Totally forgot about this. I would've done as bad as always. My #1 and #2 would probably be Apply Some Pleasure and Back To Black.

Their revenge is complete. Ranking these songs was like drinking poison, but the result was not like eating glass in the slightest. Another fantastic rankdown hosted, singingrulebritannia, as always.

Your Ex-lover Is Dead is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and is without a doubt in my all time top 20 so an easy choice for my #1. If you notice in the video, the frozen lake is the same location from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Lots of parallels from the lyrics and the movie. This isn't the last Ronstad rankdown where that film comes into play.

rip me lmao. Being one of the few EDM listeners here, Daft Punk was a lock for my #1. Even if you don't care about electro house, ATW / HBFS is still a dance classic. Take it or leave it.
I'm not mad at Like Eating Glass winning at all. I expected it to come far, and I adored the song as with everything above it. If Bloc Party's discography is like the song then I'll be interested in them.
Thanks for hosting Gates, surprisingly this has been one of, if not my most successful performance in a rankdown by far, and I couldn't be more ready to take on other daring rankdowns like these.

although I did worse than everyone in this rankdown it definitely doesn't feel that way
I love both of the top 2, and pretty much the whole top 10 to be exact

Carry Me Ohio is phenomenal, one of my favourite first listens I've ever had for a rankdown.

honestly surprised Feel It All Around was the highest SD, coming in I was pretty certain that would be my number one and it obviously ended up being my choice for number one. the atmosphere on that track is like no other song I've heard, quite possibly the best chillwave song ever made imo and of course Like Eating Glass is a flipping fantastic winner, the drumming on that track (and, really, every Bloc Party track) absolutely kills, and it's a jam and a half. I prefer This Modern Love, but Like Eating Glass is still awesome I really can't wait to do your synthpop rankdown, singingrulebritannia, since I've been digging that genre a lot lately. congrats on another successful rankdown and here's to many more!

That version of the Daft Punk song surprised me. If it was the original Around the World it would've been a lock for my #50.
