1) PM me (Daryl the Beryl ) the top 100 Triple A songs of 2020, all ranked to your preference. (e.g. if you like a song the most, rank it the highest and vice versa). If you do not send your ranking to me, your ranking will not be acknowledged.
2) The points a song has will be totaled up based on an inverse point system. So if you rank a song #100, it gets 1 point, and if you rank a song #1, it gets 100 points. All the points from the participants will be totaled up.
3) The deadline is currently on January 29, 2021, 10PM Eastern Time.
4) ALL songs must be ranked.
5) To avoid posting with duplicate lines when you PM me, click BBCode below the text box before pasting your list.
6) All your rankings will be posted when I post a song in this thread.
7) You are allowed to make changes to your rankings, as long as you do so before the deadline. Any changes that are made after the deadline will not be counted.
8) Please try to make the effort to listen to every song in full.
9) Do not remove the "The" in front of artist names, so please input "The Killers", not "Killers", "The Lone Bellow", not "Lone Bellow", "The War and Treaty", not "War and Treaty", etc.

Spotify playlist, courtesy of myself. Note: I have attached the radio edits/versions of songs wherever possible, as some people complain of long track lengths, or/and if a different version of a song was pushed to radio. You are allowed to rank either the radio version or edit, or the original version of the track - whichever is the version you prefer.
Spotify playlist minus the songs on the alt rankdown + Running Up That Hill since we ranked it in alt last year.
