macattack's 2020 1st Half Rankdown (CANCELLED, SEE LAST POST

[macattack]

I figured I might as well throw my hat in the ring when it comes to rankdowns, especially because I am considering doing a series of rankdowns and I want to see if this is something I really want to do lol. I have a heavy alternative/rock bent, but there are surprises hidden within. Without further ado, here's my Top 50 songs of January-June 2020. 

Rules:
1) Rank the songs listed below from #1 being your favorite and #50 being your least.
2) Private message me with your rankings by the deadline.
3) Please listen to each song. 
4) For simplicity's sake, I'm using the radio edits of certain songs if available, but you can rank either radio or the album version for those songs.
5) Deadline is currently set for July 16th.

And the list, in alphabetical order: 

#1. The Airborne Toxic Event - "Come On Out"

I'll definitely do this one. Lots of good songs here.

[wrip]

I see some songs and artists I like so I’ll try to do this!

[Deleted]

Yeah I might

[macattack]

Received two lists so far! Thanks to Daryl the Beryl and singingrulebritannia for submitting! 

[macattack]

I may extend the deadline by another week or two, as I would like to receive around 10 lists and there's only 3 so far including mine.

[Deleted]

[American Idiot]

I should be turning in my list later today or tomorrow.

I'd like to roll with at least 10 submissions so I'm pushing this back two weeks to the 14th of July.

Sorry for not paying enough attention to this lately. Being an "essential worker" is hard, yo. Received one more submission the other day.

Pushing this back to the 16th so this can end on a day where I can give this some personal attention.

Started this too early that Seether got left behind

Honestly, I feel like this got lost in the shuffle and I should've waited until the end of the year before making it.

I hit a rough patch in mid-July and have not been able to give this my full attention as well. I am going to cancel this rankdown and try again sometime in December, when I know I'll have a slow patch in January to give a rankdown proper attention especially with reveals. I apologize for the inconvenience.
