WOW, time has FLOWN by so far in 2020. It is already time once again for our next set of Country Rankdown winners!!!! This is basically every country song that has won a rankdown in the past 6 months, from mid December of 2019 until today, June 7, 2020. As per usual, EVERYONE is welcome to join, and in fact I would love to have as many people as possible join in, regardless of whether you consider yourself to be a country poster or not! If you don't dive into country music very often, but sometimes consider giving it more of a chance, this is always a perfect opportunity to do so!

Three days in, and we are already doing pretty well with submissions! The deadline is still 4 weeks away from today, so there is plenty of time to join, but please don't let it sneak up on you. The longer it takes to get these done, the less time we will have between this set and our NEXT set of BotB/RotB... (The 3rd set taking so long is partly why it felt like hardly any time at all passed before we started this 4th set... Lol) So I plan to do these rankdowns as scheduled with very minimal extensions.Participants so far:1. ClevelandRox2. tim3. bboat114. George Strait Junkie
Due: Wednesday, July 8

Time for another update, as we are now down to just TWO weeks left until the deadline!!!! Remember, I am hoping not to extend this at all so we can get it out of the way before some of the other bigger year-end rankdowns are due this summer. 90% of the participants always do a significant amount of the country rankdowns anyway, so they already know the majority of these songs, lol. Participants so far:1. ClevelandRox 2. tim 3. bboat11 4. George Strait Junkie
Due: Wednesday, July 8

The middle songs are so hard to rank because they are all kinda there...Very nondescript background music.

So I kinda got bogged down trying to get George Strait's albums and Faith Hill's album tracks off the ground, and neglected to give any reminders at all about this one in the 2 weeks leading up to its deadline... However, y'all have really come through!!!!! SEVEN of you came through at the last minute with no reminders whatsoever, almost tripling the participation since the last reminder Due to the lack of reminders, I am going to extend this a few days. The new deadline will be this Sunday, July 12th!!!! Also, if you want to participate in RotB, we will keep the deadline for that one the same So get that one done soon too if you haven't yet! Participants so far:1. ClevelandRox 2. tim 3. bboat11 4. George Strait Junkie 5. someguy 6. Darkest Hour 7. dgarcia3377 8. castleoblivion26 9. Troublemaker 10. kamala 2024 truther 11. fearlessarrow

I don’t think Sara can win, but I think her Christmas song does the best of the Christmas songs (maybe #42?), and her other song finishes Top 30.
I think “Mine All Mine” lands somewhere in the Top 20, but before the Top 10.

1. What is going to be #1? From A Table Away?
2. What is going to be #52? Rockin’ Christmas Medley because it is generic Christmas song.
3. Which songs will be in the top 5? I Didn’t Know My Own Strength, Kerosene, Walkaway Joe, Something Worth Leaving Behind
4. Which songs will be in the bottom 5? Christmas Cookies, Leave The Night On, The Season For Romance, A Pam Tillis song (not The River And The Highway though)
5. Which songs will be the most polarizing? What Hurts The Most
6. Which songs will be the least polarizing? When It Rains It Pours
7. Sara Evans won the last THREE Best of the Best rankdowns with "A Real Fine Place To Start", "A Little Bit Stronger", and "Born To Fly". This time, she has two songs: "Three Chords And The Truth", and "At Christmas". Where will each of them finish? Does she have a shot of winning this thing yet again? Three Chords and the Truth could be top 10 bound? At Christmas will fall short of escaping bottom 10.
8. Which "The" song will do best? Worst? ("The Bones", "The Gambler", "The Matador", "The Stranger") The Matador for the best. The Bones for the worst.
9. SHeDAISY's "Mine All Mine" was just a 5-week #1 hit on castleoblivion26 's weekly Pulse Country Top 40 chart! How will it do here??? 16~20
10. Which will do better: The Judds "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days", or Wynonna's "I Saw The Light"? Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days
12. Faith Hill's debut album finished in a tie between "Take Me As I Am" and "Wild One". Which one will do better here? What will the difference between them be? Really not sure lol. My guess would be Wild One, but not so far from each other.
13. Which Christmas song will do best? (George's "Christmas Cookies", Sara's "At Christmas", Lee Ann's "The Season For Romance", or Pam's "Rockin' Christmas Medley") At Christmas

1. What is going to be #1? It came as a surprise to many of us that “From a Table Way” won the 2011 Year-End Rankdown so I have to assume it’s a likely contender here as well 2. What is going to be #52? “Rockin’ Christmas Medley” seems like a safe bet 3. Which songs will be in the top 5? “From a Table Away”, “Walkaway Joe”, “The Heart Won’t Lie”, “One Way Ticket (Because I Can)”, and hopefully one of George’s songs so let’s say “Write This Down”. I also think Wynonna’s “I Saw the Light” and Lorrie’s “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” will be vying for a top 5 showing as well. 4. Which songs will be in the bottom 5? I’d have to expect that some of the Christmas songs will be down in there including “Rockin’ Christmas Medley”, “The Season for Romance”, “At Christmas” and even George’s “Christmas Cookies”. That leaves a non-holiday song so probably Trisha’s “For the Last Time”. 5. Which songs will be the most polarizing? I think both of LAW’s songs “I Hope You Dance” and “Something Worth Leaving Behind” could be just as equally polarizing here as there’s always going to be those that tank IHYD just because. I’d add Sam Hunt’s “Leave the Light On” and Brother Osborne’s “It Ain’t My Fault” to the list as well. 6. Which songs will be the least polarizing? “From a Table Away”, “Even Though I’m Leaving”, and “If I Could Make a Living” 7. Sara Evans won the last THREE Best of the Best rankdowns. This time, she has two songs...Where will each of them finish? “At Christmas” in bottom 5 and “Three Chords and the Truth” in bottom 10. Does she have a shot of winning this thing yet again?8. Which "The" song will do best? “The Bones” Worst? "The Matador" 9. SHeDAISY's "Mine All Mine" was just a 5-week #1 hit on castleoblivion26 's weekly Pulse Country Top 40 chart! How will it do here??? Top 20 because Pulse likes to stan for SHeDAISY, but after that the competition gets too fierce 10. Which song will do better: The Judds or Wynonna’s? I’m going to give “I Saw the Light” the edge here 12. Faith Hill's debut album finished in a tie. Which one will do better here? “Take Me As I Am” What will the difference between them be? They’ll still likely both finish close to one another in the top 20 13. Which Christmas song will do best? George's "Christmas Cookies" or Sara's "At Christmas” but both still likely in the bottom 5 14. Any other thoughts/predictions? These rankdowns are always a crap show so I'm expecting nothing less this go around

1. What is going to be #1? Quite frankly, after her shocking performance in the 2011 rankdown, I wouldn't discredit Sunny Sweeney here2. What is going to be #52? Obviously a Christmas song, and probably Pam Tillis3. Which songs will be in the top 5? "From A Table Away," "Even Though I'm Leaving," "When It Rains It Pours," "The Bones," and hopefully "The Stranger" but this is a completely wild guess4. Which songs will be in the bottom 5? All the Christmas songs lol5. Which songs will be the most polarizing? Songs like "The Bones"6. Which songs will be the least polarizing? Songs like "Even Though I'm Leaving"7. Sara Evans won the last THREE Best of the Best rankdowns with "A Real Fine Place To Start", "A Little Bit Stronger", and "Born To Fly". This time, she has two songs: "Three Chords And The Truth", and "At Christmas". Where will each of them finish? "At Christmas" will be in the bottom 5-10 probably just because a lot of us hate the idea of Christmas in July, and "Three Chords and the Truth" will do much better, but probably just Top 20-30 Does she have a shot of winning this thing yet again? No8. Which "The" song will do best? "The Bones" Worst? Trisha Yearwood always seems to do subpar in these compared to the album rankdowns so I'm gonna go on a limb and say "The Matador"9. SHeDAISY's "Mine All Mine" was just a 5-week #1 hit on castleoblivion26 's weekly Pulse Country Top 40 chart! How will it do here??? Probably in the Top 20 then. I wouldn't know, I haven't been doing their album rankdowns oops 10. Which will do better: The Judds "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days", or Wynonna's "I Saw The Light"? The Judds12. Faith Hill's debut album finished in a tie between "Take Me As I Am" and "Wild One". Which one will do better here? "Take Me As I Am" What will the difference between them be? Probably not much13. Which Christmas song will do best? (George's "Christmas Cookies", Sara's "At Christmas", Lee Ann's "The Season For Romance", or Pam's "Rockin' Christmas Medley") Sara Evans lol14. Any other thoughts/predictions? and that's exactly what this is gonna be so bring it on, my popcorn's ready!

We are going to go ahead and kick off reveals in the traditional fashion, by honoring a song that won a rankdown in the eligibility period but was ultimately not included here because it had already been included before! Let's kick things off by honoring the winner of our last Best of the Best rankdown!!! Sara Evans' "Born To Fly" is often regarded as one of her signature songs, and it has proven that fact time and time again in rankdowns. It came in 3rd in her artist rankdown, and 1st in its album rankdown. That win is what allowed it to be included in our previous BotB rankdown, where it proved victorious once again, giving Sara her THIRD consecutive BotB victory!!!

In a BotB with like twice as many Christmas songs as any other, plus an off-the wall Trisha Yearwood Frank Sinatra covers project, Pam Tillis pulled off the shameful task of managing to be not only last place here, but last place for nearly the entire submission process!! "The Rockin' Christmas Medley" is a neat mashup, and Pam and Mel sound good together. But unfortunately Pam's Christmas album is quite weak, especially in the production department, to where the winner from that project just sounds really cheap and out of place on this list... Everybody put this in their bottom half, and it was the least polarizing song by a substantial margin!
