Please PM me a list of draft participant names ranked 1 to 15, where #1 = favorite list, and 15 = least...

Please do not include your own list in the rankings.

I will use the rankings for playoff seedings going forward, but go with your preferences.

Figured I'd add my leftover list. These are in no particular order, and my list was far from extensive, but these are the unpicked leftovers I was still considering (song titles are links):

  1. "I Put a Spell on You" -- She + Him
  2. "Across the Universe" -- Fiona Apple
  3. "Compared to What" -- John Legend & The Roots
  4. "Take on Me" -- Reel Big Fish
  5. "Love Song" -- 311
  6. "Casanova" -- Rebirth Brass Band (this one's got language)
  7. "Sad Songs and Waltzes" -- Cake
  8. "Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town" -- Cake
  9. "Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps" -- Cake
  10. "Tonight You Belong to Me" -- Fiona Apple
  11. "Down Town" -- The B-52s
  12. "Cold Cold Heart" -- Norah Jones
  13. "Let Me Roll It" -- Fiona Apple
  14. "I Put a Spell on You" -- Nina Simone
  15. "Stand By Your Man" -- Lyle Lovett (no idea on the picture)
  16. "Staggolee" -- Pacific Gas & Electric
  17. "Shout Sister Shout" -- The Boswell Sisters
  18. "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" -- Sons of the Pioneers
  19. "Crying" -- k.d. lang
  20. "Black Coffee" -- k.d. lang
  21. "Heart Full of Soul" -- Chris Isaak
  22. "Pure Imagination" -- Fiona Apple
  23. "Oompa Loompa" -- Harry Connick, Jr.
  24. "Bare Necessities" -- Harry Connick, Jr.
  25. "I Wanna Be Like You" -- Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
  26. "Wild Horses" -- The Sundays
  27. "I Want Candy" -- Bow Wow Wow
  28. "Fly Me to the Moon" -- Astrud Gilberto
  29. "Sunshine Superman" -- Mel Torme (yes, seriously)
  30. "Sympathy for the Devil" -- Guns 'N Roses (this is a horrible cover, but I've always liked it for reasons unknown)
  31. "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" -- Bessie Smith
  32. "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" -- Louis Jordan (for a while I was considering a list with at least two versions of each cover)
  33. "Lazy Bones" -- Harry Connick, Jr.
  34. "Tramp" -- Otis Redding & Carla Thomas
  35. "Down in the Valley" -- Otis Redding
  36. "Land of 1000 Dances" -- Wilson Pickett
  37. "Mustang Sally" -- Wilson Pickett
  38. "You Keep Me Hangin' On" -- Wilson Pickett

If I have one regret it's that I played Sophie's Choice with the Redding and Pickett options for so long that I ended up with neither artist on my list.
