#45-34: The Korg M1 Set Let's begin this cutthroat rankdown with, what else but #45. Every single song received a top 10 ranking, so no one should consider themselves safe before any reveal. Especially the person starting off with a top 5 loss. 4 more top 20s go down with him. But there's a far better chance you're one of the 13 players losing a bottom 10, 7 of which were bottom 5s (none are 45s, before you get your hopes up). This song was never higher than top 30 and was pretty consistently in the bottom 5, but only became the #45 fairly late.

This could be Thomas Dolby, but I'd assume he'd have at least 1 45 rank

Honestly, I considered giving this a 7/10, just as I considered it with most of my 6/10 songs.
Why do you do this to me, gates

As spicy as this rankdown should turn out to be, funny enough, the high SDs aren't very high in number, owing to the variety and spread in the participants' rankings. Case in point: #44 is the 6th highest SD already, but it's only ~ a 14. This song only has one more top 20 overall than the 5 "Europa" got, but all are top 15s, one is a top 10, and 2 are top 5s. On the other end are 6 bottom 10s, 4 bottom 5s, and our first two 45 rankings. This song was moreso in the 20s or even top 20 in the first third of the process, then was blasted into the bottom 5 and stayed there for the last 11 lists.

Ahh damn it, I knew this one would have a high SD. I enjoyed this a lot, it sounded a bit less accessible than a lot of the other stuff here though so I didn't think it would end up that high.

#43 has a pretty high SD, but it used to be in top 9 highest -- it's not quite there anymore. No dancing around it; someone will already be losing their #1. Another top 5 and top 10 can be found, too, as well as 3 more top 20s. In quite the contrast, 5 people will be ridding themselves of #45s. There are 3 more bottom 5s and one more bottom 10 to go with it. This song's position in the rankdown didn't ever have anything other than a 3 or 4 in front of it, and way more often it was 4. In fact, it touched base with last place a few times, so the #1 loser could've had it even worse.

The worst of a really, really solid bunch.
I wish, just once, gates would include a song that I actually don't like, so I could rank it accordingly. :kii:

I said earlier that there were songs in my bottom 10 that I liked. This was the main one I was thinking of.
Despite my ranking, this is a beautiful song, and I wished it lasted a bit longer.

You must be on fucking METH to put this at 45. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. This song is gorgeous and it makes no sense to be down this low. My love of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind certainly influenced this at my #1. There was no other choice, I greatly value emotion or depth in music. To each their own, I guess.

#42 spent 2 lists in the top 20, was dropkicked into the bottom 5, got back up to top 30, then faced a mostly steady decline afterwards, though it only fell back to the bottom 5 with the penultimate list. 7 people shed bottom 5s, and and 3 bottom 10s come with them. Showing support for the song are 5 top 20s and 2 top 10s, one given by someone who has already lost one.

Not even a little surprised to see this out so early. This rules, but I accepted long ago that Devo are, very clearly, not for everyone.
Now, if any of my other top tens go out early, I'll be very surprised.

If you want to see more songs with top 20 aspirations in their past, here's another one. Though, said movement and one more were the only times it was outside the bottom 15. It slipped out of the bottom 5 around the middle, only to get pushed back down and hold down this spot in the rankdown for the last 4 lists. We axe a top 5, 2 top 10s, and 2 top 20s. Three people handed this song bottom 5 placements, and 5 bottom 10s were thrown on the pile.

#40 was another candidate for last place once upon a time. Well, this "once upon a time" wasn't very long ago; its troubles stretched into the second half of submissions. Someone gets to drop off a last place ranking, at least. Three more bottom 5s and 3 bottom 10s are the reason this song was so often down in the dumps. But it was saved by 5 top 20s and 2 top 5s

No lie, I would submit for a disco rankdown so quickly, especially if you were to host it. I have an unhealthy fascination with disco.
This is good, though it has never been one of my absolute favorites of the genre.

#39 is home to a pair of 45s, 3 bottom 5s, and 3 bottom 10s. But it was lifted by 6 top 20s, a top 10, and a top 5. Again, this was somehow top 20 early, but not for long at all. Quickly was it capsized to the bottom 10 and then bottom 5, struggling to rend itself from the bottom until 3 lists from the end.
