WTF?! Why would anyone rank "Better" in the bottom 10? That song is literally hook after hook after hook. It's one of the most creative songs on this list honestly. It should have been a major hit back in the day. I'm not afraid to call Axl out on his bulls**t, but "Better" is great. You guys let me down big time. The vocals in the bridge are annoying. (specifically at 2:51 to 3:10) Although I already said before that I underranked it. I ranked "Chinese Democracy" much higher. (that one is in my top 50)

Ah, there's Arma...geddon. Was wondering where that one was, surprised it wasn't even a moderate hit. Would've easily placed in my top 20 here.

You guys must really hate Tantric? That's a damn shame, I'm sure Down & Out will score high with me in the future.
Saving Abel is one of the few bands that have seen my top and bottom ten.

"Ain't No Rest for the Wicked" is trash. That's why it landed so low.

70. Mind Control - TantricThis song deserved better. I admit to not recalling anything else from this band. I like this song for two reasons. lead singer did his best Scott Stapp impression. Vocaliwise and image wise, and also the guitars really had Velvet Revolver, groove. Now that I think of it, I could have upgraded it to Top 40 status, for those same reasons. 69. Oh Yeah - ChickenfootLove me some chicken foot, but this song wasn't fried enough. These musicians can do better. 68. Overcome - CreedI downgraded it a bit. Still a great song tho. The one I really wanted was "Rain" that was one hell of a melodic rock song. 67. Far from Over - Rev TheoryRanking a song in the 80's for meant, that it was borderline decent. I'm it's lowest poster and it's because it needed more hair metal groove. 66. I Get Off - HalestormFemale sleazerock of the best kind. I just couldn't put it in the top 10 this time, because I felt more connection to Hinder's "Up All Night". 65. Still in the Dark - Aranda This is a decent song. Nowhere as fierce as the one we saw earlier. I like this song because it gave me slight Tesla vibes. The hair band, not the car company. :kii: 64. Big Jack - AC/DCThe other AC/Dc song better stay here way longer. That's all I'm saying. 63. Contagious - Trapt One of their best songs. Just missed my top 40, because of the hard competition this year offered. The ones I really love, from Trapt, will show up in later rankdowns 62. This Is It - StaindThis was pretty cool. The best part was the guitar intro. this is an Alternative band that better fits the post grunge tag. *taking a break here just to make a guess that Green Baron isn't a big fan of "Burn It Down To The Ground". (insert 20 quotes implying he wants "Burn It Down To The Ground out) 61. 18 Days - Saving AbelThis is some of the best melodic rock on this list. Almost borderline AOR. That would be 80's style like Night Ranger, except with a bit of Southern vibe to it. 5 Stars to Lordef†ones for steppin up and putting it in his top 10. 60. Champagne - CavoHere is another song I really love. man this year was bursting with epic music. Gotta love that song writing too. Champagne with cocaine is awesome. Not that I'm condoning drug use mind you. ;) 59. Please Come In - Black Stone CherryThis is one of their best songs. I would say between this one and the Marijunana song. Not that I'm condoning drug use, but its an awesome song. 58. 100 in a 55 - Pop EvilAnother one I absolutely love. This list was hard as dick to rank. This one gave me those Poison vibes I so long for now adays. 57. Better - Guns N RosesI'll say it now. I loved GnR when they broke out into the scene. "Welcome To The Jungle" and "Sweet Child O Mine" rocked my world ,but the album they released this particular year was bullshit. I don't even know what sound they were going for, but it sure wasn't hair metal. This song was a tad "Better" than that Chinese Democracy bull that I wish would show up as bad as Green Baron wants Nickelback to show up. 56. Ain't No Rest for the Wicked - Cage the ElephantThank you. This was horrid "hobo grunge rock" meaning lazy vocals, lazy guitar playing. Just a travesty in every sense of the word.

apparently all of the good active songs are extras Right you are. At least for tonight you are. Anyway, Red must have posted these three with me in mind. Thank you friend. White Trash Circus - Motley Crue Loved it Loved it Loved it! Let's get serious, because if this song had appeared on this list, I would have lost a top 15 song really fucking early. This band was one of the early pioneers of "Sleaze Rock" what was later renamed "Cockrock". These and, Ratt really knew Rock n Groove Loaded and Alone - Hinder Wonderful. Another extra posted just for me. I don't notice many members praise their favorite songs as much as I do , but that's just a testament of how much I love music. I could write a short paragraph of how epic this song is, but I'll keep it to one aspect. You could hear the Hair Metal vibe all over this song's guitars. This song would have been in my top 5 in this rankdown. True fact: I charted no less than 6 tracks of this amazing hard Rock album. This was a top 3 hit for me. Arma-Goddamn-Motherf*ckin-Geddon - Marilyn MansonAnother one I went head over heels for. You really need to hear the uncensored version of the song to get the full appeal here. This radio clean version is bullshit, but the song's music is still "Arma-Goddamn-Motherf*ckin-Geddon" EPIC!

Want a preview for tonight's update? I have such sights to show you...
TONIGHT - This is a big update for a couple of reasons, but none moreso than this: We will see the highest standard deviation get revealed, as well as two more top ten highest SDs. - Not much exciting things going on in terms of lowest standard deviations, admittedly, but there's one or two low ones in this group of songs. - Another update, another one without a #1 loss. - Now, bottom ten losses? We'll definitely have those. As with last night, at least one person will clear their bottom ten tonight. - And, just to end things on a tense note, as you know, seven posters have yet to lose a top ten. Three of those seven posters will lose their first top ten...and at least one of you will lose multiple top tens.

We start tonight's update with #55 and another first reveal for a band with multiple songs in this rankdown. We do see a bottom ten loss here, while eight posters lose a top 50 ranking, though only one top 25 ranking--oh, wait, sorry, a top ten ranking. AND it's someone who has already lost a top ten.

#54 sees another reveal where it clears a band's songs in this rankdown, and it has a familiar bottom ten ranker. Six people ranked this song in their top 50, with only one top 25 ranking (and a couple close to that). Only two people ranked this below 70, which is why this song wound up being a little higher than I thought it might be.

Oh hey, look, #53 is another reveal where a band loses all of their songs in this rankdown. This one...this one, I actually thought it would make the top 50, at the very least. I'm kind of baffled that it didn't. We do see one poster lose a bottom ten, while eight more people will lose a top 50 ranking, one losing a top 25 ranking...a ranking that is mighty close to a top ten ranking. AND this person has already lost big tonight, so...

^^Exactly I dunno why people are so eager to get BITTG out this early. It's not amazing or anything but I actually think it's a pretty solid song especially by Nickelback standards.

#52 is also a song that I thought might make the top 50 and it just...didn't. It wasn't THAT far off, though. Nobody loses a bottom ten here (though one person gets close), while just four top 50 rankings are lost...though two are top 25 rankings. SEVEN people ranked this song in the 51-65 range, and that, ultimately, is what doomed this song to the #52 spot.
