With this going top 30, all of his singles have gone top 30 on the country airplay chart. I expect this to be done by June if it doesn't move faster.

I think Broken Bow will ride this one out til it's at least Top 20, probably Top 10 (even though it's not really selling, it might now that it's Top 30 though).

Maybe once the Luke tour picks back up again (next week right?) it'll pick up more steam again. At least it made Top 30...ha

Not really a ringing endorsement considering his two lead singles were pretty big hits. "She Cracks My Tractor" huffed and puffed its way to a top 20 peak and sometimes I forget "Wild In Your Smile" was even out, lol (top 25 peak). I don't know, BBR really doesn't give up promoting singles til the bitter end so perhaps a top 20 peak is feasible, but it won't do much beyond that if it gets there. I still contend this wasn't a good choice for the second single. There's literally nothing memorable about this song in terms of lyrics, instrumentation and production and while he's far from an A-lister, this song did him zero favors.

Don't forget "Cowboys and Angels" and "Where It's At" WIA peaked at #1, did C&A? And that's depressing... Wish the current one would do better!!

I think he torpedoed the first album by releasing Tractor second. I remember so many better songs being on there (but a couple other clunkers too).
Likewise, I think this song will torpedo this album. It's just a heavily watered-down rewrite of Aldean's "Take a Little Ride". I can't think of much of anything good to say about this album, other than that Dustin sounds good on it.

"She Wants A Cowboy" sounds like it could be a great country classic, and is exactly the type of songs he should be singing, at least because it fits his voice perfectly. "Your Daddy's Boots" is pretty excellent as well. "Mind Reader" is a little different that the others, and then yeah, the rest of the album is mostly trucks, stars, rivers, and falling in love.

Really? Good thing these things are subjective. I'm the TOTAL opposite. There isn't a single song on this (or his debut album) that I do not like. Truthfully, the one and only song I will ever even skip over is in fact Cowboys and Angels. I think the album is outstanding and I still listen to it ALL the time.
Wish DL could get some momentum back! Like I keep saying, maybe with the Luke tour.

There are a select few of the truck tailgate, pretty girl bro songs that I can say that I REALLY like. A few are guilty pleasures, a few are just okay and the rest are channel changers. This is one that I REALLY like. For some reason I am hooked on the chorus and I can't put my finger on why.

Congrats Dustin on scoring your 4th Top 20. Looking ahead if Dustin and I think it's Broken Bow want the Top 15 there gonna need to hold on for one last month Michael Ray Luke and ZBB will go in before hand. Maybe Thomas Rhett makes the pass along with Chris? Eric? Yeah I think if Dustin can wait it out for 4 weeks he can get into the Top 15 and have his 3rd biggest hit. I think maybe Jake Owen could catch him in that time but I doubt it.

His songs bordering 30 weeks and he just entered The Top 20 he's at least like 10th or 11th to get in line for the Top 10. The songs so old that a Top 15 peak I think is all this songs gonna muster. But who knows you could be right?

At the risk of going out on a limb...Dustin's actually now in a position similar to where Tyler Farr was three months ago - and look how he turned out. (That said, it looks like Tyler was selling better at this stage than Dustin is now.) Likewise, I think this song will torpedo this album. It's just a heavily watered-down rewrite of Aldean's "Take a Little Ride". I can't think of much of anything good to say about this album, other than that Dustin sounds good on it. Ironically put, given that that's what kept "Cowboys and Angels" from the top spot.

At the risk of going out on a limb...Dustin's actually now in a position similar to where Tyler Farr was three months ago - and look how he turned out. (That said, it looks like Tyler was selling better at this stage than Dustin is now.) Pretty close chart wise as "Hell Of A Night" is 30 weeks old and sits at #19 on Billboard, while "A Guy Walks Into A Bar" sat at #18 on Billboard at the 30 week mark. Though Tyler's song had 4.6 million more in audience at that point. I was secretly hoping this song could find a way to peter out in the 20's or 30's but this is Broken Bow Records and they do stick with singles until the bitter end. Dustin is already up 130 spins and 1.1 million in audience over the past two days on MB. Looking at the leaders, it looks like 'Hell Of A Night" is trending upwards and I expect Broken Bow to gun for a top 10 finish, which would mean this song has to double its audience, though songs at this portion of the chart can find an extra gear with their updates. I doubt this can make it any further than top 10 though as this song is still 30 weeks old and the sales have been mediocre to average. Unfortunately, not a surprising chart run for this uninteresting song, IMO. Every time I hear it, I'm convinced this song started with the hook line and the writers needed to fill in the rest of the song with cliched, boring lines; such as "hot little playlist, of your favorite songs", "when I get you climbing up in the cab of this truck" and "just runnin' down crazy."

Regardless of where this peaks out - it's not doing much to progress Dustin's career.

The song is most certainly helping progress Duatin Lynch's career, no matter how vanilla it may be.

The song is most certainly helping progress Duatin Lynch's career, no matter how vanilla it may be. Actually with this song. I think Dustin is gonna lose some momentum while I can see this as a Top 10 (still iffy). Dustin had so much momentum with Where It's At. But given of how much he got pressed with big releases. Blake, Luke, Brett, ZBB (twice ) Carrie, FGL, Jason. The releases pushed this song back and I give credit to Broken Bow for really sticking with this one. But Dustin's obviously gonna lose some progress and momentum. But I hope Dustin can keep his B to C list status on radio.

If Dustin Lynch can become more steady with CD #3, I would move him to B list status.

He's still got quite a few songs on this album that would make great singles and I could see some of them doing well on radio/digital which is exactly what he needs right now. Should be interesting to see which song they choose next. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying this one while we got it because I really like it; "mild" or not

The song is most certainly helping progress Duatin Lynch's career, no matter how vanilla it may be. Eh, I don't really agree. Yes this song is looking good to make the top 10 but its sales have taken forever to get going and this song is the same old, same old that is just not moving the needle with listeners as Broken Bow would like. Radio loves Dustin (very single he's released has been well received) and his label has been one of the most successful over recent years, plus he's coming off a #1 single - that's why "Hell Of A Night" made the top 20. Technically speaking, this is "progressing" his career, simply because it's his latest single, but I'm sure there were other songs that would have made a bigger impact right now. I know he's not an A-Lister and yes, anything would have taken a while to get up the charts, but "Hell Of A Night" will be totally forgotten about a year from now IMO. This was just a safe single choice that panders to the bro audience that country radio has been targeting recently, nothing more. You hear so many artists say how they want that game changing song that becomes one of their signature songs, and even though I haven't given his album a full listen yet, I think I can safely say this was not it.

"Halo" would've been a better choice, I'm sure. But given how they originally wanted this for Aldean, I wasn't surprised this was DL's 2nd single, especially after it was placed 1st on the "Where It's At" album (which has sold moderately well with over 100k).

I would love to see "She Wants A Cowboy" get released next, but admittedly I'm not sure if that one would sell better because of it's traditional sound and originality, or if it would hurt in sales because of it. They could go for the home run and try releasing "Your Daddy's Boots". That could become a big wedding type of song, similar to how "I Don't Dance" did. "Mind Reader" is a good song, but I don't know if enough momentum is left at this point. It would probably have a similar fate as this one.

That's funny, from the very beginning I just always thought this was a song Jason Aldean probably didn't want to record. Guess I was right. This fella has a great voice and a great stage presence, but he's gonna be gone with the latest out-dated trends if he doesn't change what type of sound he makes. It's no coincidence that the brilliant "Cowboys and Angels" is his most well-known single.

Great summer song! So happy to see this get +567 spins this week. Finally moving up very nicely. Maybe this will pull a Tyler Farr afterall.
