That's right, the Chris Young purge continues! This time it is a #1 from CagedJuggalo The Third Tanker that kicks off our top 75, which is entirely unfortunate because this song is AWESOME!!! I've been realizing lately just how many people seem to straight up dislike this one, and it actually makes me kinda sad. Like, obviously it was still well-liked enough to make the top 10 and place in this rank down, but it was a pretty tough road for it to get there. And then in this best-of rd, it was never able to climb out of the 60s/70s thanks to the bottom 20 ranks that kept pouring in pretty consistently throughout the submission process. Chris sings the absolute hell out of this one!!!!! It would be a great song to begin with regardless of who sings it, but his vocal absolutely takes it to the next level! I never get sick of it! Great taste in #1, CagedJuggalo The Third Tanker ! WTF?!? This (and Neon, and The Man I Want to Be) are incredible tunes and Chris Young sings the hell out of them, particularly SSN. I think Chris is being punished for all the shit he has forced us to listen over the years that IS subpar. I'm looking at you Losing Sleep, Hanging On and Aw Naw (which I think is a fun jam, despite not being anywhere near as high quality as his prior hits). I have no confidence that Voices is going to make it past the next set of reveals. #justiceforChris

No idea how it could be out over the likes of "Think Of You", "Let It Rain", "Drunk Of A Plane", "Mercy", "In Case You Didn't Know" and the litany of mediocre female songs still left in this. Considering that you believe "Independence Day" to be like one of the 5 worst songs of 1994, I feel like you wouldn't actually be able to identify a "mediocre female song" if it slapped you upside the head Hey now, I think i had at least 20 songs ranked below it. Frankly, I'd have more songs on this list ranked below it than the 94 list.

In Case You Didn't Know should not have outlasted Mercy. Mercy is nice, but ICYDK has such a beautiful melody, and still the iconic hit for Brett Young.

I had a feeling "Postcard from Paris" would be one of the first to go; I'm surprised it survived "Blowin' Smoke" and "Vice," tbh.

âIn Case You Didnât Knowâ is a gorgeous song! Wish it had landed higher but itâs a strong list so Iâll take top 75.

Lol yep, sorry guys! The last couple months of the school year are always really busy. That being said, I did have to focus more on the latest New Releases rd lately, but it is now finished, so this will once again be my top Pulse Priority ;) Definitely hope to get it wrapped up by the end of the month!

7. Which of the following random songs is most likely to escape the bottom 30??!! "Vice", "homecoming queen?", "Voices, or "Mercy"?
Soooo, when I asked this question, "homecoming queen?" was in fact the only song that was going to escape the bottom 30!!!! "Mercy" made a sudden jump thanks to LBTrocks' list at the very last possible minute, thereby escaping the bottom 30 and making this question more or less no longer factual Still, either way, Kelsea has the only song here to escape the 70s!!

That's right, when I asked the question of which of these songs was going to escape the bottom 30, only one of them was even remotely going to escape the bottom 30 by the slimmest of margins! I was trying to stress you out by hinting at how insane these results were going to be, in case anyone was to look at that list of songs and be like "omg none of them deserve the bottom 30!" Looking back to the prediction responses, "homecoming queen?" was one that even had a prediction for a possible winner of this thing (sorry toomuchboy!!).... So in other words, buckle up y'all đ

Speaking of Eric Church, I think we're overdue for another loss from his catalog. đ

Look at bigfan101 being in the top 1/3 of the highest rankers for Kacey!!!! What the heck is happening! đ "Keep It To Yourself" is Kacey's second loss, after we lost "Blowin' Smoke" exactly ten reveals ago. Neither of them have endured as being among Kacey's more popular songs, so it probably shouldn't be a surprise that they are the first of hers to leave.

"Keep It to Yourself" is so underrated. It only peaked at #32 at country radio but if I remember correctly it only took like 12 weeks to get there before it floundered? I think it could've easily been a radio hit in a more forgiving environment (though that could probably be said for a lot of her discography, lol).
