and now I'm listening to Moon Taxi's entire Young Journey album (small spoiler there, but too good not to give it a mention). (I'm assuming you're talking about Mountains Beaches Cities?) Lol yes smh. Total brainfart on my part, but I think that was the track I was on at the time I made that post so I typed the song title instead of the album title

That album is probably my second favorite of theirs behind Daybreaker (their latest). I'm happy "Morocco" was included because it's one of their best songs.

Rev up those engines boys (and girl!) because we start revealing TONIGHT! We picked up two more lists yesterday to give us a total of 15. I'm not sure when we'll be starting, but around 7 PM CST should be my guess. We'll be revealing 5 songs a day until we conclude our rankdown! Rejoice! I'll tag again right before I reveal #30. Any final guesses for what #30 should be? Final participants: 1. James 2. Beno 3. Ezekiel 23:20–21 4. wheatsquares33 5. aerodynamite 6. @jamesflame 7. Az Paynter 8. Red 9. @antigonerising 10. Leo ✔ 11. matteeeb 12. Sambalada 13. Daryl the Beryl 14. Green Baron 15. Juan Carlos

I reckon My Darkest Days and 7Lions don't stand much of a chance at all.

I didn't think that I knew that 7Lions song...but it was once the theme song for WWE Smackdown.
I was kind of floored when it got to the chorus. "Wait, this is THAT song?!"

yeah I'll keep up. I'm aware that this isn't a Rock-only rankdown, so I won't ramble on about Pop posters, it's not really Rock territory they're invading on
at least until White Limo shows up but until then

Before I reveal #30, I will say that the rankdown goes in golf points (so more points = bad). I will be revealing 5 songs a day every day, so we should finish by Sunday (if I know how to add correctly).
With #30, two people lose their #30, while we see our first Top 5 loss, and another Top 10 loss. What could it be?

#30
Robin Thicke f/ Juicy J - "One Shot" Points: 344Average rank: 22.93Standard deviation: 8.59Ranks:
Leo ✔ - #3 matteeeb - #8 Ezekiel 23:20–21 - #15 aerodynamite - #16 Az Paynter - #20 Red - 26 @antigonerising - #27 @jamesflame - #27 Green Baron - #28 Juan Carlos - #28 wheatsquares33 - #28 maine - #29 Sambalada - #29 Beno - #30 Daryl the Beryl - #30
James' thoughts: this was pretty much expected for me lol. I was fully expecting this to be #30 from the start. I don't mind the song, but it pales in comparison to the rest of the list. With Leo and Zedd's list, they actually really helped the song, but Sam, Daryl, Green Baron, and Juan Carlos brought it down fast with the last four lists.

Looks like the artist's reputation worked against the song here. The song itself is decent, though.

Not at all shocked. Robin already isn't well-liked here as it is, and this song in particular simply isn't good, so I knew he'd be spared no mercy. I was mostly just annoyed that he was counting the shots down instead of up - it didn't make sense for the progression of the song. Juicy J's part was an unfortunate waste of a good feature.

Speaking of Robin Thicke though; had this been 'Back Together' I would have been one of the ones trying and likely failing to prop it up.

For #29, we see one more #30 go. This song has the second lowest standard deviation in the game, and is really the only song to not get any love in any way, shape, or form.

#29
"Without You" by: My Darkest Days Points: 342 Average rank: 22.8 Standard deviation: 3.80Ranks:
Green Baron - #17 Az Paynter - #18 maine - #18 @jamesflame - #20 Juan Carlos - #21 matteeeb - #21 @antigonerising - #22 Leo ✔ - #23 wheatsquares33 - #23 Beno - #24 Red - #25 Sambalada - #25 Daryl the Beryl - #27 Ezekiel 23:20–21 - #28 aerodynamite - #30
James' thoughts: I was a bit disappointed to see this this low. I think it's a sweet ballad, especially coming from a band that has spewed out songs like "Porn Star Dancing" and "Casual Sex". There were no high rankings for this at all, as this didn't even rank in the top half of anyone's list. This was #30 for a little while, but Green Baron and Juan Carlos saved it with their votes towards "One Shot" being lower than their's for this.

I mean, it's probably the best MDD song I've heard. At least there's that?
Also, lol @ Green being the highest on this by default.

This song is... not good, admittedly, but for an MDD song it could have been much worse
"Like Nobody Else" is their best song I've heard, and this one is more in that vein than "Casual Sex" or "Porn Star Dancing".
