#29 has the twelfth lowest standard deviation of the rankdown.
Two people lose Top 10s, and spoiler: these two have already lost some. Two other people join in the Top 20. This wasn't hated or anything. There are six bottom 10s here, but none of those even though the bottom 5.
This one was looking like it could do well early on. It was in the Top 20 at points, and then it looked like it could keep in the mid-20s. It never landed in the bottom 10, but it lands at its second lowest rung here at #29.

I liked both of the revealed songs so far, but, you know, tough competition. And doesn't it seem like James and I have been tanking each other's top tens lately?

Only two more songs in this rankdown carry no Top 10s – #28 is one of them.
This was weird to follow. There are seven people that ranked this in the 10s, and there were eight people that ranked this in the 30s. This didn't receive a single ranking in the 20s. The standard deviation is pretty much right smack in the middle: 19th lowest (or 22nd highest!).
To continue the weirdness, for the most part, the rankings in the 10s were in the first half of submitters. This even hit Top 10 at a point. It mainly stayed in the Top 20, but around halfway it just started dropping from those 30s rankings. It lands here at #28, one of its lowest marks.

#27 is fun. Highest standard deviation incoming!
With this, we don't see a single #1, damn. We do see four Top 10s and two of those are Top 5s. Three more people joined in the Top 20 here. This kinda is like Lissie, but there are two rankings in the 20s. The back half? Whew. Six bottom 10s here, with four of those going in the bottom 3. One is a #40.
This was actually looking like it could hit the bottom 10. It spent seven lists inside of it, with two of those being in the bottom 5 even. There was enough love for it to be carried out, and with a high SD, it showed it had some support.

Ah, nothing like tanking a song about finding a good friend of yours dead in his apartment. Probably the best written song of this rankdown.
I don't think I've ever been more offended by a musical opinion than when Daryl had the audacity to call Until the Ribbon Breaks "X Ambassadors for hipsters". One of the most faceless and inaccurate comments I've ever seen someone type out to put down a band they don't like.

We end our night here at #26 – the final song to be revealed with no Top 10s.
Five people are here with Top 20s though. Only four people put this in their bottom 10 and one is inside the bottom 5. This one was pretty boring with the rankings honestly, lol.
This one was actually a strong contender for the bottom 5 towards the beginning. It spent the first five lists there before lifting out and heading into the Top 20. It finishes one spot below its peak here at #26.

Please be Moon Taxi
Well, no. Moon Taxi might have a top 10. Another one of my bottom 10s would be nice though

My highest loss yet, but this is a fine spot for "Year Zero".
Still kind of reeling over Until the Ribbon Breaks having the highest SD. That is not what I was expecting, for sure. But Doc ranking it #40? Oh yeah, I knew that was coming. :kii:

So Doc Indie is basically the Gravey of the rock poster world. Check. I have no idea what you mean by this, but it you think for a second this song is something I would like, then you are clueless as to what music vibe I like and hate? . I doubt anyone else here is surprised this is my #40?

30. Wolfie's Just Fine - It's a JobThis one bored me into a coma. You can't say I'm 100% anti-folk, but pretty close. I find this song as entertaining, as most of you would probably find Nordic Metal to be? 29. Honest Men - There on the WallAgain , maine and I, were the only ones who really enjoyed this. I can tell, becuase it was a first time listen for me. 28. Lissie - Don't You Give Up On MeFemale vocals get a different kind of treatment from me. You might consider that a bit bias, but honestly, I love their tones. This song also had some nice bass and guitar vibes I can easily get into. 27. Until the Ribbon Breaks - OrcaThis is a poster boy for the type of Pop music I just can't stand. Sorry maine , but this kind of song is a major tuneout for me. I mean who cares about the lyrics, if you can't stand the music? 26. Moon Taxi - Year ZeroThis is a band that can make music I loathe("Two High"), Music I dig (" Red Hot Lights") and passable tunes like this one.

We're going to get started again! Let's talk #25. This song had both three Top 10s and three bottom 10s. The three bottom 10s aren't low at all, but the three Top 10s...well, two of them are inside the Top 3. Only two other people ranked this inside of their Top 20, so the rest of the seven put this inside their Top 30. #25 is a fitting number since a lot of the rankings were right around this number. This song did pretty well for the most part throughout. Its lowest run was at #27, and that was towards the beginning. This looked like it could hit the Top 20, but the last couple lists pushed this down a bit.

Congratulations Red . You lose your bottom 10 before you even lose a Top 20.
