Ugh of course the top 3 consists of my lower ranks that I had going into this :/
12 22 24, rooting for my 12 but knowing my luck that’s coming next.

Supervixen is winning, isn't it Jinxmaster gates is still in effect. I actually flirted with putting this in my top five, as I just love this era of Garbage overall. One or two songs from this era would have been locked into my top five, maybe even higher, but "Supervixen" is great, too. 1 vs. 14 My 14 is absolutely, 100% winning, but I'm glad my 1 got this far.

PRECIOUS THINGS vs. VIOLET...and then there were two -Hole and Tori Amos were well ahead of the pack as "Supervixen" trailed both by over a full ranking -These songs battled back and forth for the title during the last 9 movements -SDs: 10th lowest vs. 15th highest -11 top 10s vs. 12 top 10s -Each has 1 bottom 10 ranking -7 #1s remain: Leaf , American Idiot , willapted33 , eidde , @xfer , DadJokes , and Red -17 points separate the two Find out shortly which female vocalist will emerge victorious...

ONE ABOVE AND ONE BELOW!I have expressed my disappointment in Celebrity Skin in the past, and it's mainly because of what it followed. Live Through This was one hell of an opening salvo from Courtney Love, as well as one of my personal favorite 90's albums, and "Violet" is the centerpiece of the whole thing. It's basically a microcosm of the album: It's ferocious, raw, and incredibly powerful. I am so happy that it won. rowellfarm490, I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that I am looking forward to your next personal. As always, you continue to prove why you're one of the best hosts here.

{FINAL STATS} That concludes the Ladies of 90s Alternative rankdown! Thanks again to all participants! I hope you had fun listening to and ranking the songs featured in this rankdown. This list had a mix of some of my own personal favorites from the decade along with some other stellar songs that deserved an opportunity to be in a rankdown. I also tried to give some exposure here to a few overlooked and underappreciated artists. There are many more female vocalists and songs that were worthy of being included here but to keep this rankdown from getting even more out of hand I stuck with these 40. Since I really loved hosting this perhaps someday down the road I will put together a sequel rankdown.

I should probably add that had you gone with "Crucify" for Tori instead I might have given that a top 5 Anyways, excellent list, so glad to see some of these incredible bands finally get their chance at a rankdown. Thanks for hosting!

Despite being all over the place in the earlier picks, it was cool to see both of my top 2 finish 1 and 2 (even if I got the order switched). Two great songs and glad to see them at the top.
Thanks for hosting a really fun RD.
