The 2022 Year-End Alternative Chart Rankdown (REVEALING)

[Leo ✔]

Idk want want bops but thats where i am should've been the hit of the album

[Red]

I got into this particular Foals song a little bit more than "Wake Me Up", so it's only fitting that it's a little bit higher in the rankdown, too.

[willapted33]

the low ranks for this??

[maine]

Spoon is usually consistently good. Felt nice to hear them do a little something different for this one.

[Steel Sponge]

AAAAAAAAA why do I keep barely missing a perfect ranking?

[SHOOTER]

Several of y'all deserve jail. Or at least to not get laid this year.

I preferred "What's the Trick?", as it took Jack a bit out of his comfort zone, and this was just more of the same. That said, more of the same from Jack White is always welcome.

Sorry, SHOOTER.

Ready to see what ten songs made the top ten? We're going to reveal what songs made the top ten one by one in a few minutes!

[alexcuse]

If it were the live versions of the Jack White songs, they would be #99 and #100 respectively on my list. Watching him “perform” live at Iheartradio alter ego festival made me appreciate the studio version of these songs more compared to the bastardized versions live.

[Red]

The first song to make the top ten comes to us from a band that has made their fair share of top tens in the past. Welcome to the top ten, Death Cab.

...

wait, what's that

...

...oh boy.

Lol nice twist!

[narp]

It’s good, but I’m pretty sure every other song they’ve ever charted is better. That also includes Pepper which is currently charting.

1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9
10, 13, 19
22

[singingrulebritannia]

only 2 bottom 50s and it still couldn't push through, that's brutal

[Red]

Time to meet the last Mediabase extra, and hoo boy, it's a big one. Whereas we saw Kate Bush and Metallica make waves with old songs thanks to Stranger Things, this song's sudden boost in popularity comes to us from the Dark Knight himself. Also, hello, song that would have been a RFS song!

MEDIABASE EXTRA

You can rank this song on Active right now. At least it's not "Daylight"?

“They’re cancelling your feelings”

If you say so, Brent.

[Red]

Given that their song that made this rankdown made the top ten, I have to imagine this would have done pretty well, too. One of my favorite extras.

THE TOP TEN
Bob Moses - Love Brand New
Turnstile - Mystery
Cafuné - Tek It
The Killers - Boy
Florence + the Machine - My Love
Gorillaz f/ Thundercat - Cracker Island
My Chemical Romance - The Foundations of Decay
Sam Fender - Seventeen Going Under
Wolf Alice - Smile
The War on Drugs f/ Lucius - I Don't Live Here Anymore

Any surprises or disappointments in or just outside the top ten? Have predictions for the top ten order and/or winner? Post your thoughts below!

[wrip]

Honestly I’m not too sad to see Here To Forever just miss. I do enjoy it though, it’s just a solid tune! I have to say I’m honestly kind of shocked to see Turnstile make top 10, I was expecting them to be tanked harder!

1 3 5 6 7 8 10 12 24 36, honestly really content with this top 10! hoping that The Killers are low in the top 10.

Here is my top 10 prediction:
10. Turnstile - Mystery
9. The War on Drugs f/ Lucius - I Don't Live Here Anymore
8. The Killers - Boy
7. Gorillaz f/ Thundercat - Cracker Island
6. Bob Moses - Love Brand New
5. My Chemical Romance - The Foundations of Decay
4. Wolf Alice - Smile
3. Florence + The Machine - My Love
2. Sam Fender - Seventeen Going Under
1. Cafuné - Tek It

[Steel Sponge]

My remaining ten ranks: 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, 10, 15, 16, 26, 50

Top 10 predictions:

10. Cracker Island
9. Smile
8. Mystery
7. I Don't Live Here Anymore
6. The Foundations of Decay
5. Love Brand New
4. My Love
3. Seventeen Going Under
2. Tek It
1. Boy

Surprises: I Don't Live Here Anymore, Smile, Cracker Island (thought the very latter would've been a target to be tanked from the final ten)
Disappointments: All the four songs on my top ten that got tanked. Would've also liked to see Chaise Longue, Hardest Cut, and/or Wake Up making it.

My #1 made it to the top 10, so that's one thing I'm happy to see.
