Legit surprised by "Days Go By" still being in and reaching the Top 5. The other 4 make total sense though. I'm not surprised! I think these five are flawless. I will predict "Days Go By" to be #5 though. My guess: #5 - Days Go By #4 - Better Life #3 - Stupid Boy #2 - Somebody Like You #1 - You'll Think Of Me

5. Days Go By 4. You'll Think Of Me 3. Better Life 2. Stupid Boy 1. Somebody Like You
Such a high quality top 5! "Days Go By" is my pick to leave first just because people talk about it like it is one of his more polarizing songs (I just don't get why though, other than overplay...), and "You'll Think of Me" is my next pick to leave just because I have always been one of its more vocal critics... Lol
After that, I would be thrilled to see any of "Stupid Boy", "Better Life", and "Somebody Like You" take the crown! All 3 songs are 10/10 for me! "Stupid Boy" may win just because of overplay factoring against "Better Life" and "Somebody Like You", but I think I would be most happy with "Somebody Like You" winning because it is such a career-defining song for Keith.

Here's some fun facts about our top 5: - All but one of these songs were #1 hits on the country airplay charts.
- Every song but one of them in our top five is somebody's #1, and all but one of those (the latter) have multiple #1s (i.e. two or more posters have it as their #1 song). Note that my #1 hasn't been eliminated yet, but it will soon...
- Every song but one of them (the same one as above) actually spent time as the #1 song of the rankdown during the submissions period, but only one of those spent the most time as the #1.
- The #1 song of this rankdown almost had no #1 placements until the latter half of the submissions period.
- The #5 and #1 songs in this rankdown have the same number of #1 placements.
Will unveil the top three tonight and do an album showcase (just for the heck of it) and wrap up this rankdown on Friday.

I would be legitimately shocked if "Days Go By" isn't #5. It's good but it's not anything memorable if you ask me and is never among the songs people bring up as Keith's best. It was very radio friendly however and was a good choice for a lead single.
I'm pulling for "Better Life" to come out on top but that one I see ending up at #3 or #4. I'm guessing the top two are "Somebody Like You" and "You'll Think Of Me."

I mean...the intro to that song talks about driving around, which is what Keith is doing at the start of "Days Go By"? If it's not that, I've got nothing!

Iβm hoping for βBetter Lifeβ but I think it will be βStupid Boyβ that misses the top 3.

Omg yes my top 3 is THE top 3!!! OMG congrats, that's awesome! I still have my 2, 3, and... 34 PLEASE let my 34 be the one to miss the top 2!!! Edit: I guess I can't complain because I got a perfect ranking for "Better Life", but I am still disappointed that it is out already. If my #34 had left instead, I would have had my 2, 3, and 4 in the top 3, which is still about as good as anyone could hope for!

I think you have better taste than that. You never know! You'll get to discover the horrible side of my taste in the 2013 country rankdown when I won't have "Boys Round Here" or "That's My Kind of Night" in my bottom 10You're almost 3x Platinum (idk why I noticed but the post count flew into my eyes) so congrats!

Here's the top 3:
Somebody Like You You'll Think of Me Stupid Boy
Which one of these do you think will win?
I'll do the remaining album showcases tomorrow night or this weekend.

Not crazy about anything that's left, but "Somebody Like You" is definitely the best of the 3 imo.

I have my 1, 2 and 12 left. Hoping for my 12 to be 3 but I'm good either way as all three songs are amazing. Also I don't understand how anyone could have any of these 3 songs below their top 20 since they are definitive Keith Urban.

My 7, 15 and 23 remain. Looking at my list I was a little surprised that I ranked my last two as low as I did. Then again, I like nearly every single from Keith so this was one of those cases where even a #23 ranked song was one I liked a lot. I would be shocked is Somebody Like You didn't win. Stupid Boy has already made it farther than I expected (I guess I didn't realize how well-liked it is), I would actually be thrilled if it won, but I'm not expecting that at all.
