A #12 for "Mercy", wow.
I would say 'wow a #12 "In Case You Didn't Know", but seeing it's LBT it doesn't shock me.

I love both songs so I'm not upset with the results at all but definitely was rooting for "Mercy" more and was sad to see it get tanked near the end of the submissions.

So close! But I totally love both of these so I was fine with either winning. Both of them are masterpieces, imo.

I have specific memories associated with "In Case You Didn't Know" so that's what gave it the edge over "Mercy", but I love both about equally so it was definitely hard to decide which one should be my #1! Glad ICYDK was able to pull this off! Thanks for hosting castleoblivion26!

Boo. Well, I tried. And no, I didn't rank "In Case You Didn't Know" dead last just to tank it and boost "Mercy," as I really do find ICYDK to be dreadful and the worst song on the album. "Mercy" is a BEAUTIFUL song! I adore it. I don't like Brett's voice, his tone is grating to me, but that song is too wonderful to ignore. It was the reason I had to participate in this rankdown despite not being a fan. The only other song on the album I like is "Sleep Without You" but "Mercy" is definitely where it's at and it's a shame that it couldn't pull off the win. Ah well, the suspense was fun and castleoblivion26 did a wonderful job hosting, as usual!

The only thing it has going for it is the fact that the lyrics are better-than-average. Otherwise, the song is completely average. The instrumentation/production is typical mainstream dreck and for me the melody doesn't make up for it at all. Perhaps I wouldn't hate it as much if I liked his voice, but I don't think I'd be much of a fan of the song regardless.

Love the top two so so so much but Mercy is leaps and bounds better, imo. Not surprised ICYDK won since people know it better
