#19 takes out a staple in these retro rankdowns. Nobody loses a bottom 20 ranking, while ten people lose top 50 rankings, five people lose top 25 rankings, four people lose top tens, and two people lose top fives. Ultimately, it was the rankings below the top 40 (all five of them) that doomed this song in the end. Shame, because I'm one of the posters losing a top ten here.

Break. Right after Breakdown. How appropriate.

Spellbound? or So Long, Good Bye? Really, Green? You think I'd rank "Break" top ten? :kii:
Don't worry, Leo...I'm not happy about this one, either.19

I really liked this one when I listened to the playlist. Had I submitted, it likely would've been in my top 5.

oh I didn't see that part.
I think me and Leo have shared 2 top 10s so far... that's alarming

Ready for more top ten losses? #18 has three of them, and two of those are top five rankings. Three other posters ranked this song in their top 25, and ten total people ranked this in their top 50s. What brought this song down were the two relatively low rankings at the bottom. One poster, in particular, is about to be happy...and one poster is about to be angry, because they're about to lose back-to-back top tens.

Must be a band with just one song in this list. I guess it's either Mastodon or Breaking Benjamin.

Careless Whisper. It's gotta be that. Kind of felt dirty ranking this top 40, honestly...but the song itself that this is a cover of is a classic, right?

Careless Whisper Seether
Year-End Placing: #24 Chart Peak: #4 Chart Weeks: 2 Is this the new "Get on Your Boots"? I know, right? Spent two weeks at #4 and then suddenly vanished. Crazy run, that... Another of the last "first song by a band with multiple songs in this rankdown" reveals is coming up at #17, and it's noteworthy for one reason in particular: It's the first song to cross the 900 point mark! No one loses a bottom 20 ranking, and all but two posters ranked this song in their top 50 40, with five of those rankings being top 25 rankings, and one of those rankings being a top ten ranking. This song blew my expectations out of the water, honestly.

Ready for one of the two final "first song from a band with multiple songs in this rankdown" reveals at #16? Two people ranked this song pretty low, which is why it's not higher than this. They are also outliers, as everyone else ranked this song in their top 40, seven posters ranked this song in their top 25, and two posters ranked this song in their top ten, with one of them being a top five ranking. This rankdown doesn't get any easier...

What the fuck is wrong with this? This hasn't done well in a single rankdown and it's great. Likely would have been my #1 for this year.

#15 surprised me by making it this far, but when you don't get a single bottom 40 ranking, you're probably going to wind up pretty high in one of these, especially if you get the support this song got: Nine top 40 rankings, seven top 25 rankings, three top ten rankings, and even a top five. Good on this song, I suppose.

Either Oblivion or Dead Memories (lol I keep guessing Dead Memories, it's doing better than I expected)
