1. Wasted On You by Morgan Wallen

This slow-burning track is somewhat not slowing down when it comes to ranking the charts. It has posted strong consumption numbers since it was released off Wallen’s blockbuster album Dangerous: The Double Album. Currently, it has ranked No. 1 both on Billboard’s Country Airplay and Hot Country Songs chart.

2. The Kind of Love We Make by Luke Combs

Luke Combs made a powerful entry this month with his latest single that’s filled with country-soul swagger. The sultry ballad also represents Combs’ much more mature side. It appears in his recently released album Growin’ Up.

3. You Proof by Morgan Wallen

The moment Wallen released this acoustic guitar-driven song about drinking away the memory of a previous lover, it quickly became a fan favorite. In fact, it debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.

4. Take My Name by Parmalee

This romantic ballad has been winning the hearts of many country fans. It was immediately a favorite among fans after Parmalee gave a snippet through TikTok. This song – about finding the person you want to spend the rest of your life with – has since ranked No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay. 

5. Like I Love Country Music by Kane Brown

When Brown noted that his next musical chapter would be a “full country album,” he definitely wasn’t joking. Nowhere is truer than in his latest single, “Like I Love Country Music” – which leans into ’90s country.

6. AA by Walker Hayes

“AA” serves as the follow-up single to Hayes’ chart-busting smash “Fancy Like.” And just like its predecessor, it delivered an infectious production and blended it with lyrics about day-to-day life in the south.

7. Something In The Orange by Zach Bryan

This lovestruck single that’s filled with the genre’s signature soul turned out to be Bryan’s first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at No. 37. The song finds the country star lamenting about a doomed relationship.

8. Trouble With A Heartbreak by Jason Aldean

Aldean claimed the top of the country charts once again, thanks to this relatable track, which finds him navigating the pain of a broken heart after a relationship’s ending.

9. ‘Til You Can’t by Cody Johnson

10. Damn Strait by Scotty McCreery

When McCreery paid tribute to one of his country idols, he did not only get George Strait’s approval – but of the entire country music world. Fans immediately embraced this heartbreaker that’s filled with references to the King of Country Music.

11. Fall In Love by Bailey Zimmerman

While its title sounds like a romantic ballad, you might want to prepare yourself to get your heart broken by the song’s immense impact as it sings about losing that special person you never thought you’d lose.

12. Rock And A Hard Place by Bailey Zimmerman

Here’s another track from Zimmerman! This time, he recounts a relationship that’s barely staying afloat. The rising country star released the song following the fervent requests of his rapidly-growing fans.

13. She Had Me At Heads Carolina by Cole Swindell

Swindell definitely knows how to take action as he gave new life to one of the most enduring country standards of the last three decades. This song actually features an interpolation of Jo Dee Messina’s “Heads Carolina, Tails California.” 

14. She Likes It by Russell Dickerson and Jake Scott

This pop-country ballad is the perfect blend of Dickerson and Scott’s sounds. The two talented artists harmonized and equally showcased both of their star-studded abilities.

15. Flower Shops by ERNEST featuring Morgan Wallen

Inspired by George Jones’ sad country songs, “Flower Shops” tells the story of a love that’s lost and never coming back. It’s a classic country storyline ERNEST and Wallen is very familiar with it.
