The combination of a discounted price point, peak radio exposure and a side stage performance at the 2017 CMT Music Awards have thrust Brett Young’s “In Case You Didn’t Know” into the Top 5 on the US iTunes sales chart.

The song is #4 as of press time at 9:15AM ET Thursday morning.

While the song has spent much of the past few weeks in or around the Top 10, this marks its first trip to the Top 5.

Fueled by a stripped (yet powerful) performance at those same CMT Awards, Keith Urban’s “The Fighter (featuring Carrie Underwood)” is also on the rise. The song, which was outside the Top 25 prior to the show, is currently #10.
