I just LOVE this song... I literally couldn't stop listening to it when the album came out and I think it has a gorgeous melody! It never was a fan favorite, but it did gain traction organically on TikTok - which doesn't surprise me, as it sounds like a song that would be popular amongst younger audiences, maybe it could be sung by someone like Kelsea Ballerini. Anyways, it had a strong start here thanks to my 2nd place and codyj100 's top10 right on the beginning, but it dropped like a rock after a while! Shame on these bottom rankings!!!

Your Top15:
"Bar Back" "Change My Mind" "Getting Good" (Solo) "Getting Over Him" "Good Ole Boy" "If the World Was a Small Town" "I'm Not Sad Anymore" "In My Veins" "It Was Me" "Ladies in the '90s" "Run" "Seen You in Your Hometown" "The Other Side" "What Do You Think Of?" "When the Party's Over"
See you tomorrow!
I'll give you guys one spoiler: Nobody is losing their #1 until the top12, but then after that someone is going to lose their #1 every single time. We had 12 different #1s and they're all on the top12.

I'm Not Sad Anymore When the Party's Over Seen You in Your Hometown Bar Back In My Veins

"When the Party's Over" is a fun song! I wouldn't pick it as a highlight on the album but it's catchy and it's nice for its purpose. I'd expect it to be a few spots lower on this rankdown, but I'm fine with it making the top15.

"In My Veins" was a great song to open not only the "Getting Good" EP, but also Lauren's first headlining tour. I love the fiddle and the production of it. The song turns out to be one of the most controversial here, with 4 top5's (and 6 top10's) but also 5 bottom 3's. These last two cuts might be hurtful to Pollen, who now lost 3 songs of his top5 :(

"In My Veins" is my first top 10 loss. It's such a fun song and the instrumentation is just A+. I figured it would've been my first top 10 loss though.

"I'm Not Sad Anymore" was consistent through most of its chart-run. It had 4 top10's, as well as 2 last-places, but most of the rankings were in the middle, which is where it finished. This song really grew on me with time.
It's also the last song on this rankdown to not have a #1 - be careful now!

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... 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. Cue the shock, lol. 👀😂

Of course the first person to lose their #1 is... me! lol. "What Do You Think Of?" was THE most controversial song on this rankdown. 11 out of the 18 lists had it on the top half, but some people really hated it. It had 4 top5's, but also 3 LAST PLACES, which is more than any other song except last place finisher "If I Was a Beer", which also had 3. It was a top10 contender and even a top5 contender for a while, but when those bottom rankings started coming it didn't stood a chance.
This song was a fan-favorite since its release though, reaching the top of the Country iTunes organically, and showing potential to be a crossover hit. It was my most listened song of 2020 so it was only fair for me to put it at my number one.
I get it - it doesn't sound like a country song. It's essentially a piano pop ballad. BUT it's gorgeous! The lyrics, the vocals, the melody... everything about this song is flawless and if y'all don't get it, I'm sorry for your taste!!! joking - but not really!

"Seen You In Your Hometown" had a strong start, but eventually it couldn't keep up with the songs on the top10. Sad news for nathanalbright, who joins me as the other #1 song that didn't make it to the top10. This is another very good song and I also really love its live performances! Although some people didn't love it that much, it wasn't really hated either, with only 2 bottom 5's.

I’m shocked that “What Do You Think Of” didn’t even make the top 10. I’m also a little sad (heh) that “I’m Not Sad Anymore” placed so low. I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised, as it never seemed to receive much fanfare, but it was immediately one of the standouts on the album for me.

This entire rankdown has been a roller coaster for me. I also didn't realize I was such a stan of "I'm Not Sad Anymore" and that I was kind of alone in it... I think it has one of the best melodies on the album. Totally bummed it's out. And, yeah, super shocked about WDYTO... even if it's not my very favorite.
"Run" has zero place in the top 10, especially not over "Seen You In Your Hometown". Other than that, the top 10 is a bit predictable. Love the love for "Change My Mind".

"In My Veins" sounds like something I should like but I feel like her vocals clash so much with the instrumentals that it's a really jarring listen for me. I guess I might not be the only one who thinks that based on the rankings from some other posters?

"In My Veins" sounds like something I should like but I feel like her vocals clash so much with the instrumentals that it's a really jarring listen for me. I guess I might not be the only one who thinks that based on the rankings from some other posters? Same here as well. "In My Veins" was my initial last place and it remained as such with each revision I made to my list. I'm not a fan of the production which just ruins the song. It also somewhat reminded me of a High Valley song and once I had that in my head I couldn't get past that lol. I also agree with a fellow poster above that much this rankdown has been nothing but a roller coaster. I wouldn't have pegged either "You Ain't a Cowboy" or "Same Story, Different Saturday Night" as bottom contenders with the latter actually getting the the short end of the stick. I'm glad that my final list at least pushed "You Ain't a Cowboy" out of the bottom 2, though. Given some of the comments earlier, I wasn't surprised to see "What Do You Think Of?" clock in as the most polarizing song. While this sounds like something that I probably wouldn't like, I actually found myself coming back around to it a handful of times and because of that I opted to keep it in my top 10. Speaking of the top 10, there are really only one or two surprises of which I'd gladly swap out "Bar Back" for something else. My gut says that "Ladies in the '90s" will come out on top, so I'm more intrigued by what the rest of the top 5 is going to look like.

I'm surprised to hear so much distaste for "What Do You Think Of?". It's definitely poppier and I am no fan of Lukas Graham but the song itself and Lauren's amazing vocals make it a standout for me. I just wish we had a solo version.

"Bar Back" shits all over Priscilla Block's current single.
