Oh...well, there goes a top 20 I wasn't expecting to lose early, re: Bee Gees.
I really like "She's Gone", but it's also not one of my favorite H&O songs, either.

#37 was in the top 30 two times in the early part of submissions, and in the bottom 10 twice in the latter part. It took on one bottom 5 and four bottom 10s, but it got a bit of help from six top 25 ranks, two being top 15 and one being a top 10.

More top 10s and 5s are lost at #36--one of each, in fact. Only three more people put this song in their top half, though. Just four bottom 10s, but one is a bottom 5 and another is a 50. It went from top 25 to bottom 5 in the space of 4 ballots, and had to drip-feed its way back up.

The risk of putting underrated songs in your personal rankdown is that they stay underrated. At least peacebone backed me up here. 36

Four people will have one less top 20 after #35 is revealed. Three others, though, will have one less bottom 6. The first 4 participants are among its 8 highest rankers, so this song reached a staggering height of 12 early before being sucked dry, hitting a low of 41.

Yeah, my bottom three is decidedly not what you'd expect from me. I like this enough, I guess, but some songs just had to be near the bottom for me.

#34 started in the top 25, then dove into a static life as a consistent 30s presence. Seven people actually put this song in their top half, but only two went as far as top 20, though one of those is a top 10. I suppose the three bottom 10 rankers (one bottom 5) are fine with this leaving.

#33 is the last song to have been 50 at any point--I'll be straight with you, it was the first movement. After that, it experienced peaks and valleys, popping in and out of both the top 30 and the bottom 10. A top 5, top 10, and two top 15s meet their maker with this reveal, plus two other top 25s. Its five lowest ranks can be found at the border of either the bottom 10 or the bottom 5.

#32 is the first song which the majority of us ranked in the top half. Why is it here, then? Because nobody took the top 15 leap, while two people each were bold enough to place it in their bottom 10 and 5. It rose from low 30s in the early stages, reached as high as 17, then lingered just below the top 25 for a lengthy stretch.

The Joni Mitchell song here was originally "Edith and the Kingpin", but then I thought, why be intentionally obscure. Judging by the types of songs that finished lower than this, I think "Edith" would have performed worse anyway. 32

This was the song I expected to lose first from my top twenty. The longer it stuck around, though, the more I hoped it was going to be higher than this. Oh well.
