Oof. We are saying goodbye to yet another nominator. Chinballz, you're number is up as this is your last nomination in the ranking. It does however place you temporarily in 1st place so you got that for the moment! I honestly am not sure how this song places this high because on the surface it annoys the f*** out of me. But... it is kinda catchy in any party situation and that gdamn beat does get my knee bouncing a little. But only just a little. Eurodance is a genre that almost anyone can find some interest in imo. With the right vocal tracks I actually find most Eurodance hard to resist. I got a few good examples in the ranking to come. Anyway, farewell Chinballz. I can't recall how many times you popped in but hopefully you'll get to see the rankings when I post your Nominator Review.

I used to think I knew who Genesis was but now I know I had no idea. I've never heard this song before but holy hell... 23 minutes!!! This is quite the story that appears to cover some sort of religous message up until 11 minutes in and then I don't know what the hell it's about. Maybe that's when the acid kicked in while the band was jamming out this tune? I thought the illustrated video for this song would shed some light but that ends up weird too. The song has received mostly mixed reviews from what I can see but the album itself appears to have a higher approval rate. I'm just glad that I'll never have to listen to this one again.

Getting back into this we jump into a decent 70's tune that I somehow slipped by all my life without ever hearing. I don't mind music from The Who but I don't really go out of my way to hear their work. I had trouble digging up positive stuff about this song but it sounds like something that should have been popular in the 70's for sure. It has sort of an Epic feel to it but I don't feel like there is much story here with the repetitive lyrics. The more I listen to the song though the more it begins to charm me a little but... not quite enough for me to bump it from where it has landed unfortunately.

A double whammy for the 70's and another kick in the chinballz. Sad Wings of Destiny was another cassette tape that I had procured in my collection in the old days that I don't think I ever really paid much attention to and I can't really recall if I ever listened to it honestly. Why would I collect something I had no intentions of listening to? I dunno really, OCD's maybe. Tbh, the only tapes I ever really listened to consistently were from my Weird Al collection. There is some fair shredding going on in this song but nothing really stands out imo.

Not the best Black Sabbath song I've ever heard tbh. I didn't really catch it during nominations but now that I review this song I realize it is three songs back to back to back. Can't complain though since I let the two part Megatron song through. I ranked this as though it was one full song despite overlooking that detail. When I pulled it up on youtube there really wasn't an indication that it was three songs as far as I remember and I only discovered it when I looked at the Album's track list. Why am I over explaining myself here? (Because I really don't have anything else to say about this song.)

Pretty sure this was included in one of the GTA games. I definitely feel like I've been speeding around completing missions and such with this in the background. As a matter of fact it was a golf course mission that comes to mind so this has to be from Vice City. It isn't too bad of a beat but it's rather dull overall and not very exciting. I've heard it a few times growing up but never really took notice like you would to a Top 40 hit or something.

Some decent guitar play going into this song. It's slightly gothic but almost all 80's metal in a figurative kind of way. Obviously it's literally 80's metal but hopefully that makes sense. If I were to have had no idea what decade this was from, I would have said the 80's is what I'm redundantly getting at. Anyway, I've seen plenty of promotional material for this band over the years but have barely heard much from them. Not sure I was ever specifically disinterested but I just didn't shop their section at the record store partially resulting in my lack of experience with them.

Umm.. so here I kinda have the opposite feeling of Ranking Regret where I think something should be much lower. I mean the score is accurate so this placement is right but there are several songs that have already been ranked that I feel like "on the surface" are better songs to listen to but then again it doesn't just come down to whether or not I can tolerate listening to a song. This is an ok song and it sounds like it should be a classic but the whole thing is under par imo. The band is/was semi-popular in Canada though so it made it onto the ranking when I was scooping up some of the top international songs from the 80's.

This song has a fun riff that catches my ear almost immediately. It seems that it'd be easy to learn and I like a good toe tapper from time to time. It really isn't that often that I give anything Country related a chance but Country Rock is among the most tolerable Country for me. This dude has been making music for quite some time and I actually thought this was from the 70's or 80's when hearing it for the first time. I was kinda shocked to see that it came out just 5 years ago.

Ok then. Had to change the video due to a copyright claim. Coulda sworn I had the official music video selected the first time around but I guess I didn't. If I were changing scores at this point I'd probably bump up the Beat and Hook here as the more I listen the "Better" they get imo. :P
Anyway, this might actually be the most recent favorite of GnR of mine (since honestly most of their other stuff sounds like they should have hung up their guitars and retired by now to me). The band can't top their significance in the 90's imo. The band still has a decent following of course even though it didn't get them to the top of the charts on this one. I thought it was funny to learn that the music video was delayed (missing a slated release) by none other than Lars Ulrich from Metallica who had given pre-authorization to use his image in the video but then later only signed off on one appearance forcing a video edit. I used to love Metallica above all else but the last couple of decades have proven that Lars is nothing but a self-righteous f***wit so I'm not too surprised here.

Oh geesh. I'm gonna be honest with you all again here. I was never a big fan when Santana had his most major popularity spree in the late 90's. I love that he can absolutely rock the guitar but I found most of his collaborations to be less than thrilling. I do like some of his original work but none of that made it into the ranking so I guess it doesn't say that much. I wonder what Santana felt like having to play next to Whitey Ford considering the two play at dramatically different speeds on a regular basis. Ford's tunes are usually simplistic in chord progression while Santana's fingers dance all over the fret board. They did it though and the result is ok. That's all I'll give it for credit here.

Snake's gonna give me s*** for this one lol. I honestly didn't think that I'd drop a Metallica song below 1,000 other songs but here we are and here we go.. There is a ton of Metallica that I love but in the last couple of releases I've sort of become distant with the band. Or hell I might as well be honest here. I lost interest when they dumped Newsted. I think it was the worst thing that could have happened to the band post Burton. I don't even know the name of the newest band member and really don't care to know tbh. This song just doesn't measure up to the iconic tunes the band is more known for imo. Luckily I wasn't too restrictive on the number of songs per band and there will be a healthy dose of Metallica's best peppered throughout further up the list.

Because of unfamiliarity I sort of feel like this fell through the cracks in the opposite direction. On the surface I don't mind the beat and vocals but as a whole package it isn't necessarily a song I would listen to on a regular basis. The message of the song makes a bit of sense for me so it got some points there. Unfortunately it was right now when I realized that this song was used in Blair Witch 2 so it should have gotten atleast a point or so in the memories category since I've had to watch that movie a few times with the wife. (She's a horror buff and every year I have to slog through many of her horror favorites which include many B-rated sequels). Anyway, there are some obvious reasons this made it higher than I was expecting but I can't help that it feels like I should have had it lower than some tunes I've already dropped.

Right off the bat this pulls me in because it sounds like or reminds me of rather, a wonderful RPG by the name of Lost Odyssey that I have completed 4 times and might be ready for a 5th playthrough tbh. It might even re-appear later as a ranking regret but for now I gotta battle my bias and stick with how it made me feel during the scoring process. It's clear though that unfamiliarity will be this tune's downfall this time around. I really gotta tweak that part of the criteria if I do this again in the future. Anyway, yeah damn.

The first thing I think of when I hear this song is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and I can never shake it. I logged in nearly 1,000 hours into that game and frequently when rampaging across town with this blaring in the background not to mention that it plays during the loading screen of the game. I think it's funny that Ice Cube is singing about having a great day and getting stoned etc. while the original cut/length of the song is 4:20. That isn't evident in the version here unfortunately but that is because the video I had got taken down for some reason. It's a nice beat and one of my favorites from Ice Cube even though I admittedly don't listen to too much of his work. I do love nearly every movie he is in though so that should make up for it I suppose.

I really like the melody of this tune and it features Snoop Dogg which is kinda cool. The chorus can get a bit whiny in repeated listens but it can easily be overlooked. The sex appeal in the video here though is through the roof and I've been distracted a few times by some of the choreography lol. This is the first ranking of an Akon song but if you are a fan don't worry I got 2 more to come. I haven't sampled a ton of Akon's discography but he tends to get into the beats of his tunes. The 00's are dropping slower than any of the other decades and we are still outside of the Top 160 for this one so you might be able to discern that there will be lots of good songs from the decade to come if I'm dumping hits like this one already.

A blast from the past for sure and one of the few successful hits of the famous Africa creators; Toto. It's kind of amazing to me how many people have heard Africa and know Toto performed it but cannot name another song by the band. This song actually did pretty well considering. I don't really know if I can relate to the message but it's a love song sort of I guess. I always think this song is from the 80's because when I think of Toto I immediately think of the 80's. It's sort of weird knowing close to nothing about a band that impacted almost all of my youth with a single song but it is what it is. Sorry for the short write-up on such a classic tune.

Kicking off a 12 song run of 7.214 pointers we have I think the only nomination from Corrik who offered the nomination as a filler tune which I think I had to place on Alanna's list because it hadn't been filled all the way. Not sure if he suggested it as a serious nomination or a joke but it's here and surprisingly it has climbed a decent distance up the list. Personally I really kinda hate this song. It's just so dumb sounding to me that I would normally glaze over it for selection on any list that I'd compile. Unfortunately for you Alanna, this brings you down to 3 nominations remaining but it does bump you into the 1st place position in the Nominator Challenge atm.

Interesting that this is only the 2nd Grunge Rock song to make an appearance in the ranking but I do say imo, must be one of the grungiest rock songs ever created. It's one of the most depressingly melancholic songs I've ever heard too tbh. My wife is a pretty big Chris Cornell fan though and this was one of her favorite high school themes. Should I be worried about that? lol j/k. She just hung out with a bunch of metal heads. There were a lot of them in her school for some reason but it could have been worse I guess. She could have been practicing witchcraft or something to which there actually were a crazy number of goth girls at my high school oddly enough. Glad I chose not to date local lol. Wth.

Not to be confused with Ed Sheeran's Photograph song is a classic from the 80's and a decent one at that. It topped some charts and is considered one of the top 500 hard rock songs of all time according to a couple of sources. It is only 1 of 2 Def Leppard songs included in this ranking. I never was a big Def Leppard fan but there is at least one tune I like better than anything else they have done and at least you'll get to hear that later on. I don't remember which films they were but I definitely recall hearing this used in a few movies. Hot Tub Time Machine was possibly one of them. Anyway, I'm not saying much here that can be called useful knowledge so I'll just move on.

The final appearance of Grand Funk Railroad makes it's way here and I'm not entirely sure I agree with the order of the 3 songs I included. I feel like I like Some Kind of Wonderful more but according to the score The Locomotion reigns supreme. Anyone who's ever gone to a roller skating rink in the 80's and 90's has most assuredly heard this song. Everybody was doing the Locomotion in my experience anyway. I probably just grew up in a corny neighborhood or something lol. I thought it was a popular thing anyway and it did top the charts so there is that. This song has also become another milestone in the ranking as the 60th Hard Rock tune to drop and thus far the most crowded genre on the list.

Here's a really fun and cheerful tune if I'm being completely honest. The beat is nice and bass really sounds great in the car but I have a funny story to tell here. First of all for those of you that do not know, I'm like 75% deaf in my left ear and about 20% in the right so hearing isn't really my strong suit. Anyway for the longest time until I could finally tune into the singer's dialect I could have sworn that he was finding himself a "Jelly Bear" lol. I don't know why but it was an embarrassing moment with the wife when I sang out the incorrect lyric this one time. It's definitely one of her favorite songs of this decade but she now can't help herself but ask me every time this song comes on "Hey did you find any Jelly Bears". So if you are wondering why I didn't rank it higher its because it lost quite a bit of appeal to me just for the sheer amount of taunting I got from my wife lol. I swear we heard the song like once a day for a year. >_>

Hey 2005 finally breaks into the 5 point zone. This is the most mediocre point of the decade imo so it might surprise some of you that I am dumping such a great tune here. The first and only song to drop by Hinder here in the ranking. It's a really great tune but Hinder isn't really a band that I ever branched off on. I couldn't honestly give you a breakdown of their top 10 songs as I simply couldn't list them. Of course I could look them up, give a listen and then pass an opinion on to you but tbh. Absolutely nothing else of theirs ever crossed my ear drums. They are basically a one-hit-wonder in my experience. Interestingly enough though, this song was played a ton on the radio and still does get played a bunch more than 10 years after it's release. It's so odd that I haven't heard anything else from them... oh wait hold the phone. This is actually the 2nd song of theirs I've ranked rofl. Wow. Sorry for the oversight there. What's more sad is I can't even remember off the top of my head which other song it is that I ranked. *facepalm

The 7th Folk Rock song to come your way is a classic without a doubt. Many folks get emotioal when they hear this song but really they get emotional when they hear any John Denver song am I rite? I'm kind of in the middle left. It can get me emotional but it's gotta be the right scenario which I'm rarely ever in as a grown male adult *cough. Anyway, John could really play some melancholic stuff back in his day. This song climbed the charts at a pretty steady pace but didn't take off at first. It took some time but once the album started to get around it was inevitable. I absolutely love a good folk artist because what they can do with a guitar is magical. The notes dance in your head like nothing else in my experience. I can close my eyes and listen to the back track of a large majority of folk rock and fall into a trance. Hopefully that doesn't make me weird lol.

This is a serious trip back to 1997 that weirdly makes me think of 1999 when Ryan Phillipe and Sarah Michelle Gellar were in their obvious primes. I can't think of anything else but Cruel Intentions when I first hear this song it's weird. Does that happen to anyone else? Anyway, this band really screwed their pooch with this song as they were not given legal permission to sample the main riff of the song from Andrew Loog Oldham's song which hilariously enough was a cover of a Rolling Stones' song. After the court was finished with the band they were bankrupt and Mick Jagger and Kieth Richards bankrolled the profits and got songwriting credits of The Verves' song itself. Bummer. It must have sucked to be them. They were able to produce a 4th and final album to date 11 years later but that must have been one hell of a kick to their egos considering how long it took them to regroup and give it another shot.

Finally a Hip Hop song that can serve as a little bit of an example of what direction I like my Hip Hop to lean. I dig a good beat but if it sounds hollow after a long listen like there could be more depth to the rhythm... it kinda bugs me. I feel sort of cheated for taking the time to listen. That probably sounds foolish since it's obviously a great beat but I need a bit more Melody. I'm not so sure it reels me in lyrically though and that main chorus sounds awkward to me for some reason. I had actually never heard of the band until they appeared on my list of songs to rank which is funny because I'm not really sure how it landed on the list. It did get competitive with the bottom half of the list which is neat but unfortunately if there are any fans out there, this is where I disappoint you and drop the song.

First of all this song rocks. It grabs my attention almost immediately but sadly it sounds whiny leading up to the chorus which really cramps my interest. I've actually got a few great examples of the band's work on the list that we'll get to hear later so don't think my dropping of this tune here means I dislike the band. I don't really have a problem hearing this song in most settings but it isn't one of those motivational tunes I use when I need to drone out and get some work done. It did ok on the charts but wasn't what made Breaking Benjamin popular I can assure you. We'll get to the tune that I feel made their careers but you might have to wait a while lol. (I promise I'm determined to finish this ranking before the new year so it isn't that long)

So... no one laugh at me. I've finally done it. We've now added Teen Pop to our genre pool. >_> But that does bring us up to a whopping 111 genres in all which is quite possibly more than anyone entering this topic would have imagined (myself included). I did not adequately anticipate the distance that I would branch out into the music-verse but I am completely and pleasantly satisfied with the results of my exploration. Anyway, this song is annoyingly catchy. If high pitched notes and jarring vocals aren't your thing these kind of songs can be notes from hell. Occasionally I get caught up in the beat of one of these tunes because my kids do. I think it's fine. Right? Yeah, it's totally ok as long as your kids are listening to it lol. I am honestly drawn in by the main acoustic riff that carries most of the song though. It's a good melody and a joyful amount of harmonization.

I once got connected with this tune during the Guitar Hero craze and loved to play it a serious amount. It was fun on expert and tricky exercise for my fingers. I found that Guitar Hero was at least useful for one thing and it was that. It kept my fingers agile and made reaching for chords a lot easier when I played around with my actual guitar. Anyway, this was always one of the tunes I liked to imagine I were playing for real and you actually got a little satisfaction after nailing it on the fastest speed. I don't know a ton about the band specifically but I do remember there being an issue with the writer and co-writer of the song. Apparently the dispute was over the solo/segway of the song but I'm not sure 100%. Regardless the song became a hit and one of the most successful songs by the band. I generally will listen to this song all the way through whenever I have the opportunity to hear it just for the fact that I like a variety of instrumentals.

Is anyone surprised after hearing this song that Darius Rucker would eventually become a Country star? Not me. The twang in his voice says it all. He was clearly in tune with his interest in heartland vocalization pretty early on imo. I remember when this was a big hit though and it played on most radio stations. This was actually the 2nd song from Cracked Rear View to climb the charts but unfortunately never made it to the top although it did get very close. The album would go on to become one of the best selling albums of all time and was for sure Hootie's best of their careers. Even though there are 4 people credited with the writing of this song it was Darius that once claimed he wrote the song in a single sitting after a short bout of musical meditation. (He listened to "She Talks to Angels" by the Black Crowes supposedly and some Bonnie Raitt) I wonder what the rest of the band thought about that statement when he made it 14 years after the songs' release.

Talk about some energetic Emo lol. So to start, I honestly shouldn't be dropping this song this low but there are obviously a couple of reasons why I am. I've heard it a bazillion times it feels like but the year of it's release wasn't the best time in my life and I was experiencing a multitude of drastic changes at that point. I was now married and had my first kid and a bunch of family on both sides of the aisle that were heavily against the fact. Like, why in the f*** do families always think that they know what is best for one of their kin when their lives are far from perfect. Can't they just f***ing support you without passing judgement that they themselves aren't qualified to give? Anyway, I was in search of a job that I didn't hate and one that paid a fair supportive wage while trying to figure out if marriage and fatherhood was the right choice. I used to literally go for a drive just to zone out and listen to music to try and get my head back in a more confident place and I'd always hear this song which would end up having the opposite effect by making me more angry and depressed lol. I understand the bands' gimmick and recognize the greatness in their songs but the stressed vocals or maybe the decibels in the lead singers voice were always just a hair outside of comfortable listening for me. Still a decent song though.

Hmm it seems we still have some more 2010's to rank. I'm kinda curious what the next decade will bring but I sure as hell hope that the age of pop takes a rest. I'd love to go back to another healthy streak of Nu Metal. I always thought this was a Beiber song tbh. It sure sounds like something that'd be in his early career anyway. I kinda feel like we've had more than a few songs drop already that should have performed better than this but I'm going through the score and it's pretty close to how I feel in each category, weird. Oh well. We'll run with it and see where it ends up lol. As a result of this ranking we have finally come to the Top 700 songs! I'll get some stats up and we'll continue the countdown in a few days. :P

Hello Everyone,

Just a few words before we dive into the top 700 songs in the ranking.

The next 200 songs or so are gonna be interesting. There are a ton of popular tunes heading your way and a fair variety that may appease to a majority of the followers at this point. (you presumably made it through the bottom 600 at least am I rite? ...it's definitely not gonna be worse lol)

Anyway, you may even have been waiting to hear some of these songs as there really are a lot of favorites here. It's where I may have the chance to pull some of you in as we wind the list down to the melodies that I consider the Best of the Best.

Thank You to anyone that has been following and I appreciate the support. You guys don't have to be so quiet though so don't be afraid to comment on your favorite songs when they come up!

And on we go...

Song: "In Bloom"
Band: Nirvana
Album: Nevermind

Write-Up:
Jumping back in, we have one of Nirvana's more popular tunes. I don't know why but I just never became a fan of this song. I mean, it's good n' all but I couldn't listen to this all the time. I don't mind some Grunge but this is among the grungiest imo. The song is basically a note about fans of the song who don't understand the band's message which is kinda funny to me for some reason. Something interesting about the song is that it was originally recorded with a bridge that the producer by the name of Butch Vig literally had cut out from the master tape with a razor and tossed in the garbage. I wonder if that version is available somewhere. I'm kinda curious what was cut out...

Remind me how nominator score is determined?

azuarc posted...

Remind me how nominator score is determined?

The total of your song placements from 0-1300 on the full ranking divided by the total of your song placements from 0-260 on the decade specific rankings.

If you think of the score as a "margin of error", the smaller the number the better your list is overall imo.
---

Wait, why is it divided by the decade ranking? Isn't that a factor that's almost, essentially, evenly distributed and would probably place each song at the same relative point on each? Like, if I nominated a song that was in your 50th percentile on both lists, that would end up being treated the same as a song that was in your 90th percentile on both or a song in your 10th percentile on both.

Like, I guess it can deviate a little if you really liked one decade over another, but not only have you been very even-minded about that so far, but it also has nothing to do with the nominator themselves.
---

Should probably tag with the account I'm using at the moment.
