George Strait - "It Just Comes Natural"
They don't call George Strait "The King" for nothing. This song is really moving up the charts, sitting at No. 18 this week.
Jason Michael Carroll - "Alyssa Lies"
Jason Michael Carroll has a true winner here with the tender ballad, "Alyssa Lies." The song moves up four spots to No. 28 this week.
Brooks & Dunn - "Hillbilly Deluxe"
Brooks & Dunn's title track to their latest album hasn't charted yet, but it's picking up a lot of spins, and I expect to see it appear next week in the Top 40. This song is scheduled to be released this week, as you can see from my Country Single Releases article.
Rodney Atkins - "Watching You"
I thinks Rodney Atkins has another Top 5 song on his hands. Maybe even another No. 1. This song moves up two spots to No. 23 this week. You can watch the video for the song, which features Rodney's son.
The Wreckers - "My, Oh My"
You would never have know that The Wreckers had ever been anything other than country with this tune. The song remains at No. 27, but is bulleted, and I expect it to be closer to the Top 20 next week. Listen to the Audio and watch the video.
Montgomery Gentry - "Some People Change"
While the song has slowed down a bit, it's on the verge of the Top 10, sitting at No. 11 this week. I don't expect it to be eligible for the Top 10 Hot Country songs list, as it's sure to be in the Top 10.
Craig Morgan - "Little Bit of Life"
Craig's "Little Bit of Life" ists at No. 24 this week, but is bulleted, and may be in the Top 20 next week. His album is fantastic, and will definately be one of my Top 10 Albums of the Year this year.
Clay Walker - "Fore She Was Mama"
Clay moves up five spots to No. 37 this week, and still chugging along. I haven't heard of a release for his first album on Curb Records yet, but it should be out sometime next year.
Darryl Worley - "I Just Came Back From The War"
Darry's album, Here and Now is due out later this month, and this single is off to a good start. It hasn't charted yet, but I expect it to do so next week.
Gary Allan - "A Feelin' Like That"
Gary's "A Feelin' Like That" has been on the chart for two weeks now. It picks up seven spots, landing at No. 47 this week. The song is from his upcoming unnamed album, due out next February.
