Walt's Assorted Jams Rankdown: Volume 2 (Set #1 revealing)

#27



"Ride On Time" by Black Box

Points: 310
SD: 10.96509614 (second highest)


One of the first big Italo house hits, this was actually the UK's biggest song of 1989. Unlike Black Box's later singles Everybody Everybody and Strike It Up, though, it did not cross over to the States. A dance classic imo, but it's a very in-your-face song so I'm not surprised by the tanks. Condolences, ccarter.

"All I Wanna Do" by Dannii Minogue

Points: 300
SD: 7.665941995

The lead single off her third record Girl, Dannii took All I Wanna Do to #4 in the UK and #11 in her native Australia in the summer of 1997. Kylie remains the highest Minogue sister, but by how much? We'll see   Condolences, Az and AI.

"religion (u can lyhom)" by Shura

Points: 293
SD: 6.261877603

Released as the second single from Shura's second record Forevher in 2019, this is a criminally underrated slice of synthpop which I wish went a little further :/ Curiously, it has the lowest top rank of any song revealed thus far despite outperforming the previous reveals.

"Daydream" by The Aces

Points: 284
SD: 5.087020521 (third lowest)

Daydream was released in the Spring of 2020 as the lead single from The Aces' second record, Under My Influence. I got really into their catalogue in 2021, and this is the song I'd use to introduce someone to them - just a really catchy and feel-good synthpop bop. It fared better than "Volcanic Love" did in the first edition of this RD, little victories!

"Lost & Found" by Ellie Goulding

Points: 282
SD: 10.64790016 (third highest)

A promotional single off of Ellie's Delirium, this managed to scrape the lower end of some charts (#70 in Australia, #57 in the UK) but, as I see it, remains the highlight of that album. Fun fact - per Wikipedia, it was apparently written for Fleetwood Mac? Random, lol.

"Summer Fling" by Nina Nesbitt

Points: 280
SD: 8.856886837

The most recent song in this rankdown, Summer Fling was released last July as the lead single for Nina's as-of-now untitled third album. I had this on repeat back in August, it's perfect for late summer nights. Condolences, Fire.

"Hair" by Lady Gaga

Points: 274
SD: 11.39395551 (highest)

A promotional single from Born This Way, Hair debuted & peaked at #12 on the Hot 100. Born This Way is my favorite Gaga album (TFM is an EP so I'm not counting it) and helped younger me become more comfortable with my queerness, so lyrically, this and much of the record hold an important place in my heart - I chose to include Hair since I feel like it isn't mentioned enough in conversations about Gaga. Condolences, indulge.

I would be a much bigger fan of "Ride On Time" if there was ~80% less yelling

"Do It" by Nelly Furtado

Points: 272
SD: 5.195003146

The final single from "Loose", Do It was released in June 2007 to a comparatively meager Hot 100 peak of #88, though it did nearly hit the Top 10 in Canada. Notably, the song was the subject of a lawsuit since Timbaland sampled a Finnish chiptune song without crediting the composers.

Points: 260

After a decade and a half of no new material, Blondie released Maria as their comeback single in January 1999. Though it didn't reach their previous peaks in the States, it went on to become the sixth UK chart-topper.

"Seventeen" by Ladytron
(no, I swear I didn't rig this finishing at 17)

Points: 256
SD: 8.996295534

British electroclash outfit Ladytron released Seventeen as the lead single from their second record "Light & Magic" in 2002. The song, noted for its minimal lyrical content, broke the top 50 in Australia and made it to #68 in their homeland.
