I love Brothers Osborne, but this is the one single I didn't take to. :/

"If You Can Do Anything Else" is one of the few George Strait hits that did not manage to go #1 on the charts, and always manages to feel like one of his more forgotten hits to me. It has been nice seeing it get some love with the album rankdown, and then making it further in this rankdown than the majority of his songs tend to do!! It is a super catchy jam.

"Every Girl In This Town" is a very nice comeback for Trisha. This song has such a great melody and performance. I have not even slightly begun to get tired of it yet ![:love:](http://i.imgur.com/2smy76v.gif) This should have been a top 20 contender, imo.

It's one of the downsides of these types of rankdowns; a lot of these songs have been commented on several times by now ![:giggle:](//storage.proboards.com/1258812/images/KYziZwTotWGtjvzyvGqr.gif) But yeah, I am trying to hurry a bit too, because I've taken so long already the past week!

I tanked "Why They Call It Falling" in its album rankdown, but it grew on me a ton until the point it almost made my top half!

I present to you the Lorrie Morgan of this rankdown! ![:dead:](http://ruadventures.com/forum/Smileys/animated/smiley_resurrect_grave.gif) Lee Ann Womack's "Why They Call It Falling" was a STRONG contender at first. It was a top 5 contender by the end of the first half....and then it suddenly got tanked out of the top 15, then top 20, and barely snuck out of the top half with our final list ![:dead:](http://ruadventures.com/forum/Smileys/animated/smiley_resurrect_grave.gif)

I am surprised “I Wish I Were The Rain” is still here. While I am not complaining, I think it’s gone before we hit Top 20.

"Why They Call It Falling" being here instead of "Ashes by Now" is still tragic. I'm glad it missed the top half for that reason alone.

Pam Tillis may have done horribly in this Revenge of the Best so far, but she has not always done badly in these rankdowns! In fact, her signature hit "Maybe It Was Memphis" actually was our primary #1 contender for the previous Best of the Best rankdown!!!! It ended up getting passed by Sara's "Born To Fly" near the end of submissions, but was still able to hold onto a very strong #2 finish!! ![](https://i.imgur.com/S9a6CDB.png)
Bonus: "Maybe It Was Memphis" - Pam Tillis
Finished at #2 in the: Best of the Best - Pt. III rankdown (Host: bboat11)

"The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia" is a STRONG rankdown contender!!!! It has yet to win a rankdown, but it managed to finish at #2 for Reba's entire career in her singles rankdown... That runner up victory allowed it to be in our first RotB rankdown, where it pulled off a super impressive #3 finish! There is no doubt in my mind that it would have been a strong #1 contender on her For My Broken Heart album....if it didn't also contain her rankdown behemoth "Is There Life Out There". So it got stuck at #2 yet again! Maybe one of these days it will find a way to get its proper revenge! ![](https://i.imgur.com/FPfWKRv.png)

"Live Until I Die" is a song that I am so glad to have discovered thanks to Clay's rankdown!! That fiddle is one of the damn catchiest things I've heard, and really works well with the chorus melody to create a song that gets stuck in your head. Should have been a top 10 contender, imo. I definitely underranked it (as did the rest of you).
