Okay, so, I have been waiting on two people to submit, so that's why reveals didn't start tonight. Reveals are absolutely, 100% starting tomorrow night, however. Since I need to work on a couple of things things hours ahead of time, tomorrow afternoon is looking like the final deadline/"last call".
If you haven't submitted and have been putting it off until now, this is the time to submit.

Alright, everyone, it's finally here: It's "last call" time. If you are going to submit, I am beginning reveals tonight, so you need to do so very soon.

It's just like me to be fashionably late, but I have good news: We're closed, and with over 20 rankings, no less!
I'm going to need a little bit of time to get everything set up (perhaps until tomorrow, I'm doing a LOT more than I usually do for rankdowns), but, in the meantime, let's do something I've never done for a Journey (or any rankdown, really)...
A couple of fun stats to consider:
- There are the same amount of unique #1s as unique #40s: 12. - Three songs have #1s AND #40s. - Sixteen songs spent time in the top ten, while eighteen songs spent time in the bottom ten. - Six songs spent time at #1, compared to just three songs that spent time at #40. - Five songs have more than one #1, while only three songs have more than one #40. - Two songs have almost 10 #40s between them. One of them isn't in the bottom two. - Two songs have no top tens, and neither are in the bottom five.

Honestly, this wouldn't be my first Hilary choice, but my first Hilary choice was already picked and did pretty damn well in its RD, so "With Love", it is.
This album kind of rules.

I probably should have went on ahead and went with my other favorite song from the album here, especially if this is my last Pulse personal RD, but I thought it would be cool to give one of the lesser known songs on Return to Cookie Mountain a chance.
It did not end well.

this sadly did not bring the blues as hard as its title implied

I doubt it will surprise most of you to see this one go out first among the group of songs in the last chapter. I'll forever have a soft spot for it, though.
My condolences, anthony11554.

I ranked "Flowing" top half in 2000 Alternative, so you know my tanking here is not because I didn't like it

Flowing is fine, but pretty much every other song in this rankdown is more than merely just "fine" imo

I won't lie to you, this is probably the only pick that I made that I regret even a little bit. I wish I had swapped this out with another song on one of my other Journey RDs. I don't regret the pick in terms of its quality, though. It's one of my favorite Kurt Vile songs.

I loved this song back when it was first introduced to me, but I feel like this song continues to just grow and grow in my estimation. The riffs in this song are otherworldly, and the (roughly) last minute has some of my favorite guitar work in a long time.

It was so obvious this would happen the moment you said this song was going to be in the rankdown
at least the list was good enough that I didn't have to rank it top 10, and it escaped bottom 5
