Weekly Chart Report (7/27/12)

SPIN ZONE
Is July really almost over? Man, when did that happen? Even though the days of summer are numbered, there’s no shortage of big summer singles on the CountryBreakout Chart. Keith Urban’s “For You” is out ahead of the bunch, moving up to the No. 1 position after 16 weeks on the chart. Little Big Town’s “Pontoon” is sailing with strong winds, as it gains 300 spins to move up to No. 3. RCA Nashville’s Love and Theft is also looking at the top of the chart with “Angel Eyes,” which lands at No. 5.

Jason Aldean recently released “Take A Little Ride,” the first single from his upcoming album, and it’s cruising in the express lane. After only two weeks on the chart, “…Ride” is sitting at No. 32, following an impressive gain of 708 spins. Eric Church’s “Creepin’” is pretty much jumpin’, as it gains 316 spins to move to No. 34. Close behind is Kip Moore, whose “Beer Money” is steadily climbing at No. 42.

Toby Keith leads the list of new chart debuts, with “I Like Girls That Drink Beer” hitting No. 59 in its first week of reporting. Luke Bryan’s “Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye” manages a similar feat, locking down the No. 67 position in its first week. Also debuting are Parmalee’s “Musta Had a Good Time” at No. 79 and Kelly Parkes’ “All Cried Out” at No. 80.
