Meanwhile...I usually try not to question ranks anymore, but #98, American Idiot? Really? I usually try to understand why people would dislike a song, but I'm honestly baffled here. Yup. I found 97 songs to be better than it. I've never liked any Strokes songs other than "Last Nite." You're all going to hate me for saying this, but I can't stand Julian Casablancas voice. Also, not into the whole garage rock sound. Notice how I've never really ranked much by bands like The Vines or The Hives very high as well. Just my two cents.

this song is phenomenal, the groove, the way the intensity of his vocals perfectly matches the instrumental, the guitar solo. Glad it made the Top 10 but was hoping for Top 5.

Well, I personally disagree with much of your opinion...but I appreciate the reply, at least. Anyways, let's move on to #6. We lose a #1, five more top 5s, six more top 10s, and six more top 20s. Seven of you ranked this in your bottom half.

I like "Reptilia", though it did take me a while to get into it. That's the case for me with most Strokes songs. (The one in 2003 was one of the exceptions.)

My condolences, aerodynamite. I assume a few of you will be glad to no longer have to deal with Muse in retro rankdowns, at least. 6

Interestingly the top 5 (top 6 actually) matches that of KROQ (alt radio station in LA) year-end countdown. Wonder how close it will match same order? www.rocklists.com/kroq-2004.htmlKROQ Top 106.7 of 2004 1. Modest Mouse - Float On 2. Incubus - Megalomaniac 3. Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out 4. The Killers - Somebody Told Me 5. Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit 6. Muse - Time is Running Out

Surprise, I didn't put this top five, let alone #1. It's almost in my top ten purely because it had to be. If anything, I'm bitter because I missed out on a perfecto.
...yo, real talk, can "Somebody Told Me" not win this, please?

Man, I was hoping this would be in the top 5. Awesome song, easily one of my favorites from Muse.

Didn't write a preview because I felt like anything I would write for this would give it away. Oh... wheatsquares33. How close this came to joining "Mr. Brightside" (as well as a few other songs in past Active rankdowns) in not having a single bottom half rank. 5

Pleasantly surprised this did so well. I thought it might have a shot at top ten, but I wasn't expecting top five at all.

#4 spent five lists at the top. Two people lose their #1, five more lose a top 5, and...14 more lose a top 10. Meanwhile, six people ranked it in their bottom half.

My condolences, rowellfarm490 and Walking Contradiction. Fun fact: This had the most top 10s of any song on this rankdown. 4

That's a shocker. I was sure that was the #1 song.
The hell, I'm actually under the median ranking with my ranking of #10.

It's amazing to think this isn't Modest Mouse's best rankdown performance.

Wait what lmao I legit thought I'd ranked this higher *goes to re-check list* Oh nope, that's accurate.
So the top 3 are my #7, #8 and #12. Not bad, but my #12 would be a fitting upset ftw.

#3 has another pretty low SD, the 21st lowest. Someone will lose their #1, 10 more will lose a top 5, and another 7 will lose a top 10. Only three people ranked this in their bottom half, but all three bottom half ranks are within less than 10 spots of each other.
