By that I mean… if I have a column named ‘special’ and rows that are marked 1 in that column would appear at the top of the results, even if the ORDER BY clause would list them elsewhere.

    You can put multiple columns in an ORDER BY clause

    SELECT * from your_table ORDER BY special DESC, date_col DESC
