The lead single to the last place album has been kicked out. I am fuming, but goodbye, "You're Not the One" and goodbye Night Time, My Time. You DEFINITELY deserved better!
Sky Ferreira has come quite a way since her lead single "One". This time around she's talking about who is not the one. This song perfectly exemplifies Sky in a single track; it has elements of rock in the guitar-heavy production, but maintains a pop quality in the melody. As mentioned earlier, the song is quite anthemic for anyone who's fallen for someone without mutual feelings - ("just thinking about how much I need you but you really want somebody else"). This song is personally one of my favorites on the rate. Not to mention the music video, which the single cover is a still from, has Sky looking absolutely gorgeous. She was robbed from a top five position with both "You're Not the One" AND "I Blame Myself".

Charli is gracefully losing her lead as she takes another knockout with "Stay Away". The lead single (???) of True Romance edges out Sky's lead single by a single position. This is also the last with an 8+ average. Our top four all averaged 9+! The track is a pretty somber, synth-heavy song with a Charli edge. The chorus is my personal highlight of the song, as Charli pleads "won't you just stay away?" (here's to hoping she's not saying it to the guy she thought was the one in the earlier elimination, "You're the One"). Not my favorite song on the rate, but I understand the appeal.

Blueberry Mary's gonna troll Charli right out of the top spot, methinks.
3 of Blueberry Mary's only 4 tens were Charli songs ("You're the One", "What I Like", "Set Me Free"). His ranks for the top four, in no order, are 4, 6, 7 and 9. He certainly made it interesting!

Nuclear Seasons is polarizing. It's either the 4 or the 9.
glad it made top 5, wish I would have sent in ratings
