Will the other Kelly albums get a rankdown redo at some point? It seems like it's been so long since we've done a Kelly rankdown. Or perhaps we do her Greatest Hits, or duets, or something? Personally, re-doing individual album rankdowns wouldn't be something I'm particularly interested in. I would prefer to do a rankdown for non-album singles & collabs or even better (since I'm a fan of championships and all-star themes) a collective rankdown of the top 5s on each album, to see which song is the ultimate supreme (the best of the best)! There's always the possibility of the middle ground singles rankdown solution, but the best singles have made the top 5s on each album anyway, so this combination could give the album cuts a chance to shine again too! We could do something like this in the fall, since I'm saving the summer for some more... tortured & poetic projects  |

I'll be honest, I had no idea this was a competition, so to have "won" this is quite amusing to me. Glad "magic" got its flowers though, such an amazing song!!! Thanks for putting this all together born ! |

I'm happy with Magic being #1. I was pleasantly surprised to see a lot of my rankings had a similar flow as most everyone else apparently. This was a hard one to rank because there were really no hits, and several that just weren't there sonically with several instant skip tracks. I just hope she works with bigger pop producers in the future. These last 2 albums have been fun letting Kelly have more creative control. But I haven't really liked either, so hopefully Atlantic will take a more active role in helping get Kelly hit records produced by the right people. I'd love to see her go back to her roots with a pop rock sound with MELODIES, which the last 2 albums have seriously lacked.

I knew that's right was going to be out early. This is an anthem, that chorus especially is a VIBE. :goes to the ocean to sink my toes in: I think my biggest problem with this song is it doesn't fit on the album. It just seems so out of place. I rarely listen to it and like most (maybe all) of the deluxe tracks better. I'm surprised Down to You didn't make it top 5. I'm also surprised Mine was so high. I love it (ranked it as 4) but when it was released, it seemed like most didn't like it. |

I get that, and part of the reason why I enjoy it so much (and the fact that it’s the last song on the track list) is it feels like she finally got past everything and is ready to move on. The rest of the tracks are all “in it” she’s feeling every emotion for the relationship…. That’s right is that moment when you realize I’m ok, I’m going to make it through |
