Well, at least it's easy to spot the three four people everyone will be mad at. :kii: And, honestly, I'll take all the hate for this and lavish in it. It's, honestly, my least favorite single of theirs. You heard me.

What the actual f**k
10 vs. 22...at least this wasn't a very predictable top 2?

lmao, we all thought it would be 1901 vs. Midnight City, but instead, it's neither.

Didn't see this top 2 coming at all. "The Funeral" for the win.

Neither of the top 2 are my favorites, but I'm still happy with the outcome. It's nice to see an unexpected winner sometimes.

At least we didn't have Zedd to tank Radiohead for this rankdown...

I'm convinced, at this point, that Radiohead can only win within their own rankdown. And yet, I was rooting for "The Funeral" to win once "Midnight City" went out, because, really, who doesn't love a surprise winner? Besides Daryl, of course.

wow, only a 6 point difference! Close but happy Band of Horses won as it was completely unexpected vs. Radiohead who get enough accolades.

I had the Funeral at 299 points but I realized it was a calculation error. It still won though

Let Down is good for a Radiohead song, normally I would tank them too. The Funeral is a good winner, that song is sorely underrated.

To recall, Holocene has the highest standard deviation, while Thinking of a Place surprisingly (to me at least, since I thought people'd tank it for being 11 minutes long) has the lowest standard deviation.
Also, Bloodbuzz Ohio would've been my #1 if I redid my list. (maybe it's because I'm in National hype mode now after their latest album release)
