Wow, you guys suck for tanking "Oblivion". That song was dangerously close to being #1

I am not going to complain much because I knew I would do terrible in this rankdown but Fancy and You've Lost That Loving Feeling out before top 20?!? I know you people don't like country music so i expected Fancy to be out soon but You've Lost That Loving Feeling - this song is classic and songs like this shouldn't be out in bottom half of rankdown.

Well, that attempt at a survey flopped. How about some more stats before we get into the 20-11 reveal later tonight?
Some facts about these stats: - rgreen is the only poster who has yet to lose their #40. - As of right now, myself and Green are the only people to lose their bottom ten, but, without spoiling anything, I can also tell you that at least one of you will lose their remaining bottom tens in this next update. - Obviously, this list will change when we get to the top ten, but for some of you, this is going to change dramatically...

Guess we're revealing 20-11 quicker than I thought we would. I had free time on my hands.
#20 had quite the roller coaster ride., though it was more of a kiddie roller coaster than a adult roller coaster. This was a song that had its detractors and its supporters, but the most common reaction among the posters was "eh". Six posters lose top tens here, including two #2s, while we also lose five bottom tens, including, finally, the last #40. Congratulations, rgreen...you're finally free of your #40 shackles. Oh, wait, what's that? You're being tied up again? Apparently, you've pissed off someone royally and they don't want to let you go!

For the record, I was referring to the other Green...but I can't say that I'm too happy about this, either.

*insert Baron rant here*
I wanted to like this one more than I did, but wouldn't have minded if it was a few spots higher.

#19 is, likely, the biggest comeback story of the entire rankdown. With nine posters having submitted their rankings, this was in the bottom ten. That's also where most of its five bottom tens came from. Along the way, though, more high rankings started to pop up. Before we got into the double digit mark, I was actually the third highest ranking for this song...and it was barely in my top 20. Most of this song's five top tens came after we started getting more rankings. Fun fact: This song also does not have any top three or bottom three rankings, but it does have THIRTEEN top twenty rankings. Also, only TWO people placed this song outside of the top 20 after the first nine rankings. What a comeback, indeed.

#18 was one of the original top ten constants, being in the top ten for the first thirteen rankings, and, even after it fell out, still seemingly close to the top ten at every point, including being tied for #10 late in the process. The last couple of rankings just doomed this song, though, and that's evident in the divide between the posters on this song. Say hello to the fifth-highest standard deviation. This is a song with seven top ten rankings, including six in the top five and *gulp* a #1 ranking. Meanwhile, eight people put this song in their bottom ten, including three bottom three rankings, which is, ultimately, what caused this song to plummet deeper into the teens.
Oh, by the way, did I mention that #18 was tied with #19? I didn't? Well, now you know...

#17 was just...kind of there throughout the ranking process. Sometimes, it would lean closer to the bottom ten, and other times, it would lean closer to the bottom ten, but it never seriously contended for either. For a while, I was the only person to put this song in their top ten. Thankfully, three more people joined me before too long. Only three people lose bottom tens here with this reveal, but one does lose their #39. And they've already wondered if their #39 was coming in this thread today...well, you're about to get your wish.
(Also, how dare you. :( )

If Billy Corgan had a better voice I'd like Smashing Pumpkins a lot more. Kinda weird considering I dig a bunch of unconventional singers (and also weird that I love SSPU when many say they have pretty similar vocals) but his voice has always been grating to me despite many attempts to have their music grow on me.

Queen are one of my favourite rock bands and this song is quite good although I prefere some other singles from Innuendo album.

Queen are one of my favourite rock bands and this song is quite good although I prefere some other singles from Innuendo album. I've grown to have a special attachment to "Innuendo". It and "The Show Must Go On" might actually be my favorite Queen songs. They have so many great songs, though, so the distinction of "favorite Queen song" can definitely change by the day. #16 marks a big jump in point totals, with #16 having more than 20 points more than "Innuendo". From this point on, EVERY song has contended for the top ten (or even higher) at one point. This song was a constant early in the top ten, and it made a comeback into the top ten late, only to slide down with the last couple of rankings. Sounds a lot like #18, actually, though the drop, obviously, was not as steep. Seven posters (including, yet again, me) lose a top ten, including a #1, while only three lose a bottom ten...though, if I'm not mistaken, one poster clears their bottom ten here.

btw just noticed the font in your graphics is the same one from the Banjo-Kazooie games on the N64 so you just (perhaps unintentionally) earned a bunch of bonus hosting quality points from me

If not for two other songs performing better than I could have possibly expected, #15 would have marked my most pleasant surprise of the rankdown. This was mostly a staple of the 11-20 range for most of the rankdown, though it did come mighty close to being in the top ten at one point in the process. With this reveal, we will see five top tens fall to the wayside, including a #2 AND a #3 (and pile on the misery for one poster, in particular), and we will also lose three bottom tens, including one that will clear out another poster's bottom ten.

The Show Must Go On is amazing song. It's one of the first Queen songs that i have ever heard and it still remains one of my favourites. Intro is awesome and than Freddies vocals and beautiful lyrics - pure perfection.
