This is such an average song, so the glut of middle ranks makes sense.

Another fairly low standard deviation for #12, but we say goodbye to four Top 10 rankings here.

This sounds like an alright post-2013 Fall Out Boy reject, which is different from the rest of their album, which sounds like bad Fall Out Boy rejects. lmao Fall Out Boy wouldn't make anything close to "Revolution" or "A Song to Stifle Imperial Progression (A Work In Progress)".

Yeah, those two songs were the only ones that wouldn't qualify. Everything else, though... yeah, it wasn't good. Generation Throwaway? Make Believe? I didn't like them at all

"Lookin' Like That" by: Jordan Fisher Points: 218Average rank: 14.53Standard deviation: 7.35Ranks:

James' thoughts: I didn't care for this song at first, then it grew on me, then it grew off of me. It's a nice pop song, and it definitely should have been a hit for Jordan. Overall, this is right where it belongs as well.

Before I announce #11, what do you think doesn't have what it takes to make it to the Top 10?

I honestly would have expected this bottom 10 with a much higher SD, so I'm pleasantly amazed Jordan did so well in this particular mix of songs.

I considered ranking this top 10 for a little bit. One hell of a first listen,..and subsequent listens.

"Bittersweet" by: Zac Brown Band Points: 215Average rank: 14.33Standard deviation: 8.21Ranks:
aerodynamite - #4 Beno - #4 Red - #4 @antigonerising - #7 wheatsquares33 - #7 @jamesflame - #9 Daryl the Beryl - #13 maine - #15 Green Baron - #16 matteeeb - #17 Leo ✔ - #20 Az Paynter - #23 Chelsea Press 2 - #24 Juan Carlos - #25 Sambalada - #27
James' thoughts: Great song. I was hoping it would sneak into the Top 10 instead of a certain song, but #11 is pretty solid. I think the buildup to this is really good, but it would have been better if it came a bit faster? Happy to see the love for this even though it wasn't a single for them.

Dammit, I was REALLY hoping "Bittersweet" would be in the top 10. That song is too good.

Construction zones have more discernible melody than White Limo does. It took long enough.

didn't I already go on a rant about how melody doesn't matter and enjoyment from songs should be derived from other factors
I don't remember which rankdown it was, but it was one of them

didn't I already go on a rant about how melody doesn't matter and enjoyment from songs should be derived from other factors I don't remember which rankdown it was, but it was one of them Too bad White Limo doesn't have any other factors I find worth enjoying. I look for three things in the music I like: lyrics, melody, production/arrangement. Not necessarily in that order, and a song can be somewhat weak in one area and make up for it in the other two (see: vast majority of pop music which heavily relies on melody and production to overcome fairly basic lyricism). But you can't come to me with screaming so unpleasant that I can't even make out what you're saying (and frankly don't want to) and 'turn all the instruments up to 11' that makes it impossible to hear how good the guitar work may or may not be. That song was literally nothing but loud noise. How the hell am I supposed to rank that? But it wasn't Dangerous, so at least it has that going for it.

Oh, maine you have a top 11 list in your last post, not a top 10. And also I'm not sure but it looks like you just gave all of Leo's remaining ranks away lol. what I have left: 1 2 4 5 9 12 13 14 17 23 I'm okay with this. Everything from 17 up, I like; and I didn't have a strong negative reaction to 23, just didn't care for it much.

Oopsie daisy, I forgot to take out "Bittersweet". I didn't. The numbers that are there are from the reveal order when I was revealing each song for the first time. I removed them to avoid further confusion. If that was Leo's rank numbers left, that's rather coincidental and hilarious lol.

I was expecting my #1 to go out before the top 10. But "Bittersweet"...still stings a bit.
