This was waaay harder to rank than I expected. The top two and bottom two were obvious, and everything else was a struggle, close, changed a lot, etc.

While I don't think either of my Top 2 songs will win, I'm hoping that they at least make it into the Top 5. Something interesting about this album in particular is how much my opinion has changed on certain songs. If this rankdown was happening in 2012, my rankings would be significantly different than they are now. Some of the album has aged like milk.

The #1 was easy for me, but the top 10 was true torture.

This is a really excellent album overall. I think my bottom 3 are the only tracks I never seek out.

Submissions are officially closed! The first (small) set will be up in about an hour! Screw that. Why reveal just 3 songs instead of doing a full set tomorrow?

Welcome to the 'Stronger' Rankdown! Are you ready for the results? 34 participants but only one winner... kinda But first: Pre-reveals questions:1. What song do you think will win? 2. What song do you think will be #18? 3. Which song do you think will have the highest and which song the lowest standard deviation? 4. Which single do you expect to be eliminated first and which last? [Mr. Know It All, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You), Dark Side, Don't You Wanna Stay] 5. Which album track do you expect to do best? 6. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? 7. Which song will have the most #18 ranks? 8. Any other thoughts/predictions?

Which song will have the most #18 ranks? 8. Any other thoughts/predictions? 1. This is kind of hard to say...I see Let Me Down having a fighting chance even if it's not my personal preference. I could also see Stronger winning, but again, it wouldn't be my first choice. 2. If it's anything but Einstein we are going to have a problem. 3. Highest-You Love Me Lowest-maybe Dark Side? 4. First will probably be Dark Side (unfortunately) the last will probably be Stronger but I think Mr. Know It All miiiiiiight pull through (hopefully). 5. Let Me Down or maybe Honestly but probably Let Me Down. 6. Let Me Down. 7. Einstein or You Can't Win. 8. Not necessarily in this order, but I think the Top 10 will consist of MKIA, WDKY, DS, Honestly, YLM, DYWS, IFY, LMD, TWIO and Alone.

1. What song do you think will win? It'll be between "Stronger" and "Dark Side" 2. What song do you think will be #18? "Don't Be a Girl About It" 3. Which song do you think will have the highest and which song the lowest standard deviation? Highest: "You Can't Win" | Lowest: "Why Don't You Try" 4. Which single do you expect to be eliminated first and which last? [Mr. Know It All, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You), Dark Side, Don't You Wanna Stay] DYWS will go out first, and Stronger vs. Dark Side will fight for #1. I think MKIA will be top 5. 5. Which album track do you expect to do best? "The War Is Over" @ #3. Could also see it being "Let Me Down." 6. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? "Dark Side" 7. Which song will have the most #18 ranks? "Don't Be a Girl About It" 8. Any other thoughts/predictions? I hope the beautiful "Breaking Your Own Heart" does well here! #underrated

1. What song do you think will win? "Dark Side" but I wouldn't be completely surprised if an album track manages to snatch the win.
2. What song do you think will be #18? "Don't Be A Girl About It" needs to be #18.
3. Which song do you think will have the highest and which song the lowest standard deviation? Highest: "Einstein" Lowest: please let it be "Don't Be A Girl About It"
4. Which single do you expect to be eliminated first and which last? [Mr. Know It All, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You), Dark Side, Don't You Wanna Stay] First: "Don't You Wanna Stay" (then "Mr. Know It All" and "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You") in that order) Last: "Dark Side"
5. Which album track do you expect to do best? "Let Me Down"
6. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? hmm "Dark Side" but I could see this being "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)"
7. Which song will have the most #18 ranks? "Don't Be A Girl About It"
8. Any other thoughts/predictions? This era was full of missed single opportunities - the singles were solid themselves but there were more gems besides those. I hadn't returned to this album in a while so coming back to it was kind of like a nice re-appreciation for this album.

“Einstein” gets way too much hate here. The lyrics are a little dumb, but it’s a bop. “Don’t Be a Girl about It” and “The Sun Will Rise” are worse by far to me.

1. What song do you think will win? "Stronger." 2. What song do you think will be #18? "Einstein." But possibly "The Sun Will Rise." 3. Which song do you think will have the highest and which song the lowest standard deviation? Highest: Honestly, Don't Be a Girl About It, Dark Side, possibly DYWS since it's country. Lowest: Stronger, Einstein, The Sun Will Rise, 4. Which single do you expect to be eliminated first and which last? [Mr. Know It All, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You), Dark Side, Don't You Wanna Stay] Dark Side first, Stronger last. 5. Which album track do you expect to do best? Let Me Down. Although I remember very vocal love for Honestly and You Love Me over the years, so I wouldn't be surprised if either of those lasted the longest either. 6. Which song will have the most #1 ranks? "Stronger." 7. Which song will have the most #18 ranks? "Einstein."

DBAGAI is overhated (bUt iT's pRoBlEmAtIc... - spare me) but I wholeheartedly expect it to exit first and Einstein better not be far behind.
