Billboard Notes: 2023-03-23
Every once in a while something on the Billboard Hot 100 charts grab my attention. I'll try to post it when it happens.
This week there are three songs in a row with the same US state in its title:
38 -> 74 Tennessee Numbers by Morgan Wallen
91 -> 75 Tennessee Orange by Megan Moroney
54 -> 76 Tennessee Fan by Morgan Wallen
Tennessee must be the latest country trope.
"I’d tell her it's my fault and I still love her
But she quit taking calls from Tennessee numbers"
"In Georgia, they'd call it a sin
I'm wearin' Tennessee orange for him"
"Yeah, she was raised Roll Tide 'til the day she died
But ever since that night, she's been a Tennessee fan"
(Note: Wallen is from Tennessee and Moroney is from Georgia.)
