I'll go ahead and tackle the predictions just so we can say somebody did!!
What is going to be #1? Lmao "Red Dirt Road", by like 100 miles.
What will make up our top 5? RDR, "You Can't Take The Honky Tonk", "That's What She Gets", "She Was Born To Run", and I have no idea what else... Which single will do the best? worst? "Red Dirt Road" will be #1, and "That's What She Gets" will do the worst, but still be #3.
Which album track will do the best? I really think "She Was Born To Run" will do the best. It's hard to say though, as this album didn't really have too many album tracks that I couldn't live without.

"My Baby's Everything I Love" reminded me a lot of Martina's "My Babe" cover, lmao.

Each one of the songs to exit were also in my bottom 5 with “Good Day to Be Me” being the only exception. I already thought this album was a bit bloated to begin with, so I think had they trimmed it down to just 10 songs that each one of these could’ve been left off.
Now, hopefully my last remaining bottom 2 song will leave next!

I still continue to be perplexed that some of y'all prop up these awfully sung Kix Brooks songs taking up space in the same vicinity as Ronnie Dunn-led ones. It would be like if Reba McEntire started a duo with Priscilla Block... and some of y'all would probably still have the nerve to rank her songs above Reba's somehow. 🤡

Glad to see "She Was Born To Run" in the top 5 at least, and getting the vast majority of us to rank it in the top 6! I admittedly found this album to be surprisingly weak (bloated, as tim described it, works well), so nothing jumped out at me upon first listen, but on subsequent listens this one was by far the album track that held up the best for me. The chorus is repetitive, but everything else about this song slays, especially the electric guitars which sound very reminiscent of some of their other big hits of this time period. Wtf at "Till My Dyin' Day" being the highest album track though Kix's soft intro is one of the worst vocals I have ever heard, and doesn't get much better once the tempo kicks in... It is admittedly catchy in the chorus, but in a Jimmy Buffett "Cheeseburger In Paradise" kind of way rather than a biggest-missed-hit-opportunity-of-the-album kind of way Glad to see the singles be the top 3, as they deserve! Hopefully "That's What She Gets" will let Mary and Connie occupy the top 2!

Am I crazy, or didn't you tank this one to hell in their singles rankdown?

LBTrocks told me that he would've ranked "Red Dirt Road" last if he'd done this.

LBTrocks told me that he would've ranked "Red Dirt Road" last if he'd done this. That....might have actually been enough to cost it the victory "You Can't Take The Honky Tonk" ended up finishing much closer than I expected it to!! Thank goodness Flops is so unreliable!

Oh wow I love this album haha "I Used To Know This Song By Heart", "Caroline", "Memory Town", "When We Were Kings" and "Til My Dyin' Day" still get a lot of rotation from me.

This was supposed to be due yesterday but due to me starting a new position at work this week has proven to be a bit hectic and I haven't been able to devote enough time to Pulse so I am going to extend these albums until next Friday night! That means that these are now due on Friday Nov 5th!Hard Workin' Man DUE: Nov 5thCowboy Town DUE: Nov 5thHard Workin' Man Received: castleoblivion26 timKanenrá:kegardyfanbboat11someguyCowboy Town Received: castleoblivion26 timgardyfanbboat11Kanenrá:ke *needs to fix an issue with his list*

Just a reminder that this is due in 3 days. I will not be extending these any further as in order to do their Christmas album next month I need to finish these to give enough time between them. I will be revealing Hard Workin' Man this weekend. Cowboy Town will hopefully begin reveals either Sunday or Monday night. Hope to see a few get their list in. Cody Wants Out... where are you! LBTrocks any chance you can get a list in? taylor can I count on a list from you? .indulgecountry will you be sending in a list?Hard Workin' Man DUE: Nov 5thCowboy Town DUE: Nov 5thHard Workin' Man Received: castleoblivion26 timKanenrá:kegardyfanbboat11someguyCowboy Town Received: castleoblivion26 timgardyfanbboat11Kanenrá:ke *needs to fix an issue with his list*
