#7 is only 2 points higher than the #8 song, and is actually from the same album, so it's two Riser eliminations in a row! I'm ready to say goodbye to my #1 so just end the suspense. It's just time to say goodbye as I feel like it's on borrowed time. So the suspense continues... Put that song out of its misery.

I like "I Hold On" but it's never been a huge standout for Dierks Bentley honestly.

"I Hold On" is such a good song, and should have been in the top 5! I can understand why people find it boring, but to me the lyrics are a major selling point, and the production and vocal delivery works perfectly together to help express the emotional significance of said lyrics.

I like "Say You Do" but other than that I hate everything that has been eliminated in the top 10 thus far.

I remember the first time I heard I Hold On. It was the third time he had ever played it live, in Roanoke VA. My friends and I had no idea what direction his next album would go with but the second the song started I breathed a sigh of relief.
Now it's one of the highlights of every show. When I started following Dierks in 2004, he was opening for George Strait and playing bars, and now people are screaming the words to this song back at him while he stands there taking it in. Literally I get goosebumps every time.

That awkward moment when cerulean ranks it at #3 and causes it to fall a position... When I saw your post I was like "S**t, did I make a mistake!?!?" but it wasn't so phew... So the last 3 submissions went like this for SYD and IHO: dm2081's submission: I Hold On: 527 points Say You Do: 526 points cerulean's submission Say You Do: 560 points (cerulean's #1) I Hold On: 559 points (cerulean's #3) JT's submission I Hold On: 593 points (JT's #1) Say You Do: 591 points (JT's #4)

"Drunk On A Plane" is my #2 so I hope it makes the top 5 but since everything left is a top 10 for me I'm good either way.
"I Hold On" is easily my favorite song he has ever done and I'm really sad it isn't top 5, the lyrics are incredible, maybe simple but it does its job at conveying the emotions he is going for.
Edit: well "Drunk On A Plane" misses top 5 but I am okay with that because the remaining 5 songs are all great

I should like "Drunk on a Plane" more than I do, but I don't for reasons that lay outside of Pulse.

I like "Bourbon In Kentucky" don't get me wrong, but it's just not one of Dierks Bentleys defining hits so I just can't imagine it getting to #1 for this rankdown.

Brokenhearted, even if I knew it was inevitable. I love you, Bourbon. Forever and eveerrrrrrrr.
And also this is not my fave Dierks SONG just my fave Dierks SINGLE and really my top 5 are pretty much tied.

Out of the 4 songs. Here's how I think it'll go
1. What Was I Thinking 2. Settle For A Slowdown 3. Every Mile A Memory 4. Long Trip Alone
The fact my #1 made the Top 4 leaves me so happy right now.

Oh yeah, this is the first time in any rankdown I participated in that my #1 is in the top 5. Maybe it can go all the way?
