StreetAngel, you didn't add Doing The Best to the new totals. It should be right about FFG with 38 points, I think.

Oh, I would like to! But I totally don't understand at all. Not a bit! I have numerical dyslexia, and it looks like you really have a way with tabulating and counting that's way over my head. So, I don't know if this will help or can be added to your figures, but based on the songs you have listed, I am going to vote for 5 of them, in order of preference... If these can be added to your rankings, please do so.
1. I Can't Wait
2. Doing The Best That I Can
3. Gold And Braid
4. Fall From Grace
5. Edge of 17

I so don't understand this that it intrigues me. And I wish 'Sleeping Angel' were on your list, because that would have been # 1 for me. I seem to remember a ranking thread from long ago and I imagine a lot of what I might have voted for has been eliminated in prior threads, which probably also explained your methodology- which would have also gone over my head

So, just thought I'd visit once and see what your figures wind up being whenever you finish.

Thank You for the link! You explained it very clearly, and I admire your brainpower, I sometimes am fascinated by that which I can't grasp, and I should try harder.
But it hurts my a.d.d., it hurts my everything

I'll lurk, with interest in your results. It's really impressive, the system you've devised, very impressive. All you smart people have fun with it!
I bet you can do spread sheets too.
...I can balance my checkbook, unless exactness counts!

Fall From Grace - 90
I Can´t Wait - 80

If I Were You - 29
Battle Of The Dragon - 26
Wild Heart - 20
Nightbird - 17
Blue Lamp - 14
