Clues for #21... -The artist has appeared in several films and television episodes throughout their career. -Like Billy Joel, this artist is also responsible for an entire film's soundtrack. -We will lose six top ten ranks including two top fives, but still no #1s. -Eight more bottom five losses with two #25s. -The 10th lowest standard deviation. -At one point, this song was #4 in the rankdown. |

BTW, the film in question for the Billy Joel clue is one of my all time favorite Disney movies, Oliver & Company.

This is the worst I've ever done in a rankdown. I have all 3 songs there were already eliminated in my top 10 and that's because all 3 are awesome.
I hope Metallica is next one to be eliminated.
Edit: Yay!!

This will be our final reveal of the night. Clues for #20... -We finally lose a #1 rank... in fact we lost THREE! -Three other users will lose a top ten. -Seven bottom five ranks will go including a #25. -Unsurprisingly with those stats, it's the sixth highest standard deviation. -At one point, the song was #14 in the rankdown. -This did not chart anywhere until the digital age. |

My Number 1 is Next. That's the only explanation I can give, unless I SOMEHOW survive the Trio Purge

I love the Junior Vasquez remixes of this from 1997. Junior got to remix "Your Song" the year before and he got the parts to do "Rocket Man" too. He went on to remix "Original Sin" in the 2000s.

Literally shocked that Janis was the second song out. I also liked Elton's alright, but the rest of the reveals I'm fine with, especially seeing Metallica leave in the bottom five.  |

This is my first time seeing the results. Not surprised at seeing Bob Dylan in last place, if I were judging based on vocals, he'd be last, but I liked the song's instrumental Janis Joplin's singing voice isn't very pleasing either, but the song doesn't even have a good beat I don't get why Billy Joel and Elton John are so low. Perhaps people think they're just really boring. Not super surprised but boooooooo at Metallica being gone already  So my bottom three are still here. As well as 4 out of my bottom 5. I would say I'm surprised that my #25 is still here, but it's Pulse, so I shouldn't be  And #20 sounds like Stairway to Heaven to me |

Clues for #18... -This next song was actually tied with "Material Girl." For a tie breaker, the song with the lowest standard deviation won. -Speaking of which, this was the fifth highest standard deviation. -Nine top ten ranks will leave next with three top fives. -Seven bottom fives will be leaving including a #25. -This song was actually as low as #23 in the rankdown. -One of the top five rankings is an urban poster and the other two are country posters. |

 Lyrics of "Wish You Were Here" are one of the best lyrics ever written! "How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year"
And the guitar intro is simply amazing. This song is a True Classic. |

I guess this list is showing just how much I love classic rock. I'd much rather have Stairway to Heaven gone before Wish You Were Here. But at least Material Girl is gone

Are you kidding me? Wish You Were Here isn't close to the top 10? Well, I shouldn't be surprised but I'm still disappointed  |

I had a feeling my ranking would be more controversial. But #18 is a good place for it.

I knew someone would say this : p Couldn't find the time to do this sadly but I'm still following. Doesn't seem like my list would've boosted Wish You Were Here anyways. |

I knew someone would say this : p Couldn't find the time to do this sadly but I'm still following. Doesn't seem like my list would've boosted Wish You Were Here anyways. Depending on what your rankings would've been, it could have or could not have. For example, if you had ranked it #1, its score would have risen to 15 instead of 15.66666667, which right now would bump it up to #17, assuming your ranks wouldn't have also bumped up any of the songs below it or knocked down any below it. But I totally get not having time for it. Ugh, there's like two handfuls of rankdowns I've missed due to time constraints. Most recently, Natasha Bedingfield and the Madness rankdowns. |

This will be the final reveal of the day... Clues for #15... -God, this was everywhere during the rankdown! Was as low as #25 and as high as #10! -It's the eighth highest standard deviation. -We will lose 11 top ten ranks, the most so far, with four top fives including a #1. -Five bottom fives will leave as well. -One of the most iconic guitar riffs in history. -Nearly 30 years after its release, it came under fire for potential copyright issues. |
