Resubmitted!
This was hard. I'm ready for the backlash that I'm gonna get on where I placed a few songs at, especially, the #2 spot since it's from Ghost Stories!

Doing this made me realize how much I liked Ghost Stories.
Doing this made me realize how much I didn't like Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends.

Haha I lied, this will start either August 13th or August 14th. I just need to calculate a few more songs and work on the presentation, and we should be good to go. We already have locks for both #35 and #1, but every other spot is still up for grabs! Sorry to keep everyone waiting, but I have been busy.
Survey: 1. What song do you think will win it all? 2. What song do you think will end up at #35? 3. What song do you think will have the highest standard deviation? 4. What songs do you hope/predict will be in the top 10?

1. What song do you think will win it all? Viva la Vida or Clocks 2. What song do you think will end up at #35? Something Just Like This for sure 3. What song do you think will have the highest standard deviation? Hymn for the Weekend or Adventure of a Lifetime probably 4. What songs do you hope/predict will be in the top 10? Viva la Vida, Clocks, Yellow, The Scientist, Speed of Sound, Violet Hill, Fix You, Paradise, Every Teardrop is a Waterfall & Hymn for the Weekend

1. What song do you think will win it all? I'm going with "Clocks".
2. What song do you think will end up at #35? "Something Just Like This" feels like a lock. If not, it'll be out before the 30s. One of their earlier, lesser known singles could be #35 too?
3. What song do you think will have the highest standard deviation? "Adventure of a Lifetime" and "Hymn for the Weekend" should be good bets. I could actually see "Something Just Like This" having one, but then I would bet it's not #35.
4. What songs do you hope/predict will be in the top 10? "Clocks", "Fix You", "Yellow", "The Scientist", "Paradise", "Speed of Sound", "Viva La Vida", "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall", "Magic", "Everglow".

No way SJLT is last. It'll be some random, lesser-known song, as always.

Yeah for last place I was thinking something like The Hardest Part (hope not) or All I Can Think About Is You.

Up&Up could be another candidate for last imo no way It finished in the 80s in the 2016 rankdown and I only know a few people who love that track. It may not finish last, but I think it should be bottom 10.

Lol I think the Christmas song will be last.
I certainly hope Clocks doesn't make a run for #1, I have that song pretty low. My least favorite of their big hits by far.

I might turn into a shade of Green if "Teardrop" makes the top 10 over "Trouble" or "Shiver".

I don't mind "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" and am fine with it making Top 10. It didn't make my Top 10, but I do like it.

1. What song do you think will win it all? "Clocks" - "Viva la Vida" seems to have its haters on here.
2. What song do you think will end up at #35? Hoping it'll be "Hymn for the Weekend", but that's probably going to be one of the more polarizing ones. I'll go with "Christmas Lights".
3. What song do you think will have the highest standard deviation? "Hymn for the Weekend". ("Adventure of a Lifetime" and "A Sky Full of Stars" will likely have high SDs as well.)
4. What songs do you hope/predict will be in the top 10? Hoping for "Shiver", "Magic", "Midnight", and any Viva la Vida singles other than the title track. (as far as predicting goes, "Viva la Vida", "Yellow" and "Clocks" will definitely make the top 10)

I am under no illusion that either of those songs are locks for the top 10, but, like you, I hope they are in the top 10. I irrationally hate "Teardrop". It's basically Coldplay sinking to the level of their imitators, when they're capable of so much more than that.

1. What song do you think will win it all? "The Scientist" or "Clocks"
2. What song do you think will end up at #35? One of the singles (except "Adventure of a Lifetime" and "Hymn for the Weekend") from A Head Full of Dreams?
3. What song do you think will have the highest standard deviation? "Paradise"? It does seem to have its share of both lovers and haters. "A Sky Full of Stars" and "Hymn for the Weekend" will also have high SDs. Idk about "Adventure of a Lifetime" since I don't know if it will have enough high ranks.
4. What songs do you hope/predict will be in the top 10? Predict: "The Scientist", "Clocks", "Viva La Vida", "Fix You", "Yellow" Hope: I hope "Paradise" can sneak in but I doubt it.
