Rodney Atkins - "Chaing Girls"

Even though "It's America" went #1 on the charts and the follow-up single "Fifteen Minutes" scored a Top 15 hit for Rodney, he seemed to be losing his charming homespun likeability.  That has changed as this single returns him to exactly what made him a star, relatability.

Love and Theft - "Dancing In Circles"

Love and Theft scored a Top 10 hit, the only new artist of 2009 to do so (so far),  with first single “Runaway” off of their debut album World Wide Open and now the trio has moved on to their follow-up single in “Dancing In Circles.”  Will the song be a hit?

Danny Gokey - "It's Only"

Danny Gokey scored with American Idol audiences with his tender yet gravelly voice.  Now signed to a country deal with 19/RCA Nashville, Danny is set to release this song, produced by Mark Bright, to country radio.  Will Danny Gokey become the latest Idol country star?

 

Brad Paisley - "American Saturday Night"


Brad Paisley has been on a creative high recently while also scoring 11 consecutive number one hits on the charts.  "Welcome To The Future" was one of 2009's best songs, how does the follow-up single, the current album's title track, hold up to it? Will it be #12?

The Band Perry - "Hip To My Heart"

It's no secret that modern country music has taken a turn towards pop-leaning sounds of past decades.  This new Republic Nashville trio has that pop-leaning sound but they do it with an organic, fresh flair that is highlighted with this debut single.

Jody Booth - "Gold Digger"

Well here's a surprise. A genuine country song from a new artist that recalls the best of Strait, Jackson and Paisley.  The song also has a don't-take-myself-too-serious feel that helps make it a very nice song to listen to.  But will it get a shot at national success?

Josh Thompson - "Beer On The Table"

Sony Music Nashville's latest artist signed to their Columbia Nashville imprint is singer/songwriter Josh Thompson.  Will his single help the label break a Columbia Nashville act into the Top 40 after a little bit of a dry spell?  Find out what we think here.

Reba - "Consider Me Gone"

With "Strange" landing near the Top 10, Reba McEntire certainly has reintroduced herself to fans and radio alike.  What does this song, her follow-up, hold for her?  Will it become an even bigger hit for the superstar or will it fall flat? Should the song even get any attention?

Sara Evans - "Feels Just Like A Love Song"

Sara Evans certainly has lived a gossip-filled past couple of years.  As her hits seemingly brushed the Top 10 or failed to even go Top 20, she had a public divorce and, then, a public marriage.  This song chronicles the latter but is it enough to return her to the top of the charts?

Jamey Johnson - "High Cost Of Living"

Jamey Johnson became a critical darling when he released his self-produced album "That Lonesome Song." While radio embraced "In Color," It is going to be a tough road to complete acceptance at radio as songs like this one are so different than what radio likes.
