Your final 2. Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)You Can't Hurry LoveTale of the Tape:This was the top 2 for 22 movements (non-consecutively) One of the songs spent 16 movements at #1; the other, 7 These songs have a combined 39 top 10s, 26 being top 5s and 6 being #1s. 6 bottom 15s remain, 3 being bottom 10s. BB🌕 is the only player with a chance at a perfect top 2. In fact, since BB also ranked "Walk On By" at #3, he is going for a perfect top 3. Only 1 player has no top 10s left. Lordef†ones is down to his 20 v 22. One of these songs is the 2nd lowest SD. The other is the 7th lowest. The winning margin is 9 points.

Dammit! I was hoping my list wouldn't have made a difference. I'm pissed all over again. Bye!

Next Personal Rankdown: Jazz Volume/Series 1 When: Sometime After I Finish 1982 Mainstream Rock Yes, for once I'm not opening my next personal rankdown straight away. For one, I just want to take a break. And for two, I'm planning to switch up the way I host my personal rankdowns. I'm not certain I'll ever host a personal rankdown even as big as this one on these forums again (aside from maybe Soul Volume Two, to be consistent)--it's grown to be too mentally taxing. And you noticed I used the word "series"? Yea, I'll still be breaking up the song selections into volumes, but perhaps those volumes will themselves be broken up into mini-RDs that have shorter due dates. Just trying new things, you know. Oh, and lastly...I really want to get the song selection right. It's the foundation for everything else in the game, of course I'd want to do that!

A great rankdown singingrulebritannia! Found a couple new favorites, including my #1 a song I had never heard before - Syl Johnson.

{one more word wall}I've been a bit busy the last couple of days, so I apologize for not being around too much, especially for the top ten.
#10: I was going to make the joke of "well, it would be just like Pulse to have a white person make the top ten of a predominantly black RD", but then, my white ass put this song top ten, so I'm part of the problem. (This song is stunning, and it says a LOT about the song's quality that I put it top ten here over the songs just outside of my top ten.) #9: You could say that this song...lifts me. I'll see myself out. #8: My favorite Temptations song, I like it even more than "My Girl", and I'm really glad to see it get represented here and make the top ten...though of course they did, it's The Temptations. #7: Second only to "Reach Out", as far as I'm concerned. ("Reach Out" would have been my #1 here, ftr.) #6: I'm not surprised this is so high, and I do really like it, but I've just never really been able to connect with it. It's certainly a good song, though. #5: Okay, let's return to the Syl Johnson song for a second. My biggest issue with that song is that it felt like it was too long, that it could have stood to have been trimmed down a bit. I may have been unfairly comparing it to this, because there was never a point in this song's ten minutes where I felt bored whatsoever. This song keeps moving, keeps changing it up, and the ending is just the icing on top of the cake. I expected my 2 to be my #1 going into the RD, but whew, this just overwhelmed me. #4: Certifiable banger. #3: This song is pretty much perfect. It's not even in my top five. What the hell, man
Well, "Sinnerman" was never going to win because of its length, but 2 vs. 3 will do nicely as a consolation prize.
#2: Marvin Gaye was so fucking great that he turned this song about the environment into a soul-swaying tune and a half. The guy was a genius. #1: The weird thing is that I wouldn't say that I'm that big of a fan of The Supremes. It's just that, when they hit me, they hit. This is the best version of this particular Supremes song style, it's pitch perfect. Is it my favorite Supremes song? Nah, I'd say that "You Keep Me Hangin' On" is possibly my favorite girl group song ever. It's not too far off, though. Again, sorry for not being here as it happened. You hosted a great RD as always, singingrulebritannia. Take the deserved break after 1982, you've earned it...and then come back, because I need that jazz RD injected directly into my veins.
