Top 10 Country Singles
Looks like another No. 1 week for Sugarland's "Want To." Meanwhile, Rascal Flatts' "My Wish" remains at No. 2 and Tim McGraw's "My Little Girl" stays at No. 3. No. 4 is "She's Everything" by Brad Paisley. Rodney Atkins' "Watching You" made a decent three-spot jump to No. 5, Carrie Underwood slid two spots to No. 6 with "Before He Cheats," and George Strait's "It Just Comes Natural" drops to No. 7. Montgomery Gentry's "Some People Change" is No. 8 and Taylor Swift's "Tim McGraw" advanced to No. 9. Jason Aldean closes out the Top 10 with "Amarillo Sky." With Rascal Flatts and Sugarland losing spins and Brad Paisley gaining, I think Brad Paisley just might make it to the top next week
Moving Up at the Speed of Light
Carrie Underwood's latest release, "Wasted," advanced a total of eight spaces to land at No. 51, but Little Big Town didn't want to be outdone. The group's version of "Go Tell It On The Mountain" hit No. 47, meaning a ten spot advance this week.
The Latest Tunes To Hit The Air Waves
Three songs hit the air waves for the first time this week: Carolina Rain's "Isn't She" at No. 59, No. 53's "Missing You" by Alison Krauss (with John Waite), and "Moments" by Emerson Drive at No. 49.

Rodney Atkins' If You're Going Through Hell breaks the cycle by advancing a single spot to No. 7, while Brad Paisley takes a tumble by having his album, Time Well Wasted, drop to No. 8. Kellie Pickler is remains at No. 9 with Small Town Girl and No. 10 finds Tim McGraw's Greatest Hits Volume 2: Reflected.
