For the first time in several weeks, a country song repeats at #1 on Mediabase’s country airplay chart.<\/p>\n
Dierks Bentley’s “Drunk on a Plane,” that song, narrowly holds off Tim McGraw’s “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s (featuring Faith Hill)” to earn a second week atop the Mediabase chart.<\/p>\n
While the McGraw song actually earned eight more spins during the August 17-23 tracking period, “Drunk on a Plane” scored enough chart points to repeat at #1.<\/p>\n
For the seven days ending August 23, it received 7,882 spins and 56.02 million audience impressions. Last week, it claimed #1 with 7,622 spins and 54.96 million audience impressions.<\/p>\n
The recipient of 7,890 spins between August 17 and 23, McGraw’s #2 “Meanwhile” earned 55.44 million audience impressions during that period.<\/p>\n
The balance of the top 5 includes Lady Antebellum’s “Bartender” (#3), Kenny Chesney’s “American Kids” (#4) and Dustin Lynch’s “Where it’s At” (#5).<\/p>\n
