Pulse Rankdown: 2018 Year End Alternative Chart (WE'RE DONE)

[Walking Contradiction]

Not a fan of "Passion" at all. Glad it didn't make top 20 or anything, and "Handyman" is a hell of a lot better IMO.

[Lordef†ones]

Puh-puh-puh-pass on this.

[Deleted]

I take it this is revenge for 39? :giggles:

[singingrulebritannia]

Alright two more bottom half rankings to go then.

Yea, while "Screws" might have the MY BRAIN line, it's pretty nice otherwise, whereas this is mediocre through and through.

[Walking Contradiction]

"Painkiller" is pretty good, nothing more or less. About where it belongs, but shouldn't have gone before "Screws".

[Red]

Sorry, gotta make up for lost time a bit and speed things up somewhat. Don't worry, this should only be for a few reveals. Key word "should".

Eh, scratch that, lol. I'm sure it'll be fine. :kii:

#37 isn't a top-20-highest SD, but it's close. Five people lose a top 10, with three being top 5s. Another six people lose top 20s, too. Meanwhile, three people had this bottom 10 (but not bottom 5), and three more bottom 20. Multiple people are clearing their bottom 10 here. This is the first song to have spent time in the top 20.

[morneaumispelled]

Passion being out before Handyman kind of surprises me. With Painkiller, it's about the same quality as Screws so no real problem there.

[House Lannister]

Both songs were OK. I'm fine with them making as far as they did.

[Red]

Man, this song REALLY loves finishing around this exact spot, eh?

Congrats on clearing your bottom tens, SHOOTER and morneaumispelled .

Finally. Please stay in 2016 where the rest of those generic and boring ballads belong.

[Walking Contradiction]

I can see why people like this one, but it didn't appeal to me at all. Keep these low rankings coming!

[morneaumispelled]

Should have been gone awhile go

[Leo ✔]

Ouch :(

[fearlessarrow]

Hmm I liked this one a fair bit. I’m surprised Az doesn’t have this song higher considering Amy Shark is Australian.

[Deleted]

WORST CLOSENESS HERE I COME BABY!

[Red]

#36 brings us to an even higher SD - the 15th highest. Someone loses a top 5 and four more lose a top 10, one of these being a first top 10 loss. Seven more join in with top 20s. Meanwhile, eight people ranked it in their bottom 20, with three being bottom 10s, one being a bottom 5.

[CF15]

The right AWOLNATION song went out first.

[Red]

Good news: It's not their worst performance yet. Bad news: It's their worst performance in an Alt rankdown...and almost by twice as much.

Congrats on clearing your bottom ten, maine .

Signs of Life >>>> this

[Web]

the album is average but this song is still incredibly solid regardless of how much of a left turn this is from AM

[Walking Contradiction]

Well, this did about as well as I expected it to, and within 10 spots of where I put it. It's an interesting song but not one I wanted to keep coming back to.

[lyhom]

I wished I liked this song a little more than I do just so I could make a "the song is definitely 4/5" joke lol

[maine]

This song is a 1.5 out of five.

[singingrulebritannia]

Nothing else on the Alt charts this year had such a distinct Bowie influence, which is why I like it as much as I do

[SHOOTER]

Abore is finally gone?! This Wednesday hasn’t been a total wash after all!

[Red]

We have a string of pretty divisive reveals coming up, but let's cool off with #35 first. There's only two top 10s here...but not only are they both top 3, someone is losing their #1. Six more ranked it in their top 20. Three bottom 20s here, and none are bottom 10, but a few came close. This song spent one list early on in the bottom half.

Well, I did rate it 4 out of 5.

Blame Alanis, but I'm not sure whether this would be considered ironic.

[Red]

Somehow, this song is only Rise Against's third worst performance...at #35. Do these guys use rankdown steroids?

My condolences, American Idiot .
