PRE-REVEAL QUESTIONS: 1. Which song do you think will win? Your top 5 prediction? I think it'll be "magic" (maybe "lighthouse"), with magic, lighthouse, down to you, mine, and favorite kind of high being the top 5. 2. Which song do you think will place last? Your bottom 3 prediction? I think "you don't make cry" will be last, alongside "that's right" and...idk? "did you know" or "red flag collector"? (tasteless!) 3. Which song will be the most polarizing (highest SD)? "red flag collector" or "favorite kind of high" 4. Which song will be the least polarizing (lowest SD)? "magic" 5. Which deluxe version track will be eliminated first and which will be eliminated last? "you don't make me cry" and "roses" 6. Any other predictions? I'm about to be big mad.

PRE-REVEAL QUESTIONS: 1. Which song do you think will win? Your top 5 prediction? It's not my #1 but I think maybe "lighthouse" might take it (and I am not mad at that). 2. Which song do you think will place last? Your bottom 3 prediction? That River Rose song. 3. Which song will be the most polarizing (highest SD)? Probably "rock hudson". 4. Which song will be the least polarizing (lowest SD)? "magic" maybe. 5. Which deluxe version track will be eliminated first and which will be eliminated last? See #2. 6. Any other predictions? The deluxe tracks will probably all go out first (at least they should...).

Gather 'round people! We are going live :) Let's kick things off with #19! Make sure to pay attention to these teaser-posts between the reveals. The path is included so make guesses, celebrate, or even cry about the imminent elimination of your favorite song

I think pretty much no one is surprised by this being out first. Congrats to about a thousand people including myself for clearing their bottom spot ohmanthisdoesn'tsoundappropriate ...#19 right off the bat. A mini R.I.P. to Jamie who actually DID know that his #2 ranking was a major unpopular opinion!!! Well. Moving on!

But “did you know” is such a bop and “goodbye” is great 😭😭😭
I just need to remind myself it’s a phenomenal album and even tracks I ranked like 1-18 are all stuff I like listening to.

At #17 we see another deluxe track go out. This time it's "goodbye". Although it's not one of my personal favorites, I really enjoy her low range on this song. I gotta hand her her flowers there. Now let's see.. will y'all give the deluxe version a break anytime soon?

Well, no, apparently. This time, we say bye bye to "roses"! There's only one more deluxe track left and we still haven't seen any of the standard version songs! Do you think we'll go 5/5?

I remember thinking this rankdown would be one of the hardest ones I've done, and I'm not entirely surprised by the results so far. "did you know" deserved to be a tad higher but not a hill I'm willing to die on.
"goodbye" probably didn't deserve last place in my ranking, but tbh none of these songs do so. I ended up just picking the one I revist least for my #19.

I'm convinced "roses" would be much higher had it been on the standard edition as it deserved, but with a standard album that strong and the deluxe being such a throwaway release, I can't be too mad.
vv curious to see which standard cut gets knocked out first...

"Goodbye" made my top 10, but the rest of these were low ranks for me so I ain't mad about it.

I was also convinced “roses” would do better. And then the bottom 5 rankings started coming in and I was dumbfounded. I blame it all on the lack of familiarity. Certain standard tracks outlasting this is unacceptable🫣

I'm not made at the bonus tracks being out, with the exception of roses, none of them really belong on the album.
I feel like in a world without Flowers, had roses been the lead single it might have been a decent hit.

I’m 5 for 5! And I’m obviously very happy all of the bonus tracks are out. As a whole, they are nowhere near the quality of the standard edition. I suppose familiarity could be blamed, but I honestly can’t bring myself to give these tracks multiple listens, especially not when a whole exemplary album exists that I’d rather listen to instead. They made the right call with what made the cut.

I dunno...I would happily swap "high road" and "my mistake" for "roses" and "did you know" or "i won't give up" if it means we get our second fully-Kelly penned album. No shade to either of those songs but I ranked them lower mainly because Kelly didn't write them.

She does sing the shit out of it. I'll give you that. On a lesser album, it'd be a standout. On chemistry...it's really good.

But also, please remember this when you see what I ranked last... and also, in my defense, having never done one of these, I had no idea my spur of the moment choices would be made public. *hides*

Aaaaand we're back! Is anyone here? If I'm not mistaken, we got to #15 yesterday. Well, here's a fun fact! This next song got just ONE more point than #15! Which means that the all-deluxe bottom 5 could've easily been averted!
#14
