I haven't taken the time to listen to this album yet, but now seems like a good time! Definitely in for this.

I must admit I'm not very familiar with her body of work but I'm not opposed to this.

I will definitely do this! Change My Mind has to be Top 10, it's one of her best ballads ever.

Definitely want to do this. Have heard most of the album, but need to finish it so I can participate. I think I’ll have time since we still have a month.

I'll get this done. I just want to listen through it all again since I haven't revisited it much since it was released - especially when including the past EPs.

How many people are you hoping for for this one? I know I'm not the host, but speaking from all my experience, I'd say 12-15 is probably a realistic expectation for this :) Maybe a little higher because Lauren might attract a couple other people like you who don't often do the other country rankdowns.

That's true, I'm fairly new to the rankdowns in general, though, so I imagine people will be expecting me before too long.

Well, if you're looking to get more involved in the rankdown world, and feel like ranking 100 mostly well-known songs, I am currently hosting a rankdown honoring the best country songs of the 2010s! It is the top 10 from each of the year-end rankdowns of the 2010s smashed together into one huge, impossible list. 2010s Decade-End Rankdown
(No worries if you don't want to, or if you don't have time. It's just definitely one of those the-more-the-merrier situations! This invitation goes to everybody!!)

How many people are you hoping for for this one? It's my first rankdown ever so I don't even know what to expect lol But as bboat11 said, 12-15 would be nice! I got two more lists since my last post and I'm loving to keep up with the results so far. Top3 is very close. We do have a clear last place so far, but everything can change...

12-15 would be a very nice rankdown, I agree, and hopefully the country fans will join in because this isn't a very long rankdown.

Tomorrow was supposed to be the last day to send lists but as I only got two more, I'm extending the deadline to April 29. Hope this extra week can give you guys time to get this done. It's all super close so far, one list can change the whole thing... trust me, the difference of points between #1 and #10 is ridiculously low. So make sure to join and help your favorite songs!

I really hope Change My Mind and The Other Side are going to be Top 5. These two songs always get me.

1. Which song will be #1?
My gut reaction is one of the singles, "It Was Me", or "What Do You Think Of?". Not my personal #1, but...
2. Which songs are top 5 contenders?
The singles (minus Ladies), WDYTO, "Bar Back" is popular on here, and something like "The Other Side"
3. Which song will be last?
One of the random album tracks that feel filler. Maybe "Same Story" or "You Ain't a Cowboy"
4. Which song will be most and least polarizing?
Most polarizing will be the Yearwood duet, I think. Personally it ranked low for me but I know many prefer it, and probably most people won't rank them close together. Least polarizing is hard to say. Like I said, people love "Bar Back" as well as "Seen You In Your Hometown". A lot of that EP is crowd pleasing.
5. Which radio single will do better - Ladies in the '90s, Getting Good (solo) or Getting Over Him?
Getting Good is a dark horse here. It might not outright win but it will be close.
6. Which collaboration will do better - What Do You Think Of, Getting Good (with Trisha) or Getting Over Him?
What Do You Think Of? is sure to rank highest out of these three. I would be really shocked if it didn't.
7. Which group of songs will perform better overall - Getting Good (EP), Getting Over Him (EP) or the album tracks?
Getting Over Him (EP) if there is any justice. That is her strongest body of work to date. I still wish the album was more sonically/lyrically in that vein.
8. Any other thoughts/predictions? The album tracks are all going to jumble together if you ask me. I am a huge fan but 15 songs without too many standing out, especially after the masterpiece of the Getting Over Him EP, was just a flat out bummer. I do look forward to watching this all unfold!

I mean, considering that "What Do You Think Of?" is a hot, steamy pile of garbage, it absolutely better NOT be in the running for the highest collaboration or the top 5, let alone the win!
