Here Are All of Chris Young’s Number One Songs in His Catalog

/in , , /by

Here are all of Chris Young’s number one songs on country radio in his music catalog. The singer-songwriter has 13 number ones to his name.

Chris Young’s career began in 2006 when he took home first place in the fourth season of singing competition Nashville Star. This led to a recording contract with RCA records and the release of his self-titled debut album. From there, the rest is history. Young has released eight studio albums and 13 number one songs. Check out the full list below.

 

“Gettin’ You Home (The Black Dress Song)” – The Man I Want to Be

While Young’s debut album didn’t have any number ones, however, he came out swinging with his sophomore album The Man I Want to Be. Written by Young, Cory Batten, and Kent Blazy, “Gettin’ You Home (The Black Dress Song)” shows the world why Young was meant to become a star with his unique yet old school sounding vocals. It’s a classic romance song about a couple wanting to get back home after a date but the lyrics are presented in a classy way.

 

“The Man I Want to Be” – The Man I Want to Be

Written by Brett James and Tim Nichols, this was Young’s second number one song in a row. Everyone has a time in their life where they want to become a better version of themselves, whether in relationships, friendships, their career etc. This song is that journey through a conversation with God.

 

“Voices” – Voices

Marking his third consecutive number one, “Voices” is a true classic. While the track appeared on his sophomore album, it didn’t get the recognition it deserved until it appeared on the EP Voices in 2010. Written by Young, Chris Tompkins, and Craig Wiseman, it’s a song about no matter where you are, you’re never going to stop hearing your family’s advice in your head while going through important moments in life.

 

“Tomorrow” – Neon

“Tomorrow” was the singer-songwriter’s fourth consecutive number one. Written by Young, Anthony Smith, and Frank Myers this was the first single off the album Neon. It is an emotional track truly showcasing Young’s vulnerability as it is just him and a guitar.

 

“Who I Am With You” – A.M.

Written by Marv Green, Paul Jenkins, and Jason Sellers, “Who I Am With You” may be another country love song but with Young’s charm, it has its own unique sound. It shares a sign to look out for if you’ve found your person. That sign is you’ll want to be a better person for them, but you will also be comfortable showing them who you really are.

 

“I’m Coming Over”  – I’m Coming Over

Young wrote this song with Corey Crowder and Josh Hodge. When you end a relationship with someone, it’s hard to move on from them right away. That’s the story this song shares. The couple believes they should break up yet spends the night together. It may be a typical breakup song but Young’s pure vocals make it a hit.

 

“Think Of You” (Featuring Cassadee Pope) – I’m Coming Over

Another track written by Young, Crowder, and Hodge, this breakup song shows you that it’s ok to think of your ex while trying to navigate life without them. Young and Pope’s voices blend together perfectly throughout the chorus. The song recently resurfaced as a fun TikTok sound where users sing about being the life of the party but their lives have changed, reminding us what a hit it truly is.

 

“Sober Saturday Night” (Featuring Vince Gill) – I’m Coming Over

Written by Young, Brad Warren, and Brett Warren this was the third number one from Young’s fifth studio album. The title makes you believe the song is related to drinking but it’s actually about waking up alone and not being over a significant other. With the play on words and the combination of Young and Gill’s vocals, it’s no surprise this rose up the charts.

 

“Losing Sleep” – Losing Sleep

This was the first single off of Young’s 2017 album. Written by Young, Chris Destefano, and Josh Hodge, this song has a bit more of a pop sound compared to Young’s previous songs. However, it doesn’t steer too far away from Young’s traditional sound.

 

“Hangin’ On” – Losing Sleep

Young’s 11th number one song is “Hangin’ On”. The track was written by Young, Corey Crowder, and Josh Hoge. This goes back to a more traditional country sound. It’s a genuine love song about falling for someone and hanging on to the time you spend together and not taking it for granted.

 

“Famous Friends” (Featuring Kane Brown) – Famous Friends

After a bit of a hiatus, Young came out swinging with “Famous Friends” in 2020. It is an upbeat song that pays tribute to small-town nurses, teachers, and first responders. This was a great tribute to those who were not only heroes during the pandemic but continue to be heroes every single day. While this wasn’t the first time this duo teamed up, you can tell that Young and Brown had a great time reuniting. 

 

“At the End of a Bar” (Featuring Mitchell Tenpenny) – Famous Friends

Lucky number 13 came this past August. Written by Young, Tenpenny, and Chris DeStefano, “At The End of a Bar” is an incredible acoustic ballad about what you can find at the bar including friendships, relationships, etc. Tenpenny and Young bring their unique own sound to the table while also flowing together perfectly.

 

With 13 number ones, Young is certainly not slowing down.  With two new songs recently released and talks of an upcoming album, we can’t wait to see what is in store for Young this year.

/in , , /by

 Jordan Davis earns his fifth number-one song at country radio this week with his single, “What My World Spins Around.” Learn all the details here.

In our humble opinion, Jordan Davis’ talent is still extremely underrated. While the singer-songwriter has been garnering more and more fans over the last few years, his career has been a continuous trajectory, rather than an explosion to superstardom. We believe that the Country Swag 2018 Artist to Watch is going to make it to superstar status. This week, Davis secured his fifth number-one single at country radio with his anthemic song, “What My World Spins Around,” following the recent success of “Buy Dirt.”

Davis’ single is a combination of a love song and nostalgia. Throughout the verses, the singer shares all the things he loves about his life and his world. In the chorus, we learn that the love of his life is truly everything to him. Davis does all of that while making the song catchy too! The song won over fans and radio almost instantly with this killer tune.

“The way that it feels when you lean in and kiss me // The way that you dance when you get kinda tipsy // I’m wrapped ’round your finger like this ring I’m wearing // That look in your eyes, girl, when you catch me staring and // I don’t even know what it is but now that I found it // I can’t imagine me living without this // Back forty view on our piece of ground // Watching you watch the sun going down // That’s what my world spins around”

Congrats to Jordan Davis and his team on his fifth number one at country radio!

In just a few short months, the song has climbed up the charts, even making its way onto the rock charts too. “Son Of A Sinner” is one of those songs that is old fashion songwriting and storytelling, something that the country genre knows a thing or two about. Jelly Roll is a bonafide superstar, it is just a matter of time before everyone takes note of it.

“Now the past is out of sight and out of mind // Swore I changed, now I’m back chasing these white lines // I’m just a long-haired son of a sinner // Searching for new ways I can get gone // I’m a pedal to the highway // If you ever wonder why we write these songs”

/in , , /by

Jimmie Allen scores his 4th number one song at country radio this week with his single, “down home.” Learn all the details here.

Jimmie Allen is certainly on his way to becoming a household name. The talented country music singer-songwriter is known for creating music that speaks to his fan base, his positive personality, and of course his incredible, undeniable talent. Earlier this year, Allen shared a special song called “down home.” Today the track is the number one song at country radio.

Written by Allen with Cameron Bedell, Rian Ball, and Tate Howell, the song pays homage to the singer’s relationship with his father, who passed away in 2019. The soulful song is a relatable song about grief, love, and survival.

When Allen found out about the song’s radio success, he took to social media sharing a touching sentiment. “Shout out to my friends at Country Radio for supporting “Down Home”. It’s a song I wrote about my father. So glad to see people have connected with you. To everyone mourning the loss of someone you love, so sorry for your loss. Hold on to the good memories you made with them.”

He later shared, “Dear Dad, I knew you existed and now the world knows. Thank you country radio for helping me share my father’s memory.” In the same post, the singer also thanked his co-writers.

“I promise I’m working // With this guitar ’bout as hard as I can // I met a girl, bought a house // Put a nice little payment, down home // Is still there where my heart is // This down home kid is just how you left him // I still hate that you’re gone, I wish you were here // But I hope I’m making you proud // ‘Cause I know you’re up there looking down home”

A huge congrats to Jimmie and his team! This number one is definitely a special one.

Here Are All of Kane Brown’s Number One Songs in His Catalog

/in , , /by

Here are all of Kane Brown’s number one songs on country radio in his music catalog. The singer-songwriter has eleven number ones to his name.

We love reminiscing about all the great country music to hit country radio over the last few years. In this series, we’re looking back on the songs that made it to the top of the country airplay charts. Today, we’re highlighting songs in Kane Brown’s career that hit the number one spot.

 

 

 

“What Ifs” – Kane Brown

Brown’s third single was the first to top the charts for the young, rising star. The song features his friend and former classmate, Lauren Alaina. The two singers contemplate what their lives would be like if one of them made a move and initiated a relationship. This duet also reached the top spot on the Billboard Country chart as well.

 

“Heaven”- Kane Brown

This song was featured on the deluxe version of his debut album. Brown reflects on his relationship and the afterlife, doubting that Heaven will outdo the magic and simplicity of lying in bed with the love of your life.

 

“Lose It”– Experiment

This song was the lead single for Brown’s sophomore album. Brown mentions all the things he wants to lose—his cell phone, the directions to the party, the bobby pins holding up his girl’s hair, and the dress she is wearing—so that he and she could “lose it.” The pop-influenced production on this track uniquely blended with the fiddle, setting up the “experimental” music phase Brown was about to enter.

 

“Good As You” – Experiment

In this track, Brown simply sings about how great his wife is and how he strives to be as good as her one day. The music video, however, suggests this is an ode to his guardians, specifically his grandmother, who cared for him when he was young. 

 

“Homesick” – Experiment

In the final single off his sophomore album, Brown discusses his quick rise to fame and how hard it is being away from his wife while on the road. Like “Good As You,” the message is different than what the lyrics indicate. In the music video and at his live shows, he dedicates this song to all the soldiers who have been away from home for years while serving our country.

 

“Famous Friends” (with Chris Young) – Famous Friends

Brown hopped on his good friend, Chris Young’s single about small-town fame. The song highlights individuals that are extremely popular in their hometown—the high school quarterback, the sheriff, the preacher, etc.—but people on the outside would have never heard of. This fun, upbeat song hit number one in July of 2021, and is still used predominately on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” as the background song before they go to commercial.

 

“One Mississippi”- Different Man

This song is about a couple that is having trouble officially ending their relationship. It seems as though every time one of them goes out and gets a little drunk, they wind up back in each other’s arms by the end of the night.

 

“Like I Love Country Music” – Different Man

One of Brown’s most “country” songs to date serves as the second single off his latest album. In this upbeat jam, he compares his love for his girl to his love for country music, referencing legends in the genre such as Alan Jackson, Willie Nelson, George Jones, Johnny Cash, and Brooks & Dunn. The music video takes place in a honkytonk with Brown leading the group of line dancers. 

 

“Thank God” – Different Man, 2023

Brown has had many different artists join his songs in the past, but this feature is a little more special. His wife, Katelyn, makes her radio debut as the two thank a higher power for bringing them together.

 

“Bury Me In Georgia” – Different Man

A true ode to his home state, Brown’s single “Bury Me in Georgia,” climbed the country charts fast. While the song is about where he wants his final resting place to be, it reads like a love note to his home state. Much like his love for his fanbase, the entertainer also has a great appreciation for the state that raised him.

 

“I Can Feel It” – (Unreleased 4th album)

Kane Brown scores his eleventh number one single with this lead single off his upcoming fourth studio album. The song is the perfect blend of country overtones mixed with a fun, pop-tempo beat, making it a perfect hit for Brown.

**“One Thing Right” with Marshmello

This EDM collaboration with Marshmello never topped Country radio, but hit number one on the Billboard Country charts.

A mainstay in country music, Luke Bryan truly knows no bounds. His infectious personality and catchy songs have had country music fans celebrating his music for well over a decade. His most recent single, “Country On” marks his 30th number one song at country radio.

Bryan debuted the song back in July, which shows just how quickly the song catapulted up the charts. Written by David Frasier, Mark Nesler, Mitch Oglesby, and Styles Haury, the song is all about uniting Americans. It is as patriotic and anthemic as it can get, without coming across too cheesy or lacking substance. The song is the perfect song to remind fans across the world that we are all one, no matter our differences.

“Hey cowboy, keep slingin’ that rope // Eatin’ that dirt, wearing that gold // Break a leg rodeo, but just don’t break no bones // Country on // Hey barkeep, how ’bout another round? // Keep the neon lit in this crazy town // Just pour a little more // Country on”

In a world that often feels so divisive, it is nice that Bryan can continue to connect people through music. Music has always been the ultimate healer. “Country On” is one of those songs that can be medicine. Congrats to Bryan and his team on another incredible number one!

Singer-songwriter, Zimmerman is known for bringing emotion to the forefront of his music. His EP, Leave the Light On was praised by fans and industry alike. Written by the singer with Austin Shawn and Gavin Lucas, “Fall In Love” is a heartbreaking song all about not wanting to love again. You can feel the authentic emotion pouring out of him throughout the single. It is no surprise that it hit the number one spot on the charts.

“‘Cause love’s a smoke ring // Wrapped around your finger // One second it’s a blessing // And the next it’s already gone // A broken heart, I’m a walking testimony // My confession is a lesson // That I’m pouring out in this song // Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa // You don’t wanna fall in love // Oh-whoa-whoa, oh-whoa-whoa // You don’t wanna fall in love”

Congratulations to Zimmerman and his team on their accomplishment. This is only the beginning for the budding artist.

Jackson Dean and his fanbase are surely celebrating today! The rising artist just landed his first number one single at country radio with his debut song, “Don’t Come Lookin'”, the lead single off his major-label debut, Greenbroke.

A guitar-heavy track, Dean fully cements himself into his signature sound on this introduction tune. “Don’t Come Lookin'” has been a fan-favorite from the moment it was released. With his authentic voice and driving guitars, the track is a declaration of independence. It seems fans and country radio are in agreement.

“So long, four wheels turning // Got a tank full of gas, down the road, I’m burning // Can’t say I would and I can’t say I wouldn’t // If I don’t come back, don’t come lookin’ // Feels good, about time // Blue skies ahead and B-S behind // Got the wind in my hair // I got nowhere to go so I’m already there // And maybe Moab, maybe the Rockies”

There is nothing like a country music collaboration! Back in June, Thomas Rhett premiered his new song with duet partner and friend, Riley Green called “Half Of Me.” This week the song hit the number-one spot on the country radio charts.

While both Rhett and Green have many catchy songs in their individual catalogs, it is always fun when two artists team up on a track! “Half Of Me” fits the bill. Written by Rhett with Will Bundy, Josh Thompson, and Rhett Akins, while on tour, the song is all about wanting a drink more than anything else. Bringing Green as a collaborator on the song upped the ante of the already fun, and stage-ready track.

“Half of me wants a cold beer // Yeah, that’s the cold hard truth // And with a ‘frigerator stocked full of ’em // Tell me, what’s a boy to do? // I ain’t even tryna fight, it’s already been decided // The sky and the mountains are blue // Half of me wants a cold beer // And the other half does too”
