I was trying to stay awake for the last two reveals last night, but I just couldnât keep my eyes open any longer lol.
I never actually expected âWatch You Burnâ to land in the top five myself, so Iâm pleasantly surprised it was initially a strong contender for not just that but also the top 3. This is one of those songs that if I put it on I have to finish it. The anger that Chris and all of us had (and still have from the continued mass shootings in America) surrounding the events of that dreadful night in Las Vegas comes out through this song and I can think of no better artist to convey this type of message than Chris.
I was really curious to see how âNashville, TNâ would fare in this rankdown as I was afraid it would leave too soon (despite my own #8 ranking for it). Alas it was able to sneak into a spot just shy of the top 5 at the last minute. I just as easily could put this in my own top 5 on any given day as I absolutely love this song, but for whatever reason when I sat down to do my list in fell back a few spots if only because maybe I wasnât quite in the mood for it that day.
Excited to see how the top 5 plays out and given our time zone differences I hope Iâm still up when they are revealed this time lol.

It's good we have a new page for daily reveals. #5 is highest SD song in the rankdown. 4 #1s and 1 #14 will be lost.

Of all the songs remaining, âYou Should Probably Leaveâ was the one I was crossing my fingers would leave first. The song had a lot of praise heaped upon it when the album first came out and I can certainly understand why itâs so well-liked. That said, itâs by far one of my favorites though and therefore ti fell back to the bottom of my top 10.

This song is still pretty good. But it's a little too ordinary on an album that generally shows ordinary is not a thing Stapleton aims to be

taylor said to the song: You Should Probably Leave, while taking #1 from KanenrĂĄ:ke , ladyđfan , someguy and bornI was somewhat worried about this song because of Ashley Gorley co-wrote, but I am slightly relieved it's at least a retro pop song. That said it still sounds odd in the album context.

If you pay attention to the rankdown enough, you will notice Geometrical 's #14 is still in the rankdown. However, it's not in the next reveal. I am sueprised this song is someone's #1 even though it's well-liked.

âArkansasâ is a JAM! As I mentioned yesterday this was one song of quite a few that Chris was already performing live prior to this era. I may have been in a drunken state of mind when I last saw him here in Austin, but I do remember him singing this lol. Anyways, this ended up performing a lot better than I was expecting as I was even a bit hesitant on its top 5 chances.

^ This is the correct way to reveal "Arkansas" is an absolute rocker, great to see it at least made the top 5.

fearlessarrow becomes the next person to lose the #1. This is a rowdy song that features partying hard and a police chase. I think the speed-up outro sounds so familiar though. Admittedly I don't get the love for this one.

Up next is Geometrical 's #14, and of course someone's #1.

Hmm, Iâm going to guess this is âMaggieâs Songâ leaving âColdâ and the title track in the top two.

taylor loses the #1. I am not even a pet person but I think this is a touching song on the bond between an adopted dog and a person. "I can tell you right now/That a dog has a soul" indeed. One of the songs that work better by simple melody and not hindering the message.

Who in their right mind would put âMaggieâs Songâ dead last?! This is such a beautiful song that when the first time I heard it brought a tear to my eye. It was great that he chose to perform this at the ACMs last week and I also loved how he shared an Instagram photo of Maggie that same day.

Iâd be fine with either song winning actually! Both are great in their own way.

That was a close one! And much closer than I actually thought it might end up being.

I could make these two songs tied in points if I don't include my rankings, but Starting Over would still win because while both songs got same number of #1s, it got more #2s.
Both are good songs. The orchestrated effort of Cold took me of good surprise. This is definitely one of staples in those singing competitions.
Meanwhile Starting Over has those little organs in the background which give it warmth. I especially enjoy the stripped down performance on CMA Awards.

I really couldâve put either âColdâ or âWatch You Burnâ as my #2 song as they are both on about equal footing, but there was never any doubt that the title track would be at the top of my list. The song is such a breath of fresh air especially when put up against everything else that its playing amongst on country radio. I have to admit though that prior to yesterday I had no idea it was written well before this album era. Thanks again recordyear and Iâm glad I was able to be up for the results tonight!
