CHRIS YOUNG: It Had to Be “You”!

Big congratulations go out to Chris Young this week as his latest single, “You,” tops the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart to become his fifth consecutive number-one hit in a row! It’s an impressive accomplishment, placing Chris alongside Blake Shelton as the only two solo artists in country music to reach number-one with their five most recent singles! Needless to say, Chris is thrilled that the fans have embraced “You” in such a big way, and as the second single from his NEON album, Chris tells us he thought “You” made a great follow-up to his previous hit, “Tomorrow.” (AUDIO INFO BELOW)   

  • On hitting number-one with “You,” Chris shared, “I am ecstatic. I’ve been excited for each number-one and to have five in a row feels amazing!”
  • Chris has been enjoying a lot of good news lately, earning a pair of ACM Award nominations last week! Chris is up for Single Record of the Year for “Tomorrow” and made his first appearance in the ACM category for Male Vocalist of the Year! Way to go, Chris! Be sure to catch the 47th Annual ACM Awards when the big show airs April 1st at 8pm, ET/delayed PT, on CBS!
  • Look for Chris on tour now with Miranda Lambert!

CHRIS YOUNG: It Had to Be “You”!  Chris Young talks about his fifth consecutive number-one hit, “You.” (:34)
“As simple as this song is, it’s kind of got this really cool groove to it, and I was so excited that we went with this one because it is different, I think, than some of the other songs that I’ve had out. It’s definitely different when you listen to it back-to-back with ‘Tomorrow,’ where ‘Tomorrow’ is this big power-ballad love song, ‘You’ is almost kind of this fun, kind of like an R&B slash country feel on a song. And I got to use my falsetto on the song, got to play around a little bit vocally, and I just love everything about it. I’m excited people are gettin’ into it.”
