Finally finding a moment to update this. This rankdown is officially closed to submissions. I am working on graphics and will begin reveals this weekend sometime. In the meantime here are some questions for everyone:
What will be #1? What will make up the top 5?
What will be #30? What will make up the bottom 5?
Will a solo song or a duet song do the best?
What was your favorite discovery? Any other thoughts/comments?RECEIVED: castleoblivion26 ccarter1023timbboat11taylorsomeguy.indulgecountryFOLLOWING: zack97

What will be #1? Going to guess it'll come down to either "House of Cash" or "Dear Miss Loretta" What will make up the top 5? "House of Cash", "Dear Miss Loretta", "Love Don't Let Me Down", "My Kind of Woman/My Kind of Man" and "Can't Get Enough" being her only solo effort to possibly make it in
What will be #30? Here's hoping it's mine, but I'll guess it'll be something more along the lines of "Far Side Banks of Jordan" if only because of Kris Kristofferson's vocals What will make up the bottom 5? "Far Side Banks of Jordan", "Let's Set the World on Fire", "Back Street Affair", "Pretty Polly", and "Every Kinda People"...also can't rule out "Send a Message to My Heart" if only because I know how much our Tractors love Dwight
Will a solo song or a duet song do the best? I think the top 5 is going to mostly consist of duets with only an outside chance of having one of Patty's solo songs even make it in
What was your favorite discovery? "The Rainbow Down the Road" with Radney Foster hands down...I don't even have any recollection of hearing that in Maverick Any other thoughts/comments? I'm most interested in seeing how her solo songs perform as the best efforts from this are her duets I think. And while "Can't Get Enough" is likely regarded as one of her weakest songs amongst her discography overall, I think it'll perform well enough here to at least make the top 5 if only due to familiarity

What will be #1? I'm going to go with either Dear Miss Loretta or My Kind Of Woman/My Kind Of Man What will make up the top 5? The two mentioned above along with Can't Get Enough, The Rainbow Down The Road. Not sure about the 5th. What will be #30? Hopefully Jack Of Diamonds or Pretty Polly What will make up the bottom 5? Jack Of Diamonds, Pretty Polly, Far Side Banks of Jordan, Lets Set The World On Fire, It's What You Don't Do Will a solo song or a duet song do the best? Duet What was your favorite discovery? I actually really liked Send A Message To My Heart. (I wasn't aware of the group's dislike of Yoakam, but it's a good song) Any other thoughts/comments? There were lots of discoveries for me in this list. It'll be interesting how it all shakes out.

First 5 reveals are done and I'm the only one to lose a top 10 thus far. Not surprised one bit as I know many do not care for Bob Segers voice but I absolutely love him with Patty and enjoy listening to this song all the time. It is also the only one of these 5 reveals that I knew prior to this rankdown.
My highest of the first 4 songs to be eliminated was the first one out. I thought "Jack Of Diamonds" was alright and liked it better than some of the other songs so I was surprised to see it be the first out over some other options. That said I knew all 4 of these songs would be gone early on.
What does everyone think of these reveals? Anything you are surprised escaped the bottom 5?

This rankdown is going exactly the way it should be going. These were some rough songs and it's nice to get them out of the way.

This started off about as expected. Three of the first songs out in the bottom 5 I had guessed would likely exit and I should've foreseen "Jack of Diamonds" being one of those as well.
I do wish I liked "The Answers In The Question" more, but there's just something about it that doesn't quite work unfortunately. I too had thought this might be a bottom 5 contender, but in the end I kinda assumed Bob Seger's name alone would at least allow it to escape that.

None of the songs revealed so far were any good, and several of them were downright unlistenable. Good start.

Aww I really liked “Three Little Babes” and would even go so far as to say that it was one of my favorite discoveries. To my ears at least, it sounded like something that would fit in perfectly well on either one of the Mountain Soul albums.
I had pegged “Back Street Affair” as being a possible bottom 5 contender if only because I’m sure a few of you don’t care for or appreciate John Prine. Anyways, this did better than I was expecting it to.
And finally “Every Kinda People” exits! Oui, I didn’t like this one at all. I tried giving it a couple of more listens, but the more I did the less I liked it. The production of this just sounds kinda cheap to me and I didn’t care for the vocal arrangement one bit.
“Send a Message to My Heart” also outperformed my expectations as I know that Dwight Yoakam isn’t everyones cup of tea. Love the throwback feel to this one with the fiddle and steel guitar.
Despite the poor audio quality, “It’s What You Don’t Do” grew on me the more I listened to it and was able to look past that. I think this would’ve done better had there been a studio recording for it.
