Reba’s “Consider Me Gone” Spends Third Week at #1

January 5 2010

Reba Mcentire's Consider Me Gone celebrates its third consecutive week atop both the Billboard Country Songs Chart and the USA Today/Country Aircheck Chart (powered by Mediabase) this week, making Consider Me Gone the biggest chart hit of the superstar’s illustrious career.

Consider Me Gone also becomes the longest-running #1 hit for a female Country artist since Taylor Swift’s Our Song logged a multi-week stint at #1 in 2007.

With #1 songs now spanning four decades (80s, 90s, 00s, 10s), Reba’s run of #1 hits now extends to 26 years [her first #1 came in January 1983 with Can’t Even Get The Blues]. The second single from Reba’s #1-selling album KEEP ON LOVING YOU, is also the longest-running single of the superstar’s career.

“I can’t think of a better way to start the new year and a new decade! I would like to thank everyone at Country Radio from the bottom of my heart”, says Reba of her latest milestone.

Reba heads out on tour with George Strait beginning January 22nd at the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore, MD.
