SPIN ZONE
Everything can change in a day or two when it comes to radio charts. This week there’s a shift at the top, thanks to a new CountryBreakout No. 1 song with Thompson Square’s “I Got You.” Moving up with them are Taylor Swift’s “Sparks Fly” at No. 2, Brantley Gilbert’s “Country Must Be Country Wide” at No. 3, Miranda Lambert’s “Baggage Claim” at No. 4, and Lady Antebellum’s “We Owned The Night” at No. 5. New to the Top 10 is The Band Perry’s “All Your Life,” which scoots in at No. 9.
Debuting singles are a largely male crowd this go ‘round. Billy Currington’s “Like My Dog” leads the pack (get it?) at No. 71, followed by Lee Brice’s “A Woman Like You” at No. 72 and Neal McCoy’s “A-OK” at No. 73. A few spins behind are JD Malone & The Experts’ “Silver From (And You Still Want More)” at No. 77, newcomer Kip Moore’s “Somethin’ ‘Bout A Truck” at No. 78 and Corey Smith’s “Maybe Next Year” at No. 80.
