Following Carrie Underwood at #1 is Little Big Town with "Pain Killer." The single had 40 first week adds (and a total of 41).

Tim McGraw sits at #5 with "Top of The World," his lead single from his forthcoming third album with Big Machine Records.
At #6 this week is Luke Bryan's "Strip It Down." it's taken 3 weeks for the second single from Kill The Lights to hit 147 stations on board, just two more than Carrie Underwood's "Smoke Break" had in one week, to put her new record in perspective. Reba tied Luke with 15 adds this week for her new single "Until They Don't Love You." Jason Aldean's at #7 with ""Gonna Know We Were Here" while Blake Shelton, Cole Swindell and Tyler Farr's latest singles ("Gonna," "Let Me See Ya Girl" and "Better In Boots," respectively) all tie for #8 with 11 stations on.
