I wasn't tagged but came across this and submitted.
There is exactly 1 song on this terrific album I dislike, and then 1-2 that barely register. Everything else is terrific and a low ranking is not indicative of anything other than an album of depth.

2. What song(s) do you expect might come in last place? Two Rings Shy
3. What single (Automatic, Somethin' Bad, Little Red Wagon, Smokin' and Drinkin') do you expect to place highest? Lowest? Highest: Automatic Lowest: Smokin' and Drinkin'

1. What song(s) do you think could win the Platinum rankdown? Probably Automatic. 2. What song(s) do you expect might come in last place? Two Rings Shy or Babies Makin Babies 3. What single (Automatic, Somethin' Bad, Little Red Wagon, Smokin' and Drinkin') do you expect to place highest? Lowest? Automatic will be the highest and Smokin’ will be the lowest. 4. Do you think any of the singles will miss the top 5? I could see LRW & Smokin missing the top 5. 5. What album track do you think will be the highest and where will it land? I’m hoping Bathroom Sink will be the highest and score in the top 5. 6. Any other predictions/thoughts? Co Sign the argument that Bathroom Sink should’ve been a single. It’s a very strong song and miles better that the final 2 singles on the album. This was one of her best albums but one of her most mismanaged eras. After somethin bad they had tons of songs that were waiting to be hit songs (Bathroom Sink, Girls, Platinum, Pricilla), but they chose the weaker songs imo.

It's easily one of her worst singles to me, and it didn't hit #1. "Old S**t" does "Automatic" much better, but we'll get to that here lol. "Automatic" is the favorite here?!?! FFS you might as well not tag me in these results lol. The Miranda Lambert artist rankdown has Automatic above other three singles, plus singles bias is a thing, so... Oh ok, looking at that at least it isn't top 10. I do see my Miranda faves differ from others, though.

It's one of her most popular hit songs. Tbh I had no idea. It's easily one of her worst singles to me, and it didn't hit #1. Most of her singles don't, and it was still the biggest hit from the album at radio.

1. What song(s) do you think could win the Platinum rankdown? Platinum, Little Red Wagon, Holding on to You. 2. What song(s) do you expect might come in last place? All Thats Left 3. What single (Automatic, Somethin' Bad, Little Red Wagon, Smokin' and Drinkin') do you expect to place highest? Automatic Lowest? Smokin' and Drinkin' 4. Do you think any of the singles will miss the top 5? I think Smokin' and Drinkin' may miss out on the top 5. 5. What album track do you think will be the highest and where will it land? Holding on to You 6. Any other predictions/thoughts? This is an album where I feel about 13 of the songs are close to equal and then about 3 that I skip over. Based on other peoples predictions, my tastes are WAY off though. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. I'm sure it will be dominated by singles, which sucks because this album is full of gems!

First to get chopped from Platinum is "Two Rings Shy," which fell well shy of finishing anything better than last place. It remained in last place pretty much the entire submission process. While it received only three last place ranks here, it had minimal fanfare overall and received a bottom 5 rank from nearly 2/3 of the participants. Still, it wasn't without its fans as we already experience some pretty lofty losses with someguy having his #2 knocked out right off the bad, plus a trio of additional top 5s. It has one of the more harsher and off-kilter production jobs of the record with a lot of banging and clanging in the instrumentation that likely made it less accessible for most. The clue comes from her previous album's "All Kinds of Kinds" which also referenced circus imagery in its opening verse (both mention acrobats and big tops, specifically), which always made me feel like this was a spin-off that followed from that song's creation. "You got girls that sing and dance, I hear one's an acrobat You got 'em swinging from the chandelier, well honey, I don't swing like that The main attraction's leaving, let the side show pay the rent Take this diamond back and you'll be two rings shy of the big top tent"

Dang, two spots shy of a perfect ranking . I just as easily could put this in last place myself as it was a tossup between the songs in my bottom 3.

All that's left is for this song to leave! "All That's Left," a Texas swing number that features The Time Jumpers, a band that at the time notably included Vince Gill. It's a sound not really touched on by Miranda Lambert despite being a Texan, but she's never one to shy away from experimentation, so she threw this fun little ditty onto Platinum. It wound up falling into the penultimate song with the final list that was received, though a couple other songs had flirted with that spot more throughout the submission process. Unfortunately for it, five last place ranks did it no favors, and could not be offset by the three top 5 ranks. "I'll keep the diamond on my finger and you'll keep all the bitter memories Leave the dishes, no more kisses, 'cause all that's left for you to do is leave"

11-14 are all separated by less than 10 points total and changed order frequently throughout the process. It was quite the nail-biter!

If anyone else has watched the new Netflix show The Woman in the House Across the Street From the Girl in the Window, you'd know that Kristen Bell's character has quite the hard time putting down the wine! "Hard Staying Sober" has a pretty sneaky yet irresistible melody that is classic country, but the song doesn't exactly pop or stand out too much on an album this stacked, so it fell towards the back of the pack. That steel guitar sure is pretty though. bboat11 loses his #2 here and a pair of others lose a top 5, while most posters lose something a bit lower on their list, as over half of us pegged this one below our top 10s. "It's hard to leave the house when all I think about Is how hard it might be to come back home I wait here and watch the rain when you come back for your things You'll get what you want and then you'll go"

Disappointed but not necessarily surprised that "Hard Staying Sober" exited already. That steel guitar certainly bumped this one up on my list by a few spots for sure.
