1) Which song will finish at #1? If I Die Young.
2) Which song will finish in last place (#32)? Pulse hates slow songs or ballads, so... Peaches and Caroline?
3) Which song will have the highest SD (most polarizing)? Better Dig Two, Stay in the Dark, Comeback Kid
4) Which song will have the lowest SD (least polarizing)? Queen Maybelline, most of the singles
5) Any other thoughts, predictions, or comments about how this will go down? I haven't really seen much discussion by TBP fans before to judge what the general opinions are about their work, so most of these are just wild guesses.

1) Which song will finish at #1? Better Dig Two (I'm thinking "If I Die Young" may have been overplayed and burnt out for some people)
2) Which song will finish in last place (#32)? Comeback Kid
3) Which song will have the highest SD (most polarizing)? Chainsaw
4) Which song will have the lowest SD (least polarizing)? Don't Let Me Be Lonely
5) Any other thoughts, predictions, or comments about how this will go down? I know this rankdown will be full of surprises! I'm hoping for an upset winner. :)

1) Which song will finish at #1? It'll be between "If I Die Young" or "Better Dig Two." I'm gonna give the edge to BDT though.
2) Which song will finish in last place (#32)? Not sure which, but it'll probably be one of the bonus tracks that are less known.
3) Which song will have the highest SD (most polarizing)? Their post-Pioneer singles will be polarizing. Also "Chainsaw."
4) Which song will have the lowest SD (least polarizing)? "Better Dig Two"
5) Any other thoughts, predictions, or comments about how this will go down? "Hip to My Heart" is still awful and I hope it goes out quick.

Oh lol, I didn't even remember ranking this in last place! But I guess I was right to do so Listening to it again now because I didn't remember it at all, and yeah, this is pretty awful... Great choice for last!

1) Which song will finish at #1? I think "If I Die Young" has this in the bag.
2) Which song will finish in last place (#32)? I was gonna predict "Comeback Kid", but I had forgotten how bad "Lucky Ones" is...
3) Which song will have the highest SD (most polarizing)? Maybe "Live Forever"? Or "Chainsaw"?
4) Which song will have the lowest SD (least polarizing)? "Comeback Kid" or "Gentle On My Mind"?
5) Any other thoughts, predictions, or comments about how this will go down? I agree that "Hip To My Heart" needs to gtfo. Awful song! "Chainsaw" is still pretty bad too. The other singles should be in the top 10, easily. Excited to see how this one plays out, I made a lot of cool discoveries by finally checking out their albums!

Wow, what a perfect way to start this! I hesitated to say "Lucky Ones" would be the bonus track out first because I didn't know if anyone else thought it was as atrocious as I did, but yeah, this is one of only 2 totally unlistenable tracks for me. Glad it's gone first.

Completely agree with that assessment. This song just sounds so unnecessarily jarring and harsh. It grew on me quite a bit since submitting, but it is still close to the bottom of their output.

I didn't mind this one after a first listen, but I probably overranked it so I didn't rank all of the bonus tracks to the end of my list ha

Never totally understood the hate for "Comeback Kid." I thought the chorus in particular was very unassumingly catchy and it stayed stuck in my head, and I liked the instrumentation and thought their vocals sounded nice here. Much better than "Stay in the Dark," which will hopefully go soon.

Me neither! I don't think it is strong enough to be a single, but i like it overall! They certainly have way worse songs... I guess the time and context in which this was released didn't help the song at all.

At least "Gonna Be OK" was the highest of the 4 Pioneer bonus tracks, because it's by far the best. That said, Top 10 ranks for it seem a little egregious, lol.

I started liking 'Stay in the Dark' more with time... it has some generic lyrics here and there, and some production choices I would've changed, but overall, it's a not a bad song. I think it deserved a Top 20 placement.

I hadn't heard this or Comeback Kid before this rankdown, but I love this.
