Time to update things: Almost done with revealing Patty Loveless' album tracks rankdown. Once that is done I will begin reveals for Deana Carters Everything's Gonna Be Alright. My hope is to wrap these two within the next week and then finally move on. At this point I am keeping the Shuffle series on hold, possibly permanent but I might bring it back at some point. I want to focus on getting some albums done that I've wanted to do for some time. Speaking of, I am going to open a thread within the next week or so that will be a monthly album series. Each month I will do a different album that I've wanted to have us all rank. This thread will include albums from Rebecca Lynn Howard, Alecia Elliott, Lila McCann, Clay Davidson, Kellie Coffey, and some other similar artist. One album I plan to do that is not going to be part of that is Carly Pearce's 29: Written In Stone. We've waited long enough to rank that album and that album needs to be ranked! I have made the decision that I am not going to be doing Album Track rankdowns any further as they don't get the support to warrant continuing to do them. I think some artist may work but for the most part it isn't something I'm going to be doing any more. Starting with Brooks & Dunn. That means the upcoming Extras rankdown for them will be the finale of that series! I do plan to begin The Wilkinsons series with the Singles rankdown soon and will then launch into their individual albums. Once I complete them I will do Mark Wills, Collin Raye, and Blackhawk as well most likely following that series being completed but I may go back and forth between them. Lastly, the Deana Carter series will continue and I am gonna keep it to 1 album at a time instead of 2 together. That means her 3rd album I'm Just A Girl will be coming soon as well. Sorry I've been out of the game for some time but I want to finish these. I also plan to do the 2001 Country Hits rankdown at some point between this summer and fall but haven't decided when I want to tackle that one.

Another update! The Disney Movie series has a final extension and then I will be doing the results for that.
I opened the Misc Country Albums rankdown thread and kicked that off with Rebecca Lynn Howard's self-titled debut album. This is an album that I have long considered a favorite and I hope to see many join me in celebrating that album.
The Deana Carter series has moved on to Deana's 3rd studio album I'm Just A Girl. This album features both Deana's final Top 10 & Top 40 radio hits in "There's No Limit" and "I'm Just A Girl". This is a series I hope to do one a month in order to celebrate Deana's career and the music that she gave us!
Next I am now kicking off The Wilkinsons series with their Singles rankdown. These guys have long been a favorite and I am excited to dive into their music with you all. As we get into their albums I do plan to include Amanda Wilkinsons solo album, as well as Amanda and Tyler's two Small Town Pistols albums. I will wrap this series up with an Extras/Album Tracks hybrid rankdown.
Brooks & Dunn has one final rankdown to do and that is their Extras rankdown. I haven't decided if this one will be due at the end of July or in August. I am considering opening up the next Songwriter series based on Phil Vassar, already have the songs mostly figured out with help from austin.
Beyond that I plan to open the 2001 Country Hits rankdown to be due this fall. I may open that sooner than later but still have it due in a few months. I also have the rankdowns for Mark Wills, Collin Raye, and Blackhawk that I would like to do. If anyone would like any of those to come sooner than later let me know. I did add some additional albums I plan to do below that will be part of the Misc Country albums. I do want to continue the Shuffle series eventually but I want some of those other rankdowns to be completed before I restart that series.

It’s been a wild few weeks, and it’s affected my rankdowns quite a bit. I’ll be able to get back in the swing of things in just a few days however!!! The Judds will be closed up and LeAnn results will continue by the end of the week!
Following that, I have a couple artists with series that I need to revive, and will do so. Jake’s Extras will come sometime later this summer, as will Jon’s next album. Over in non-country world, I’ll also be reviving Adele’s series with 25. I do also plan on launching this year’s edition of the Female “Flops” of Country Radio, as well as the latest albums from Carrie Underwood, Maren Morris, and Kacey Musgraves! (Carrie’s album will be the farthest down the line, as it’s still quite new, but Maren’s will come likely by the fall for sure)
So here’s a rough sketch of the future! (NOTE: this might be subject to change)
July: LeAnn Rimes - This Woman (due ASAP: as soon as Twisted Angel is revealed I’m moving on to this album!) The Judds - Why Not Me (LAST CALL; due ASAP)
August: Jake Owen - Extras (due TBA) Jon Pardi - Heartache Medication (due TBA) Adele - 25 (due TBA)
September: Female “Flops” of Country Radio 2021 (due TBA) Maren Morris - Humble Quest (due TBA)
September & Beyond: Kacey Musgraves - star-crossed Carrie Underwood - Denim & Rhinestones

My next three rankdowns have now all been launched, with due dates in September! We’re wrapping up Jake Owen with his extras, while moving along with both Jon Pardi and Adele. Following that, the 2022 edition of the Female “Flops” of Country Radio series (with songs from 2021) will be announced, as we move into the next albums from both The Judds & LeAnn Rimes, who I plan on hosting holiday rankdowns for as well this year (with LeAnn having already been promised for this year). Beyond that, as I mentioned before, I wanna do the latest albums from Maren Morris, Kacey Musgraves and Carrie Underwood. I do also plan on hosting my third annual personal year-end rankdown, which will consist of my 50 favorite songs of 2022. These five rankdowns, however, are all mapped out into 2023, so as to not overload the system all at once!
Here’s where things stand as of now!
September: Jon Pardi - Heartache Medication (due September 10) Adele - 25 (due September 21) Jake Owen Extras (due September 23)
October: Female “Flops” of Country Radio 2021 (due TBA; early October) LeAnn Rimes - I Need You & Whatever We Wanna (due TBA; early to mid October) The Judds - Rockin’ With The Rhythm (due mid October)
November & Beyond (this list stretches into 2023 so don’t panic lol): The Judds - Christmas Time with the Judds LeAnn Rimes - Today Is Christmas & Christmas Extras Maren Morris - Humble Quest Kacey Musgraves - star-crossed Carrie Underwood - Denim & Rhinestones Taylor’s Hot 50 of 2022

Decided to update my plans. I've been struggling to get results up for each results which I think is mainly due to the amount of time it takes to make them and get everything together and the lack of participation in the rankdowns. I definitely know it is partly my fault for delays and not participating much but even when I've tried there hasn't been much, if any, responses. Going forward I will be limiting how much time I spend on graphics for rankdowns by no longer providing history graphs.
I just started the results for Deana Carter's third album and once I finish those results I will immediately open her next album.
Next up is The Wilkinsons Singles Rankdown, which I've delayed one final time. I am really hoping to see a few more dive into this group that I've long been a huge fan of.
Lastly I have the Misc Country Albums thread with the 2nd album, Clay Davidson's debut album, which is also his one and only album. Look forward to seeing what you all think of that album.
Going beyond that I am going to open Brooks & Dunn's Extras soon so we can finally wrap them up. I am also going to open both the 2001 Country Songs rankdown and the Phil Vassar Songwriter rankdown soon.PRESENTING NOW/SOON:Deana Carter - I'm Just A GirlCURRENTLY OPEN:The Wilkinsons - Singles(Due: September 9th)Clay Davidson - Clay Davidson(Due: September 16th)OPENING SOON:Brooks & Dunn - Extras (TBA) Songwriter Series - Phil Vasser(Due: TBA) 2001 Country Hits (Due: TBA) Deana Carter - The Story of My Life(Due: TBA) {TBA FUTURE PLANS} Deana Carter - The Chain(Due: TBA) Deana Carter - Southern Way of Life(Due: TBA) Deana Carter - Extras(Due: TBA)

As I just did the final reminders, I am closing Global Country RD and Hailey Whitters RD soon, now that I am back from my vacation. My new job is starting this week, and depending on how busy it would be, I may open the second version of Grace Potter RD after the completion of those reveals. I also talked to bboat11 and confirmed to include the top 5 of my "2022 Year End Canadian Country RD" in his bigger "2022 Year End RD", like last year (make it the tradition maybe!). Therefore, I am going to open my Canadian Year-End RD around Halloween, so that the reveal would be completed by the end of the year in time for bboat's RD. Since I would not be able to provide much extension for my YE RD, I advise y'all to start working on the list sooner than later, if you're joining this (and I hope many of you will, as this is your opportunity to influence the songs that would be included in the biggest RD representing the year of 2022!)

I just wanted to give an update as to what my plans are going into the new year. That includes wrapping up the Alan Jackson Album Series which will conclude with the the Extras Rankdown sometime in Jan/Feb 2023. Along with that, I had planned on launching The Chicks 2.0 Artist Rankdown at some point, but that is currently up in the air at the moment. Outside of that, I'd like to launch the 1991 Year-End Rankdown here very soon which will culminate in the 1995 Year-End Rankdown. Speaking of... All that to say, 2023 will be my final year of hosting rankdowns which I hope to end on a note with the 1995 Country Year-End Rankdown. It has been a great run of ten+ years here on Pulse, but I think the time has come to hang up my hat. Some of y'all have likely already noticed that I've dialed back some, but I promise this doesn't mean I'll stop participating in rankdowns. Cheers to 2023!

Time to do an update:
I recently opened a few rankdowns to be due in November. Typically I keep November low on Rankdowns due to the Christmas rankdowns that come up but I haven't been doing many for a while and wanted to get a couple done that I had wanted done by now.
First one coming up is Alecia Elliott's I'm Diggin' It due on Nov 4th. This one is coming up soon and my plan is to do a small 15 song Christmas rankdown that will feature songs from various artist that I've included so far and those I plan to include in the Misc Country Albums series that will be due in Dec.
Following that we have Deana Carter's next album The Story of My Life which I have due on Nov 12th. This one I could delay but if I end up doing any delay it will be to January so I'm hoping it doesn't come to that. I really love this album and am excited to dive into this one!
Then we have Brooks & Dunn's Extras Rankdown which will finally see that series come to a close. I had considered continuing this series with Ronnie and Kix's solo albums but have decided that I have enough that I want to do that I am not going to rank those so if anyone is interested in those they will have to host them.
I have 1 other rankdown that I wanted to do for November and that is the next Shuffle rankdown but I am thinking I'll skip November and just launch the Christmas shuffle soon and have that due early December. I also have The Wilkinsons that I am going to launch their next album soon but have it due in January, maybe late December.
Also Carly Pearce's album 29: Written In Stone will launch near the beginning of next year so look forward to that one!
Lastly I plan to launch the next Disney Movie Rankdown very soon to be due sometime next year. So for those that like participating in that one look forward to that!PRESENTING NOW/SOON:CURRENTLY OPEN:Alecia Elliott - I'm Diggin' It(Due: November 4th)Deana Carter - The Story Of My LifeBrooks & Dunn - Extras(Due: November 19th)OPENING SOON:The Wilkinsons - Nothing But Love(Due: January ?)

Just wanna post an update. It seems there are less and less people participating in Country rankdowns and due to that I'm thinking it might be time to hang it up. Maybe I'll feel different in a couple weeks but right now I'm thinking of being done.

Maybe I'll feel different in a couple weeks but right now I'm thinking of being done. I've kinda been wondering if this is coming, as the participant base is just not very dependable anymore, especially since you like to do lots of the more "obscure mainstream" rankdowns. That being said, I do really like all the new discoveries that I make through your various series, and it would be a shame for you to hang it up for good imo! But I could definitely understand if you slow down and dial it back I suspect this is what has been happening with Tim's rankdowns lately too.
I do think there will still be excitement for some rankdowns, like the year-end ones especially. And the New Country Releases series is still doing quite well. So I don't see myself hanging it up yet personally. But I may slow down on the albums again for a couple months to make sure I get back to keeping a consistent schedule for the monthly new releases. (That's why I haven't opened all the Christmas rankdowns for Jamie, Reba, and Terri that some may have been expecting to happen this year...)

Maybe I'll feel different in a couple weeks but right now I'm thinking of being done. I get that for sure. I’m done hosting now for the near future as well. Personally, smaller album rankdowns are the best in terms of me participating. Things have changed and I just don’t have time to listen to a bunch of songs I don’t know.

Time for an update again from me, and this one’s rather important. As you know, much of the rankdowns I had wanted to be doing by now weren’t launched or finished. This is partly because of how busy I am sometimes working to get by. But I also wanted to say that with my Adele and Jon Pardi albums that were completed finally after months of waiting for reveals, I’ve made an important decision about my own rankdown hosting future. I wanted to let you all know—if you hadn’t already, because I had announced this in Random Thoughts a couple months ago—that I’m going to be embarking on a hiatus from Pulse in 2023. I have a serious ambition for myself that I want to have my debut novel fully written, edited, and maybe even ready for a literary agent by the end of the year. I’ve had enough of this habit of mine where I get really excited about it only to never follow through. Maybe it’s a habit I had because I never thought I was good enough for it, or because I didn’t think I’d see it anyway, but this is a dream I have had my entire life. And I can’t multitask working towards my creative writing career and working for that to make my life financially stable and secure with Pulse. In other words, consider this me also hanging it up…but not forever.So with that said, I have updated the deadline for the current LeAnn Rimes albums, I Need You & Whatever We Wanna. They will be due on January 20, with (hopefully) no extensions. I do also plan on completing The Judds’ album series (aside from the Christmas album, which I might get back to depending on where I’m at) in quick succession beginning in January. All other planned rankdowns (except for one, detailed below) will be pushed aside indefinitely. I still want to host them, but they will simply have to wait. The final rankdown (for now) will be two compilations of all winners/runner-ups of my own rankdowns. It’s basically the Best/Revenge of the Best series from bboat11 , but only of the rankdowns I hosted. It’s going to be called Best of the Best/Revenge of the Best (Taylor’s Version). I thought it would be cool to end on a nostalgic note like that and I really hope that this one sees an exceptional turnout, as this rankdown will be the last you see of me in 2023 before fully enclosing myself in “the writing cave.” This rankdown will also be launched in January.I’ll try to log on occasionally and see what rankdowns are happening at the moment and participate in them, especially tim ’s rankdowns as I want him to get as much support and participation for his final rankdowns as well. Other than that, I’ll be out of the Pulse limelight until I have a book written. <3

I think I'm still going to host some rankdowns but I'm gonna approach them a lot different. I'm gonna take some time and evaluate which ones are worth doing and which ones are not. I'd like to get the 2001 Country Songs rankdown done finally, as well as keep the Songwriter and Shuffle series going. I think the Misc Country Albums series is gonna change the most. There are some albums I really wanted to do but after both Clay Davidson and Alecia Elliott barely had anyone participate in them I'm thinking there isn't the support for that series at all.
That said the Shuffle series hasn't been super successful this month or the previous month so maybe that one should go also. I really want to do these rankdowns but the lack of participation both in lists I receive for them as well as people commenting on them is so low and discouraging. I'm very indecisive right now but I think I can say for sure things will be difference once I finally decide how I want to proceed.

The final rankdown (for now) will be two compilations of all winners/runner-ups of my own rankdowns. It’s basically the Best/Revenge of the Best series from bboat11 , but only of the rankdowns I hosted. It’s going to be called Best of the Best/Revenge of the Best (Taylor’s Version). I thought it would be cool to end on a nostalgic note like that and I really hope that this one sees an exceptional turnout, as this rankdown will be the last you see of me in 2023 before fully enclosing myself in “the writing cave.” This rankdown will also be launched in January. So…I have compiled a total list of 39 songs for this final rankdown. To make it an even 40, I’ve decided to add one more larger rankdown to my plans, in order to include the song that wins it. That rankdown is my Top 50 of 2022, the third annual such rankdown of mine. I’m working on getting that list put together, and then I’ll be launching it as soon as possible. :)
