Doing the All of This Love rankdown tonight and gonna try to get to the other one tomorrow.
Side note: anyone who tanks the melodic brilliance of "It's Lonely Out There" is going to be reported to the authorities.

Honestly, nothing on this incredible album was worthy of last place, but I am okay seeing "Til All The Lonely's Gone" be the one that we put there. I enjoy this song a lot, between that fantastic uptempo musicianship, the borderline-revival sound, and Pam's absolutely masterful vocal performance that pushes her to the top of her range in a few places (F#5 at least a couple times!!) Still, on an album this strong, I can definitely understand why it is at the bottom. Now, the title track out at #9?? "Sweethearts Dance" is such a catchy song! Has me hooked from the moment you hear those epic fiddles at the beginning of the song. Definitely sounds like one of the biggest missed single opportunities of her career, if you ask me... I expected it to be trying to push at least one of the singles out of the top 5, honestly. SHOCKED right now!

Honestly, I always thought "Sweethearts Dance" WAS one of the singles from this album. Probably because it was included on one of her hits collections, so I have been playing it for years now alongside her all-time greats like "Maybe It Was Memphis" and "Spilled Perfume". But then when I was doing this rankdown I was like "No way she got SIX singles from one album..." I mean, she was never a big enough star for that was she? 😂 So I looked it up and then I realized...

Off to a good start so far! The title track was the only song on this album I didn't care for, so I'm glad it was bottom 2. The other two that have left so far were also just good, not great.

This rankdown isn't going the way I expected it to at all! I figured "Calico Plains" was one of those album tracks that was some kind of fan favorite or something, because it seems to be an album track that she performs live frequently. It seems like she's included it on the majority of her various live albums. Also it has a very classic sound to it. The first time I listened, I was hooked the moment she launched into that chorus.
I am shocked that "Better Off Blue" and "They Don't Break 'Em Like They Used To" have lasted this long, because imo those ones are both just kinda "there" in comparison to every song that has left so far.

I fixed it now though.

Another fantastic album track from Pam, but I a little surprised by just how well it did here. To me this one feels more like an album track than a single, while a few other album tracks on this cd feel like smash hits. Still, this is one that I enjoy a lot when I listen to it! The uptempo musicianship is, once again, very tight and professional, just like it was with "'Til All The Lonely's Gone".

Shocked to see this end up as the highest album track. It is a really good song, of course, but there are at least a couple others that I prefer.
I may be shocked by the way all the album track results played out, but I am not at all shocked to see all 5 of them leave before the top 5 in favor of the 5 singles!

My predictions for the top 5:
5. "I Was Blown Away" 4. "Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)" 3. "In Between Dances" 2. "When You Walk In The Room" 1. "Spilled Perfume"

"I Was Blown Away" is a catchy enough song, but not really one of her singles that I find myself seeking out a whole lot. I like a lot of the imagery in the lyrics though. "Like a piece of dust on a four lane road, I was blown away." "I never did feel the train go by, but I was blown away." "I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite, but honey, I was blown away." It is all so effective at portraying just how swept off of her feet she was by this sudden romance! Lol
Also, I find it really fascinating that this was apparently her current single when the Oklahoma bombing happened, and she basically asked for it to be withdrawn as a single right as it was knocking on the door of the top 15... Would have been really interesting to see what happened to her career had this song turned into a huge hit!
