I spoke too soon and now my #1 is out. I love this song and am sad it is out before the top 10 but not one bit surprised. I know this song has never been a favorite for most people. Glad it made it this far though. Now hopefully my #2 can make the top 10 at least

"Kiss Goodbye" was definitely my favorite discovery of the rankdown! Such an amazing melody in the chorus, with heavenly harmonies. I am glad it lasted this long, considering it is a lesser-known song for them.
Also, you forgot "ciao", "adios", "hasta luego", and "get the fuck out of here."

"Kiss Goodbye" is a gorgeous song and I love it. I hate that it flopped so badly after LWC got them back on track w/ country radio. I feel like the failure of "Kiss Goodbye" was a turning point for the band too and they decided they needed to prop Karen up as the defacto lead vocalist. They definitely became much bigger and got a lot more success once that happened though.

"Kiss Goodbye" ... how do I describe my feelings for thee? First of all, the harmonies in the chrous are gorgeous.... HOWEVER. I honestly feel very little when I listen to this song. I remember the first time I listened to it... I said 'this isn't LBT." There's something about the lyrics and their delivery that's just a little 'off' to me. It also didn't help that the music video portrayed it as a break-up song... I'm sorry, first thing I thought of is a loved one dying and I thought to imply otherwise via a music video and/or interview was disheartening. Basically, it just never 'took' as one of my favorite LBT songs/singles.

I wasn't the lowest ranker for "Fine Line"!!! I find this song to be a bit boring to be quite honest.
Now that we're up to #13, things are going to get interesting from here because no songs are safe at this point! I'm going to guess that "A Little More You" and "Sober" will be out before we hit the top 10.

Oh I didn't expect we were getting more results!
"Day Drinking" is fun and nice and all but it seems pretty appropriate for this song to leave around this range. I ranked it at #9 because I like it a lot but LBT has better songs.

Yes "Good as Gone" is gone (because it was my lowest ranked song left and definitely not because I thought it was trash because LBT songs are incapable of being trash) I wasn't a fan of the singles from A Place to Land (except for "I'm with the Band" because I thought the lyrical theme of the song was nice and unique).

The Tornado era still remains unscathed!!! I love that album so much so I'm very happy!
I'm pleasantly surprised that "A Little More You" made the top 10 because I thought I would be one of the only few who ranked it high but I guess not! "Sober" is also one that I thought wouldn't make the top 10.
I'll take a stab at the top 10 predictions: 10. Sober 9. A Little More You 8. Your Side of the Bed 7. Boondocks 6. Tornado 5. Little White Church 4. Pontoon 3. Bring It On Home 2. Girl Crush 1. Better Man
I know I originally predicted "Little White Church" to be #1, but I now see "Better Man" winning it all. I think generally slower songs have fared better than the rockier/uptempo stuff (not that they have that many in this rankdown but "Good Lord Willing" didn't do well and "Good as Gone" is the first one out from The Road to Here era).

1. Better Man 2. Boondocks 3. Your Side of the Bed 4. Sober 5. Pontoon 6. Little White Church 7. Tornado 8. Bring It On Home 9. A Little More You 10. Girl Crush
I'm surprised Girl Crush made it this far, I know it's their biggest hit yet but it's not their best

Then I realized LBTrocks had ranked it at #3. Confusing LBTrocks with the real LBT lol

Surprised (and disappointed) to see that "A Little More You" made the Top 10. It's one of my least favorite singles of theirs, and I need it to leave asap. "Girl Crush" is overrated too and it can go, too. Everything else is in my Top 16 that made Top 10 so other than those aforementioned two, I'm fairly pleased with this set of songs. I love that the entire Tornado era made the Top 10 because from a singles standpoint, it's definitely their strongest/most consistent.

Entering into the top 15, I had my top 14 and my #16 left But now I've lost my #2 and #6, but other than those 2 gone, I have my 1-12 still in the game, so I'm still doing really well. I knew Kiss Goodbye and Shut Up Train wouldn't make it much further since they are slower, relatively unknown songs, but they are two of LBT's absolute best. But I'm overall VERY happy about the top 10 :) Top 5 will definitely be (in no particular order) Boondocks Pontoon Better Man Tornado Girl Crush

my prediction on how the Top 10 is gonna play out (I'm probably gonna be way off but I'm gonna try anyways)
10 - A Little More You 9 - Sober 8 - Little White Church 7 - Bring It On Home 6 - Pontoon 5 - Your Side of The Bed (Should be #1 imo) 4 - Tornado 3 - Girl Crush 2 - Boondocks 1 - Better Man
I could see Boondocks being #1 also, but I do think that Better Man will take it

Gonna predict this is how the Top 10 will look:
10 - A Little More You 09 - Sober 08 - Bring It On Home 07 - Your Side of The Bed 06 - Little White Church 05 - Girl Crush 04 - Tornado 03 - Pontoon 02 - Better Man 01 - Boondocks
I think it's between Boondocks and Better Man for the win, but I'll be different and predict the former instead of the latter as most have done. ;)
I would love to see LWC sneak into the Top 5, but I'm not too confident about that happening.

Yeah I'm online! I was just checking the results for the 1998 Billboard Airplay Year-End rankdown, what good timing!
That rankdown has been wild so far (as in I'm not going to do well on that rankdown based on the first 15 reveals) so it's nice I have this one too.

.indulgecountry and castleoblivion26 predicted this would come it at #10, and they nailed it! Also, this is my and fearlessarrow 's exact ranking for it lol so I'm happy. The song is such a catchy little jam! And that remains one of my favorite LBT music videos ever!
