"Anyway" is awful and woefully oversung. I guess she is right and "GODDDDD. ISSSSSS. GRRRREAT." because this is out this early.
Maddie & Tae are good, but the song didn't stand up to most of the songs in this Rankdown, so it finished about where it should have, I suppose.

I think that was my second highest Martina McBride song. Now it’s out. Ouch.
PS: “Smoke” would’ve been my #7 had it won the M&T rankdown.

"Anyway" continues to be one of the most confusing rankdown performers... People either consider it to be one of Martina's best or one of her worst, which is absolutely baffling to me because it is basically quintessential Martina. There is not much rhyme or reason to how this one performs, because it is all over the map. More often than not it gets tanked prematurely, and yet it still never fails to surprise me because it manages to gather so much support along the way. And it's not even entirely thanks to non-Martina fans that it always gets tanked, because "Anyway" was even tanked prematurely out of a rankdown full of primarily Martina fans when it missed the top 15 in the Martina McBride singles rankdown despite the majority of people thinking it would be an easy top 5 contender! But then in the next rankdown full of many of the same Martina fans for the Waking Up Laughing album, it literally steamrollered its way through the competition... Lol that victory was the 3rd biggest difference between the top 2 out of all the country rankdowns so far. But then here it once again vacillates back to faring poorly, while I am super confident that the runner up of the Waking Up Laughing album "Everybody Does" would have been at least a top 30 contender in this rankdown... Anyway, "Anyway" will be back in sabre14 's 2007 rankdown, and my hope is that it can at least keep its top 40 streak alive even though I am 100% expecting it to once again get tanked prematurely.

WOW! I was the top ranker for a Martina song!? I think it is the best song in her catalog. Like, holy crap, she sings the hell out of it. I am absolutely shocked it is out this early.

Oh I forgot about this rankdown. Sad to see ICYDK out already. Rooting for "What Was I Thinking" and "Follow Your Arrow".

I think each of these reveals are gonna hurt regardless. How much is the actual question though? I will admit that there are certain songs on here that I can't wait to see gone and I would almost lose all faith in humanity be highly. disappointed. if one of those songs were to win ( bboat11 will know which ones I'm talking about).

"Love Can Go To Hell" is one of those rankdown winners that seems to me to be just kinda lost in the shuffle. Brandy Clark kicks ass as a songwriter and an artist, but it seems like even the people who love her the most were pretty split in how to place this one among such a strong list. It was pretty much always on pace to finish in the bottom of the 30s. I love the double meaning in the hook of this song! The statement that love can go to hell meaning in some cases that it can go really badly really quickly, and then in other instances telling it that it can go to hell, is the kind of clever songwriting that always hooks me in. Despite it being not one of the more memorable songs on this list though, two people still managed to put it in their top 5 :( Sorry George Strait Junkie and Sambalada. On the flipside, carriefan15 loses at #51 finally!

Yeah not a great introduction to Brandy Clark if you have never heard her stuff before. The other two songs would stand out more here sonically at least.

They analyze your glass of wine, Roll away a pickup line. Now and then they check your phone. Catch mine, and let 'em go. From the little bit I've seen, They're the perfect shade of green. Next time they come my way, Heaven, help me make 'em stay.

"Lonely Eyes" had a really interesting trajectory! As you can see it started out as a top 10 contender because I put it in my top 10. But it VERY quickly plummeted, and appeared that it was going to be a contender for the bottom 2 Fortunately it gradually started climbing again for the rest of the submission process, and became a lock for the top 40. Personally I think that "Lonely Eyes" is one of Chris Young's very best songs, so I was so thrilled when it managed to win the 2015 rankdown! That has still got to be one of the biggest surprise finishes of rankdown history However, it also seems to be lost in the shuffle when compared to other rankdown winners... g8erboi loses his #51 here, while two others all lose a #50... But it also received 3 top 5 ranks to make up for it! Meanwhile carriefan15 went from being the lowest ranker of the last song to being the highest ranker of this song.

He looks like a cool drink of water, But he's candy-coated misery. He's the devil in disguise, A snake with blue eyes, And he only comes out at night. Gives you feelings that you don't wanna fight; You better run for your life!

Lmao I honestly always forget that "Cowboy Casanova" was a rankdown winner Probably because of the way that the rankdown was revealed, with a HUGE break halfway through it, and then the entire rest of the album revealed all at once out of the blue just because zaclord 🌈 didn't care "Cowboy Casanova" was NOT a favorite to win in that rankdown, as it seemed like the general consensus was that this would be the most likely Carrie Underwood album to see an album track victory. However, CC proved victorious, relegating fan favorite "Someday When I Stop Loving You" to #2! I do love CC, even though I always forget about it. The Shania-esque production is awesome, and this has held up better than some of her other polarizing uptempos like "Last Name" and "Undo It". So I was totally happy seeing it win! I am not at all surprised to see it get such a polarizing reaction in this rankdown though. Unfortunately carriefan15 loses her #1 right after losing her #3, while .indulgecountry and sunburn also lose a top 5. Meanwhile tim finally loses his last place.

Hint for #35: Twelve people are going to lose a top 20, but don't you worry... It's gonna be alright!

Unexpected perfect ranking for Lonely Eyezzzz...I found Chris Young to be overrated tbh. This is just decent radio fodder. My list will get Burning House to first place if I could submit one. I noticed the Shania influence in Cowboy Casanova as well, but meh execution and sounds too much a knockoff. i don't think I am good at guessing. It's probably not Cry though.
