Weekly Chart Report (6/17/11)

SPIN ZONE
At least No. 1 isn’t so far away, Justin Moore. After a two week run at the top by Blake Shelton’s “Honey Bee,” Moore’s “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away” takes over the CountryBreakout Chart’s No. 1 spot to give the young Valory Music Co. artist his second No. 1 single. Positions 3-5 are all Capitol Records, with Dierks Bentley’s “Am I The Only One” leading the pack, followed by Luke Bryan’s “Country Girl (Shake It For Me)” and Lady Antebellum’s “Just A Kiss.”
It’s also a week of big debuts. Fresh from his performance at the CMT Music Awards, Toby Keith’s “Made In America” makes a huge leap to debut at No. 35 and gains 785 spins in the process. In doing so, he slightly overshadows other really big debuts from Alan Jackson (“Long Way To Go,” No. 63), Dolly Parton (“Together You And I,” No. 70) and Ronnie Dunn (“Cost Of Livin’,” No. 73)
Thompson Square’s followup to No. 1 single “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not” is “I Got You” and it’s looking very healthy at No. 18 after a gain of 242 spins. At the lower end of the chart making its debut at No. 75 is LoCash Cowboys’ “You Got Me.” Someone really needs to do a mashup of these two. And poised for big debuts in the coming weeks are Kellie Pickler’s “Tough” and J.T. Hodges’ “Hunt You Down.”
