US music buyers are thus far sweet on Sugarland’s “Babe (featuring Taylor Swift).”<\/p>\n

The song, which bowed at 12AM ET, had reached #2 on the iTunes sales chart by press time at 10:45AM ET.<\/p>\n

Only Ariana Grande’s new “No Tears Left To Cry” is selling at a faster pace.<\/p>\n

Drake’s “Nice For What” (#3), Bebe Rexha’s “Meant To Be (featuring Florida Georgia Line)” (#4), and Carrie Underwood’s “Cry Pretty” (#5) complete the Top 5.<\/p>\n

In addition to launching on digital platforms, “Babe” was issued to country radio as Sugarland’s new official single. It serves as the follow-up to “Still The Same.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Babe” predictably moves into the upper reaches of the iTunes chart.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1047],"tags":[10859,10227,145],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nSugarland & Taylor Swift's "Babe" Reaches #2 On US iTunes Sales Chart<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"US music buyers are thus far sweet on Sugarland's "Babe (featuring Taylor Swift)."
