In the battle of these two career smashes, "Would You Go with Me" cleaned up the competition with a near 40-point lead over the runner-up "Why Don't We Just Dance," to claim a decisive victory in the Josh Turner rankdown. The toe-tapping honkytonk number "Why Don't We Just Dance" was no slouch as it consistently ranked among his most popular tunes throughout the submission process and managed to get two #1 ranks courtesy of LBTrocks and CoJoFan in addition to over half the participants placing it within their top 5s, and better still, only mamasaid opted to put it outside their top 10. Likewise, the winner only had one sub-top 10 rank with George Strait Junkie slotting the plucky bluegrass-tinged uptempo "Would You Go with Me" at #15. On the other hand, it racked up an impressive seven #1 placements and damn near everyone had it comfortably tucked within their top 3, leading it to an easy win in this rankdown. "Would you go with me if we rode the clouds together Could you not look down forever If you were lighter than a feather Oh, and if I set you free, would you go with me"
"Baby, why don't we just turn that TV off? Three hundred and fifteen channels of nothing but bad news on, Well it might be me But the way I see it, The whole wide world has gone crazy. So baby, why don't we just dance?"

The crazy lady voted for "Your Man" for a very specific reason. I used this for my hubby's ringtone on my phone. He worked hard at being a good husband for over 30 years, so this song will always have a place close to my heart...I'm good with "Would You Go With Me" winning, it was my #2 pick...I do love JT...he's all about romance, fidelity, devotion...all the good things in life.

Another rankdown winner that was hinted at the thread title lol I always just make a pun out of an artist's song title when I do rankdowns (like Jo Dee Messina's was Bring on the Rankdown, i.e.), so that's where that came from, lol. I did think it had a good chance of winning this rankdown because I figured it would have a lot of support but wouldn't be tanked due to overplay or being overrated like "Your Man," for instance, but I didn't quite expect it to run away with the victory in the manner that it did.

Was hoping for âLong Black Trainâ but âWould You Go With Meâ is fantastic and a deserving winner. Great Shawn Camp penned tune and definitely one of those big hits of the 2000âs that makes me miss that music nowadays on mainstream country radio. The mandolin is majestic and I love the production, vocals and charming melody.

I'm assuming you definitely enjoy "Why Don't We Just Dance" as well since you're a big fan of his, but I'm curious how much? lol, you ranked it lower than everyone. I LOVE it. That is the one Josh Turner song I have thoroughly enjoyed and actively listened to over the years... so good. Josh Turner has a lot of talent. My friend is itching to get me to go see him live when he comes to my local fair, which happens to be minutes from my house. I just might have to go...

I didnât get a chance to comment as much as I wouldâve like to but Iâve followed along for each reveal! âWould You Go with Meâ has long been a favorite of mine and Iâm happy it ended up coming out as the winner and while I was hoping âLong Black Trainâ would come in at or near the top I think that âWhy Donât We Just Danceâ is just as deserving for a top 2 showing. The one song I shouldâve ranked a few spots higher is âAnother Tryâ and often forget just how great it is so Iâm glad it ended up making it into the top 10. Thanks to .indulgecountry for hosting this and introducing me to some more of Joshâs music!

You will be wildly entertained in a very low key way...He oozes Southern charm & dry humor. At one show some guy wanted Josh to propose for him...Josh says "I don't do another man's dirty work. I already got me a woman"...had the guy come up and do it himself....(she said yes). His band is excellent.

The perfect winner! Would You Go With Me is terrific, and definitely one of my favorite country songs ever. There wasn't (for me) any other possible option to win this. Thanks indulge for doing this rankdown!

Perfect winner but really any of the top 4 could've won and I'd have been happy!
