Which Country Chart Does This List Use?
This list follows Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, so the No. 1 song listed here represents the song currently leading at country radio.
Billboard ranks Country Airplay by total audience impressions from monitored country radio airplay. The chart is different from Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, which measures a broader combination of music consumption.
That distinction is important because there can be more than one song described as the “No. 1 country song” depending on which chart is being referenced.
