 (a few albums featured here)After the moderate success of my last personal rankdown, I thought that enough time had passed for me to start a new one! The theme of this list is songs I've been enjoying a lot this year, it doesn't really matter when they were released but I've been vibing with them all pretty hard recently.
Without further ado, the list!
AllttA - The Woods
Amber Run - I Found
American Football - The Summer Ends
The Avalanches - Subways
Ball Park Music - It’s Nice To Be Alive
Band of Horses - Ode To LRC
Bon Iver - For Emma
Bring Me The Horizon - Oh No
Carol Douglas - Doctor’s Orders
Chance The Rapper f/ Jamila Woods - Blessings
Clairo - Sofia
Danny Brown - Ain’t it Funny
The Decemberists - The Crane Wife 3
Duckwrth - MICHUUL.
EMBRZ f/ Meadowlark - Heartlines
FJK f/ (((O))) - Vibin’ Out
Fleetwood Mac - Landslide
Flight Facilities f/ Giselle - Crave You
Flume f/ Reo Cragun - Friends
Gang Of Youths - Magnolia
Hatchie - Not That Kind
Imogen Heap - Goodnight and Go
Injury Reserve - North Pole
Kanye West - Blood On The Leaves
Kendrick Lamar - untitled 08
Local H - All The Kids Are Right
Mac Miller - Blue World
Mura Masa f/ Bonzai - What If I Go? (Nighttime Version)
The National - This Is The Last Time
Panucci’s Pizza - Aesthetic? (More Like Ass-Pathetic)
Porter Robinson f/ Madeon - Shelter
Ruby Fields - Dinosaurs
The Shins - Young Pilgrims
Skegss - Road Trip
Skepta - Shutdown
Sufjan Stevens - Come On! Feel The Illinoise! Part 1 & 2
Tom Petty - I Won’t Back Down
Two Door Cinema Club - Undercover Martyn
Vancouver Sleep Clinic - Ayahuasca
Young Thug & Travis Scott f/ Quavo - pick up the phone
You guys probably don't need this anymore, but rank the songs from 1-40 and then send me (Beno ) a PM with your rankings.
Right now the deadline is set at August 17th, about 5 weeks from now. This isn't hard though, and I'm open to extensions.

Ok, the deadline has technically passed already, but my pretty busy upcoming schedule and the relative lack of lists I've received means I'll be extending this a bit You've got another 2 weeks, until the 3rd of September, to do this if you're interested. I'd like to ideally match my previous personal rankdown's total number participants in 14 if possible so hopefully this gives you enough time to give this list a try it if you're interested.

I lowkey forgot I was in Australia and the title might be misleading, so there's still 1 day until the deadline! I received three lists since the last tag so hopefully a few more people get their lists in before close

Ok, as far as I know I'm just waiting on one more list before I'm good to close, so if anyone else is intending to send lmk now, as once this last person sends I'm officially closing. In the meantime, how about a quick survey! What songs do you expect to make the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like.
Conversely, what do you think will land in the bottom 10? Try and guess the #40 as well
What songs will have the highest standard deviations?
There were two songs in particular with super low SDs, with one finishing relatively high and the other relatively low. What do you think these were?
How high did you rank your favourite first listen?
There were nine Australian artists featured in this rankdown (Ball Park Music, Flight Facilities, Flume, Gang Of Youths, Hatchie, Ruby Fields, Skegss, The Avalanches and Vancouver Sleep Clinic). Of these nine, who will do the best and who will do the worst?
Of the five "older" songs released before 2000 (The Summer Ends, Doctor's Orders, Landslide, All The Kids Are Right and I Won't Back Down), which will finish highest and which will finish lowest?
If there's any other comments you want to make, leave them here(:

Bon Iver, Chance, Clairo, Hatchie, Kanye, Kendrick, and Mac I'm pretty confident about. Also Fleetwood Mac. I would guess maaaaaybe Sufjan and Imogen make it.

I really don't know lol. Maybe duckwrth?
What songs will have the highest standard deviations?
Also have no idea for this one.

O.o
Ok I think the low song is Amber Run? And the high song I guess would be Kanye.
How high did you rank your favourite first listen?
My #2 is actually a first listen. My #7 too.

Hatchie would do the best lsmdkjdh

Two of these are in my bottom 10 and two are in my top 10 lol

1. I feel like I’m gonna be really off with this but I could see untitled 08, Landslide, Blue World, Ain’t It Funny, pick up the phone, Come On!, and maybe I Won’t Back Down as potential top ten/top twenties. Hoping for Blessings as well.
2. Gosh, I really don’t know what could be bottom ten considering this list was really strong and everyone seems to have different tastes. Maybe something like Oh No?
3. I could see Chance having a high SD considering his songs usually have a variety of support.
4. Not That Kind? I’m not sure haha
5. My highest first listens were my 2 and 4 👌
6. I could see like Hatchie or Skegss possibly.
7. Landslide seems the most likely to be high.
8. I know like 90% of these reveals are gonna hurt because I liked so many of these

What songs do you expect to make the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like.There are five songs that I would be surprised if they missed the top ten: "Ain't It Funny", "untitled 08", "Not That Kind", "The Summer Ends", and "Subways". "Landslide" SHOULD make it, but it wouldn't shock me if it missed, either. Let's round it out with "I Won't Back Down", "Undercover Martyn", "Blue World", and "Illinoise". There's one that I haven't mentioned that I really, REALLY hope makes the top ten, but I think it gets tanked out. As for the #1, I feel like it might be one of the songs not being predicted for the top ten, which probably means it didn't make the top ten at all.  My hunch is "The Summer Ends" wins. Conversely, what do you think will land in the bottom 10? Try and guess the #40 as wellAs always, predicting the bottom ten is way harder than the top ten. "Aesthetic?" feels like the most likely to be low, but I can't say for sure that it'll be #40. I might lose a high song fairly early, too. What songs will have the highest standard deviations?"Blessings" and "Ayahuasca" feel like fairly safe bets. "This Is The Last Time" is probably up there, because The National. Wouldn't surprise me if "Shutdown" has a high SD, too. There were two songs in particular with super low SDs, with one finishing relatively high and the other relatively low. What do you think these were?I'll say that the low SD near the bottom is "Aesthetic?", though that's probably wrong. I don't feel like anyone would rank Hatchie low, but I've been proven wrong with that before. How high did you rank your favourite first listen?-- #5. There's a couple of songs in my top ten that REALLY shouldn't be first listens, but they are. There were nine Australian artists featured in this rankdown (Ball Park Music, Flight Facilities, Flume, Gang Of Youths, Hatchie, Ruby Fields, Skegss, The Avalanches and Vancouver Sleep Clinic). Of these nine, who will do the best and who will do the worst?-- Hatchie's probably doing the best, but I can't rule out The Avalanches, ever. I have a hope for which one will do the worst, but it's more likely that Ball Park Music or Skegss did the worst. Of the five "older" songs released before 2000 (The Summer Ends, Doctor's Orders, Landslide, All The Kids Are Right and I Won't Back Down), which will finish highest and which will finish lowest?-- I predicted "The Summer Ends" to win, so that will probably be the highest, though it wouldn't surprise me at all if two of the options here are higher. I think "Doctor's Orders" will be lowest.

I kinda expected this one to be low tbh, I can absolutely see why someone wouldn't like the vocals or production here, and Reo Cragun is admittedly a bit of a dick here lmao. However, I think it all works really well, and sometimes it's nice to have a song this arrogant around lol

And just like last time, I'm the first to lose a top 10!
I feel like one of the running themes in this list is songs I was listening to a lot throughout quarantine, and nothing tops this in that regard. I absolutely love how lo-fi and raw this song is, and the intensity that John Panucci explodes at the end of the song with. 2020 has been a really shitty year for me, and I feel like I needed a song like this a lot.

yea...I knew Aesthetic was going to be low because of how unpolished and sparse it was, but I was fine with both of those aspects

This was the only song I didn't like on this list so naturally it was going to be my #40 - it speaks to the strength of the entire list though.

My hunch is "The Summer Ends" wins.
