Top 10 Country Singles
As predicted, Heartland has their first No. 1 song with "I Loved Her First," while Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" jumped two spots to land at No. 2. Dierks Bentley remains at No. 3 with "Every Mile A Memory" and last week's No. 1 ("Would You Go With Me" by Josh Turner) dropped to No. 4. Kenny Chesney stays put with No. 5's "You Save Me,". Up a single notch is Keith Urban's "Once In A Lifetime" at No. 6. Rascal Flatts have a wish granted as "My Wish" moved to spot No. 7. "Want To," by Sugarland, is No. 8, George Strait's "Give It Away" is No. 9, and No. 10 is Tim McGraw with "My Little Girl." I will go out on a limb and predict Dierks Bentley will be in the No. 1 spot next week.
