Love Bites: A Rockin' Lovebirds Special (2/29 11:59 pm)

[Deleted]

This is an '80s/'90s rock power ballads playlist that I have had and loved for years and I always thought it would make a good Valentine's Day rankdown. And in some alternate universe I closed this on time and it did indeed make for a wonderful Valentine's Day rankdown. Alas, in this universe we will have to settle for Valetine's month...hopefully.

Rank all songs from your personal lovey-dovey top (1) to your heartbroken bottom (40). PM the list to me, @antigonerising , by Saturday, February 29 at 11:59 pm CST. The list is presented in non-numbered form, but please number your list when sending your ranks, as this makes it easier for me to double-check my entries and avoid/correct errors.

This is a fairly pop-friendly set of songs with several crossover hits (and also, I am not 100% sure the 'real' rock heads here will care for it) so I'm using both the rock and pop tag lists. Let me know if you do/do not want to be tagged. You do not have to be tagged to participate _{but if you are the rare person who found your way to being message-blocked you're SOL #sorrynotsorry}

replace "spotify" in the URI with "user:[your username]" to get the playlist working

I know this because I edited one of my rankdown OPs about 20 times trying to get it right when spotify changed how playlist URIs are copied lmao

I was testing the Crush playlist (which is about to be its own rankdown) to see if I could make any playlist show up. But I got LB to work now (and hopefully Crush will also work in a few) so we're good to go!

Shhhhhhh you're talking too loud! But no fr, that is genuinely coincidental. One of the things that I always thought was really cool as a lamb is that Mariah and I have pretty similar taste in music. Without You was the only one of her covers I didn't already know and love when she covered it.

This does remind me - though it should go without saying, I meant to specify that you should only rank the version of the song that is given in the rankdown. Don't rank any alternate versions or covers (of which there are many)

[willapted33]

i really want to rank Never Tear Us Apart number 1, but i'm just not willing to sit through the warrant, journey, def leppard, bon jovi & guns n roses to get there, sorry

could i please be tagged in reveals though

[Cody Wants Out...]

Ooh! I think I'll do this one! :)

[🅳🅸🆂🅲🅾]

Amazing song choices! I will do this one.

Here to represent the "Real Rock Heads". 

[Caviar]

I’ll pass on this.

[Doc Indie Party Rock]

submitted. Most of these songs are on my daily playlist, so This wasn't very hard for me.

on a different note. how could "Miles Away" from Winger and "Forever" from Kiss miss this list. I would have also been happy with "Beth". All three songs give off strong love power vibes.

[#LisaRinna]

Submitted!

I have failed terribly at doing reminders for any of my rankdowns, my apologies. I've extended the deadline a few days to make up for this (aka harass you guys daily for ranks) but I may push it out further if necessary and if so we'll just have to pretend this wasn't originally going to be a Valentine themed rankdown lol.

Let me know if you don't want to be tagged

I changed the deadline (again) but I'm not revealing this until I get at least 10 participants (and I'd really prefer 15) so the real deadline is 'when Cynthia gets enough time to harass at least 10 people to do this'

Yep, I'm participating.

[Deleted]

Tag me, please. I'll get a list done in a couple of days.

[Deleted]

Good lord, I forgot how amazing Bed Of Roses was.

[Doc Indie Party Rock]

I hope the list of participants is still growing? Also your spotify list kinda dissapeared.

[Deleted]

Are you still doing this?

[Deleted]

Is this still happening? I've got a whole ranking prepared and everything.
