bboat11 , there are two more albums that have only one song left; I'll let you figure out what they are... @walker9 , the highest SD will be coming up soon... Oh yeah, the other one is Cosmic Hallelujah! I wasn't even thinking about the latter half of his career, 'cause it feels like we're just gonna keep having a '90s purge I'd rather lose "Setting The World On Fire" than "She's Got It All", but I'm gonna still predict that SGIA will go next.

That’s Why I’m Here completely got robbed. That is an absolute gem of a song. One of the most powerful country songs I’ve heard.

The music video for "Who You'd Be Today" is a total tearjerker. That song for some reason reminds me how thankful I am to have all my friends and family with me as I could never imagine a close high school friends dying. That'd be so hard on me.

my top 2 was out back to back. I just am beyond disappointed to see them both gone. "Who You'd Be Today" is one of my all time favorite songs and it hits VERY close to home. It's the question I ask about my brother so this is gone too early. Beyond disappointed, might just peace out on the rest of the results tbh

"Who You'd Be Today" is an incredible song. I was surprised that it ended up missing my top 20, because this has always been one of my favorites from Kenny! The emotions in this song are SO real. I wish the superstars of today would release songs like this that actually matter.

Also, what's with all the people losing their top 2 back-to-back??!?! Backwoods Barbie and Castle tonight, and the same thing happened to me just outside of the top 20 (Still haven't forgiven y'all for that). That's an unusually high percentage for that to occur.

That's Why I'm Here is by far his best songs and I really don't understand people who put it in the bottom half of they rankings. You Had Me From Hello was also eliminated about 15 songs to early but I'm not even going to complain about it because at this point it's clear that at best some mediocre song is going to win.

...and here's your top 15!
She's Got it All How Forever Feels What I Need to Do Don't Happen Twice Young The Good Stuff There Goes My Life I Go Back Anything but Mine Never Wanted Nothing More Don't Blink Better as a Memory Somewhere with You You and Tequila (feat. Grace Potter) Setting the World on Fire (feat. P!nk)
What do you think will be the five songs to miss the top 10?

Sorry for the delay guys; had an exhausting weekend and needed to get my mind straight (sleep also wasn't kind to me), but I will go back to unveiling stuff tonight, I promise!
Anybody wanna guess what's coming with the hints I posted? Like I did in the beginning of results, they are in no particular order. In fact, I'm feeling generous and I'll give y'all the order my hints are posted: 14 - 11 - 15 - 13 - 12.

This song also marks the second single eliminated from Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates since the departure of "Shiftwork" in the bottom five. How much further can the remaining two singles go ("Don't Blink" and "Better as a Memory")? someguy's #2 is gone at this point, along with two top fives and an additional top 10; hopefully we'll see more lukewarm rankings for these upcoming songs and very few bottom tens or bottom fives. Over time, I've found this to be a song that I'm purely indifferent to; I liked it when it was out, but now that time has passed, I've found better things...

Ladies and gents, I introduce to you the most polarizing Kenny Chesney songs according to Pulse!! 14. What I Need to Dofrom Everywhere We GoTotal Points: 466 Average Rank: 22.19048 Standard Deviation: 19.53873 ( Highest!) Billboard Hot Country Songs Peak: 8 Billboard Hot 100 Peak: 56 Ranks by order of submission:Ranks in ascending order:jhomes87 - 2 castleoblivion26 - 3 Kanenrá:ke - 4 Cody Wants Out... - 5 countrymusicjunkie - 6 sabre14 - 6 austin - 7 Kentucky25 - 7 tim - 8 gardyfan - 8 BlueShades874 - 13 BackwoodsBarbie - 16 zaclord 🌈 - 21 fearlessarrow - 30 bboat11 - 33 Sambalada - 46 someguy - 47 rgreen0625 - 47 CoJoFan - 49 carriekins - 53 @adam1995 - 55 Host's Commentary: OUCH! This has got to be one of the most painful eliminations so far as we lose a total of ten top 10s, including four top fives, and two more top 20s. A couple of bottom tens cause this song to miss the top 10 by a considerable margin. There was actually no need to listen to "Love Will Turn You Around" to understand what was coming here; the opening line of the chorus 'what I need to do is turn this car around' helps the narrator realize what he really needs to do is turn around and come back to her with love as the motivation for doing so. When I was younger, I didn't really care for this, but now that I've grown up (for the most part ), I've grown to appreciate it...a lot. Definitely one of his more overlooked cuts.

God y’all just couldn’t let prime 90s-early 00s Kenny be. The top 25 has been brutal.

My entire Top 5 is now gone. I still have 5 songs left in my Top 10 too, 6-10 are all still in. Watch those go in the next few spots.

"What I Need to Do" is such an underrated song. I started following Kenny in the early 00s so I didn't hear this song until he included a live version on the deluxe edition of When The Sun Goes Down but I am glad he did because the song (and that version in particular) are too good to miss!

I can't believe "What I Need To Do" was so polarizing. I never expected it to be ranked so low by so many people.

I'm really sad about "Never Wanted Nothing More" failing to make the top 10, I thought it had a really good shot at the top 10 :'(

I’m not very good at guessing hints...but could one of them be “Setting the World On Fire?” Specially I’m referencing the line Wrote I love you in lipstick on the mirror in connection with the image of #bringbackourgirls on the mirror.
edit: “Back Seat Driver” could also be hinting at “Better as a Memory.”

Wow at so many people ranking "What I Need To Do" so low. This is perhaps the most surprised I've been in a long time. I think WINTD is incredible, and extremely underrated. The piano and the traditional country instrumentation, plus the pure heartbreak in Kenny's voice make that song one of my all-time favorite songs.

I didn't know "What I Need To Do" prior to this rankdown, but I did love it on first listen. It didn't make my top 20 since all of those songs I've loved for much much longer, but I did really appreciate it and have added it to my classic country playlist. Definitely enjoyed it but there are so many songs of his I love that it was hard to rank it any higher

Lots of high votes helped this song go a long way, including but not limited to five top 10s and six top 20s. Sadly, two bottom tens held this back a tad, with one of them keeping it out of the top 10 throughout the latter part of submissions. We say goodbye to another studio album with this next song, along with a single top 3...

I have always loved "How Forever Feels", but for some reason it kept getting shoved lower for me when I was ranking. So it ended up missing my top 20. This is still one of my favorite Kenny songs though! Glad it made it so far!
