Re: Daily Song: The Fallen Angel
Alright. I rather see a ranking as a consequence (or translation) of a feeling, and not as a norm. If I'd want a certain amount of 1's then my ratings would be influenced by that norm.

I'm just constantly surprised that I am usually one of the lowest numbers (especially during the 90s which are my 4 least favorite albums).
This might have to do with the fact that most others do not see these 4 as their 4 least favourite albums. Most of them will have a better feeling about the bulk of those songs than you, the least good ones included.

Especially when a song like Fallen Angel, which many think is one of the weakest tracks on BNW, gets several 8s.
I do not think this one is the weakest so I can't speak for this particular track, but when people give an 8 for a weakest track they probably find the whole album tremendously good. I did this with Somewhere in Time, where I give Heaven Can Wait an 8. The least good song, but still better than Revelations, Where Eagles, Sanctuary, Drifter (the list goes on..). In my opinion that is.
So, apart from these different ranking methods, taste (and comparing with other songs) is still an important factor.
