AceShowbiz - Tim McGraw continues to dominate the charts with his latest single, "Standing Room Only". The song has claimed the coveted #1 spot at country radio, making a significant jump from last week's position. It knocked Dustin Lynch's "Stars Like Confetti" off the throne, solidifying McGraw's status as one of the genre's most influential artists.
Additionally, "Standing Room Only" has reached the impressive #2 spot on the Billboard country airplay chart. This achievement marks McGraw's 60th top 10 hit on the Country Airplay chart, an accomplishment that ties him with the legendary Kenny Chesney. Since the initiation of Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems in 1990, McGraw and Chesney hold the second most top 10 hits on the chart.
Furthermore, "Standing Room Only" lifted off the album of the same name has made its mark on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, securing the #14 position.
As Tim McGraw continues to captivate audiences with his unmatched vocal prowess and heartfelt lyrics, "Standing Room Only" is yet another testament to McGraw's enduring musical legacy, and it serves as a reminder of why he remains one of the most respected and beloved figures in the country music industry.
In an interview on Apple Music, he talked about inspirations behind his new music, "We all make mistakes and we're going to make mistakes and we're going to do bad stuff, and all you can do is try to get up the next day and be the best you can be that day, and know you're going to screw up again later down the road, and you got to figure out how to put that behind you.
"And I'm lucky because music is cathartic and for me, it's my therapy. So, to be able to go in the studio and have these great songs and sort of work out your emotional baggage through these songs is a blessing."
He added, "I think the moment that I feel like I'm not improving and learning and getting better every time I go in the studio, getting better with how sonically I want things to sound, how I want to sing, the songs that I want to record, if I get to the point where I think that I'm not improving, that's going to be the time to stop doing it because I never want to be the guy that's just doing the same thing over and over and over again."
