24. "If I Could Make A Living" - Clay Walker How does anyone who likes country music not like this song?!? RIGHT? My thoughts exactly. I could 100% understand somebody hating it just because they hate all country music and this is pretty "country". But I cannot imagine being a country fan who listens to this and thinks, "Well that does nothing for me...."

I think the excuse I've heard before is Clay sounds too twangy or something to that effect. I'll take some good 'ol twang any day!

The one Faith Hill song I did tank. "It Matters To Me" is pretty awful and I'm glad to see some others don't like it, either.

It Matters To Me and If I Could Make A Living are just too basic, but one is more country than other so it is higher than the other to me. Also bboat11 if that's your definition of catchy male country songs...I think there are plenty of them in the 90s?

28. "Three Chords And The Truth" - Sara Evans
I am... legitimately confused, lol. I really didn't expect this to continue her winning streak, but not even a top 20 finish for this stone cold country classic? Wow, just wow. Her fanbase has always propped this one up pretty highly despite it not being a hit, so I'm pretty shocked by so many tanks. I guess some of y'all were just tired of her winning... #staymadI love Sara but the debut album doesn’t stack up with the rest of this list for me!

Me: "Wow why did everyone tank this immaculate Sara Evans stone cold country classic?!" Tankers: "It's okay, just not one I revisit a lot and the list is quite strong!" Clay Walker is tanked soon after but not even as badlySame ppl: "What the actual FUCK how and why does anyone HATE this song I'm so confused because it's a stone cold country classic"

"Spilled Perfume" is one of my all-time favorite Pam Tillis songs :( Her vocal is on fire here, especially when she launches into that E5 in the bridge!!!! I gave serious side eye to every single list that rolled in that helped tank this one out of the top 15...

I know "What Hurts the Most" is like one of the seven Rascal Flatts songs LBTrocks likes but it's so weird seeing him rank a Rascal Flatts song way higher than me, lol.

"Take Me As I Am" is a catchy jam that has continued to grow on me every time I have heard it!! At first I thought it was kinda like a lower tier single than the bigger hits from the album, "Wild One" and "Piece of My Heart", but it has been growing on me quite a lot in recent years while those other ones have started to wear on me due to overplay.

Time for our next honoree, since we're at the top 20! This time it is Trisha Yearwood's "She's In Love With The Boy". This song was deemed Pulse's Favorite Trisha Yearwood Song when it won her singles rankdown 2 and a half years ago. That being the case, there was very little doubt that it would win her debut album rankdown when it happened a couple months ago!
Bonus: "She's In Love With The Boy" - Trisha Yearwood
Finished at #1 in the: Trisha Yearwood: Trisha Yearwood album rankdown (Host: someguy)

I feel like I messed up when doing my ranking for this because I should have had "Love Without End, Amen" a lot higher.

"Love Without End, Amen" is one of the most iconic country songs of all time, regardless of artist or decade! With that ubiquity, however, has come a TON of overplay through the years. That undoubtedly contributed to it almost losing the album rankdown to "I've Come To Expect It From You", which is iconic in its own right but is not a genre-defining hit. However, that didn't stop it from being a strong top 20 contender here, staying top 20 for nearly the entire submission process!

"Wild One" is no doubt one of the most widely known and heavily played female country hits of the '90s. This song has been EVERYWHERE for most of my life... That overplay always makes it really hard for me to rank this song... But I am glad to see it at least make the top 20, because Faith is an artist who is always done dirty in these things.
Those who predicted that this one and "Take Me As I Am" would finish really close to each other were correct, as only 3 positions and about 10 points separated them from each other!!
