Scotty has lots of Idol fans voting for him right now. He wins almost every fan voted thing just like Adam Lambert.
There's really no reason for country radio to pass or not play 'Blown Away' less than what one would expect of a Carrie Underwood single simply because of the possibility that autotuning might have been used, which would be devastating for 97% of the current female core artists at top 40 radio if autotune din't exist.
The only issue with 'Blown Away' remains the subject matter..
CountryMusicfan15----In regards to the 'Before He Cheats' vs. 'Wasted' chart episodes; WGAR/Cleveland & WBCT/Grand Rapids, two longtime country powerhouses, both started playing 'Before He Cheats' before the label announced 'Wasted' as the third single, and their airplay was enough for it to hit the BB charts. I hope that I interpreted your question accurately, but if you need further clarification, feel free to ask again, or rephrase your question.
Thanks!
Thanks for voting guys! We are currently No. 9 on the poll where you have to listen to all the clips of songs. We started at 35 & moved up to 9.
On the CMT Cody poll, we got Blown Away back in the lead by 1100 votes. They are still voting some, so I'm going to continue to vote & hopefully, they will give up. I think Cody plays these on Monday, isn't that correct? When I first started monitoring this vote, we were at 5,300 votes and now, we're at over 30,000.
Great job Carrie Fans!! I hope we can stay ahead of those Scotty fans tonight.![]()


I am still going to vote more on the CMT poll as well. The poll where you have to listen to the clips will happen every week, they will send an email out to the email you listed and typically they have two polls they will ask you to vote on. BA will be on the radio music poll. Thanks for voting. I have a friend that works for WKDF in Nashville and she says the radio promo directors pay attention to this poll.
The Scotty fans are really gearing up on this poll: CMT Radio Live with Cody Alan » Cody Plays The Top 5
Carrie gained 8 votes in the same time that Scotty earned 27. Keep on voting!![]()
BA (+53 spins, +0.302 million AIs) moves up 2 spots to #44.
"I feel like it's not about the accolades or the sales numbers or the, you know, awards or any of that. It's about helping people with their lives and making a difference that way."

Cary nice update. Tx! do you think we will finally start seeing big adds updates this week since today isthe official adds date?
Just seems odd how few stations added BA so far.
Don't worry, the BA era is going to be something to see.
Platinum sales are a given
We have a 1,400 vote lead on Scotty. That's good!




I'm still waiting to hear it on the radio. BA is on radio lockdown (at least when I am listening). But GG is still getting a lot of spins. I love Keith Urban and LBTown's new singles and they are getting spins when the sun is up and I am listening so at least this time I have a few songs I like waiting for BA to come on.
I am shocked that after 28 hours in a car, I only heard BA 3 times. I really expected to hear it at least a few more times. Granted we stopped to get gas, etc., but I doubt we missed the airplay of BA each time we stopped to do so.
Looking forward to airplay pickup this week!![]()
