I had six bottom tens going into the top 30. Half are gone in the first four reveals. I doubt I'll get all six out tonight, but it would be hilarious if it did happen.

I had two top tens that I was really worried about going into this rankdown. Both missed top half.
Redstradamus has risen.
(Also, dammit, I didn't want to be right.)

Let’s swerve away from the controversy on #25. 3 top 10s fall (this seems to be the new minimum, huh), along with FIVE other top 20s. 3 of you put this bottom 10. This was top 10 at one point, and it floated around the top 20 for quite a bit.

#24 was very close to the top 10 highest SDs, like #27 and #26. 3 top 10s fall like usual, 2 of which are top 5s. 3 of you put this bottom 10, and two of those are bottom 5s. Wait, what’s that? One of those bottom 5s is a dreaded #50. Movement wise, this actually didn’t do much. It hovered around the 15-25 range pretty much the entire time.

#23 finally breaks away from the high SDs, as it’s the 5th lowest SD. Only one top 10 goes down here, but it’s a top 5 from someone who has already suffered greatly. 4 more of you tried to help them out by putting this in your top 20. Only two bottom 10s go out here, one of which is a bottom 5. What gave this such a low SD was the number of middle rankings. This song started pretty slow, in the mid 30s, but it slowly rose to the upper 20s.

This next song could be "Bound for the Floor".

And this is the song that pleasantly surprised me the most with how well it did. I expected this to be bottom 10 for sure. I'm a big fan of Mark Kozelek in any project he's in, but I decided to choose the song that introduced me to him. I remember hearing this on SiriusXMU way back years ago. And although there are songs of his I like more (Katy Song, for example), this one holds a special place in my heart.

To a certain extent, the direction Kozelek has gone in his last three albums has great potential. It's fulfilled on other songs, but not here.

Hope you enjoyed that break from the high SDs, because #22 is the 6th highest SD. 5 of you put this in your top 10, 3 of which are top 5's. AND, one of those top 5's is a NUMBER ONE. 3 of you put this in your bottom 10, but what gave this such a high SD was the number of 31-40 rankings. This was bottom 10 at one point, but it rose up through the rankings, even reaching top 20 at one point.

Ugh "Waves" got robbed.
Fleet Foxes and Bright Eyes were expected, but they should have done better too.

Let’s end tonight’s reveals with a break from the high SDs at #21. 3 of you put this in your top 10, 2 of which are top 5s. 4 more of you put this in your top 20. A rankdown low has been achieved, as ONE bottom 10 goes down here. Movement wise, this started off pretty well in the 11-20 range, dipped into the lower 20's, then moved up and stabilized around here.

From one shocking reveal to another, ...this had one of the highest SDs? The story behind this is similar to Possum Kingdom. Discovered it last summer, and fell in love with it. The guitars in this song are waaay too catchy, and the chorus features one of my favorite words--copacetic. And of course, my condolences, Cody .
#22
Local H Bound for the Floor
Points: 412 SD: 15.43031987 (6th highest)
Yeah this one is fantastic. I was shocked when I got to it while listening to your rankdown playlist tbh, but I'm certainly glad you included it. P.S. sorry I haven't been around during the reveals, but I've been checking in the mornings. I was doing pretty well up until tonight

Much better job this time around, everyone. Didn't lose any top 15s, and all of my remaining bottom 10s got cleared out. FWIW, this was the best Coheed song I've heard yet, and it wouldn't be in my bottom 10 if John Coheed's voice just didn't irritate me so much. As for "Fear of a Black Planet"...that would be at least 10 spots higher on my list without the Xbox line. Anyways, since nobody has taken care of stats yet, I figured I might as well give them a shot. Rankdown Closeness Average Rank Left Highest Rank Lost Lowest Rank Left Top 10s Left Bottom 10s Left

I got killed during that set...
White Winter Hymnal was the song that got me into Fleet Foxes, who are now one of my favourite bands. Sun Kil Moon are great, a bit surprised with how well Ben's My Friend did, but definitely not complaining!
I've only got 3 top 10s left, and I'm decently confident that all 3 will make the top 10. Unfortunately for me, I can't see either of my remaining two bottom 10s missing the top 10 as well. Neither song is bad, but I've heard better from the respective artists.

I was hoping Porcupine Tree and the Toadies would do a little better but with a rankdown this competitive they did well enough. Local H performed about as well as I could've hoped for.
With 10 of my top 11 still remaining I can't complain too much. I'm really happy that my #9 and #11 are still going. The only song left in my bottom 20 is my #42. I'm not surprised at all that it's still here.

Alrighty, let’s start off tonight’s reveals with, erm, #19! #19 boasts the 8th lowest SD in the entire rankdown. Only 2 of you lose a top 10 here, but one of them is a very high top 5. 6 more of you put this in your top 20. Only one of you put this bottom 10, and it’s not a low bottom 10. Movement wise, this didn’t do much as the low SD would indicate. It got as low as 27 and as high as 15.

Let’s step away from the low SDs as we tackle the 7th highest SD in the rankdown at #18. This song holds 4 top 10's, one of which is a top 5, and one of which is a dreaded NUMBER ONE. What caused the division was 4 bottom 10's, only one of which is a bottom 5. This was in the top 10 for multiple lists--hold on, it was also in the top 5 for multiple lists. It only dipped out of the top 20 for a couple lists, but it quickly got pulled back in to settle in around the lower teens.

Not sure if my #1 would warrant a high SD, but stranger things have happened.
