Tim McGraw’s duet with Taylor Swift, “Highway Don’t Care”, sits at #1 with 86,000 fans taking home the track. Right behind Tim at #2 is Lady Antebellum with thier fourth album’s lead single “Downtown.” 72,000 took that track home. McGraw sits at #3 this week with his Top 5 Airplay hit “One Of Those Nights.” it, too, sold 72,000 copies to bring total sales to 413k, thus ensuring a second-consecutive Gold single at some point in the next month or so. Last week’s #1 single on this chart, Blake Shelton’s “Sure Be Cool If You Did” lands at #4 while Hunter Hayes Grammy and now ACM Nominated single “Wanted” rounds out the Top 5 with 65,000 fans taking home the still rising pop chart hit which spent a couple weeks at #1 on the Country Airplay chart last fall.
Florida Georgia Line “Cruise” Double Platinum, Hunter Hayes “Somebody’s Heartbreak” Gold. “Pirate Flag” Debuts.
The Top 10 of this week’s chart is rounded out with many songs that were previous #1 or Top 5 chart hits, including #6 single “Better Dig Two,” from The Band Perry. The single is currently #1 on the Billboard Airplay radio chart. The single is soon to be yet another Platinum hit for the family trio while superstar Kenny Chesney debuts on the Roughstock Top 30 Digital Singles chart with “Pirate Flag,” the lead single from his Life On A Rock record. Gary Allan’s “Every Storm (Runs Out Of Rain)” sits at #8 this week, about a week away from Platinum while Florida Georgia Line’s “Cruise” is now eligible for certification for Double Platinum, based on two million singles now sold at Digital Retail. Carrie Underwood rounds out the Top 10 with her dark tale “Two Black Cadillacs.” The superstar (who was shut out of an ACM Entertainer of the Year bid this morning) is about 140,000 singles away from another Gold-selling single. Hunter Hayes’ “Somebody’s Heartbreak moved over the 500,000 sales mark this week bringing the young artist his third straight Gold-selling (or better) single after “Storm Warning” and “Wanted.”
Sarah Darling’s “The Bachelor” Appearance Helps Home To Me To Debut in Top 30 Digital Singles Chart.
For the first time in weeks, “Nashville” cast member Hayden Panetierre scores a Top 30 debut with a new single as “Consider Me” moves 18k in its first week. She also scored 12k in sales with “I’m A Girl” to debut at #34. Sarah Darling makes her debut on our rundown with her Dann Huff-produced “Home To Me.” The song is the lead single from her upcoming third album for Black River Entertainment. Dustin Lynch’s “Cowboys And Angels” jumped from 6,000 in sales last week to 16,000 this week to give the single just over 936k total, making it eventually a likely Platinum single. Meanwhile Little Big Town, who went Gold with “Tornado” the single last week, are now sitting just over 70k singles sold away (5-8 weeks) from Double Platinum status for “Pontoon.” It’d be the first such award of their still growing career. Rounding out our rundown are ACM Nominee Kacey Musgraves “Merry Go Round,” a single 90k away from Gold, and Zac Brown Band’s “Goodbye In Her Eyes,” a single which is only 50k away from Gold.
