"I-I'm in the middle? I can't be that important. I'm on the bottom of the rankings. I have to be just tagging along with the more important people."

Wait, what? Where does rankings come into this? Music ranking? This hasn't been the first time Ivan's thought about rankings, and he's fairly sure it's not a music ranking. If it was, why would he be so confused about it each time he thought of the word? And why does he keep believing that he's at the bottom? Flowers Over Bones is doing well. They aren't on the bottom of anything. There are other musicians below them, the newer ones...

That's not it...
