I guess this could be "Into the Ocean". Maybe.

How does this elicit a #99?

How does this elicit a #99? I ranked this #59, and I can't get over this having two bottom fives. Holy schnikes.

Anna Molly. Dig. Jesus Christ. Lazy Eye. Prayer of the Refugee. Starlight.
One of these songs will unfortunately miss the top 5. The gap was not large, with only FOURTEEN points separating #6 from #5.
Another #1 bites the dust here. Three people ranked this in their top 5, but it does have eight top 10s overall. Only six other people ranked this song in their top 20, for a total of fourteen top 20 rankings, which is not a lot this late in the game. It was boosted this high by a relative lack of extreme hate: only two people ranked this bottom 30. Now that the unholy trinity has been cleared, I can say this with confidence: this song has a bottom 10.
This song saw some top 10 action early, but then it went 18 straight lists without showing up there. Once it reached the top 10 again, it held steady in the top 5, but one of the later lists dropped it back down here.

It might be "Dig". I don't know, though. At this point, I could see every song remaining winning this.

This is fantastic. One of my favorite first listens here. I might like this one even more than "Hate Me".

I really liked this one. Both this and "Anna Molly" were great.
Glad they didn't go the way of "Oil and Water", lol.

A bottom ten for this? That seems odd.
Great performance for it, though. If only it could have been higher than the other big single of theirs...

#5 sees us lose - surprise, surprise - at least one #1 ranking, again!
This song has the highest standard deviation of the entire top 10. Twelve people ranked this song in the top 5, which is the most out of any song in the entire rankdown. This song has fifteen top 10 rankers, which is the second-most on the entire list. This is clearly the song that was the most loved, but it had stronger opposing forces preventing it from being crowned the champion. Four people ranked this song in the bottom 30, including almost three bottom 20s.
This song’s motion wasn’t that exciting to track. It was a top 10 contender the entire time, and it spent 27 of the last 28 lists in the top 10. This was a song that was always going to be here, regardless of what the lower rankers wanted.

in all honestly though I'm glad this got so far, this song is fucking incredible
(also I'm more shocked than I should be about my #1 making top 5, so glad it did though)

Hopefully Rise Against - that song is swimming around in my 70's.

This is the first time I'm really worried that this could be "Starlight".
If it is, though, at least it made the top five.
(If it's "Prayer", HIT THE DECK!)

It's Finally Jesus Christ :'(
Edit: Though a live Clone Hero stream is playing POTR now, would be creepy if it's Prayer

#4 pales in comparison with Brand New in terms of the top-end support. It beat it out by a matter of 34 points.
There’s a measly three top 5 rankings, seven top 10 rankers, and just fourteen top 20 rankers. However, the top 4 share something in common - no bottom 10s! Doc’s #96 for “Jesus Christ” was the last bottom 10 of the game (although we should probably revoke his license for that.) The complete lack of hate for this song is what helped land it in the upper reaches of the top 10. It has one bottom 30 ranking, and it barely even qualifies. We do see a new rankdown-high 27 top-half rankings here.
This song made its way to the top 10 rather quick, but for a while, it hung around the lower end. It briefly fell out, but it made its way back in very soon. This song never reached higher than #4, but a fun fact: it spent the last 12 lists at #4. #10, “What I’ve Done”, is separated from #4 by 145 points. #4 is separated from #3 by 157 points. Yeah, this top 3 was hard to crack, and once it established itself, there was no changing it.
