TOP COUNTRY SONGS FOR 2006

Why not? *asking with innocence*

Do you know, I have tuned into my local Clear Channel radio station maybe 5 times this year, and yet I know almost every single one of those songs. I can't wait for Nashville Star to start so I can hear some new sounds. Just a couple of weeks!

[xmaskat]

Interesting that is the same 5 or 6 artists that are on this top song list over and over and over... bleh

I am happy to say that I don't know about 50% of these songs, thankfully we have a legendary country channel around here

[Nana4]

Kat, I was thinking the same thing....I've heard many of them & have seen the videos~but there are some not listed that I like. Like Bonnie said I'm surprised at the order for some of them.

I can only imagine what CliffWalker's response was

[chris_bu_4]

seems like its gearing more an more towards the younger artists

[CactusT]

Carrie did well!

76. Swing..Trace......??? How in the world did this song rate? It certainly grats on my nerves!

I hated that song but radio loved it. The ratings are strictly by the number of spins the song received on radio - mostly Clear Channel stations I am sure. The numbers on the end show its total spins. Some of the songs released later in the year didn't have as much time to garner spins or I think a few would have been a bit higher, JMHO!

I can only imagine what CliffWalker's response was

The word "crap' WAS involved

Me too, TC, surprised by the order. Shocked that Alan Jackson and Gary Alan didnt get more spins than that.

Oh sure! Make me go look for the email LOL!

Even though I am a BIG fan of Rodney Atkins, especially his new single, I was surprised that 'Jesus Take the Wheel' wasn't the Number 1 song of 2006.

[standup]

I like Rodney Atkins' song. I actually agree with the listening public (radio programmers?) on the #1 song.
