Thanks to tim for alerting me that I'd missed someguy's ranking in the reveal for "Got My Name Changed Back." For the record it was his #5! LMAO of course this starts a brand new page

Well I dang near had a perfect ranking for the top three and would've if I hadn't made a last minute change in my list when I swapped "Bring My Flowers Now" and "Redesigning Women" positions. "Got My Name Changed Back" is such a cleverly written song that really only someone like Miranda could pull off as she has the spunky personality mixed in with just the right amount of sassiness to make it fun. I figured given Reba's stature amongst the group that she would likely be a top five contender, but I never really thought there would be enough support for it to make a go for the top three. While the song has its share of fans I happen to fall into the latter group who aren't. As discussed in previous threads the main issue I have with the song is that it comes across as a patriotic anthem even though that's not the intention. I just can't get past that idea and whenever I hear the song I see nothing but red, white, and blue. I was most disappointed that "One Night in Tulsa" left just before the top five because that was not only my favorite discovery of the rankdown but is for sure one of the best songs amongst the others. I absolutely fell in love with the song on the first listen and haven't been able to get enough of it since. While disappointing that so many of these songs have to be considered "flops", I think it's fair to say that what the male country artists put out during the same time period pales in comparison to what the females were releasing. Thanks to taylor for taking the reigns on this as it was great getting to revisit some of my favorite songs along discovering some that I hadn't heard before. I initially had quite a few of these songs included in my Country Ladies in the '10s rankdown including the top three finishers as well as others such as "Sister" and "I Can Do Hard Things". When it came to finalize the list, however, I decided to alter course a bit and pretty much did a complete makeover of what I had originally selected. Anyways, I just had to do a shameless plug for that so I hope to see y'all again for the fourth and final rankdown celebrating the women of country music! Oh, and just because I was bored earlier I calculated the closeness stats for everyone: 1. fearlessarrow 3.95 2. bboat11 4.37 3. SHOOTER 4.53 4. recordyear 4.84 4. tim 4.84 6. KanenrĂĄ:ke 5.42 7. .indulgecountry 5.79 8. toomuchboy 6.11 9. taylor 6.16 10. someguy 6.42 11. castleoblivion26 6.89 12. George Strait Junkie 7.16 13. samođŠ 7.26 14. Troublemaker 7.42 15. lipe 7.53 16. LBTrocks 8.26 17. g8erboi 8.32

Anyways, I spy songs such as âGod Made Girlsâ and âMy Mistakeâ appearing in this.

Now what exactly constitutes a âflopâ? I was just looking closer at this list, and I see a few top 20 hits. âLittle Red Wagonâ and âGod Made Girlsâ, for example. Hell, GMG is RaeLynnâs biggest hit!

I also wanted to point out that I have both Lee Ann Womack's "Sent It On Down" and Kacey Musgrave's "Dime Store Cowgirl" selected for my Country Ladies in the '10s Rankdown. I made a lot of adjustments to the list of songs for that rankdown already so as not to duplicate songs, so maybe we should go with something different for 2015?

Well now that's a bit different, because they were flops in 2015 regardless of if they're currently in another rankdown or not... It's not like he can just pick and choose different songs for Lee Ann or Kacey ![:dead:](http://ruadventures.com/forum/Smileys/animated/smiley_resurrect_grave.gif) Edit: Well I guess that's not entirely true. There's "Chances Are" for Lee Ann! Unless maybe it's being saved for 2016, if it happens.

Hell, even "Going Out Like That" was a Top 30 hit! Wasn't expecting that one Anyways, I saw the subtle change and was gonna say something in thread about it, but wanted to keep mum on it so that the surprise wasn't spoiled. I'm excited that this has become a series! (43 songs tho... ![:dead:](http://ruadventures.com/forum/Smileys/animated/smiley_resurrect_grave.gif) this is why country radio ain't s**t)

As far as this rankdown is considered, âflopâ is basically defined as a song released by a female in a respective year that deserved to do better and certainly could have done better if it wasnât for country radioâs sexist mode of operation. "Little Red Wagon" was coming off of two pretty sizable hits, only lasted a bit over three months on the charts, and initiated a five-plus year long top ten drought for her (which thankfully just ended with "Bluebird"). While "God Made Girls" was relatively a success for RaeLynn, it was also one of the worst performing OTV picks and certainly deserved to at least crack the top 10. I believe it sold pretty well but country radio just had to flex its misogynistic muscles... *eyeroll*. So yeah, while some of the songs in this list could be seen as "hits", I feel like none of these songs were given the justice they deserved, which warrants them to be labeled as "flops" (with important emphasis on quotation marks around the word lol).

Okay, that is a good point :) I can get behind that logic! Everything on this list got hampered by sexism in some way or another, even if they didn't completely bomb on the charts...

There are some choices from this hand-picked list. I still sent the list though. And God Made Girls did not flop because of misogyny.

I finished my first listen through tonight, and Iâve gotta say....it makes perfect sense that a lot of these failed miserably on the charts... There are waaaay more questionable songs here than you would usually expect to find in a female rankdown... ![:sip:](//storage.proboards.com/1258812/images/WfP77sf444N0bFhVzFU1.gif) Including a handful that are absolutely terrible!
