thanks for killing off four consecutive top 10s of mine, guys
(also thanks for killing off the best Foos song here first, but I was expecting it to be the first one out since it isn't as radio-friendly as the other two)

#21 surprises me for one key reason. This song struggled early, but it eventually found itself in the top 30 for just about the entire rankdown. It flirted with sticking around in the top 20 twice: Somewhat early in the process...and at the very end.
Of the six people who did not rank this top half, three are bottom thirty rankings. One of those bottom thirty rankings is a low one. Seventeen posters also ranked this song in their top 30, and all but three of those posters ranked it top twenty. A whopping eight posters will lose a top ten ranking before the top 20, and two are top five rankings.

Right band...wrong song.
This was a big surprise to me. I did not think "Faint" would miss the top 10. It missed the top 20.21

#20 ping ponged its way around the top 40 at first, very briefly cracking the top 20 before zooming back out of the top 30. It eventually worked its way back into the top 20, only to get pushed back again closer to the end of the process. Only at the very end did it finally get to the top 20 and stay there.
Eight posters did not rank this song in their top half. Only two of those posters ranked it in their bottom thirty, though one is a bottom twenty. Of the remaining rankings, a good chunk of them (eighteen, to be exact) are top 30 rankings, and all but three of *those* rankings are top twenty rankings. Five posters will be losing a top ten, two will be losing a top five...and at least one will be losing a #1.

I seriously admire how you rankdown hosts use every possible metaphor to describe a song's movement. And I'm not even being sarcastic here, lol.

Well, credit to RHCP for getting two songs in the top 20, but it looks like this train has stopped for at least one of them.

Keeping up the theme of killing off the best song first from artists with multiple songs in here, I see.

Favourite first listen there.
Kind of comes off to me as the love child of "Scar Tissue" and "The Zephyr Song".

#19 was the other "struggling song" that I mentioned in so many of the ballot updates. This one struggled *hard* at first, unable to break into the top half. Once it did, it would struggle to hold on in the top 30. After a while, though, the resistance finally broke down, and it would spend seven of the last nine rankings in the top 20.
Of this song’s seven top 10 rankings, three of them are top 5, and one of them is even a #1. Five more top 20s and three more top 30s round out the top rankers, as twenty-seven people ranked this in their top half. Of the six who did not, only one person ranked it bottom 20. Another came close, but those were the only two bottom 25 rankers.

#18 only received five top 10s, but it was backed by ten more top 20s and five more top 30s. Of the top 10 rankers, only two ranked them top 5. With twenty-six top half rankings, only two people ranked it bottom 20, but one of them is a bottom 10, and one of them caused this song to fall right at the very last ranking.
This song spent some time in the top 10 but gradually kept on falling throughout the submissions process.

#17 earned thirty-one top half rankings, which means only two people ranked it in the bottom 50. Amazingly enough, that’s not the best number for a song in this rankdown. Six people ranked this song top 10, including two top 5s. It only received five other top 10s and three more top 30s, which is why it ended up lower than one would expect a song with its stats to.

Wow, only #24 for Doc Indie Party Rock? I figured this would be a top 5 lock for him, sounds like their attempt at The Cars' sound.

#16 only received two top 10s, but one of them is a top 5, and a high one at that. It received seven more top 20s and – wait for it – THIRTEEN more top 30s. With thirty top-half rankings, only three people ranked it in the bottom half, and none of them reached the bottom 20.
This song came close to reaching the top 10 so many different times, but spent almost the entire rankdown between 11 and 16.
