Keith Urban will close out 2010 with “Put You In A Song” at the top of the CountryBreakout Chart for a second week, followed by his Capitol Nashville cohort Luke Bryan’s “Someone Else Calling You Baby” at No. 2. Most of the Top 10 looks strong heading into the break, particularly Kenny Chesney’s “Somewhere With You” as it moves up to No. 6.
Thompson Square’s “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not” is seeing a spike in activity as it moves 19-17 with 149 spin gain. It’s trailed by Darius Rucker’s “This” at No. 18 and Brad Paisley’s quickly rising “This Is Country Music” at No. 19. Entering the chart this week are Trace Adkins’ “Brown Chicken, Brown Cow” at No. 73, Jadi Norris’ “Home Is Where The Heart Is” at No. 79, and D. J. Miller’s “A Snowman In Birmingham” at No. 80.
