Country Music Charts, Week Ending 12/8/07

Monday, December 10th, 2007

tobychristmas.jpgThere just hasn’t been any real movement in any country charts recently. There haven’t been any new albums, really, in the last couple of weeks to hit the shelves, so the album chart has been pretty steady. The Eagles did regain the top spot, knocking out Garth Brooks’ “Ultimate Hits” album. There is a seasonal entry into the top ten this week, too, as Christmas nears. Toby Keith’s “A Classic Christmas” made its debut in the top ten albums this week.

On the singles side of things, Carrie Underwood is hanging on to number one with “So Small”. There wasn’t much movement up or down the singles charts this week. However, Sugarland did break into the top ten this week with their latest single “Stay”.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 12/1/07

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

urbanalbum.jpgWell, there really wasn’t much to report this week in regards to the country music singles charts or the country music album charts. There was barely any movement at all on the singles charts with Carrie Underwood sticking at number one. George Strait is gaining, however, and it’s most likely only a matter of time before he charts another number one to add to his collection with his current hit, “How ‘Bout Them Cowgirls”.

The albums charts were also pretty steady this week. The only real movement is the catapulting of Keith Urban’s Greatest Hits CD to #4 on the charts in its first week of release. It just didn’t have enough steam to overtake Garth Brooks, The Eagles, or his touring partner Carrie Underwood, though.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 11/24/07

Monday, November 26th, 2007

carriealbum.jpgSo Dierks Bentley only got one week in the top spot before being dethroned this week. It really is no surprise that Carrie Underwood hit number one with her latest single “So Small” what with all of the awards she’s been winning recently. She’s definitely on a roll and it looks like her country music career is showing no signs of slowing.

On the album side of things, Garth Brooks managed to outsell The Eagles this week to take his “Ultimate Hits” collection to the top spot. Garth’s lovely wife Trisha Yearwood also managed to debut in the top ten with her new album “Heaven, Heartache, and the Power of Love”. Perhaps most surprising on the album charts is that both Sugarland and Taylor Swift have each been on the charts for over an entire year now (54 weeks and 56 weeks respectively) and are still hanging on to top ten spots. That’s quite an accomplishment!

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 11/17/07

Monday, November 19th, 2007

dierksalbum.jpgWell, Dierks Bentley has been climbing the charts steadily throughout the past few weeks, and he’s finally reached the top. His single, “Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)” managed to knock Kenny Chesney out of the top spot for country music singles this week. Now George Strait is making that climb, and with his string of #1 hits, it shouldn’t be long before he takes the top spot with his current single “How ‘Bout Them Cowgirls”.

On the albums chart, The Eagles went platinum and managed to hold off country music King Garth Brooks’ “Ultimate Hits” collection. Surprisingly, Taylor Swift’s album also made a big jump back up the charts. Hot off the heels of her Horizon Award win at the CMAs and her current catchy single “Our Song”, her self-titled debut album has been out for more than a year, but is hanging strong in the album charts.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 11/10/07

Monday, November 12th, 2007

eaglesalbum.jpgThere wasn’t a whole lot of movement on either the country music singles charts or the country music album charts this week. However, the huge surprise was The Eagles not only took the top spot on the album charts, they absolutely annihilated the competition in all genres. Selling somewhere in the range of 750,000 copies in their first week, they more than doubled troubled pop tart Britney Spears’ new album. Not only is that an amazing feat in and of itself, the new album from The Eagles was only available to purchase at Walmarts across the country.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 11/3/07

Monday, November 5th, 2007

carriealbum.jpgWell, there wasn’t much movement on the country music singles charts this week with Kenny Chesney holding strong at number one with Dierks Bentley close behind in second place. Really, there wasn’t much movement up or down besides the debuts of the Grand Ole Opry’s newest member Josh Turner with “Firecracker” and Taylor Swift entering the top ten with “Our Song”.

The country music album charts, on the other hand, ended up quite interesting. Really, it was no surprise that Carrie Underwood’s “Carnival Ride” blew away the competition with over 575,000 units sold clinching the top spot with ease. Where it gets interesting is the second and third positions. The unconventional duo of Robert Plant and Alison Krauss took the second spot with their new collaboration “Raising Sand” and Gary Allan debuted his brand new album “Livin’ Hard” in third place. That means Rascal Flatts fell all the way to the fourth position this week. Not only did Carrie Underwood, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, and Gary Allan top the country music album charts, the three also topped the Billboard Hot 200 which compiles sales across all genres of music. This was certainly unexpected, but definitely deserved, so congratulations to all of those great artists on their achievements.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 10/27/07

Monday, October 29th, 2007

dierks.jpgThis week on the country music charts didn’t see much movement with the number one spots for both the singles charts and the albums charts staying the same. Kenny Chesney’s latest hit, “Don’t Blink” was able to hold off a hard charging Dierks Bentley with “Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)” who jumped a few places to land at number two. Will he be able to keep Dierks at bay for another week?

Also, the unshakable Rascal Flatts album “Still Feels Good” enjoyed another week in the spotlight. However, their reign could very well be over shortly. Carrie Underwood’s newest CD “Carnival Ride” hit the shelves last Tuesday and is projected to top both the country and pop charts next week. Fueled by the single “So Small” (currently at #4 on the country music singles chart), Carrie’s CD will most likely knock out Rascal Flatts on next week’s charts.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 10/20/07

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

chesneyalbum.jpgThe country music top ten singles chart once again got a big shake up while the albums stayed pretty steady. Toby Keith’s single “Love Me if You Can” was knocked out of the top spot after only one week by Kenny Chesney’s “Don’t Blink” which climbed back up after a brief fall. Brad Paisley’s “Online”, which was number one just two weeks ago, fell sharply down the list this week.

Rascal Flatts still has a strangle hold on the album charts, again beating out all comers to retain the number one spot with “Still Feels Good”. LeAnn Rimes was able to debut with her brand new album “Family” in the number two spot and Sara Evans’ “Greatest Hits” CD came in at a respectable fourth place finish, just behind Reba McEntire’s “Duets” album.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 10/13/07

Monday, October 15th, 2007

tobyalbum.jpgAs expected, Rascal Flatts stayed strong at the top of the album charts this week with their latest release “Still Feels Good”. Reba McEntire’s “Duets” album held on to second place with some brand new releases right behind, including Faith Hill with a Greatest Hits CD, and Cross Canadian Ragweed’s latest record. Of course, we can’t forget our good friends Brooks & Dunn with their new CD “Cowboy Town” which you can win a copy of in Country Music Herald and the official Brooks and Dunn website’s contest!

The country music singles chart had quite the shake up this week.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 10/6/07

Monday, October 8th, 2007

stillfeelsgood.jpgAs predicted, Rascal Flatts dominated the album charts with their new release “Still Feels Good”. However, they weren’t able to make it a double strike as Brad Paisley hit the top of the singles charts with “Online”. It was still great news for Rascal Flatts whose album sold over 500,000 units, which is more than any country album since their last record “Me and My Gang” debuted with over 700,000 sold. Not only did the trio earn the top spot on the country album charts, they were the number one sellers of all albums and hit the top of the Billboard 200 in their first release week. In fact, Rascal Flatts currently has 2 albums in the top 10 of the country music album charts with “Me and My Gang” holding strong in 5th place. Their current single “Take Me There” off the new album fell to second this week after an extended stay at the top of the charts.

Country Music Charts, Week Ending 9/29/07

Monday, October 1st, 2007

rascalflatts2.jpgThis past week was all about Rascal Flatts. Topping the singles chart this week, they are expected to top the albums chart with their latest release, “Still Feels Good” next week after a whirlwind promotional tour on TV and radio across the country. However, Brad Paisley is hot on their heels on the singles charts with his hilarious hit “Online”, will they be able to hang on to the number one spot? The trio will also have to outsell Reba McEntire’s “Duets” album. That’s a feat easier said then done considering Reba is currently #1 on the Hot 200 Albums chart for all genres. I guess we’ll find out next week, but for now you can check out this past weeks’ charts after the jump.
