90s One Hit Wonders Rankdown - Winner revealed

[312999]

We had 38 lists and for some reason ilikemilk still found a way to be the highest rank for the bottom 2. Lmfao.

[CF15]

I'll take it. I honestly can't even remember how this goes.

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

I remember liking Big Big World for a hot minute when it first came out but it got old fast because of its incredibly basic chorus. Listening to it again for this rankdown, I kind of liked it again. Not something I’d ever listen to regularly but once every five years would be fine. I’m okay that it’s out now.

[312999]

Fun fact - all 3 people who ranked Big Big World at 50, had One More Try at 49.

[312999]

Next up at 48, somebody loses a number 2, this one is not ilikemilk, but will he still lose a high rank? or will he finally lose something low. The number 2 rank is the only rank in the top 10. Has 1 50 and 3 people get a perfect ranking. This is the 7th lowest SD.

[CagedJuggalo The Third Tanker]

I got a Perfect Ranking? That doesn't happen often

[Deleted]

This feels like a pre-"I'm not like other girls" theme song.

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

I’ll be sad if it’s my #2 and would also be surprised as well.

[312999]

Before I reveal the 48, also want to point out that it was over 100 points ahead of the 49, so the bottom 2 was pretty much locked majority of the way.

[CF15]

Can't imagine it's mine. I predicted that one as a top-ten contender.

48. Chesney Hawkes - The One And Only

Idk what to say but I already forgot how this sounds like, sorry nathanalbright , as you are one of the rare minority on this.

[CF15]

Yeah, this rubbed me the wrong way. Only two songs left I actively dislike.

[312999]

Number 47 has the lowest highest rank of any song with 14, and there's more than 1 person to rank it there. Surprisingly this barely missed the top 10 lowest standard deviations. 4 people will lose a 50. I believe that this was last place for a few lists near the start of the Rankdown.

[CF15]

If I keep predicting "Lullaby", it'll eventually be right.
I can definitely see it going out here, though.

[Optical Apex]

This sounds like this was made for a teen drama type show

Also, lmao not me being the 4th highest ranker for this one

Yea it is safe to say that, this song is not my type at all whatsoever. Did not like anything about it.

Eh, I thought this was alright. shrug

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

"The One And Only" is okay. I've occasionally heard it on the radio over the years, usually on light rock or oldies stations mostly I think. It's good inoffensive background music.

[Optical Apex]

"Slitskin"

These guys naming themselves after a fairy tale character- the one that inspired the villain in Shrek 4

Oops... the T and the Ls are too similar on it.

[312999]

Nothing really too interesting about 46 other than 2 people lose a last place and the highest rank is an 11. 5th lowest Standard deviation.

[Optical Apex]

So far, 3 of these have been ranked in my 20s lol

46. Beverly Craven - Promise Me

Eh I did not think that this was all that bad, but I just could not rank it any higher because of more songs I love way more than this.

School play music.

[312999]

I am going to take a break for about 30 minutes and then I will reveal 45 to 41. 2 people will lose top 5s at 45 and for the first time, nobody will lose a last place rank.

[CF15]

Didn't remember this, either.

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

There were 4 or 5 songs I didn't know or recognize coming into this rankdown and "Promise Me" was one of them. There was one among those unknown songs that was a very pleasant surprise, and the others ranged from okay to meh, but this one did nothing for me. I suppose if I had been familiar with it, it might have gotten by on nostalgia (as many songs from the 90s tend to for me), but unfortunately not, so it tanked.

[CagedJuggalo The Third Tanker]

Now one off a perfect ranking?

I must've slept with a guy that does voodoo cause this some Djinn bullshit right now

[312999]

Next up at 44, the highest standard deviation that we have encountered so far, but it is only the 12th highest. 2 top 10s are lost, but, 13 bottom 5s are lost too including 2 50s.
