I was rooting for this so hard - one of the biggest dark horses of this game, and the only time we'll get to rank them in one of these - but I'll settle with a top 20. Anyways, my condolences, wheatsquares33 and @humanshazam. 16

Yep, the top ten purge is real.
I was actually expecting this to have a higher SD. Just a couple of spots away from the top ten, too...

Here we go, my favorite first listen in this rankdown. Glad it made the top 20 on this rankdown.

The high SDs don't stop coming, as #15 holds the 9th highest standard deviation (and the highest one left).
We lose two #1s, two more top 5s, six more top 10s, and five more top 20s. 10 people placed this in their bottom 50, with three of those being bottom 20s, and one being a bottom 10.

Okay, now I'm worried that this is going to be a boring top ten.

Well, the high SDs stop here. We go to a pretty low one now, in fact. #14 has the 11th lowest standard deviation (and lowest of this set). It has two top 5s, three more top 10s, and six more top 20s. Only four people ranked this in their bottom 50, and the lowest rank is only a bottom 30.

Okay, I am now content with the possible top ten again. I have a...personal history with "Work" that complicates matters. It's connected to a significant other I once had, and I can't really objectively hear the song the same way after all these years. Just in case you were wondering why this is so low in comparison to, say, "Futures"...there you go.

#13 is a song whose standard deviation was way, way lower than I expected. I thought it would be among the higher ones, and it ended up in the lower half of the standard deviations instead!
#13 is also tied with #14 - the last point tie of this rankdown. Both songs have the same highest rank - a #2 - so the next highest rank broke the tie, and in this case, it's a #4. We also lose four more top 10s and eight more top 20s. Meanwhile, six bottom 50s, two of which are bottom 20s.

I thought this would be in the top 20 highest SDs, at least - and it instead has the 37th lowest. 13

Glad to see NIN get their best alt placements here, but I wished "Only" performed better than this.

This was the first NIN song that didn't strike me as polarizing. I had a formulated opinion on the very first listen, and it was a good one.

At #12, we lose two #1s, three more top 5s, three more top 10s, and five more top 20s. Six bottom 50s, only one is at least a bottom 30 (and it's a bottom 20).

Who will miss out on the top 10? Let's find out.
#11 has four top 5s, five more top 10s, and eight top 20s. It also has seven bottom 50s, two of which are bottom 25s.

If we can just lose The Bravery, we'll have a top 10 that I'm perfectly satisfied with.
