This is the first time that my #1 has ever won in an Alt rankdown. So incredibly happy right now.
Anyways...I'm currently calculating member closeness stats, which should be up in about 20 minutes. I'll post the thread for the 2008 Alt rankdown as soon as I'm done with that.

YESYESYES Wow it won by a bunch too! If I had partook Feel Good Drag would've been #2, which would have been super nice, but I still can't object to these results. you should have submitted!

What is so great about Panic Switch? The thing that I like about it so much is that its not "Sex on Fire"

What is so great about Panic Switch? The amazing bassline, the fuzziness of the instrumental, the vocals, and the overall build of the song is so intense and visceral that it has never burned on me after hundreds and hundreds of plays. Probably one of my Top 10 favorite songs of all time.

I know, life got in the way but I plan on submitting for 2008 alt and other alt rankdowns for the immediate future! Although if I somehow miss 2008 alt and you want to partake in a rankdown I was in as well, there's always my personal rankdown ;)

Rolling in the deep was MtsCharts 100 in 2011 rankdown and it won.
Counting stars was born in 1989s last in OneRepublic Rankdown and it won.
Believe that aeros last place won in lorde album rankdown.
Those are only last place ranks wins I think.

A lot of people say he sounds like Billy Corgan from Smashing Pumpkins and I'm not a huge fan of Corgan's voice most of the time so in that way I kind of get it lol

And that...is finally that. Wow, this was a roller coaster ride for me. I will be the first to admit that I did not have my best rankdown as a host, but, even during the most trying times, I still enjoyed hosting, and I still enjoyed having you all along for the ride. You were willing to put up with my mistakes and, most importantly, told me exactly what mistakes I had made, so I knew when to fix them. I'm hosting the other 2009 rankdown for the Active chart, so if you want to see what happens when I don't make mistakes (or, at the very least, don't make as many mistakes, because I will do everything possible to make sure that doesn't happen again), feel free to check out that rankdown! I hear it has some really good songs in it, too. hums the chorus of "A Looking in View" ( )
But seriously, thanks for following along on this crazy journey, thanks to those of you who submitted and/or watched, thanks to rowellfarm490 for his closeness rankings (and his tips, which I will value, trust me), and, one more time, congratulations to Silversun Pickups for finally winning one of these year-end rankdowns.
Okay, peacebone ...batter up!

10. Savior - Rise AgainstI'll be totally honest here. This song has won one too many of these rankdowns. Nothing against the song, but enough is enough. I purposely ranked it lower than I normally would. I can almost bet my life a lot of you did too. Still a classic in my book tho. #10 is nothing to frown at either. 9. Uprising - MuseI also purposely kept this one out of my top 10, but To be honest it wasn't so hard when I have Nickelback and Shinedown songs to play with. Well the top 2 favorites are out, so we will have a great surprise at #1. 8. Help I'm Alive - MetricI thought I would be one of the higher rankers of this song? Oh well, congrats on it's top 10 showing. I love the "beating like A hammer" part. 7. New Divide - Linkin ParkThis is what happens when I decide to rank LP in the top 25 instead of the bottom 5. They finally get top 10 action. I'm glad its with this song and not other ones. There are only 2 more LP songs that I will be this exited about. 6. You're Gonna Go Far, Kid - The Offspring"Dance FUCKER Dance" is the best line in an Offspring song. 'nuff said. 5. Decode - ParamoreOh this song. This is probably one of my least favorite Paramore songs. It just never struck me as very melodic. Paramore or not, this is me being consistent, and nothing more. 4. Feel Good Drag - Anberlin Awesome song. Just outside my top 30 of that year. 3. Kids - MGMTI now have a new favorite from this band called "Little Dark Age", but this was one hell of a synthpop number when it was out. That back round synth line would make Trans - X proud. 2. Sex on Fire - Kings of LeonFuck! So close. I wanted this one to win so bad, just because of the songs' title. This really is my favorite KOL song. 1. Panic Switch - Silversun PickupsI really didn't want this song to win. rainie. I didn't tank it. I just don't like it. This time; The dark vibe, something I usually dig in music, didn't work for me. my #83 song winning this is pretty sad.

Anyway, great job for Red giving us the 2009 year end Alternative chart journey. Looking forward to the next Active rankdown. What about the stats. Did I get my coveted last place rank or what. ;)
