I do not think Unbreak will win because not so many casual Toni fans are doing this or am I wrong? So are casual Toni fans not welcome? I'm one of them, and someone who would likely put UMH very high... I know about half of the songs, and I'd be interested in listening to the rest

I've been listening to her so much this past month that I had to resubmit my list twice and still want to do it a third time I look forward to seeing how this plays out!

A single person has tanked the long-standing #2. It was trailing #1 by a margin of 5-7 points and was tanked so hard it is now down to #5. So please get your lists in to save this lovely song. [Semi-Spoiler: Please note, neither of the songs in question are "Un-Break My Heart"] Crap these always sneak up on me! I hope you decide to extend to Monday =] It may be extended due to technical difficulties anyway. If I have tagged you in this post, please check your direct messages. @phillippe listed "Woman" twice and left off "Maybe." Some people did not rank her 8 studio albums so I am waiting to hear back on those. andrewantonionewpowerGeorgeTroublemakersomeguySambalada🇯🇲 lucy88 🇯🇲

I think it IS well known that I am pushing and rooting for this rankdown for months! And I would be happy to see 50 or 100 people - fans, fake fans, casual fans to participate! I just asked if I am wrong that Unbreak my heart is not fav among the fans of Toni? Really... after comments like this, I totally lost the will for this one :/

I didn't take your original post to be exclusionary but I can see how others might have misunderstood. We're all excited to see the reveals. And thanks to Bat for the opportunity to dust off our 90s CDs for another spin.

I've seen Rockers "complaining" about some of us, more Pop posters, participating in RDs, etc. I was just checking, but happy to see that it's all good here :) I listened to all the songs and ranked most of them. I'm pleasantly surprised at A LOT of her songs from the past 10 years. Why hasn't she had a comeback? She's produced solid music. I'll re-listen to al songs again later and send my RD... and yeah, I can see several 1990s songs not being high in my RD...

Wait - are you making it a requirement to rank her albums as well? 'Cause dude... that's not very fair. I don't know her albums.

I think from everything I wrote in this thread it is super clear I had no slightest bad intentions Toni is all about keeping it positive And I love her and admire her for that But this ... Man, I can't express how disappointed I feel :/

Well I've submitted a list; the amount of first-time listens I enjoyed wound up pushing 'Unbreak My Heart' out of my top 15(!).

The album version of UMH wouldn't have ranked high on my list. My ranking is based on the Soul-Hex remix.

But c'est la vie... Срања се дешавају Come on, man, I was asking a question with no bad intention either... I think you're also misinterpreting the tone and content of my post. My apologies if I made you feel bad... it was NOT well known for me that you were pushing for this RD or anything around that. I'm not the frequent Pulser that I used to be. Peace out :)

Had no idea this was an official single. It was, at least here in Costa Rica, and it was pretty huuuge.

No, but I would like as many people to participate in that part if they can. Jeez everyone is so touchy in this rankdown. After the drama of my recent ones, I'm gonna take a break from hosting for a few months.

^Awww, thanks. I'm also a bit out of ideas at the moment... Most of my faves have been done. Maybe CiCi or Monica? I also have a 3-part Cher possibility and Kylie's B-sides. To everyone else, you have about 6 hours!! However, I have a busy day at work and won't start reveals til tomorrow evening, so if you get it in by 4pm EST, I'll still accept the list ( Albie)

I'm soo glad that I participated in this RD. My top 10 includes 5 songs I hadn't heard before this RD (!). Also, I didn't have an idea she had gone full dance, which was cool to hear. Anyway, I look forward to the results of this RD. And bat1990, I'd definitely go for a CheRD :)

I'm still editing my list - I love The Heat and Libra so much and I need them to be done right! I've agonized over my top-10 for that reason but I genuinely love songs from each of her eras so I think my top-10 covers all bases (and only 1 Becky bop made it in).
