This is one step above being a Train song, and you don't want to go full-Train.

I know I promised 2 sets tonight but I'm having a really rough mental health day. I'm going to work on more reveals but the fact that these first 15 took me like 6 hours to do I probably won't force you all to stay up that late.

Totally meant to submit to this but I missed the mark. I’ll follow along though. There’s a few songs I’m rooting for and y’all better not disappoint!

100. Miracle Worker - SuperheavyWhat an odd song to drown in the tank. The music itself wasn't that bad. I realize the reggea voice kinds ruins it, but Mick and especially Joss Stone sounded great. Those two save the song. 99. Marry Me - TrainLOL! I knew this song would get lynched. I'll be the first to say I don't belive in all that marriage bull, but the song is pleasant and romantique as F U C K. If anyone can pull it off Pat Monahan can. 98. Hey Hey Hey - Michael Franti & SpearheadNothing to write home about, but I actually thought I had ranked the other one higher? 97. I'll Be Waiting - Michael Franti & SpearheadHmm. I obviuosly got these two confused. This one should have been my #69 as it is a better melodically driven song. I guess it didn't really make a difference, since it is Michael Frante and Spearhead 96. Heaven - O.A.R.I alawys had a bit of a soft spot for this band. This song sounded better to me back when it was in rotation. 95. From The Clouds - Jack Johnson"Beach Bum" music is what comes to mind. Didn't care for this one. 94. Honeypot - Bob SchneiderThis one settled nicely into my tank from note one. Sounded like a phoned in Bob Seger filler track. 93. Sydney (I'll Come Running) - Brett Dennen This guy's vocals tones become a task to listen to more and more with each song. I'm not quite there yet, but this one is one of his more melodic songs. Kinda a feel good song too. 92. Father's Son - Fistful Of MercyProbably one of the more aggressive sounding songs in my bottom ten. Vocals are a dissaster. I feel this kind of music sounds better without lyrics. Like an prelude to a cool Rock song. 91. Hey Mama - Mat Kearneyslightly less abysmal than "Ships In The Night" is all I can say about this wonderjam. 90. G. Love - Fixin To DieDefinitely prefer this guy with more of that (Special sauce) 89. Comeback Kid - Brett DennenShould of liked this more since I think it's about his dog. unless the "that's my dog" refers to something else in which case I don't even wanna know? 88. Light You Up - Shawn MullinsSorry ,but this failed to light my spark. i dozed off during quite a few of these songs. 87. Brand New Day - Trevor Hall I never heard of this guy, but the melody of the song shares one with La Oreja De van Gogh.very melodic and one of my top first time listens. 86. Faster - Matt NathansonAside form being such a great feel good song it also makes the best use of George Michael's "Faith" riff". I knew this would be my first casualty. Once gave a chick a I liked a mix tape with this song included. Got me her number. Extras:One Republic - SecretsTypica Ryan Tedder song writing that sounded like a billion POP ballads songs of that era. A billion Pop ballads I couldn't stand. Noah & The Whale - L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.NIf I knew of this song back then I probably would have charted it. I typically like songs that spell out the chorus. Even more if they secretly ride on a Tom Petty "Don't Come Around Here No More" melody. Cool discovery. To be fair I didn chart a few of this band's songs.They all kinda ride on 80's song's melodies. My Morning Jacket - You Wanna Freak OutI didn't like this nearly half as much as thier Black metal sound. Greg Laswell - MarqueeAlmost kinda feels like a Coldplay song, and not a very good one either. Chris Isaak - Live It UpI can dig on this Bill Haley and The Comets style. Sure lives up to its title. The Script - NothingI charted The Script many times. This was one of my favorites, and lyrics hit hard with this band. A few months later I dedicated this song to that same girl that I won over with "Faster". maybe I should have sent her the Train song first.

100: Miracle Worker - looooool what the fuck is thissssss. Why were Mick Jagger & Joss Stone in a reggae supergroup what why have I never heard of this wtf. Literally blew my mind when I listened to this. Best part of this song is when Damien name drops everyone in the group at the end of the song for some reason and says "imagine! Think about it!" Oh yeah Damien, I am keenly aware of what's happening rn
99: Marry Me - Idk, I ranked this pretty low but...idk, I actually don't really hate it. If anything...I could have bumped it up a bit. Social pressures to rank Train low affected its ranking for sure, as much as I hate to admit it. I even daresay that this is...pleasant.
98: Hey Hey Hey - This might be the most I've ever liked a Michael Franti song?? I mean, #75 isn't a great rank from me, but for Franti it's good! Like, legit just really catchy. Will I ever come back to it, absolutely not, but would I change the radio on it? Well, probably. But not right away.
97: I'll Be Waiting - This one's not too bad either. Good year for Franti overall? Hope y'all are ready for two more Franti songs in 2010 ;) (there's TWO versions of Hey World too for some reason, both are on the album so I'm just gonna use the one with more streams)
96: Heaven - Ew this is bad. I'm not super well-versed in OAR, but like...I thought they were better than this.
95: From the Clouds - Idk, I do actually like Jack Johnson's work in the 2000s for the most part, but everything post You and Your Heart is kinda garb. This is so boring, the guitar riff is all I really remember about it.
94: Honeypot - Speaking of boring. Both Bob Schneider songs on this list are completely fine and inoffensive, and yet I've never experienced the emotion of "why would I ever choose to listen to this literally ever" stronger than listening to this song.
93: Sydney (I'll Come Running) - James took the "nails on a chalkboard" comment right out of my mouth
92: Father's Son - Huh, didn't expect this to finish in the bottom 10? I kinda liked this one, it's a cool little track.
91: Hey Mama - Nahhhh. I didn't realize how much of a AAA superstar Mat Kearney was until recently. Ships in the Night was a cool discovery, only recently learned that I've known Nothing Left to Lose is a song I've known about for decades but never knew what it was or who performed it. But uh this track is no good, for the better I had never heard it til now.
90: Fixin' to Die - Never been a big fan of Glove or his "special sauce", but this is among the better songs I've heard from them? Song doesn't feel very complete to me, very repetitive, but it is catchy.
89: Comeback Kid - For Brett Dennen, this one's okay. I think it's a little catchy and tolerable enough to listen to when I'm stuck hearing it on J.C. Penney radio (which is where I first discovered this song a decade ago in high school & liked it enough to search it up at home for some reason)
88: Light You Up - It's fine. Chorus is decent, the iconic talk-singing is still questionable a decade after Lullaby though.
87: Brand New Day - There's some semblance of a decent piece of AAA power pop here, but the vocals and...rapped bridge do not do this song any favors. Idk who Trevor Hall is, I thought he was a reasonably big act when I saw this song on the list but uh this is the only song he ever charted with, so guess not.
86: Faster - Nahhhhhh. This is annoying. I think I liked a Matt Nathanson song in the last AAA RD we did, but for the most part this guy does not make the most likable music, to put it lightly

90: Fixin' to Die - Never been a big fan of Glove or his "special sauce", but this is among the better songs I've heard from them? Song doesn't feel very complete to me, very repetitive, but it is catchy. Glove instead of G. Love. Intentional or not this is quite hilarious. You add the "special sauce" to his glove and this becomes a PG-13 rankdown.

There have been times where Robert hasn't sounded tired and like he's going through the motions in these modern day AAA RDs...but they are fleeting moments.

"Reeve Carney: Debut"
Given his performance here, it's not surprising that we don't hear from him again.

Smooth enough instrumental, doesn't insult my intelligence, it gets a pass from me.
Given the first instinct was to bust out laughing at the song title and artist combo, fairly impressive work to pull that off.
