Little Big Town’s “Better Man” Reaches #1 At Country Radio

Little Big Town’s “Better Man” moves to a better position on this week’s Mediabase country radio singles chart.

The best possible position, in fact.

Up one spot, “Better Man” takes #1 on this week’s listing.

“Better Man,” which was written by Taylor Swift, follows “Pontoon” and “Day Drinking” in becoming Little Big Town’s third country radio chart-topper. It seizes the throne from Dustin Lynch’s “Seein’ Red,” which falls to #6 after a one week on top.

Not simply the leader in chart points, “Better Man” also ranks as the Mediabase country panel’s most-played and most-heard song for the February 12-18 tracking week.

It received ~8,381 tracking week spins (+550) and ~57.269 million tracking week audience impressions.

Chris Young’s “Sober Saturday Night (featuring Vince Gill)” rises one spot to #2 this week. Brad Paisley’s “Today” enjoys a two-place lift to #3.

Michael Ray’s “Think A Little Less” (#4, +2) and Jon Pardi’s “Dirt On My Boots” (#5, +3) complete the Top 5. Both are making their first Top 5 appearances.
