This is a good choice and should do pretty well at radio, but I think "Airport Bar" is a better song (and probably the better single choice). Can't get mad at this one though, it was a clear standout from the album. Should be another #1 for Justin.

Obvious next single choice in terms of sales and streams. Long climb for sure, but this’ll top the charts summer 2020 without a doubt.

This is probably my favourite from Justin. Hope it does well for him.

This sounds like a smash and I’d expect it to peak right around spring break/summer. Could be one of his biggest hits

I’d go as far to say he’ll have back to back #1’s but I also thought Jake Owen and Scotty McCreery’s current singles would be top 20 at least by now too.

Wow, what fantastic production and melody. Too bad the vocals and lyrics don't quite live up to it. Don't get me wrong, I like the song I just wish the lyrics were a bit more developed and the vocals a little less harsh. Justin continues to impress with this album though, I think it may be his best to date.

Did they pull this single? I'm curious because I just did a radiotraks survey that included "Someday I Gotta Quit", "Airport Bar", "Jesus and Jack Daniels", "Good Times Don't", "That's My Boy", and "On the Rocks".

I've heard this on the radio several times now and I think I can say this is his best single to date. I absolutely love the melody of this and the lyrics are fun, especially the "It's alcohol abuse if you pour one down the sink" line. Love that. He turns in a great vocal on this one too and the production is spot-on as well. The whole song is basically a home run for me, and Justin Moore rarely hits those imo.

No. BMLG loves utilizing the RadioTraks survey tool as often as possible. "Why We Drink" is and will be the single for a while.

I would hope that his wonderful song will become a smash; 35+ weeks on the MB chart would appear to be a foregone conclusion (week #19 began yesterday), so this should have little trouble reaching the top 5 unless the callout numbers are gruesome.

Still really loving this one and I hope it becomes a huge hit. It is probably in my top 5 favorite Justin Moore songs.

Great music video. He's so cute and I'm a sucker for guys on the short side and I could really tell in that video how tiny he was for some reason whereas in other videos of his in the past I never noticed it as much, lol.

given the times, this song should be shooting up the charts. There are many reasons to drink these days

This superb and downright terrific followup to 'The Ones Who Didn't Make It Back Home' is going to be one of the year's very biggest singles; thanks to a mere 12 weeks on CT40 and wrapping up its 20th week on the Mediabase chart tonight, I wouldn't be surprised under any circumstances if it winds up an even bigger single than its predecessor, at least chart-wise, with at least another 3-4 months on the charts yet to come.
This gentleman is really good, and a very consistent hitmaker to boot as well as a great asset to the format.

Officially Top 20 on Mediabase with 550 spins gained this week for "Why We Drink" definitely look for this to be a future #1 on Mediabase at least even if I find it already overplayed and personally kind of over this song

I still really love this one! I do wish it had moved up quicker and done a little better on the sales & streaming end of things but oh well. I am glad it is still hanging in there!

Enters the Top 10 on Mediabase at #7 gaining 492 spins this week. Definitely think this is a future lock for #1 once LoCash/Chris Janson clear out.

Great to see Justin remain relevant with another decent hit. This ended up being the right choice for second single and it’s currently a bonafide jam when it comes on in my truck. Hopefully his momentum can carry over for a 3rd single, because I think “Airport Bar” has a ton of potential.

It took this one (like most of his singles) a long time to really get going, but it's looking like his one is connecting pretty well right now for him. With the way the top of the country charts have been going as of late, there's a decent chance this one might actually wind up being his highest-peaking single on the Hot 100 when it goes #1. So far his highest showing is with his breakthrough hit, "Small Town USA," at #44, and most country chart-toppers are at least hitting the top 40 right now, so it could be his first. Even if it comes up short, this one has definitely been a win for Justin Moore.

Just got one of those pick the next single things in my email. It’s Justin Moore but it’s all new material. None of the songs really drew me in. It’s a shame if he does go to new material that Jesus and Jack Daniels will never see the light of day.

Tomorrow will mark week #30 on CT40 and I'm still not tired of this rousing number which appears headed for #1; definitely a great crank-it-up tune and then some.
