Trojans and Take a Walk need to go away, they already had their shot in the 2013 rankdown. And as much as I love Lights, it doesn't belong on Alt. 1. Somebody That I Used to Know 2. Midnight City 3. Lights 4. Shake It Out 5. Little Talks 6. Anna Sun 7. Take a Walk 8. These Days 9. Cough Syrup 10. Trojans

anyone who has studied up on past rankdowns should know what my one Bottom 10 left is, I'm probably preventing it from getting near #1 so that's cool with me. Only managed to get 2 Top 10s into the real Top 10 which is way down from my usual count. Also really happy to see Madness miss out on the Top 10, I think it's really overrated and spent a ludicrous amount of time at #1. I think Lights is the Joyride-esque darkhorse for #1 this rankdown. Everyone is saying they like it but are surprised it made it this far just like the Chevelle track when it won. also, let me say for the record I'm happily surprised Lights made it this far.

I'll give the top 10 prediction a shot. {TOP 10}1) Lights 2) Little Talks 3) These Days 4) Midnight City 5) Somebody That I Used To Know 6) Trojans 7) Take a Walk 8) Anna Sun 9) Shake It Out 10) Cough Syrup
Probably giving "These Days" a bit too much credit, beating out STIUTK AND "Midnight City", but it's done this well...why stop now?

I ranked "Lights" a bit too low because, well, it's not Alternative, but now that you guys ruined the prospects of 45, I'm gonna root for it just to see the anarchy unfold

My prediction
1. Midnight City (I think this will have more #1's than Lights which might give it the edge but Lights will likely have a lower SD) 2. Lights 3. These Days 4. Anna Sun 5. Somebody That I Used To Know 6. Little Talks 7. Cough Syrup 8. Trojans 9. Take a Walk 10. Shake It Out

Okay, how thE FUCK IS LIGHTS STILL IN? I mean it's not a terrible song by any means but it barely alternative and I thought most of the rock posters disliked it and it would be out around 50. As much as I dislike the pop poster bashing, I am kind of angry at some of the pop posters that boosted that song (and some of the other crossovers, but at least those have their rock board fans and are more alternative)
I'm also surprised Trojans is top 10, didn't that only do okay on the 2013 rankdown? Not complaining since I actually really like the song but I thought I was the only one.
Anyways not too happy about the way things have done. My #1 is still in and I think I ranked Trojans top 15-ish so I'd be fine with that winning. I'd be annoyed if any other song won though (yes, even my namesake) and unlike some of the other rankdowns where most of the top ten songs I liked less were still in my top 50, most of the remaining songs are somewhere between 50-70 on my list which really isn't good. Like seriously, couldn't we have at least had Reunion and Bloody Mary in the top 10, both which I figured were near locks? :/
Anyways my prediction: 1. Midnight City 2. Anna Sun 3. Little Talks 4. Lights 5. Shake It Out 6. Somebody That I Used to Know 7. Take a Walk 8. Cough Syrup 9. These Days 10. Trojans
But honestly nothing would surprise me at this point

16. It's Time - Imagine Dragons To this moment; the only song I still like from this band. Even "Top of The World" sounds crappy to me now.
15. Burn It Down-Linkin Park One of the few songs I love from this band. Even more than my fellow Rocksters do.
14. Bloody Mary (Nerve Endings) - Silversun Pickups I never really cared for this song. It goes absolutely nowhere musically.
13. Gold on the Ceiling - The Black Keys Not bad. Sounded better to me this round, than when it actually was around on the charts.
12. Madness - Muse Classic Muse. A perfect ranking for this song.
11. Lonely Boy - The Black Keys It's allright. I might have over ranked it?

It's great to see one female sung song go the distance, but two is even better. BTW, I love "Lights" and "Starry Eyes". Three of my top 10 songs are still in here, and I really hope they kick some ass?

If you ranked it higher than 45 then I don't know what to say {ANOTHER SPOILER...KIND OF, SORT OF}I did not. For that to happen, it would had to have been #1 or #2. "Madness" was my #2. My #1 is one of my favorite songs of all time. I've mentioned this before, I believe.

Only #1 is definitively among my favorite songs, period. I even said as much when it won one of the Rock Tournaments.

I really have two from my bottom 10 left? Yeah... I certainly don't like the way this has gone. I can't be the one with no Top 10s left since my #9 I believe is still in play.
