"Mad World" is incredible and deserved Top 5, sad it just missed out.
I'm thinking this could be between "Already Gone" or "Battlefield" for #1, though I wouldn't be upset to see "No Surprise" take it

The Kelly/Kellie songs dominated our top two throughout this submission process.
"Battlefield" briefly was a #1 contender near the beginning as well.

The top 3 was perfect! I prefer Jordin to Pickler, but Best Days of Your Life is Pickler's best song versus Battlefield being just another great one of Jordin's for me--so I'm okay with Jordin going 3rd. Still, "Already Gone" is just so gorgeous, nothing else stood a chance.

Just curious, how do you determine which songs are going to be included for these rankdowns? Has this been explained in the past?

bigd79I'm including all the songs that made it onto the Hot 100 or the Bubbling Under charts. I'm going in order from the beginning to end in sets of 20. The bonuses did not make either of those charts, but have been certified at least GOLD under the RIAA! (We had lots of performances make the cut from seasons 6-9.) I find it really cool to see so many Idol contestants throughout the many seasons find at least a little bit of success!!

#21 - You Are So Beautiful - Danny Gokey
Total Points: 103 Bubbling Under: #25
bigd79 - #10 ClevelandRox - #14 dee12 - #17 fireflies - #20 toomuchboy - #21 castleoblivion26 - #21
In a mix of many Kris and Adam performances, one from our 3rd-place finisher sneaks its way in. It's a beautiful ballad but will mark the only song to finish with over 100 points. Congrats to toomuchboy and castleoblivion26 for starting us out with perfect rankings!

great start. I cannot stand Danny Gokey's voice, nor his personality. Plus I hate "You Are So Beautiful" as I find it to be such a dull song. Good riddance. "The Tracks Of My Tears" is rather overrated in my opinion, another song I just don't care for.

Miley Cyrus is a huge star now. Her career really started with her character on the Disney Channel hit show, Hannah Montana. She had a bunch of hits from the tv show, including this one. I love the David Cook reference in this scene!

#18 - Slow Ride - Adam Lambert & Allison Iraheta
Total Points: 87 Bubbling Under: #5
ClevelandRox - #7 castleoblivion26 - #10 fireflies - #15 bigd79 - #15 toomuchboy - #19 dee12 - #21
This was a pretty good duet. Both Adam and Allison meshed well together. Usually, Idol had at least one person that rocked the pink or red hair. Allison was that person for season 8. Here is Allison's audition clip!

"Slow Ride" deserved better here for sure. I loved the chemistry between Adam and Allison. Too bad they never did a proper duet on either of their albums.

Danny started out his career in the country genre. Soon after, he very successfully transitioned into the Christian genre. This is one of his biggest hits. I really enjoyed the music video! Here is Danny's audition clip!

I enjoyed this light-hearted pop song. It's very catchy and seems like it would fit just fine within a summer playlist.
