Top 10 Country Singles
We have a brand new No. 1 this week as Dierks Bentley sneaks up into the top spot with "Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go.") Kenny Chesney falls to No. 2 with "Don't Blink," followed by Carrie Underwood's "So Small" which remains at No. 3, Garth Brooks' "More Than a Memory" which remains at No. 4, and Josh Turner's "Firecracker," which moves up three places to sit at No. 5 this week. George Strait's "How 'Bout Them Cowgirls" remains at No. 6, while Clay Walker's "Fall" drops two places to No. 7, followed by Jason Michael Carroll's "Livin' Our Love Song," which rises one place to sit at No. 8, and Taylor Swift, who also moves up one place, with "Our Song" at No. 9. Montgomery Gentry crack the Top 10 this week, moving up two places to do so, with "What Do Ya Think About That." Next week, I expect Carrie Underwood to earn her next No. 1, as "So Small" looks to be the next chart topper.
Moving Up at the Speed of Light
Brooks & Dunn's "God Must Be Busy" is tied for the fastest moving song this week, advancing nine places, from No. 44 to No. 35. Phil Vassar's "Love is a Beautiful Thing" also moves up nine, from No. 51 to No. 40. Lastly, James Otto's "Just Got Started Lovin' You" is the third song that moves up nine places, from No. 57 to No. 48 this week.

Martina has the Hot Shot Debut this week on Billboard, coming in at No. 48 with "For These Times," which is the song she performed on the CMA Awards telecast. Phil Vassar debuts at No. 51 with "Love is a Beautiful Thing."
