Bottom five? 3) What single will be eliminated first and when? 4) What album track will place the highest and where will it land? 5) This album only had two singles; if you had to pick up to two more songs to be singles for a more complete album era, what album tracks would you have chosen to be singles?

1) What will be #1? Top five?I think #1 will be "Hurt", with "Heart Break", "Big Love In a Small Town", "Good Time to Be Alive", and "Famous" probably in the top 5. 2) What will be #13? Bottom five?"You Look Good". "The Stars", "Teenage Heart", "This City", and "Army" most likely bottom 5. 3) What single will be eliminated first and when?"You Look Good", before #10 (hopefully  ). 4) What album track will place the highest and where will it land?"Hurt", in the top 3 and preferably #1. 5) This album only had two singles; if you had to pick up to two more songs to be singles for a more complete album era, what album tracks would you have chosen to be singles?If I could pick two more songs after "Heart Break" finished its run, they would've been "Hurt" and "Good Time to Be Alive", but if I could do whatever I wanted GTTBA would've been first, "Heart Break" second, and "Hurt" third.

1) What will be #1? "Heart Break" Top five? "Hurt", "Somebody Else's Heart", "Think About You", and "Good Time to Be Alive" but I'd like to see "This City" make it in as I really enjoyed that one
2) What will be #13? "Teenage Heart" Bottom five? "Famous", "Home", "Army", and either "The Stars" but I'm really only confident about the first three
3) What single will be eliminated first and when? "You Look Good" at #7
4) What album track will place the highest and where will it land? Hopefully it's "Hurt" and in the top 3
5) This album only had two singles; if you had to pick up to two more songs to be singles for a more complete album era, what album tracks would you have chosen to be singles? "Hurt" is the most obvious choice and given the current state of country radio I'd have to pick either "Think About You" or "This City"

1) What will be #1? Top five? "Heart Break", "Famous", "Good Time To Be Alive", "You Look Good", maybe "This City" or "Hurt"
2) What will be #13? Bottom five? "Home" probably, with maybe "The Stars", "Big Love In A Small Town"
3) What single will be eliminated first and when? "You Look Good" at #4
4) What album track will place the highest and where will it land? "Good Time To Be Alive" at #2
5) This album only had two singles; if you had to pick up to two more songs to be singles for a more complete album era, what album tracks would you have chosen to be singles? Definitely "Good Time To Be Alive" as single 3, and then maybe "Famous" to finish out the album.
Ideally, I would have led with "Good Time To Be Alive", then followed up with "Heart Break". "Famous" maybe third, with "You Look Good" possibly to close out the album as the fourth single. I get why they released it, because it was so different, but there were certainly better songs on the album to choose from.

I am so sorry you guys! I've gotten too busy over the past week or so gearing up for the next potential chapter in my life (grad school applications!). However, there should be time tonight to get through the bottom three of this album. A few of y'all may need to avert your eyes though for what leaves us first, though...Omg PLEASE be "You Look Good"!!!!! Absolute garbage fire of a song... |

Unfortunately, we already kick off this rankdown with multiple top three losses and one of the more polarizing songs from the album. :(
Personally, I found "Teenage Heart" to be the least engaging song of this set and wasn't a hard last-place choice for me.

Awww I liked Home quite a bit. Teenage Heart is good too but just not as good.

For never listening to this album before Iโm doing well so far...and for what itโs worth I correctly predicted the bottom 3  |

"Teenage Heart" is so catchy! I'm shocked to see it be so hated! The arrangement just works for me, and feels like one of the higher-energy moments on a rather low energy album. I love all the powerful ballads and stuff, but this one stood out as a nice counterbalance!
"Home" is definitely boring. It has redeeming qualities, but tbh the arrangement never really seems to get started. I'm left wanting more for the entire song, and then it ends.
"Famous" is a song I am mixed about. The verse is SO good, and I love the piano-driven arrangement!!!! However, somehow in the chorus I completely lose interest... I can't help but think this song could have been incredible in the hands of a more capable vocalist like Carrie Underwood.

This song is fine but it just didn't really stand out to me as much as the others.

I'm kind of surprised You Look Good of all songs is still in. But I guess the singles tend to do well.

I like "You Look Good" so I'm happy it is still in. It's a fun song to listen to and the band sounds like they are enjoying themselves when singing it which has been one of my biggest issues with their music

"You Look Good" slaps. Definitely gets a lot of undeserved hate imo.

Definitely a good song that can be fun at times, but Iโd listen to all their other hits before this one.

"You Look Good" is an absolute garbage fire. I don't think I have ever heard a more annoying melody in my life!
