Words you’ll never hear an artist say: “Aw man, do I have to be No. 1 again?”
That’s right, George Strait’s “Here For A Good Time” is the CountryBreakout No. 1 song for a second consecutive chart. So apparently a “good time” lasts, at a minimum, two weeks. The track is Strait’s 89th (!) career single, from his 24th (!!) album of the same title. Strait is also the most-nominated country artist in CMA Awards history, with 81 career nominations, as well as the most-awarded with 22 wins. Suffice it to say, we think he’s got a pretty good shot at making it in this crazy country music business.
In addition to Here For A Good Time, Universal Music also recently issued George Strait – Icon, an 11 track collection highlighting his signature hits. Nine of his No. 1 singles are present, including “All My Ex’s Live In Texas,” “Ocean Front Property,” “Check Yes or No,” “Give It Away” and more.
