Why do I start what I can't finish?

From the looks of it, almost all of their best songs were never singles, which means that the RD will be based off their most acclaimed and popular songs. I found a list that looks like it would work - their 14 songs that charted on Alt, plus 22 singles that charted somewhere else, plus 14 acclaimed tracks, bringing the total to an even 50 songs.

I think I should start an Ed Sheeran rankdown after my current one.

And I might do a personal RD before but I'll still try to do this.

Sorry for double post, but I think I should wait until after 2014 Urban for 2013. I just decided on songs for a personal rankdown, so would it be okay to open the thread now so I'll have time to reveal all the songs?

Hey country fans, fyi! I am planning to open the Faith Hill rankdown right after the Tim McGraw deadline passes. That way y'all can start submitting for that one while I reveal the results for her husband, and then her reveal will come shortly after the Tim one finishes.

YES Faith Hill I'll definitely do that one!!! How interesting the Tim McGraw one and the Faith Hill one would be right after another with the same host! Seems fitting for husband and wife :)

Now that it's about time for me to reveal my #2s rankdown, here are the future rankdowns I have planned: - Mariah is coming up next, semi-TBA deadline of mid-August. Thread - 80s and 90s r&b - I am probably going to turn this into a series of different 80s/90s rankdowns because there are so many ways to go about it. For now, the first one will be a New Jack Swing rankdown. Deadline TBA but I'll probably run this one concurrently with my Mariah rankdown. - I checked and did not see anyone claim this, so: I call dibs on a Halloween-themed rankdown! I am not going to start the thread this early, but I have a tentative list in mind for this already so born please put this one in the queue! I'm going to set a hard deadline of October 8 so I can be sure to have everything counted up and revealed just in time for Halloween. - someone requested that I do a #3 songs rankdown similar to my current #2 songs rankdown with the 'free picks' format, so that will come eventually, after the Halloween rankdown probably. I don't have plans to make a series out of it with #4/5/6/etc. peaking songs so I won't be mad if someone else wants to snatch that one from me. Mid September/Octoberish: This is more of an idea, so i'm curious on feedback. My idea was that everybody would send in two of their all time favourite songs, it can be from any artist/year/genre, just as long as it has a Spotify or YouTube audio it will work! Anyways after that, I will reveal everybody's picks, and you will then listen to all of the songs, then rank them like you would in a normal rankdown. Only thing is, you wouldn't include your own songs on your list, because they would obviously be your #1 and #2. I would then reveal the results, and the song that gets the least points wins! It would be a good opportunity to explore new music, and to learn about each others favourites songs. Would you guys try this out? Let me know. I love this idea! It's kind of like a rankdown/madness tournament mashup which is very cool. The only thing I would suggest is that you tell people to submit a few 'alternate' picks in case their two most favorite songs are already taken by someone else. I also like castleoblivion26's idea of asking people to pick one favorite song from childhood and one favorite recent song to encourage a diverse list. I'm VERY new to rankdowns. The first one I participated was the Kelly Clarkson one, and now I'm sort of addicted lol So first I wanted to congratulate all Pulsers who've been proposing and organizing rankdowns, which does seem quite a job! Second, I'm just reading this thread -or more like peeking the last pages- so I just saw this post and I love this idea! I certainly loved the #2s too. This idea of favorite childhood and adulthood songs and even any sort of obscure song would be pretty fun and interesting. So I share my support :)

I'm thinking of doing a quick Robyn rankdown, if there's interest. Also, I can scrape together enough fans of veteran acts, I'd love to do Tina Turner I probably know 10 songs from Robyn, but I'd certainly be interested in learning more of her and listening to more of her music, so I'd be IN. And I'd certainly be IN for Tina!!! I was a kid during her PD era but following the charts already and What's Love was huge in my personal chart and an inspiration for me and my mom to see a powerful woman like her having that type of comeback. I've been a fan ever since and caught up with her older discography. Love her!! Depending on interest, I might reserve Alanis. I might do a poll to gage interest on a couple different artists. Count me in for Alanis. She's very special for me, as a few of her songs accompanied me in key moments of my life, including mom's cancer and first boyfriend. Would love to dig deeper into her earlier discography too.

Hey bboat11 do you think I could do Brad Paisley after Dierks Bentley is done? Also, did we end up reaching a conclusion on who's hosting the Kenny Chesney rankdown? I would certainly be down for participating in that one! After all, Kenny and Tim were the biggest artists of the 2000s so it only makes sense there's a rankdown for Kenny now that there's a rankdown for Tim!

what about an Aerosmith rankdown? I mentioned it in the 1998 Billboard Airplay Year End Chart Rankdown thread. They are one of my favorite acts, up there with Martina McBride. Would anyone be interested in participating in that?

I was actually thinking a Brad Paisley rankdown would be pretty fun just yesterday! Hey @anythingbutmine, did you want to host Kenny Chesney, or were you just saying you would like to participate in it if somebody else hosts?

2014 Country wins the award to the most funny 2013 Alt wins to the most salty Honestly, I think 2015 Country was better than 2014. I mean, they're both great, but 2015 was a perfect storm of hilarious messiness. It's the one where LBTrocks got incredibly drunk and became Lucas Ben Thomas because @walker9 didn't know what LBT was. And then drunk sabre14 showed up. And then Mr. Thonk Eyes randomly told us all who his crush is just because he got enough likes. And then raylatch98 posted a picture of himself and promptly took it down because y'all are scary as fuck. And then Lucas Ben Thomas posted a video of gravey juggling at Target that gravey didn't even know he had posted on Pulse before. And sooooo much more that I am forgetting And this was all during the top 10 reveal...

I want to start a personal rankdown soon, but there are way too many rankdowns right now so I'll wait for a few to finish before starting mine! And once I'm done with that rankdown, I'll be starting the Kelsea Ballerini rankdown, which should be taking me to around the year-end season, and I might do a year-end themed rankdown once that is done.
Plus I have to finish Family Feud haha. There are a few reasons I didn't finish it earlier that I'll elaborate about in the thread, but Family Feud results should be finished by Friday or Saturday!
