Been a hot minute since I've done a personalized rankdown. Let's do one. Below are 20 tracks I've been into over the last ~year that have less than 10 million streams on Spotify. It's your job to listen to each one and rank them from best to worst. The goal of this rankdown is to encourage y'all to checkout some music you may have not heard before. (Some of these tracks you may recognize from a Madness tournament or two.) Here is the list of songs you will be ranking: ALMA/Tove Lo - Worst Behaviour Aly & AJ - Listen!!! Au/Ra - Moon River Austin Mahone - Summer Love Baby Queen - Raw Thoughts Cannons - Love Chained Delaney Jane - Just Sex Evanescence - Yeah Right The Evening - Told Ya Grace VanderWaal - Don't Assume What You Don't Know Hayley Williams - Sugar on the Rim KILLBOY - U + ME Maggie Lindemann - Loner Moe Chaieb/Claire Ridgely - Fly Off Pale Waves - She's My Religion Rain City Drive (Slaves) - Secrets Roosevelt - Echoes SoMo - Blue Rose Tyler Posey/phem/Travis Barker - Shut Up The Veronicas - Did Ya Think Here's a very handy Spotify playlist: Remember to PM me your rankings. One being your most favorite, 20 being your least favorite. As of now, the tentative date of this being due is Feb. 27. That may or may not change, we shall see. As of right now, expect submission to close then. Here's a YouTube playlist for your convenience as well www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5tESr-OXYoCAFgGlfQ7J7Ysnq7pS8g2q

Actually I will be honest I never heard Blue Rose, but I am pretty sure it is going to be a great song because I liked everything else from him! the throwback sound R&B feel good vibe is great.

I low key love small turnouts at times because it maximizes the potential for chaos. Bring it on.

20Au/RaMoon RiverPoints: 106 STDEV: 4.220 "Moon River" is a cover of the song of the same name originally performed by the legendary Audrey Hepburn for her film Breakfast at Tiffany's. The original track won the Grammy awards for Song of the Year and Record of the Year in 1962. 60 years after its release, the song is a jazz standard and iconic piece of pop culture. It has been covered an insane amount of times. This particular version is by the Spanish born German singer Au/Ra. Au/Ra fits right in with the indie pop crowd of late and I highly encourage you to check out some of her songs. (She comes Kunt approved too BTW.) This particular cover does not showcase her typical artistry, but I did love its haunting production over Au/Ra's almost etheral vocals. RanksFire 11 samo🦕 11 Gonza'90 11 .indulgecountry 15 Az Paynter 18 SHOOTER 20 Au$tin 20 No chaos for SHOOTER (and I) here as he scores a perfect rank right off the bat!

Not surprised this is #20. (Well... maybe a little. But I'm not surprised it's low.) It's a cover of an old-ass song, it's slow, it's nowhere near typical Pulse fave material, etc. It was even my last rank just because, while I have thoroughly enjoyed it, I do have to be in the mood for it now and it's just not something I see myself returning to often as the years go by.

19Austin MahoneSummer LovePoints: 101 STDEV: 5.028 There's not much to say about this one. It's a cheesy chill love song that's summer themed. It's performed by someone who could easily just do porn or be a stripper or something. (Isn't he also one of Disco's spank bank thots?) I don't follow this guy, the song just appeared in my Discover Weekly and I thought it was a nice chill vibe. Somehow it actually managed to reach #1 on my personal chart for a week, though. Easily the weirdest and out of left field #1 for me in 2021. (What can I say, though, that "Way down south past the double AA" line got stuck in my head constantly.) Ranks.indulgecountry 4 Fire 12 SHOOTER 16 Au$tin 16 Az Paynter 17 samo🦕 18 Gonza'90 18 SHOOTER, quit copying my ranks. Poor .indulgecountry not only becomes the first to lose a top ten rank, but also the first to lose a top five rank! Don't worry, though, indulge, someone else loses a #2 rank next.

Moon River was sleep sleep and I wish Austin's music matched his hotness.

18EvanescenceYeah RightPoints: 100 STDEV: 6.075 "Yeah Right" was one of the pre-release buzz tracks from Evanescence's most recect album, The Bitter Truth. Evanescence hasn't quite hit the same marks we fell in love with since, like, 2007, but this one is one of their best tracks since The Open Door in my opinion. It's not as hard hitting as anything from their debut, but it is a grungy little modern rock track. I'm particularly a fan of when the second verse comes in and you get this really energetic drum pattern over Amy's haunting vocals.

17Grace VanderWaalDon't Assume What You Don't KnowPoints: 89 STDEV: 4.786 Grace VanderWaal has quite the reputation after winning America's Got Talent over five years ago. She's a local to the metro area I currently live in and went to college in at the time, so she was sort of always a big deal here from the moment her audition went viral. People loved her at the time, but it seems as if most people these days find her to be a bit annoying due to her overpronunciation and "idie girl" vibes but not really. And I get that, but even still I believe she has some gems here and there, such as "Clearly," "Ur So Beautiful," "I Don't Like You," "Waste My Time," and "Poser." But her music has always been as if Colbie Caillat thought she was born in "le wrong generation" until this track right here. "Don't Assume" takes a dive into pop/rock, and I'm kind of all about it. I obsessed over the track for a brief period, but I'd be lying if I said it hasn't burned on me a heavy amount. Still, I like this direction for Grace and I hope she continues to follow this sound.
