Morgan Wallen Scores 8th Career #1 At Country Radio With “Thought You Should Know”

Make it eight for Morgan Wallen.

He just scored his 8th career #1 at country radio with “Thought You Should Know,” which is featured on the tracklist for his forthcoming massive 36-song album, One Thing At A Time.

It took the top spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart this week, which is one of two charts labels use to officially track their songs performance (along with Mediabase):

A tribute to his mama Lesli, “Thought You Should Know” was actually released on Mother’s Day last year, where Morgan admits that he’s been making some bad decisions and chasing things he shouldn’t, and wants to reassure her that “all those prayers… finally made their way through.”

It was actually co-write with Miranda Lambert and Nicolle Galyon, and the song itself features a pretty simple production and some fantastic lyrics in the form of a letter or message to his mom, after Morgan realizes how long it’s been since he’s been home.

It’s easily one of the most “country” songs he’s ever released, and one of my personal favorites too, so it’s cool to see a song like this taking the top spot at country radio.

The music video also includes some adorable home videos of Morgan with his mom when he was a little boy, showing some sweet moments from his childhood growing up in east Tennessee, and Lesli actually makes an appearance in it, as well.

And while, there’s certainly a lot of songs to pick from in terms of what will be his next single at country radio, and “One Thing at a Time” is already charting on Billboard, “Last Night” has already been putting up some crazy streaming numbers, so we’ll have to wait and see what they choose next.

“Thought You Should Know”

One Thing At A Time is due out everywhere on March 3rd, and features collaborations with Eric Church, HARDY, and ERNEST, in addition to his sister, Ashlyne, who sings background vocals on “Outlook.”
