I don't think that This is How Do it should've made the top 10 over I wish, Big Poppa, and Dear Mama.

15. "Scream" [54]: Sorry, I don't love this as much as a lot of other people do, it seems. I can definitely understand the appeal, though. I just prefer "You Are Not Alone". 14. "Carnival" [11]: I thought this would make the top 10. That's sad. This was definitely my favourite discovery. 13. "The Rhythm of the Night" [3]: You just can't go wrong with Eurodance, especially as iconic as this track. How sad that it didn't make the top ten (both on this rankdown and in the weekly Hot 100 charts. And I guess this is where we get the obvious joke out of the way about how Corona finally got their outbreak last year. 12. "Dear Mama" [14]: I've definitely grown to appreciate this one more. Tupac's flow with the lyrical message is truly something, despite gravey's misinterpretations of it. I'm more than ready to rank "California Love" very high for a year as competitive as 1996. 11. "Take A Bow" [7]: Of all the songs to miss to go out here, it just had to be one of Madonna's best? :( This might honestly be my favourite song from her, at this point. The production by Babyface is pretty much perfect. But, of course, as it is a slow ballad, you guys will never let it into the top ten. :sip2: I'm very surprised "This Is How We Do It" made the top ten, but I'm not complaining. Remaining ranks: 1, 2, 4, 8, 9, 17, 25, 29, 32, 35. As much as this last set of reveals hurt, I must say this is a very strong top ten, even though there are a couple songs that I would really prefer they did not win.

I don't mind if Madonna does a ballad but "Take a Bow" is too damn slow and boring. I dunno, maybe if I had grew up in the '90s, I would be a little more into it.
On a positive note, it looks like 6 songs in my Top 10 are in this Top 10 so I'm ready for some p-p-p-perfect rankings here.

I literally only have 1 top 10 left already..... At least it's my #1 and almost certainly a top 10 lock Oh wait I forgot I put my #10 that high. So I have...2. 1 10 14 18 20 23 27 32 36 40 As biased as these results have been, I do rate all the remaining songs 3.5/5 or 4/5, so we have a great group of songs left

...well, these reveals didn't go too well for me.
15 (25): One of my favourite '90s MJ songs! If '95 weren't as strong as it is, this'd be a lot higher!
14 (2): I just really love the vibe of this song.
13 (67): a decent jam, but GTA Radio overexposure strikes yet again.
12 (1): One of the best hip-hop songs of all time, period. Here's hoping "California Love" will do much better than this in the '96 rankdown (which I'm really excited for btw)
11 (33): A really good Madonna ballad that I think I overranked a bit.

Also, you could blame my work playlist for this but every time I see the song name "Rhythm of the Night", I think of the '80s DeBarge song with that name.

I can see either "Waterfalls", "Fantasy", or "Gangsta's Paradise" winning - three songs that are both nearly unanimously beloved and firmly ingrained in public consciousness.
Mark my words, this is going to be the likely top 3. 😉

Again, so happy to see this in the top 10 :) The further this went along, the more I was hoping it would be a shocker #1.
Great karaoke song btw :)

Yeah, I was expecting "Secret" to get some tankers. Love the song, personally, but this whole era for Madonna is rather divisive.
1998 is going to be an promising year for her, though.

Nice, those were my 2 lowest ranks remaining! I don't think either Kiss From A Rose or Secret are bad in any way, I just didn't quite click with them compared to other songs on this list

not how I would’ve broken the tie...Secret had FOUR #4 ranks & TIHWDI only TWO #4s...but I got a PPPPP out of it so I won’t complain too loudly
