if anyone has "Cold" in last, welcome to my banned list! Seriously that is such a fantastic song and does not belong anywhere close to the bottom of this album!!! In fact it should be in contention for #1 along with the title track and "You Should Probably Leave"!

Ok, I guess I'll say it then--"You Should Probably Leave" is not gonna be, but oughta be, last place. I don't know what I'm not hearing that y'all are, but I just can't get into that song for whatever reason. It's literally the one song I actively can't stand and it's an achingly sore thumb on what is otherwise among the best albums of 2020.

8. Which song will have #14 rank but leaves last? Ok, I guess I'll say it then--"You Should Probably Leave" is not gonna be, but oughta be, last place. I don't know what I'm not hearing that y'all are, but I just can't get into that song for whatever reason. It's literally the one song I actively can't stand and it's an achingly sore thumb on what is otherwise among the best albums of 2020. I think we have our answer to question #8

I think we have our answer to question #8 If this song goes to #1 ahead of such greats as "Cold," "Arkansas," and "Maggie's Song," I'm pulling a Taylor Swift, selling my tractor, and rebranding as a main pop girlie!!!

So...not to give too much away ahead of time but I can see where taylor is coming from in regards to "You Should Probably Leave". Not saying I ranked it that low, but I also didn't rank it all that high either lol.

I had to look at my list again but I personally think "You Should Probably Leave" is better than the title track, which while good is a bit overrated as well. Still I do believe that belongs in the Top 5 but shouldn't be in the top 2 over YSPL, "Maggie's Song" or "Cold" - which is what I'm hoping comes out on top!

The first of two Guy Clark covers, Worry B Gone, is the song that leave first. Having the last place ranks from singingrulebritannia, born and @trilogy, and generally low ranks from every participant, it was destinied to be the first song gone. The melody is a bit too simple, and the marijuana theme is just okay.

In regards to "Worry B Gone", this seems like the kind of song that would translate better over into Chris's live shows. I'm not too surprised to see this as the first song out.

Well, dang. I pretty much saw this coming based on your hint though lol. Still disappointing nonetheless as this is a song that I grew to like the more I listened to it.

The second of two Guy Clark covers, Old Friends, is the next song to leave. This song got the most of last place ranks, from fearlessarrow, Sambalada, ClevelandRox, Kris Kringle and me. Others view this slightly better than Worry B Gone. Geometrical loses a top 5 rank already, however. Never expected that spoken word verse tbh. It's thematically similar to Friendship in From A Room Volume 2 too. Both talk about treasuring your friends.

Also, because of the pandemic and not being able to see my friends much last year this was one song that I really related to. I remember even sending this to one my friends who moved to Montana as she is a huge Chris Stapleton fan and we were supposed to see him here in Austin last year.

Next up an original song will leave the rankdown. Somebody's #2 and somebody's #14 are gone. That's the way it is.

Glad "Hillbilly Blood" didn't make it out of the bottom 3. This is about the only song on the album that I outright dislike and always skip over.

The hint may be too obvious but I don't care lol. Also technically two people ( tim , castleoblivion26) lose the last place rank here. singingrulebritannia loses the #2. Hillbilly Blood is the first original song to leave. The hard-rocking thumps match the sinister lyrics, although I hope it would be more intense by having more kinds of instruments in the end.

Today's last reveal features two groups of ranking, either #4-#8 or #11-#14, making it 4th highest SD song.

Another original song leaves the rankdown. As mentioned above, a few of top 5 ranks are lost. Kanenrá:ke would be happy his last place fell short of top 10. When I'm With You feels like a obligatory slow song after first three punches from the album. The sentiment is also a bit basic.

I don't think it's a surprising Top 10:

"When I’m With You" more or less just gets lost in the shuffle amongst the rest of the album. It's a decent enough song, but it's also one that I tend to skip over depending up on my mood.

Perfect top 10! Had they just released an album with ten songs, this would've been my choice of what it would've looked like.

"When I'm With You" is so great; wish that could've snuck into the Top 10
