Rob Crosby - She's a Natural (original studio recording isn't on streaming)

...and all four of Garth's songs ("The Thunder Rolls", "Unanswered Prayers", "Two of a Kind, Workin' on a Full House", and "Rodeo"); too lazy to dig those up as you'll only be able to find karaoke covers online. ;)

---

Although this list isn't numbered, I'll do the counting for you: there are a total of 122 songs!. I tried to cap it at 120, but I found a few inconsistencies between one of my playlists and my spreadsheet. I also have a collection of bonus songs that almost made the rankdown that I plan on mentioning and some of these cuts were quite painful if you ask me.

If you're unfamiliar with how rankdowns go, rank these songs from #1 (your favorite) to #122 (your least favorite) and PM them to me (@/cjashby75) by the deadline, which is malleable for the time being on JUNE 21. Given how huge this list is, there will more than likely be an extension, but I'll do this in a gradual fashion. I really hope y'all can find enough time to do this...

P.S. Feel free to send in an additional list of extra country songs from 1991 (charted or not) if you'd like.

Oh...1991

[Cody Wants Out...]

Holy cow! It's been nearly a month since I've opened this for submissions? :o
Well, at the risk of instilling panic, I'll keep the deadline at JUNE 21 for now, even though we already have a submission from tim.
I really hope you guys can give this a try; you might be able to find some nice surprises in here. :)

In light of recent events, I obviously wasn't able to meet my own deadline. :(
To make up for it, let's set a new deadline for SEPTEMBER 25 (with a fair amount of flexibility, of course), and hopefully, I will have been caught up by then. ;)
I still have a list from tim and lists from someguy and kw9461 will join the pool soon.

I'll definitely get this done! I need a few weeks to recuperate after 2004-2006 Hidden Gems, because this one is just as large and filled with stuff I don't know as that one was, but I'll shift my attention to this one sometime in September!! :)

[castleoblivion26]

I definitely plan to get a list in but have been struggling to get rankdowns done in general so I may not get my list in until closer to the due date

[Cody Wants Out...]

Hi everyone. Just a friendly reminder for all of us (myself included) that this is still happening.

Time's been moving at a strange rate lately, but I don't see any harm keeping with the current deadline of OCTOBER 9.

I have no idea if/when this is due, but I've run out of rankdowns to do and am starting on this one soon. 😂

Any updates on this Cody Wants Out...?

[ClevelandRox]

I was 7-8 thru 1991, and checking out the list, if a song hasn't received recurrent airplay, it's gonna be brand new to me. There's a total of 36 songs I recognize. 😬

I also hope the Dec 4th date sticks because I don't want to have forgotten what all the songs sounded like if the reveals are moved to eg: March. 😂 Stick to it, Cody! 👍

How about January?

I didn't realize how quickly this month has flown with only four days left in November after today. I'll push back the deadline by about two weeks to December 18 for now; I know this is amongst a slew of Christmas rankdowns, but I can always make this a soft deadline. I actually hope to begin revealing shortly after Christmas, so I have zero problems if no one can meet this date as I can most likely accept lists until the weekend after Christmas. I think I'll end up using December 18 as a "how are we doing?" type of update instead of an official deadline.

P.S. Obviously, I won't be able to reveal all 120+ songs before the New Year which is why I asked about January?

I personally think January is a much more realistic timeframe at this point. Given how many times this has been pushed back already there's been very little incentive for anyone to devote time to this, so considering we're entering the holidays with a 2020 Year-End Rankdown on the horizon it just makes sense to push this one back to 2021.

Either way, I hope we're at least halfway through the rankdown before the one year anniversary on March 16, 2021!

I'm not sure where the deadline for 2020 is gonna land, but I'd think mid or late January works. At this point I think it's best to find a solid deadline and stick to it, otherwise there's no incentive for anyone to commit and invest their time.

[Cody Wants Out...]

I've quietly been hemming and hawing over this (on top of recovering from a fever not too long ago! ), but I will stick with January 29 as the deadline for this sucker...AND THAT'S FINAL!

I will also give myself a swift and hard kick in the rump to get my own list completed before the Christmas vibes set in.

[gardyfan]

You can add me to the tags so i remember to do this.

[Cody Wants Out...]

Hi everyone! :)

Since the Holidays are starting to wind down (barely), I should do reminders of this monster more often, right? ;)

I still plan on sticking with JANUARY 29 as our final deadline; so I can't really allow for much wiggle room after that. I'd like to get the ball rolling on reveals in February, which will probably be here before you know it!

Hope y'all can still make it; there's some really cool stuff here!

There's no incentive for anyone to commit and invest their time.

I have already given multiple reminders in the Official Country Rankdown thread over the last few months:

Jul 14, 2020 16:13:22 GMT -5 bboat11 said:

Hello everybody! As you are aware, I made rules for the Country rankdown queue several months ago to try to help things move faster. I have given a bit of a grace period before I started adamantly enforcing them, but I am letting you know that the enforcement is beginning!

As of today, all rankdown ideas that have been on the queue for longer than 6 months have been removed, with just a couple exceptions. The first exception is that if a host spoke recently to me or others about starting their rankdown, I kept it there (so, .indulgecountry with the Kellie Pickler rankdown for example, or myself with the Terri Clark album series). The other exception is that I did not do anything with the year-end rankdowns (for now). Those are a bit more in demand, so I want to try to reach a more diplomatic solution than just taking them away, lol. But they cannot continue to sit there and not happen, so decisions will be made soon with regards to them  (Hosts who are making active progress towards finishing their year-ends, like sabre14 , have nothing to worry about! It is the years that have been sitting there unhosted for 3+ years that will be seeing some changes soon).

Sept 28, 2020 0:40:56 GMT -5 bboat11 said:

On top of that, there are several rankdowns in our queue that are in a constant state of being extended but then never happening. Tanya Tucker and 1991 Country, for example, have been on the queue for ALMOST THIS ENTIRE YEAR.

[Lots of unnecessary statistics]

It should be perfectly common sense, so I hate that I have to ask... If you cannot commit to hosting a rankdown, do not open a rankdown. When rankdowns are actively hosted, they are predictable and easy to plan around. For example, you know that the monthly new releases rankdowns are going to happen the last week of the month, like clockwork, and the participants can plan to do them accordingly, and other hosts can plan around them as needed. But a rankdown like 1991 is not at all predictable. It is a huge, intimidating rankdown, that is going to land wherever the heck it wants to on the schedule because the host is stretched too thin and keeps extending it, and other hosts cannot plan around it because they have no idea when it will actually close, nor can participants prioritize when to work on it because they have no idea how concrete the deadline is... So then you end up with people who cannot work on a newer rankdown, because they are too busy being bogged down by rankdowns that should have been cleared out of the way months ago.

I don't say all this to throw certain hosts under the bus, but I do want to get the point across that things will go MUCH smoother if hosts only open what they can handle. An extension of a week or two is fine! But if you set a deadline, you need to somewhat commit to it, because if you don't, you will be f**king things up later for hosts who are planning around the deadline you told us you would be using.

If you only open what you can truly commit to hosting, and take care of those rankdowns expeditiously, things will be much better for all of us.

Additionally, I had a nice private conversation with Cody nearly 6 months ago telling him this needed to start soon or changes would be made:

Jul 14, 2020 15:44:09 GMT -5 bboat11 said:

Hello! I am just sending you a message to talk about rankdowns. As you know, I created rules to help the queue move more quickly a few months ago. I have given a pretty lengthy grace period (it has been like 8 or 9 months since I made that rule, lol) and I am now going to start enforcing it. I am letting you know personally, because you have had several rankdowns on the queue for awhile now.

---

However, fyi I have not done anything with the year-end rankdowns yet! I know you are passionate about hosting those, and they are also a bit more of an in-demand rankdown that people will notice immediately if they are no longer on the queue. We have a bit of a sticky situation with the '90s year-end rankdowns, in that you want to host them, but you also have been going so slowly that everybody is left sitting around for months at a time waiting for them to actually happen. That needs to change. I am guessing that you are intending to host 1995 after 1991, but I am honestly worried that if we fast forward a year from now 1995 will have still not happened. And then will we have finished 1990 two years from now? Meanwhile, tim is waiting until 1995 is finished before he can start 1996.

I am going to propose that you consider giving 1995 to tim. That will free you up to focus on continuing 1991 without that pressure to also finish 1995 asap. If that were to happen, we would potentially be done with the entirety of the '90s by the time you finish 1990! Whereas if things keep going like they are, we could be sitting here a year from now and still have 1995, 1996, and 1990 to do... Of course it is totally up to you. But we do need to find a solution so that these rankdowns do not keep sitting on the queue any longer.

---

Also, not to overwhelm you, but Tanya Tucker and 1991 Country are both technically eligible to be declared "abandoned" based on Rule 2. Because they have been open for more than 3 months with no sign of starting, and no host activity for well over a month. I am not going to make a big deal out of that yet, because I know you have had a lot going on, and life is crazy and weird for so many of us right now... But if you would be able to give them new deadlines soon at the very least, that would be great

I hope all is well! If you have any questions, let me know

He didn't go for the option of passing 1995 along to Tim, but instead he responded saying that he planned to relaunch this soon, and have it wrapped up in time to launch 1995 by Halloween. Meaning nearly three months after he promised me this would be finished, it still hasn't started.

---

I warned that this needed to start soon back in JULY, and things have not changed. At that point the rankdown was nearly 6 months old... Now it is nearly a year old. Not only has it not happened yet, but the host hasn't even done his own list! And despite the optimism that this will be the "final" deadline, I can just about promise you it is not going to get done in January, because he also still has a 3-month overdue Lady A album to reveal as well.

At this point, this rankdown has been declared "Abandoned". Rule 2 specifies that a rankdown can be declared abandoned if it is open for 3 months without starting. In this case, I gave Cody nearly a YEAR of grace! But the grace period has ended, and changes are being made.

Here is the announcement I just posted in the Official Country Rankdown thread:

• As of right now, tim will be taking over ALL of the remaining 1990s year-end rankdowns, including 1991. Those rankdowns have been on the queue for 3-4 years now. 1991 Country has been open for nearly 11 months now, despite me warning that it needed to start soon back in July. To the four people who have already submitted for 1991, look to tim for more direction about what happens next. He will be revamping and relaunching that rankdown eventually once he has had a chance to plan how he wants to do the rest of these '90s year-ends. Cody no longer has any claim to the '90s year-ends, so there will be no reason for anyone else to work on the existing 1991 rankdown at this point in time.

I hate to disrupt the rankdown process like that, but it is VERY clear that this is a change that has needed to be made.

Thanks for your cooperation everyone! Like I said, look to tim for direction about what happens next

Having grown up with ‘90s country, I can tell you that each and every one of these songs are intertwined with most if not all of my childhood memories. Some good...some bad...but you can’t have happiness without sadness and therein lies why I have such a deep appreciation for this time period in country music.

I look forward to taking on these last few ‘90s rankdowns and giving them their due diligence. I do want to thank Cody Wants Out... for jumpstarting these and I appreciate his enthusiasm for them. For anyone that has already submitted for the 1991 year-end rankdown, I’ll be reaching out to you and giving everyone additional details soon!
