love Love (3.0/5) - Monday: Idk what happened between 2019 and now, but what a downgrade. The prechorus is kinda sweet on the ears, but I hate the chorus itself, the "yeah yeah yeah yeah"s are so grating. Still wanna root for them though. - The Comeback: Honestly, I really don't hate For the Glory. It's not good, but for a dumb wrestling promo song it could be worse. But this one...I get it. It's like FtG, but everything is so much worse. Craig sounds terrible. - Love Love Love: I like MMJ, but they always manage to slip by me, especially lately, I didn't know Run It existed before yesterday. I like the 70s soft rock vibes, but the tune's not great and the vocals could use some work. 18. Chapstick (2.0/5) vs. Dead Man Walking (3.0/5) vs. Love Dies Young (3.5/5) - Dead Man Walking: Who tf is Jelly Roll. I do actually kinda like this one though, has a slightly different sound for modern Active radio, and I like the almost soulful quality to this guy's voice. Not too bad. 19. I Don't Live Here Anymore (3.5/5) vs. Won't Stand Down (2.5/5) vs. The Last Dance (3.5/5) - The Last Dance: As much as I do like IDLHA, The Last Dance was such a good first listen! St. Paul can be kinda hit or miss, but after one listen I'd say this is among their best. 20. Time in Disguise (3.5/5) vs. Brighten (2.5/5) vs. Once Twice Melody (3.0/5) - Time in Disguise: I guess all 3 KoL singles from their new album have been sleeper hits with me. This may actually be my first time listening to TiD in full, but I love the psychedelic production. Surprisingly good. - Brighten: Guess it's cool to see Jerry Cantrell charting, but honestly this just sounds like bar band Alice in Chains. Not great. - Once Twice Melody: Have never been huge on Beach House, but I did like their songs in WTM. This one's ok, pretty but kinda boring. Could maybe grow on me. 21. The Sun Hasn't Left (3.0/5) vs. Surviving the Game (1.5/5) vs. Rushing Water (3.0/5) - Surviving the Game: I mean, this sounds just as s**tty as I'd expect a modern Skillet to sound. That's all I have to say here. - Rushing Water: Sting sure do be making music in 2021 huh. Uh it's fine, I guess. Boring. 22. My Universe (3.5/5) vs. Feast of Fire (2.5/5) vs. Taking Me Back (4.0/5) - My Universe: Believe it or not, I do legitimately think this is one of Coldplay's best singles in years. Solid pop track, BTS is a surprisingly good fit. - Feast of Fire: Idk, I just cannot force myself to remember what this one sounds like. Trivium are decent on average, but this is just so disposable. 23. Toxic (3.0/5) vs. Never Gonna Learn (3.0/5) vs. Beggin' (3.0/5) - Toxic: Still sounds like a half-baked 21P track, but it has grown on me. It's a nice little tune. Maybe more "lo-fi" than "half-baked". Two Moons is better though. - Never Gonna Learn: Hm, AA's little detour into electropop didn't last for long, this is a pretty straightforward rocker. It's fine. 24. Talking to Ourselves (2.5/5) vs. Lifeline (3.5/5) vs. Never Leave You (3.5/5) - Talking to Ourselves: Kinda like with Muse, I'm just growing out of Rise Against. These new messy, uninspired singles aren't helping their case. - Lifeline: Yeah, I like this Bad Wolves song way more than should/thought I could. Quality butt rock, reminds me of Sawano Hiroyuki. - Never Leave You: I like The Record Company, always a nice presence on the charts. Wouldn't expect them to go in such a funky, dancey direction, but it works. 25. Head Right (3.5/5) vs. Untouchable (2.0/5) vs. Justified (3.5/5) - Head Right: While I do prefer Surefire, it's really nice to see some classic, straightforward power pop on the alt chart. Hope to hear more from this band. - Untouchable: I mean, Atreyu haven't always been this bad. What happened? This is a step up from Warrior, but Jacoby is an unwelcome presence. - Justified: Idk, but I am liking the singles from Star-Crossed more than the ones from Golden Hour. This is a really nice little piece of dream pop, I like it. 26. Abcdefu (1.0/5) vs. Crimson Skies (3.0/5) vs. Record Player (3.5/5) - Abcdefu: I would like to put forward the bold assertion that Abcdefu is in fact dumb and bad. - Crimson Skies: I do kinda like BVB's bigger than life arena rock sound lately, I just wish the tunes were better. I like this more than Scarlet Cross though. 27. Bite Me (2.0/5) vs. Talking to Ourselves (2.5/5) vs. The Tipping Point (3.5/5) - Bite Me: I've commented on this one a few times now, but retro punk Avril returning is cool, but this song makes me cringe. - The Tipping Point: Wouldn't expect to see Tears for Fears on the charts in 2022, but nice. Solid song from them too, they've aged pretty gracefully. 28. Love Brand New (3.0/5) vs. Changes Are Coming (3.0/5) vs. Steam (3.5/5) - Love Brand New: Like most Bob Moses songs, I appreciate the aesthetic here but something is missing. I do like the dirtier guitar passages though, it's nice contrast. The tune just doesn't stick with me much. - Changes Are Coming: Glad that Daughtry are feeling their oats and are a full-fledged hard rock act now. Daughtry is a powerhouse vocalist, I just wish these songs were...better. Haven't loved any of these singles. - Steam: 2/2 now on me loving Leon Bridges singles I finally listen to after their done on the charts. He's really killing it this past year, maybe I should listen to the new album. Motorbike's better, but production is still great. 29. I'll Call You Mine (3.5/5) vs. Rainbow Veins (3.0/5) vs. Dream Never Dies (3.0/5) - I'll Call You Mine: Serotonin wasn't great, but I'm glad the follow up is so solid. Really pretty little piece of indie pop, I hope Girl in Red does more like this. - Rainbow Veins: BFMV are still a ways down from their peak, but this is okay. I liked Letting You Go from a few years ago more, but this is still perfectly fine radio rock, I would even say I like it. - Dream Never Dies: I was thinking about Lo Moon recently, I had forgotten they existed. But I liked all 3 of their singles from 2017-2018, so cool to see them back. This one doesn't do much for me though, kinda bland. 30. Life Goes On (1.5/5) vs. Circle the Drain (3.0/5) vs. Cheer Up Baby (4.0/5) - Life Goes On: I kinda wanna be the one Oliver Tree supporter here because I liked Hurt so much, but...he makes it really hard, you know? I hate this. - Circle the Drain: Not anything spectacular in the world of buttcore, but it's good for what it is. I actually do like this guitar riff, chorus is decent. - Cheer Up Baby: Cool to see Inhaler finally on their charts. Cheer Up Baby isn't my favorite song of theirs, but it is damn good anyway. 31. Chaise Longue (2.5/5) vs. Set You Free (3.5/5) vs. Elizabeth Taylor (3.0/5) - Chaise Longue: I still don't care for this one. It's grown on me slightly, I'll at least say it's listenable now, but I just do not like these vocals at all & I don't think the rest of the song makes up for it. Cool to see on alt though. - Set You Free: Black Label Society is always such a nonpresence on the charts for me, but I do actually like this one. Nothing special, but it is a good hard rocker that's less of a slog than their usual stuff. - Elizabeth Taylor: The return of Pete Yorn on AAA hasn't done much to impress me. I do like I Wanna Be the One, but everything else by him recently has been like water, this isn't really an exception. 32. DiE4u (3.0/5) vs. Voices (3.0/5) vs. Broken Horses (4.0/5) - Voices: For a D-tier active rock radio staple, I've always found Shaman's Harvest pretty above average. I like Voices too, not enough to wanna listen on my own time, but still decent Southern butt rock. - Broken Horses: Brandi Carlile is another artist I managed to avoid on AAA radio in 2021. And idek why, I like her usually. Right on Time was good, but after one listen I actually love this one. 33. If You Ever Leave, I'm Coming with You (3.5/5) vs. Brother the Cloud (3.5/5) vs. Time in Disguise (3.5/5) - If You Ever Leave I'm Coming with You: I wasn't too sure on this one at first, but I would say I like it a good bit now. The 2DCC verses feel kinda mismatched with the chorus, but the chorus itself is so strong it's fine. - Brother the Cloud: Long Way was boring, so wasn't expecting much from new solo Vedder, but this is great. Better than anything from the 2020 Pearl Jam release. It's a journey. Cool to see on Alternative & Active. 34. The Hardest Cut (3.0/5) vs. I'm Not (2.0/5) vs. Next to Normal (3.0/5) - I'm Not: I'll admit that Adrenaline was nothing great, but I did like that song if no one else did. This one though...this is bad. Formless, ugly fusion of discount Eminem & a jxdn chorus. - Next to Normal: Lucius are such a weird presence on the charts, they show up every few years with a minor hit and dip. This one's ok, very funky. Better than Born Again Teen (low bar), not as good as Turn It Around. 35. Mystery (3.0/5) vs. I Wanna Be Your Slave (3.0/5) vs. Easy on Me (2.5/5) - Mystery: Just in general, I feel like I should like Turnstile more than I do, but 2 whole listens through Glow On and I still don't feel much. Cool to see this chart & I support it, but. Not gonna add to any playlists. - I Wanna Be Your Slave: Ok, I didn't like IWBYS too much at all at first, but it has grown on me. The groove at the core of this is so strong I accidentally rear-ended someone cause I was jamming too hard. That's real. - Easy on Me: I wanted to give Adele a chance with Easy on Me since I liked Hello and everything from 21 so much, but after a few months of overplay, I feel confident in saying that this song is just extremely boring. 36. U&Me (3.0/5) vs. Ramon Ayala (3.0/5) vs. Silk Chiffon (3.5/5) - Ramon Ayala: I've come back to this one a few times, jury's still out. I think I like it though? I do like the early 00s sound here, it's not just pop punk worship, and it is catchy. Wish the vocals were better. - Silk Chiffon: Love Silk Chiffon, such a delightful little song. 37. Ramon Ayala (3.0/5) vs. Down (Versus Me) (2.0/5) vs. Valentine (3.5/5) - Down: This sounds just like a song named Down by a band named Versus Me. - Valentine: Maybe it's just part of adulthood, but I have grown to like all the new singles from acts like Snail Mail, Soccer Mommy, Lucy Dacus, etc. This is a really good single. 38. Cheer Up Baby (4.0/5) vs. The Chapeltown Rag (3.5/5) vs. I'll Call You Mine (3.5/5) - The Chapeltown Rag: Pretty savage track for Slipknot these days, I dig this. Think this is my first time listening all the way through, should've given it a chance sooner. 39. On My Knees (3.0/5) vs. Out for Blood (3.0/5) vs. Brother the Cloud (3.5/5) - On My Knees: Rufus du Sol make good vibe music generally, this one is a bit more energetic than I'd expect. Comparatively darker sounding, actually has a pulse. Can't tell if I like it more or less than Alive, but it's okay. - Out for Blood: I know that the consensus on this one is that it's un-good, but. I like it. Not the best thing Code Orange has ever put out, but it's solid. Calls back to early 00s industrial metal in all its shittiness accurately. 40. MammaMia (2.5/5) vs. Call Me Little Sunshine (3.5/5) vs. Rose Pink Cadillac (3.5/5) - MammaMia: I think it was Fantano that said this sounds like a shitty version of a White Stripes song, and like, I kinda hear it. But I still kinda dig it, may end up growing on me like IWBYS did. - Call Me Little Sunshine: Solid new single from Ghost. Better than Hunter's Moon if nothing else. Doesn't come close to their best stuff, but could be a grower. - Rose Pink Cadillac: Interesting little song to be charting. I like Angus & Julia Stone, so I guess I'm on board with a breezy little side project. Nice track.

- Worry No More: I've literally never come in contact with this song before. Unless you're referring to willingly, I follow AAA radio, and this was played all the time.

Yeah, I mean, honestly, I really haven't listened to my local AAA station since I got sirius for my birthday, I'm sure they play it a good bit, I just haven't been listening to AAA radio much lately.

This game is actually a lot easier and a lot more fun than people think. Just open up another tab with the mediabase/billboard charts and compare the song titles, then pick your favorite. EX: The Outside vs. Dead Inside vs. The Hardest Cut. Obviously I'm choosing "Dead Inside" duh. The reason I'm explaining this like a six year old is because I like this game and I want to see it stick around. If anything I won't miss out on songs to chart like "Crash and Burn" - Maggie Lindemann. 1. The Outside vs. Dead Inside vs. The Hardest Cut 2. Beggin' vs. So Called Life vs. Crutch3. Enemy vs. Start the Healing vs. I Don't Live Here Anymore4. Colorado vs. Taking Me Back vs. Brightside 5. Taking Me Back vs. Shotgun Blues vs. Write a List of Things to Look Forward To 6. Brightside vs. Hunter's Moon vs. Wild Blue 7. Record Player vs. Kill the Noise vs. Oh My Godthat Adel song sounds like a masterpiece compared to the other two. Especially Poop Roach. All i'm ever gonna hear from now on when I see their name is "sweat sweat stand up"8. I Don't Wanna Talk (I Just Wanna Dance) vs. DiE4u vs. U&Me 9. Monsters vs. Love Dies Young vs. Chapstick 10. Survivor vs. The River Is Rising vs. Face Down in the Moment 11. Smile vs. Built by Nations vs. The Only Heartbreaker 12. Fleabag vs. Teardrinker vs. Magnificent Hurt13.

MammaMia vs. Call Me Little Sunshine vs. Rose Pink Cadilla breakdown: ALT: 15 (mostly songs I'm charting or plan to chart) Active: 11 ("") other than that this chart does not cater to my melodic metal needs AAA: 14 (Most surprising new discoveries and puts Active to shame in melody and enticing vocals). Favorite discovery ("Silk Chiffon" a melodic female vocal parade)

Monday (2/5) vs. Planet Zero (1.5/5) vs. Taking Me Back (4/5) - Planet Zero: Wasn't a big fan of this one at first, but the more I hear it the worse it gets. I hate the way Brent sings the chorus and the lyrics are just ughh. 21. Talking to Ourselves (2.5/5) vs. Brighten (3.5/5) vs. Broken Horses (4/5) 22.

On My Knees (3/5) vs. Stand Up (2/5) vs. Steam (3.5/5) - Stand Up: I usually wanna stand up for P-Roach, but this is uhh not great. I do kinda like the chorus, but the rapping in the verses is questionable 33. Cheer Up Baby (4/5) vs. Voices (3/5) vs. Silk Chiffon (3.5/5) 34. Life Goes On (1.5/5) vs. Set You Free (3.5/5) vs. Elizabeth Taylor (3/5) 35. If You Ever Leave, I’m Coming with You (3.5/5) vs. I Wanna Be Your Slave (3/5) vs. In the Wake of Your Leave (3.5/5) - In the Wake of Your Leave: Hmm I'm not in love with the new Gang of Youths song. The "doo doo doo" bits are annoying, and it just sounds like them sticking to a formula. Angel of 8th Ave. was way better. Still best song of the 3 here though. 36. Looking Out for You (3/5) vs. Ramon Ayala (3/5) vs. Time in Disguise (3.5/5) - Looking Out for You: Guess Tik Tok is the reason this song from 2016 is the potw here. I like this one, it sounds like a messier bedroom pop version of the Strokes, it's fine. 37. Ramon Ayala (3/5) vs. Skin (3/5) vs. Rose Pink Cadillac (3.5/5) - Skin: Beartooth has become like, the most basic, pure form of indistinguishable modern radio rock. This just goes in one ear and out the other. 38. Seventeen Going Under (3.5/5) vs. Out for Blood (3/5) vs. Hold U (3/5) - Seventeen Going Under: Not my favorite Sam Fender song, but cool to see him on the charts. Guess I should listen to the new album. - Hold U: Pretty little piece of indie pop. Nothing too exceptional and I barely remember it, but I did enjoy it enough. 39. The Hardest Cut (3/5) vs. Somebody (2.5/5) vs. Easy on Me (2.5/5) - Somebody: Like Beartooth, modern Memphis May Fire is completely inessential. Keeping the Imagine Dragon verse alive though. And this trap percussion + the metalcore breakdown. This doesn't have to happen. 40. U&Me (3/5) vs. I Am More (3.5/5) vs. How Dare You Want More (3.5/5) - I Am More: This is actually pretty good. Kinda like, power metal without all the power. Solid hard rock. - How Dare You Want More: Not as immediate as Stop Making This Hurt, but I think it has potential to grow on me. Second listen did a lot more for me than the first.

I'll do the actual ones later, but I have a new game idea - to divide AAA further into commercial and non-commercial AAA. For commercial, I just use Mediabase's top 50, as they have only four non-comms (Billboard has like 15+), and 2 additional stations which are not on JBE (KYMK and Sirius XM Spectrum, the latter which is actually on Billboard) who also tend not to play what is on non-commercial. For non-commercial I use JBE's non-commercial top 50 album chart and picked the song that is higher, switching to the new song for both once it is higher on Billboard, JBE or Mediabase for the first time. (So only one artist on MB at a time) I'm not sure how long this'll last, but hopefully y'all can hear more discoveries from this game - a lot of my favs I discovered from non-comm radio playing them. Commercial is on left, noncomm is on right.
35 and 37 are both the same song so I moved Elizabeth Taylor on non comm down to 37.

Colorado vs. Zombified vs. Wake Me Up 12. Love Dies Young vs. Kill the Noise vs. Write a List of Things to Look Forward To 13. Wake Me Up vs. Teardrinker vs. Brightside 14. Black Summer (3.0/5) vs. Epiphany vs. Love Dies Young - Black Summer: I do like this single more than I'd expect from a new RHCP song, but I wish the vocal was less uhh weird. 15. Toxic vs. Rainy Day vs. Once Twice Melody 16. Chapstick vs. Dead Man Walking vs. Broken Horses 17. I Don’t Live Here Anymore vs. Never Gonna Learn vs. Never Leave You 18. Chaise Longue vs. Call Me Little Sunshine vs. Brother the Cloud 19. Abcdefu vs. Hunter’s Moon vs. Magnificent Hurt 20. Love Brand New vs. The Comeback vs. The Last Dance 21.

Mystery vs. Surviving the Game vs. Cheer Up Baby 25. Bite Me vs. Crimson Skies vs. Record Player 26. Keep It Up (3.5/5) vs. Stand Up vs. Dream Never Dies - Keep It Up: This is nice. I don't think I like it as much as 10/10, but more than Loving Is Easy. Cute little piece of bedroom pop, it's charming. 27. I’ll Call You Mine vs. Brighten vs. Beggin’ 28. On My Knees vs. Talking to Ourselves vs. How Dare You Want More 29. Re-Entry (3.0/5) vs. Circle the Drain vs. Love Love Love - Re-Entry: Cool to see ADTR back on alt, even if they aren't too beloved these days. This is a solid piece of pop rock, far from their best work, but I like it enough. Don't know if I'd chart. 30. My Universe vs. Rainbow Veins vs. Rushing Water 31. How Dare You Want More vs. Changes Are Coming vs. Where We Are (2.5/5) - Where We Are: Well, it doesn't live up to the standards of Brightside. Not the worst Lumineers single, I like the tune, it's just so repetitive and bland. 32. If You Ever Leave, I’m Coming with You vs. I’m Not vs. Wild (3.5/5) - Wild: Better than The Hardest Cut. Still not my favorite single of theirs, but it is good. Could see it growing on me. 33. Monday vs. Voices vs. In the Wake of Your Leave 34. Ramon Ayala vs. Re-Entry vs. Elizabeth Taylor 35. Cheer Up Baby vs. Ramon Ayala vs. I’ll Call You Mine 36. Seventeen Going Under vs. Skin vs. Silk Chiffon 37. Mammamia vs. Somebody vs. Rose Pink Cadillac 38. The Sun Hasn’t Left vs. Gotta Get Outta Here (2.0/5) vs. The Outside - Gotta Get Outta Here: Who tf is Blacklite District, this sounds nothing like Falling or uhh that other single he charted with, I don't think. How does he keep charting lol. This is un-good. 39. Brother the Cloud vs. People Are Strange (2.0/5) vs. Slide Tackle (4.0/5) - People Are Strange: Active sure does like its covers. I've liked most of the stuff I've heard from The Violent, but this is just not good. It's a real slog and fails to live up to the original. - Slide Tackle: I love Jubilee, and Slide Tackle is one of my favorite tracks from it. I'm glad they're getting another charter off that project. 40. Life Goes On vs. Rest in Peace (3.5/5) vs. Hold U - Rest in Peace: This is the most truly Active that Dorothy has ever sounded, I think. Almost sounds like a Halestorm track. But it's good! I don't think I'd want them to continue in this direction, but it is good for what it is.

Commercial AAA vs. Non-commercial AAA.
Notes: Crutch and Wake Me Up are swapped on non-comm due to Foals being #13 on both. Justified has been swapped out for Camera Roll. I'm also excluding Valentine and Stand for Myself for MB as both are out on non-comm and they've been bubbling under on MB for some time already.

1 John Mayer - Wild Blue (3.5/5) vs. Spoon - The Hardest Cut (3.0/5) 2 Band of Horses - Crutch (3.5/5) vs. Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats - Face Down in the Moment (3.0/5) 3 The War on Drugs f/ Lucius - I Don't Live Here Anymore (3.5/5) vs. Elvis Costello & the Imposters - Magnificent Hurt (3.0/5) 4 COIN - Chapstick (2.0/5) vs. Mitski - The Only Heartbreaker (3.0/5) 5 Adele - Oh My God (2.0/5) vs. Khruangbin & Leon Bridges - B-Side (3.0/5) 6 alt-J - U&Me (3.0/5) vs. Adele - Oh My God (2.0/5) 7 Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats - Face Down in the Moment (3.0/5) vs. Brandi Carlile - Broken Horses (4.0/5) 8 Spoon - The Hardest Cut (3.0/5) vs. Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Searching for My Love (3.5/5) - Searching for My Love: I didn't care much for...Can't Let Go? (I think that was the name of the first single), but this one is really solid. Classy, classic piece of pop music, very catchy and Robert's voice is surprisingly nice. 9 The Lumineers - Brightside (3.5/5) vs. The War on Drugs f/ Lucius - I Don't Live Here Anymore (3.5/5) 10 Foo Fighters - Love Dies Young (3.5/5) vs. Beach House - Once Twice Melody (3.0/5) 11 Mitski - The Only Heartbreaker (3.0/5) vs. Lucius - Next to Normal (3.0/5) 12 Courtney Barnett - Write a List of Things to Look Forward To (3.0/5) vs. The Lumineers - Brightside (3.5/5) 13 Foals - Wake Me Up (4.0/5) vs. Band of Horses - Crutch (3.5/5) 14 Khruangbin & Leon Bridges - B-Side (3.0/5) vs. Foals - Wake Me Up (4.0/5) 15 Eddie Vedder - Brother the Cloud (3.5/5) vs. The Record Company - Never Leave You (3.0/5) 16 The Record Company - Never Leave You (3.0/5) vs. St. Paul & the Broken Bones - The Last Dance (4.0/5) 17 Modest Mouse - The Sun Hasn't Left (3.0/5) vs. COIN - Chapstick (2.0/5) 18 Inhaler - Cheer Up Baby (4.0/5) vs. Big Thief - Simulation Swarm (4.0/5) - Simulation Swarm: Unfortunate this is against Inhaler, this was a great first listen. I've generally liked Big Thief in the past, but none of their stuff has really blown me away like this one. 19 Brandi Carlile - Broken Horses (4.0/5) vs. Japanese Breakfast - Slide Tackle (4.0/5) 20 Måneskin - Beggin' (3.0/5) vs. alt-J - U&Me (3.0/5) 21 St. Paul & the Broken Bones - The Last Dance (4.0/5) vs. Lo Moon - Dream Never Dies (3.0/5) 22 Kings of Leon - Time in Disguise (3.5/5) vs. Cat Power - Pa Pa Power (4.0/5) - Pa Pa Power: Another really good first listen here. Really like the guitar work and the dark vibe. 23 Jack White - Taking Me Back (4.0/5) vs. Father John Misty - Funny Girl (3.0/5) - Funny Girl: Pretty classy FJM track, reminds me of Pure Comedy era. It does feel like it runs a bit long and maybe a bit of a snooze, but FJM is always at least listenable. 24 Elvis Costello & the Imposters - Magnificent Hurt (3.0/5) vs. Jack White - Taking Me Back (4.0/5) 25 Sting - Rushing Water (3.0/5) vs. Parquet Courts - Watching Strangers Smile (3.5/5) - Watching Strangers Smile: Cool track from Parquet Courts, I've liked both singles I've heard from the new album. The classic video game instrumental is super cool on this one. 26 Daisy the Great & AJR - Record Player (3.5/5) vs. Kacey Musgraves - Camera Roll (3.0/5) - Camera Roll: Okay track from Kacey. Definitely not as good as Justified or Cherry Blossom, but it's still very pleasant. 27 Lo Moon - Dream Never Dies (3.0/5) vs. Superchunk - Endless Summer (3.5/5) - Endless Summer: Hm, I thought this was Chunk No Captain Chunk when I first saw the band. Good piece of 90s power pop revival. Not bad, will return to it. 28 Beach House - Once Twice Melody (3.0/5) vs. Fontaines D.C. - Jackie Down the Line (3.5/5) - Jackie Down the Line: Haven't liked much of Fontaines' previous stuff, so I was pleasantly surprised by this one. This is a good track, has a cool early 90s vibe that I like more than their usual Idles-core. 29 Lucius - Next to Normal (3.0/5) vs. Jamestown Revival - Young Man (3.0/5) - Young Man: Jamestown Revival make ignorable to okay alt-country, I think this one falls more on the ignorable side of the spectrum. It's ok. 30 Gang of Youths - In the Wake of Your Leave (3.5/5) vs. Courtney Barnett - Write a List of Things to Look Forward To (3.0/5) 31 Sam Fender - Seventeen Going Under (3.5/5) vs. Wet Leg - Too Late Now (3.0/5) - Too Late Now: It's a step up from Chaise Longue, but I still just don't care much for the deadpan spoken word vocals at times, and it is a little annoying at times. I'm more willing to revisit though. 32 MUNA f/ Phoebe Bridgers - Silk Chiffon (3.5/5) vs. Pete Yorn - Elizabeth Taylor (3.0/5) 33 Indigo De Souza - Hold U (3.0/5) vs. Eddie Vedder - Brother the Cloud (3.5/5) 34 Bleachers - How Dare You Want More (3.5/5) vs. Nation of Language - Across That Fine Line (3.5/5) - Across That Fine Line: Decent retro synthpop track. Doesn't really do too much to stand out from the pack, but I do like the instrumental. 35 girl in red - I'll Call You Mine (3.5/5) vs. Yard Act - The Overload (3.5/5) - The Overload: This is the kind of modern post-punk I know y'all go wild for and I just don't like at all. But, the groove on this one is too good and the performance so wild I can't really ignore it. I do like this one. 36 Pete Yorn - Elizabeth Taylor (3.0/5) vs. Durand Jones & the Indications - The Way That I Do (3.5/5) - The Way That I Do: I've found this act pretty hit or miss from the start, but this one is definitely more of a hit. More of their retro funk-soul sound, but it's a good tune. 37 twenty one pilots - The Outside (2.0/5) vs. Gang of Youths - In the Wake of Your Leave (3.5/5) 38 Kacey Musgraves - Camera Roll (3.0/5) vs. DOPE LEMON - Rose Pink Cadillac (3.5/5) 39 Bob Moses - Love Brand New (3.0/5) vs. Nilüfer Yanya - Stabilise (4.0/5) - Stabilise: Love the guitars on this one. It's a really good song I've heard...somewhere before. Should listen to more of her stuff. 40 DOPE LEMON - Rose Pink Cadillac (3.5/5) vs. Aoife O'Donovan - Passengers (3.0/5) - Passengers: Pretty, good vocals. That's about it, I won't remember this. 41 Neal Francis - Problems (3.0/5) vs. Bonobo f/ Jordan Rakei - Shadows (3.5/5) - Problems: A little mixed on this one. It kinda just depends on my mood? I heard this on the radio yesterday and was jamming, but it's kinda just annoying me re-listening now. I like Neal's style, song is okay I guess. - Shadows: It's good, I like it. 42 The Walters - I Love You So (3.0/5) vs. The Cactus Blossoms - Hey Baby (3.0/5) - I Love You So: Tik Tok's weird. Anyway, this song wasn't really immediate for me, and I still think the verses are total flatlines, but I do actually love the chorus on this, very 60s pop rock flavored. Maybe a bit too lo-fi though. - Hey Baby: Uhh this sounds like a bit more country version of Dawes if they were around in the 80s. It's okay enough, not something I'll come back to. 43 Japanese Breakfast - Slide Tackle (4.0/5) vs. Greensky Bluegrass - Grow Together (3.5/5) - Grow Together: Hmm this singer sounds a lot like Adam Duritz? Or is that just me. Good bluegrass track though! I like this one, I think I'll come back to it, even at 7 minutes long. 44 Glass Animals - I Don't Wanna Talk (I Just Wanna Dance) (2.0/5) vs. The Smile - You Will Never Work in Television Again (3.5/5) - You Will Never Work in Television Again: Cool to see Radiohead doing a post-punk side project. I haven't listened to The Smoke yet, but I do like this one a good bit. Excited to hear more from them. Very 2000s. 45 Old Crow Medicine Show - Paint This Town (3.0/5) vs. Indigo De Souza - Hold U (3.0/5) - Paint This Town: This sounds like some old 70s country rock track that I'd swear I had heard before when I hear it in a barbeque restaurant. But uh I guess I have not heard it before. It's okay. 46 Manchester Orchestra - Telepath (3.0/5) vs. Mattiel - Jeff Goldblum (3.5/5) - Telepath: Ehh, as much as I liked Bed Head this is just more of the boring indie folk ManchO were making on their last album. Has grown on me a bit, but it's not one that I think too much of. - Jeff Goldblum: Def thought this said Trixie Mattel at first. CNCC & Trixie on non-comm, really broad horizons here (though she did actually just do a song with Shakey Graves). I like this one a lot, it's good. 47 Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Heading West vs. My Morning Jacket - Love Love Love (3.0/5) - Heading West: 48 Midlake - Bethel Woods (3.5/5) vs. Hurray for the Riff Raff - Pierced Arrows - Bethel Woods: Really strong first listen here. Almost wanna give it a 4/5, excellent vibe and detailed instrumental. - Pierced Arrows: 49 Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Searching for My Love (3.5/5) vs. girl in red - I'll Call You Mine (3.5/5) 50 Big Thief - Simulation Swarm (4.0/5) vs. John Mayer - Wild Blue (3.5/5)

AAA: Commercial vs. non-commercial:
Notes: - There are 51 spots this week due to a 3 way tie at #49 for the latter. - BRIGHTSIDE has been replaced by WHERE WE ARE. - #15 for both is Record Company so I swapped Beach House and them on non-comm as they're nearer compared to Crutch. - I'm excluding I Don't Wanna Talk from now on. It's done on alt and majority of the airplay comes from the AAAs who take forever to move on from older songs. So it's at its "lingering"stage now. Goodbye, let's free up another space.
