Honestly I'm shocked this song was not able to generate more support. This song is catchy, and Big & Rich do a good job with it. Plus I know the Tim McGraw version a couple years ago was fairly well-loved! Alas, this becomes the first song we have seen for awhile to not have any top 10 placements. It is also castleoblivion26 's #110, so there are definitely some people who are glad to see it leaving. Also a random tidbit, with this elimination, "Craving You" is the last remaining song where the title starts with a C! I hope that after next reveal all songs that starts with C will be eliminated. I'm sorry you didn't get your wish. But wait a minute, this outcome was probably even better for you!

Three yawn-worthy songs out in a row.
"California" was a great song when Tim McGraw did it but when Big & Rich re-recorded it for themselves solo they managed to suck all the fun and enjoyment out of the original and making it mind-numbingly boring like most of their music these days.

With "California" it is just the opposite for me lol. I think Tim McGraw's is atrocious but there's something about B&R's that I love. It almost sounds like an entirely different song to me.
I'm sick af but want to catch up on the rest later.

I don't care about Unforgettable either way, but you guys had better not do Marry Me dirty in next year's rankdown.

finally "California" is out. Used to really like Big & Rich but over the last decade they have easily made me dislike them more and more, and I should specify that it is specifically John Rich that I do not like. Won't really go into that too much but yeah glad it is out and outside of a few of their early songs that I love I will probably never give anything new from them much of a chance because of it.
"Body Like A Back Road" is definitely a terribly written song but is a fun enough song to listen to. It was also a lot of fun in concert last year which helped me like it a little more than I did. Granted I definitely overranked it a little and am not upset to see it out one bit.
"There's A Girl" is boring, annoying and stupid. Glad it is out, I do not like it one bit.
Nothing else that was eliminated is worth talking about, they are all forgettable.

Hmm don't get the hate for "There's a Girl." Tim McGraw's version of "California" is miles better, so that's why I rank the B&R version low. "Unforgettable" is two letters away from being perfectly titled. Glad to see it gone.

Awww, I actually thought, that besides Star of the Show, he was winning people's hearts, even if a little more than usual. Oh well, my placing seems just fine. But I admit, as great as I think it is, the song is kinda forgettable lol

No one commented on Somebody Else Will? Even though it is a non-event, I like the guitar solo here. Need a better singer to sing this song though...

I’m not really mad about any of these eliminations except GYMAM. That is a great song and proof that even the shïttiest artists are capable of making a great song. I think the general disdain for FGL is what won out.

Edit: I definitely wish I had cut this song from the rankdown though. This is such an old song... Lol it HAS to be from 2016....

I think Chris Young's placement in this rankdown is very telling... People have talked for years about getting fed up with his latest vanilla and mainstream-sounding songs, and yet he has always continued to be an artist who places close to the top 20 every time. Well, not this year! This year Pulse collectively seems to have decided to stop considering him among the best of the best, at least as long as he releases songs like this.
"Sober Saturday Night" remains in the rankdown, which made the top 10 in the 2016 Country Rankdown. Stay tuned to see if it can make it as high this year!!

"Sober Saturday Night" is a great song, "Losing Sleep" is not. I wish he was still releasing albums like his first few albums.

Aw, I loved this one! His voice was nice and I liked how the song felt happy yet the song was laid-back. Sad to see this go.

The "me" rhymes in chorus of All On Me annoyed me. I am also scared when listen to the bridge of that song because it is so odd.

I actually think "Make You Mine" is catchy as heck... Lol I fail to understand why some people hate it so much. It is very unique, but almost gives me a mountain music/bluegrass vibe. Let me just copy and paste what I said in the 2016 rankdown about this song Fair warning I am going to rant hard for a minute because of my extreme loathing of this song - "Make You Mine" is horrendous and belongs nowhere near country music. It honestly is the most non-country sounding song I have heard in a long time. I'm not here for this Avicii + Mumford & Sons mess. Throwing in some banjo and over-exaggerated twangy vocals over a pop beat does not make a song country or folk. This is a pure pop song trying to pretend it is something else. I get that this is something that happens too often now in country music, but this one really stands out to me and upsets me the most lol. Their vocals are hideous and the melody/instrumentation/production absolutely sucks. One of my most hated songs currently. I could get over the fact that it isn't at all country if I liked the song, but this song epitomizes the style of music I absolutely detest. High Valley are straight across the board horrible for me and I think "She's With Me" is pretty much equally as awful as "Make You Mine" is, although I guess if I was forced to listen to one at gunpoint it would be SWM. But still, I can't stand anything about these guys and their music and I just really want them to go away.

Edit: I definitely wish I had cut this song from the rankdown though. This is such an old song... Lol it HAS to be from 2016.... I own their 2014 album County Line and it was released only in their home country of Canada. So, the fact they included both "Make You Mine" and "She's With Me" on their 2016 U.S. major label debut was annoying as a fan. I still need to get around to ordering the Canadian edition of Dear Life so I don't have to hear those two songs twice. I like them each, but I am now nearly four years in and two years with both receiving a ton of airplay from my local station, I am just tired of them.

Wow I did not expect Chris Young would be out so quick even if the song wasn't too well-received. I like "Losing Sleep" (it was definitely a grower though), although I agree with many here in preferring his more traditional-leaning stuff.
