Ugh, I used to love Anberlin. I was all about "Breaking" and "Feel Good Drag" back in the day.

I'm just about ready to tsend this in, I have a quick question about "Porn Star Dancing"? Are we taking into account that s**t version with Ludacris? Or the rock version with Chad Kroeger? It's still a bad song, but it makes about a 15 notch ,higher, difference in my book, for Chad's part alone? Any version. The one I put in the Spotify playlist features neither iirc. For the record I'm pretty sure all the versions feature Chad (and Zack Wylde) -- however the pop version also features Ludacris and the production is a little more synthetic feeling. I feel ashamed that I know this Anyways this was a pretty great year for alt. There's a lot of stuff that could make my top ten -- however I'm not sure what my #1 will be, as there really isn't 1-2 standout songs for me (well there was one, but it's really burned on me, it'll probably make my top 10 but idk about any higher). I'll def be submitting my list in the next few days, pretty excited for this one.

Just added aerodynamite's, Dr. Indie's and Zedd's lists to the mix. Some notes: - The original #1 returns to the top. - Again, one song fell from the top 10 to the top 25. - Two songs enter from the top 20 to the top 6. - Another song escapes the bottom 10. - What was #99 before this has moved up a few slots. just going to take a shot at these guesses, but not give away actual titles. 1. I'm hoping I helped out, if its from the band, I think it's from 2. I'm thinking one of those unmelodic jobs that I we ranked low. 3. I like to think I helped out with this too. 4. Obviously a hard rock song that should be coming in a lot higher. 5. If this is the song, I think it is? The Music video didn't let me put it in bottom 10.

After re-listening to a lot of this, I have to say 2011 was a really good year for Alt. I think it's fair to say that I don't dislike my top 83, would go out of my way to listen to anything in my top 55, and love my top 39. A lot of these brought me back to my early days of high school...which isn't necessarily a good thing because high school sucked, but it's a nice throwback anyway

I just finished ranking 2010 Alt. I need something else in my life that's not rankdowns.

I'm probably going to skip this one. I haven't really been in the rankdown mood of late.
Tag me in results.

Would you accept submissions at around 10 am EST on the 28th? I got caught behind with this rankdown because of the Linkin Park & J. Cole Rankdowns I had to do and I don't think I'll be able to send before the deadline as I need to go over ~80 new songs.

I'll start a poll regarding the pre-rankdown duration whether we should stick to 3 weeks or move it to 4 weeks.

wheatsquares33 sent me his list not too long ago, and I believe he kicked at least one song out of the top 10. However, with rowellfarm490's list, that particular song has returned to the top 10. Rowell also made the song that previously entered the bottom 10 in the last post escape it again, and in it's place, another song enters the bottom 10.

3 weeks is good enough. We have too many years to get through and adding an extra week for each year is going to waste even more time and delay us months if it happens. 4 weeks is way too long. Each 4 rankdowns = 4 extra weeks = a whole month! We'd be delaying ourselves one month for every four rankdowns! I had my list finished before the 2012 rankdown even began. 90% of us already submitted our list. We shouldn't have to cater to a small minority that would just delay our endeavors even further.

Yeah, don't extend. 3 weeks is plenty of time. I just don't want to do it.

Funniest thing is that you guys actually agreed on quite a few songs in the 2012 rankdown.
I mean, you guys had disagreements, too, but everyone does in these rankdowns. Hell, we've had our share of disagreements, Green. "Aberdeen" is a prime example.

I'm hell-bent on hating these people as long as I live I mean, a part of me hopes you never change your mind, because your rants on "those damn pop posters" are one of the things I look forward to most every time an Alt rankdown is revealed. I'm disappointed when you don't rant. I'm just saying, there were far worse offenders than indulge in the last rankdown. I won't name names, but you know who you are.
