I have a feeling one of my 30s is going to win this.

Harmony Hall is totally fine. I had it top 30 for a minute even.
But I like this top 3 much better.

Is anyone else surprised to see SSPU in the top 3? I mean it’s great song but is it top 3 worthy?

the most predictable top two ever but I'd be happy with both winners

Nothing like ranking this band in my bottom 10 multiple times, only to give this one a top 10 rank. I now like two songs from these guys!

This song's alright but the lyrical gimmick grows tired for me after around the fourth line

The biggest win out of this whole thing is probably having James rank SSPU so highly.

It Doesn't Matter Why: So what was going on with that sonar?
With the guitars and the vocals, it felt like a throwback to the 1980s.

I don't really like Lana's music, but I loved "Doin' Time" and was rooting for it to win.

10 vs 37 here. If my #10 wins, it'd be kinda funny to me since pushing it into my top 10 was one of my last changes to my list.

I think he's happy with third place, but he looks a little disappointed all the same

Despite the movements for the songs in the top two, and despite all of the time both of these songs spent in the top two, this top two battle really wasn't all that close for a while. They were clearly above the rest of the competition for most of the rankdown, but there was still a clear line between the two songs. Then, a particular ranking was sent in that decreased the gap significantly. The gap kept getting chipped away over time, but never enough for it to matter too much. Then, another ranking was sent in that REALLY shook things up. Eventually, after over 30 movements spent at the #2 spot, and almost 30 consecutive movements spent at the runner-up position, this song finally climbed into the top spot right at the end.
And then, the last ranking came in. And it sent the song from this band that I like more than any of their material released in the last decade back down to the runner-up position.
My condolences, singingrulebritannia, rowellfarm490, and Doc Indie Party Rock.
This song was on pace to do something that just doesn't ever happen, especially in Alt rankdowns. The run at the top this had was just insane to watch live, as it happened. Out of nowhere, though, the bulletproof armor it wore was pierced by two incredibly low rankings. Suddenly, this song was in danger, and, incredibly, after spending a whopping 35 consecutive movements at #1, it fell out of the top spot. Of course, you now know that the last ranking reversed the order, but it still feels so weird that this song didn't just stay at #1.
Congrats on your #1 P-P-P-P-PERFECT RANKINGS, Daryl the Beryl and SHOOTER! If I'm being honest, I wish I could have made my #1 a tie, but, since I couldn't, I had to break the tie, and I just knew this had to be the choice. Obviously, in terms of where both songs finished, I made the right decision, but this really is one of the best songs of the year.
Oh, one more thing: This marks the second year in a row that a song with female vocals has won. We've gotten to the point where it'll be a little surprising if an artist or band with male vocals wins Alt 2020. That's...pretty cool, I won't lie.
