Top 10 Country Singles
Kenny Chesney is enjoying his fifth week in the No. 1 spot thanks to "Summertime," while Brad Paisley patiently sits in the No. 2 spot with "The World." Carrie Underwood's "Don't Forget To Remember Me" jumps a spot to No.3. Toby Keith's latest single, "A Little Too Late." lands at No. 4, while Phil Vassar's "The Last Day Of My Life" dropped two spots to land on No. 5. Rodney Atkins' "If You're Going Through Hell (Before The Devil Even Knows)" hit No. 6. "When The Stars Go Blue," by Tim McGraw, dropped two spots to land on No.7 and Keith Anderson remains at No. 8 with "Everytime I Hear Your Name." No. 9 finds Gary Allan's "Life Ain't Always Beautiful," while rounding out the Top 10 is Rascal Flatts with "Me And My Gang." With Kenny Chesney losing spins, I will guess that Brad Paisley will become No. 1 next week.
Moving Up at the Speed of Light
There are two major movers this week. Taylor Swift's "Tim McGraw" jumped a total of twelve spots to land on No. 46, while Heartland jumped a total of fifteen spaces with their No. 42 song, "I Loved Her First."
