I'm pleasantly surprised this did as well as it did. It actually beat ANL's '09 performance. Whether it deserved to is neither here nor there. The point is that it did. Wow, "Already Over" went top five, most impressive. The wonders that being an Alt crossover can do for a song.

I'm here for Red taking it all, but I doubt he they do.

#5 is a song that spent the last 13 lists in the top 10 (aka all of them but the first). This got me happy at first, because this was a consistent top 3 contender for the first half of the lists, but then it tumbled hard and almost fell out of the top 10 entirely. Luckily, it rebounded to get here, re-entering the top 5 with the very last submission.
We lose EIGHT top 10s, tied for the second-most in the rankdown. Two more top 20s leave, and this only has two bottom 50s - but they will be the ones that gather your full attention.

Doc and Dm, Part II: This Time It's Personal. It's all over for Red. This also makes @cagedjuggalo the first person to lose his entire top 10. This truly is Doc's revenge, because who would have predicted it wasn't him? 5

I would say that I can't wait for "Breathe Into Me" to do similarly well in the 2007 RD, but who am I kidding? It has the audacity to have gasp rough vocals!
Oh well, ecstatic to see this go top five, especially against some tough competition.

The next three songs are awfully close. This finished a mere one point behind #3, and three points behind #2. There are seven top 10s, and four of them are top 5s. Again, no one hated this song, but it does have two bottom 50 rankings. None of them are bottom 40. Jesus, I've been saying that a lot tonight.

I wanted this to beat "The Pretender" just for the sole fact that it wouldn't win.
It's going to win again isn't it.

Whoa!
Top 3 are all in my top ten, which I can't say I was expecting at the start of the night. Maybe two of them, but not all three. I thought this was a shoo-in for another top three appearance, though I did think "Hammerhead" would beat it, anyway.

#3 was the number-one song for most of the rankdown. It spent eight ballots at the top spot, dueling on-and-off with one of the top 2 before taking hold of it for a long stretch. We lose a rankdown-high three #1s, as well as two other top 5 rankings and three other top 10 rankings. Only three people ranked this below the top 20, two of them being bottom 50s and one of them being our final remaining bottom 50 of the game. It's also dangerously close to a bottom 25. That bottom 25 is crazi's, the last ranking I received, the one that sent this from #1 to #3. So yeah, blame him. I'm sure a lot of you will be mad.

It's "Hammerhead", and it's about to finish #3 again.
At least both of the remaining songs are in my top ten this time, instead of just one, so that will soften the blow.

Alternatively, praise him for tanking such a predictable winner. I don't know. Do what you want. 3

Yay my #1 didn't win!
It's my favorite song here but I'm sick of the Foos winning every time. (The irony, yes I know)
