#4 was one of the most consistent songs with its ranks, having no #1s and only one bottom 3 rank, and spending all but four lists in its final position. Top 3s: 4 Perfect rankings: 2 Bottom 3s: 1 |

#3 placed 12 points ahead of DPYFOTH, but only three behind #2. It's somehow even more consistent than the last song, only missing three lists at #3 (all of which were spent at #2). Top 3s: 6 Perfect rankings: 3 Bottom 3s: 1 |

Unlike with The Kick Inside, where #1 and #3 were separated by over 40 points, Lionheart's top 3 each scored between 84 and 97 points. Despite that, they saw a similar lack of movement, being the same for the last 7 lists (and my edit). One of these struggled to break through early on, while the other spent every list in the top two.
But which will win? Find out in 10 minutes.

Despite the delays in reveals, this has been another really fun rankdown for me to host, and I'm really excited to start ranking her next album, Never For Ever, very soon. |

The next album to rank is 1980's Never For Ever, a landmark album for Kate in terms of success (being her first to hit #1 in the UK) and its production, as this is the album where Kate began producing her own music on top of writing it, assisted by the Fairlight CMI synthesiser. It resulted in what Kate has described as "the first album [she] was happy with", and (in my opinion) her best and most interesting album yet.  On top of making Kate the first British female solo artist to hit #1 in her home country, Never For Ever hit the top 5 in several other countries, including some where her first two hadn't charted at all. The album spent 8 weeks in the UK's top 10, ending up as the 27th biggest album of 1980, despite losing a third of its chart run to 1981. Unlike her first two albums, all of the singles were released internationally, with the second single "Babooshka" becoming a top 5 hit across Europe, making it her most successful single since "Wuthering Heights". The other two singles ("Breathing" and "Army Dreamers") were both able to hit the top 20 in the UK, with the latter also reaching Ireland's top 20. In case you're unfamiliar with how rankdowns work, you just need to rank these from #1 (your favourite) to #11 (your least favourite) and send your list to me in a PM. {The tracklist}1. Babooshka
2. Delius (Song of Summer)
3. Blow Away
4. All We Ever Look For
5. Egypt
6. The Wedding List
7. Violin
8. The Infant Kiss
9. Night Scented Stock
10. Army Dreamers
11. Breathing {And without numbers}Babooshka
Delius (Song of Summer)
Blow Away
All We Ever Look For
Egypt
The Wedding List
Violin
The Infant Kiss
Night Scented Stock
Army Dreamers
Breathing I'll go for a longer deadline than usual on this, since I have another rankdown due on the 29th, so this is due on the 5th November for now. |

(slightly under) 2 days remaining5. dremolus - solarpunk6. jamatthews83- One song has spent almost every list at #1 so far; the only other song to do so got there without any #1s.
- Thanks to #7 and #10 only being two points apart, four of the bottom 5 have spent time in the bottom 2.
- All of the bottom 3 have at least one #11.
- The highest SD currently belongs to #9, which has spent 3 lists in the top 5.
- Two songs (#2 and #11) have much lower SDs than the rest.
- Almost every song has a variety of ranks; aside from #1 and #11, no song has more than 2 of the same rank.
- We have one tie, between #9 and #10.

i really thought i'd already made this post and was gonna be like "reveals are tomorrow!" lmao Submissions are closed12. Glove Slap- The previous update's #1 has ended up the winner, and beat #2 by 13 points.
- The bottom 5 are still the same as the last update, although none of #7-#10 are tied now.
- All of the bottom 4 have at least one #11.
- #4 now has the highest SD, thanks to its four top 2s and multiple bottom 3s.
- The same two songs as before have much lower SDs than the other nine.
- We've finished the game with no ties.
And before I start reveals tomorrow, here are a few questions for you guys to answer: 1. Which songs do you think could win/make the top 3? 2. Which songs do you think could be #11/make the bottom 3? 3. Which songs could have the highest SDs (the most divisive)? 3. Which songs could have the lowest SDs (the least divisive)? 5. How far do you think your #1 will go? 6. Which order will the singles (Breathing, Babooshka, Army Dreamers) leave in? 7. Any other predictions? |

I'm seeing too much predictability, and I think Babooshka will win this.

We'll kick off reveals with #11, which fell far short of everything else, having more #11 ranks than every other rank combined. Highest rank: 9 Perfect rankings: 9 Lowest rank: 11 (x9) |
