Pre-Reveal Questions:
1. What will be in the top 3?
2. What will be in the bottom 3?
3. What will be the most/least polarizing song from this album?
4. What single will be eliminated first and when?
5. What will be the top three album tracks?
Planning to start reveals tomorrow!

I'll make this quick: I think the wrong bonus track is out first, even though I ranked it pretty low with most of y'all. That could be due to familiarity, but hey, what do I know?
From this point forward though, each song will have at least one top five ranking, so enjoy it while it lasts! ;)

That's better, I guess? I remember this being quite popular when the album came out; in fact, there's a BTS video of this song posted by the group themselves...so I supposed I shouldn't be too surprised that it would be well-liked by some on here (given the three top fives, including the #3 from HeyHeyHey) despite me not really caring for it (good to know that I got company in that regard ;) )?

Now we dig into somethin' with a countrier sound with "Something 'Bout a Woman", which was sadly placed next-to-last on the album's tracklist. Who knows if that could've hindered how this did? It may just be that stacked of an album (at least imo ;) ). Unfortunately, .indulgecountry becomes the second to lose his #3, although there are less top five ranks this time around...

Wtf "Somethin' bout a Woman" is a jam and one of the few great songs on this album full of average and mediocre songs...

This additional bonus track was actually a first-time listen for me...and I didn't really care for it. I must've missed something to see all these top ten rankings pouring in. Poor Kanenrá:ke though... more than one hit to his top five and we just got started with reveals. :( If it makes you feel any better, once I resume tomorrow, I'll begin losing top five ranks as well...

...and right off the bat, my favorite album track leaves! :( I guess I shouldn't be complaining too much, but I wasn't happy when all those lower rankings kept coming in... Unfortunately, the pain's just getting started though, as we encounter our second most polarizing song next with someone losing their #2! :o

The last three songs to miss out on the top five were pretty close in points, but eventually started to settle in their final positions towards the end. Amongst this trio, we saw our second most polarizing and third least polarizing songs from the album, which are both slow-tempo ballads.
Although I personally prefer "When You Got a Good Thing", "If I Knew Then" was generally more well-liked among us, with much fewer bottom five rankings in comparison to the former.
"Ready to Love Again", which was released as a promotional single on iTunes prior to the release of Need You Now, was also generally well-liked, albeit with more bottom three rankings than "If I Knew Then". I can understand it being a drag for some with the moving piano part mixed with the overall ballad atmosphere.

Oh, and speaking of which, here's the top five!
Need You Now Our Kind of Love American Honey Hello World Love This Pain
Will singles bias reign supreme or could fan favorite "Love This Pain" sneak ahead one of the singles?

I´m surprised that my rank has been very close to the results =). "When You Got a Good Thing" was close to be my #1 because I´ve always loved this one. Although I wasnt expecting Love This Pain on Top5 the others were somehow predictable.

Glad this got bumped as I honestly had no intentions of going this long without reveals (came down with a fever/chills a few days after we made it to the top five, but quickly recovered due to my surprisingly strong immune system! However, I also suffered from another family member loss after some health issues kicked in :'( )
Waiting on all the "sure jan"s to come in anytime... ;)

As you can see, these last two songs were quite polarizing. The former ("Hello World") should come as no surprise, though, as it was also the most polarizing song in the overall singles rankdown several months ago.
Although no one put "Hello World" at #1, we see our first #1 loss with fan favorite "Love This Pain", which ended up gathering even more top five ranks than the former, giving it quite an advantage.

We've finally arrived at the top three which comprises of the three big hits from the album: Need You Now Our Kind of Love American Honey
Since it's getting late on my end, I'll more than likely reveal this top three in one fell swoop, so get ready y'all!

Thanks for bearing with me folks!
Now, there's still a few lists I need to insert for the next album (747), including my own, but I hope to get the ball rolling within the next few days!

Predictable but deserved finish! I love "American Honey" just a bit more so I would've liked to see it come out on top, but just the piano intro to "Need You Now" alone is iconic! Thanks for hosting Cody Wants Out...

With this rankdown finish, I am officially the 3rd person to win 100 country rankdowns!!! After both winning this rankdown themselves, castleoblivion26 is in 1st with 121 victories and tim is in 2nd place with 120. .indulgecountry is next behind me, and this was his 87th victory.
