Eric Church Reclaims Top Spot On The MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart

Eric Church moves into the top spot on the MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart with his current single “Heart On Fire,” of which he is the sole writer.

Because he is the only writer on “Heart On Fire,” all of the points earned from the song’s airplay, digital download track sales, and streams go entirely to Church on the Songwriter Chart.

Shane McAnally falls to No. 2 on the MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart. He has five charting songs, including Old Dominion’s “No Hard Feelings,” Kenny Chesney’s “Everyone She Knows,” Walker Hayes’ “AA,” Sam Hunt’s “23,” and Carly Pearce & Ashley McBryde’s “Never Wanted To Be That Girl.”

Ashley Gorley (No. 3), Ben Johnson (No. 4) and Michael Hardy (No. 5) round out the top five this week.

The weekly MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart uses algorithms based upon song activity according to airplay, digital download track sales and streams. This unique and exclusive addition to the MusicRow portfolio is the only songwriter chart of its kind.
