Top 10 Country Singles
Billy Currington surprisingly captured the No. 1 spot this week with his song, "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right." At least George Strait jumped five spaces to No. 2 with "She Let Herself Go" and Garth Brooks landed on No. 3 with "Good Ride Cowboy." No. 4 finds "Come A Little Closer" by Dierks Bentley. American Idol winner Carrie Underwood's song, "Jesus, Take The Wheel," jumps three spots to No. 5, Joe Nichols' "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off" drops three spots to land at No. 6, while Kenny Chesney's "Who You'd Be Today" hits No. 7, and Trace Adkins' "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" jumps two to No. 8. Toby Keith's "Big Blue Note" dropped to No. 9, and Little Big Town moves into the Top 10 with No. 10's "Boondocks." With Garth Brooks losing spins and Billy Currington and George Strait gaining, I will guess George will take over the top spot next week.
Moving Up at the Speed of Light
Jo Dee Messina's song, "I'm Not Going Down," jumped seven spots to No. 43, while LeAnn Rimes' Something's Gotta Give" hopped nine space landing on No. 44. The biggest song jump this week is by Kenny Rogers. His song, "I Can't Unlove You," went from No. 59 to No. 49 - a total of ten spots.
