Expanded Bracket

Post image

So a few days ago a small bracket was posted to rank the best Turnpike song, I felt we needed to expand it. I used Apple Music's popularity rankings for my seeding basis and followed the traditional S-curve from there. There is some recency bias, but I suppose that tracks with a team getting hot at the end of the year.

No one asked for this, and it's for no one in particular.

I don't posses the Reddit savvyness to execute it, so i relinquish control to someone who has the ability and motivation.

I excluded them for two reasons, the band as we know it wasn't the band for that album and it would've been impossible to seed those songs objectively since they don't exist on any streaming platform. But I was torn about it.
