#32 "Earthquake" feat. Trina
Points: 185 Average: 24.59 SD: 6.870 [/div] Rankings: A standalone digital single released in 2011 (I'd like to think was a sassy clap back at the criticism she was receiving for performing in strip clubs).

...and someone is already losing a top-10 ranking with the #31 reveal. It has the 7th lowest SD of this rankdown and even with a top-10 ranking, much like Earthquake, it was never able to escape the bottom 5.

The first single from Mýa's Beuaty & The Streets mixtape released in 2009 while she was competing on Dancing with the Stars. While I've always appreciated the hip-hop influence in her music and her choice of collaborators, this once has always fallen flat for me.

#30 is a non-single with the 8th highest SD of the rankdown that will see the loss of FOUR top-tens - including a top-3.

Written and produced by R. Kelly, this was included on the Life soundtrack and has always been a low key favorite (even with my low ranking).

#30 had the 8th highest SD while #29 has the 8th lowest SD and I will say I'm kinda surprised it basically lived inside the bottom 5 for the whole RD. It came very close to breaking out but couldn't quite manage enough points in the end.

The second single from the Beauty & The Streets mixtape, this was recorded when Nicki was a fresh Young Money/Cash Money signee. Mýa confirmed the two recorded it together in studio from scratch and it's always been one of my favorite Nicki cameos. This deserved better than bottom 5!

Earthquake: Wasn't expecting this one to be last place, but I'm not mad at its placement either. I've never liked it.
Show Me Somethin': This one I'm surprised by. I didn't expect it to make the top 10 or anything, but there are quite a few worse songs here.
Why Should I Believe You?: For someone who's been a fan of Mýa for as long as I have, I knew embarrassingly little about her soundtrack contributions before starting this. This is one that I hadn't heard before, and after multiple listens, it didn't leave much of an impression on me.
Ponytail: One of the better tracks on Beauty & The Streets. Obviously it's notable for featuring Nicki before people knew who she was, too.

Damn. Was hoping for better for this one.
If Nicki on it, it slaps, ho.

#29 closes out the bottom 5 and the only song in the bottom 5 that managed to escape twice only to get knocked right back down. 10th lowest SD with only 1 top-10 loss (and my personal least favorite of the RD).

Included on Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire soundtrack, it's cute but also painfully cheesy to me and quite possibly my least favorite thing Mýa has done aside from that awful James Bond video theme song.

Oh yay! I completely agree with this being cute but super cheesy. If I'm calling something cheesy, it's something because I think I have a pretty high tolerance towards cheesiness.

#27 is another independent release with the sixth lowest SD of the rankdown and two top-10 rankings (and I should add that although it is so low, it's not as hated as the bottom 5 with a 29-point gap between the 27 and 28).

Included on Mýa's 2012 K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple & Sexy) album, it was her first US-released album since Moodring in 2003 and the fans voted for this song to receive a video. I ranked it #27 but, to be fair, I LOVE my top-27 and I've always thought this was one of her best grown and sexy records.

Last reveal of the night at #26 is yet another independent release that landed in the middle of the SD pack but will cause two more top-10 losses including a second top-3 loss!

Originally included on her Valentine's Day 2014 With Love EP, Mýa eventually released an extended version of Space later that year (featuring a rap verse from her brother) and it has come to be one of the few independent records regularly included in her full concert sets. I've always loved the production on this and makes me crave more live instrumentation in her future music.

This was a fun start! Will try to get reveals started earlier tomorrow so you can find out who experiences the first Top-TWO loss in the rankdown! :kii:

Earthquake is so fun, wtf lol. Space was a nice listen as well. I'm doing okay, the songs revealed so far have been all over the place with my rankings.

Earthquake - A guilty pleasure mess. It's far from the best thing she has done but it's not worse either.
Show Me Something - It's ok. It is rightfully placed at the bottom.
Why Should I Believe You - Out of all her soundtracks contributions this is the least favorable/knowledgeable.
Ponytail - an improvement over Show Me Something but it's still nothing brag home about,tbh. Nicki's verse was a bit of a dud and useless.
Where The Dream Takes You - Her Aaliyah's Journey To The Past moment. For the most part the song is cheesy but I still listen anf enjoy it. This is another one of her forgotten soundtrack contributions. It's still above WSIBY,imo.
Mr. Incredible - One of the better songs and standouts on the K.I.S.S.
Space - Love Space and its production. It gives Sade vibe and one of Mya's better independent offerings. I ranked the extended version low because I prefer the original version more. She should've left it as an interlude. Much more fitting.
