It's been a long while since I opened up an RD, huh? Well, we have done this for the past couple years, so let's do this again, shall we?
The RD includes the top 20 songs of the summer of the rock airplay charts, namely alternative airplay, mainstream rock and adult alternative. There are exactly 60 songs; I removed the songs that were lower on a particular format.
Rules:
1) Rank the songs listed below from #1 being your favorite and #60 being your least.
2) Private message me, @ bcl your rankings by the deadline. You are also allowed to message me via Discord, especially for those participating in the same RD over there.
3) Please listen to each song in full.
4) There are several songs with multiple versions available. Rank the version you prefer. So, for example, if you want to rank the Em Beihold remix of Stephen Sanchez's "Until I Found You", you are allowed to do so if you prefer that to the original. Likewise, I attached shortened edits of songs if possible - if you want to rank the original or album versions of the song if you prefer them, go ahead.
5) The due date for this shall currently be October 23. More than two weeks after the main Summer RD to give y'all more time to listen to the songs as it's three times the number of songs. There will be no extensions as I believe this is enough time for the RD to be finished.
6) As I am currently at a more intensive job than last year, expect the reviews to be a bit more sporadic than usual. But I will try to finish this before the year-end RDs start.
7) Regarding Kate Bush: RUTH is eligible for this RD as it's not the YE one. She won't be in 2022 Alt but we will probably recognize it when we open the thread by listing its chart performance and that it won the retro Alt RD it was on.
