Blake Shelton’s “Came Here To Forget” predictably makes a big splash on this week’s Mediabase country radio singles chart.
The song, which did not arrive until the third day of the March 6-12 tracking week, starts at #26 on this week’s official Mediabase listing.
While handicapped by its mid-week emergence, “Came Here To Forget” benefited from promotional, “on the hour” airplay on its first day of release. It ultimately received ~2,172 Mediabase-monitored spins and ~18.218 million Mediabase monitored audience impressions during the official tracking period.
With “Came Here To Forget,” Shelton is aiming for a 17th straight (and 22nd overall) #1 hit at country radio.
