Rewind: 2012 MusicRow Chart No.1s

December 28, 2012/by Eric T. Parker

Little Big Town

For 10 years, The MusicRow Chart has anointed weekly No. 1 songs in the country radio marketplace and in 2012, thirty-three different songs climbed to the top position. Congratulations to all the artists, songwriters and labels for these 2012 radio achievements.

Luke Bryan and Dierks Bentley

Noteworthy accomplishments were made by both Dierks Bentley and Luke Bryan who tied for bringing three titles to the No. 1 position in 2012, more than any other artist this year. The longest reigning No. 1 song this year was Little Big Town’s “Pontoon,” which remained atop the MusicRow chart for 5 consecutive weeks– the entire month of August.

The 11th Annual MusicRow Chart Awards, based on radio airplay reported by members of MusicRow‘s CountryBreakout radio panel, will be held during CRS in February.
