Chris Janson’s “Buy Me a Boat,” which is sailing toward the Top 5 of the country radio airplay chart, recently crossed an impressive sales checkpoint.<\/p>\n

When the August 7-13 tracking week concluded, its US sales total exceeded 500,000.<\/p>\n

Going into the week, the song boasted a cume of what Nielsen Music reports as approximately 474,000. Final data for the August 7-13 week is not yet available, but there is enough insight to confirm it moved at least 26,000 additional copies.<\/p>\n

A more realistic weekly sales projection is 35-40,000.<\/p>\n

Entry into the gold threshold comes as Janson sits at a #48 peak on the Billboard Hot 100. It is comfortably within the Top 10 on both the Mediabase and Billboard country radio charts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","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":[4101,4100],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nChris Janson's "Buy Me a Boat" Reaches 500K US Sales<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Chris Janson's "Buy Me a Boat," which is sailing toward the Top 5 of the country radio airplay chart, recently crossed an impressive sales checkpoint.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2015\/08\/15\/chris-jansons-buy-me-a-boat-reaches-500k-us-sales\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Chris Janson's "Buy Me a Boat" Reaches 500K US Sales\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Chris Janson's "Buy Me a Boat," which is sailing toward the Top 5 of the country radio airplay chart, recently crossed an impressive sales checkpoint.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2015\/08\/15\/chris-jansons-buy-me-a-boat-reaches-500k-us-sales\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2015-08-16T00:48:29+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Chris-Janson-e1430746557369.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1425\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"783\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2015\/08\/15\/chris-jansons-buy-me-a-boat-reaches-500k-us-sales\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2015\/08\/15\/chris-jansons-buy-me-a-boat-reaches-500k-us-sales\/\",\"name\":\"Chris Janson's \\\"Buy Me a Boat\\\" Reaches 500K US Sales\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2015-08-16T00:48:29+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2015-08-16T00:48:29+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"Chris Janson's \\\"Buy Me a Boat,\\\" which is sailing toward the Top 5 of the country radio airplay chart, recently crossed an impressive sales checkpoint.\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2015\/08\/15\/chris-jansons-buy-me-a-boat-reaches-500k-us-sales\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News & Charts, TV News & Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
