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

[fearlessarrow]

The production in this song elevates the song so much, it's SO good. I'm really glad it made the top 10, his best song by far and really deserved the top 10 placement although I am bitter that it fell out of the top 5 on the last list.

It's not my fault some people can't recognize great music ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To this day, the only song from James Bay I have actually enjoyed.

For me, the production does make-up for Bay's lifeless voice.

Lol, am I the first to lose all my top 10? I never expected to do this poorly.

You'll get used to it

I guess I used up all my luck when it came to the Hot 100 rankdown, where I did not lose any of my top 50 in the bottom 20. You win some, you lose some.

Thank goodness "Pink Lemonade" missed the top 5!!!! Don't like it at all. The production and vocal effects totally ruin this song, which happens a LOT for me with modern alt.

I will say the acoustic of "Pink Lemonade" is much better because it doesn't have that echo sound effect that alt LOVES, but I still didn't like the chorus lol.

If you go look at country rankdowns you'll find out which one of us is telling the truth because one of us the one that says the production ruins the song of course is a flop :kii:

Sad to see "Pink Lemonade" miss top 5. I love his voice.

This song exceeded every possible expectation I had. Good on this song for making the top five.

My condolences, @humanshazam, lyhom, BlurryKyle, and janinho. And congrats on clearing your bottom ten, bbfan97. I'm sure your bottom ten will be treated with dignity and respect.

The little song that could. I like this a lot, and I never really cared for other stuff she did.

[SHOOTER]

Perfect title because this did nothing to me or for me.

[willapted33]

great song but I prefer the other 4...

[Leaf]

very cool to see Meg do this well, but for me this is no Desire

[LBTrocks]

I LOVE Meg Myers! "Numb" is great, but it's not even anywhere near being one of her best lol. She is awesome <3

[Mylo13 💜]

Noooo this was my second highest rank remaining lol

[wheatsquares33]

(Numb did not deserve to place over 20 spots higher than Desire, just saying :X)

[Leo ✔]

wow nooo

Yay perfect ranking!

This was my last realistic chance to get one in the top 10; I know my #1 isn't winning

[Deleted]

Cool everything left is in my top 20.

[Zach]

I'd listened to Numb like 10 times before this rankdown and never realized how much I loved it until I was making my list for this.

[Deleted]

this song is so fucking good, the brooding piano starts off the song so well and the chorus explodes in an incredible way, Meg really knows how to show the anxiety she feels, the intonation when she sings the title word gives me chills every time I hear it
