You go to a bar, you want music. If there's no band, you head to the jukebox. And a great way to judge how popular a song is, is if people actually have to spend money to hear it. That's where TouchTone jukeboxes come in. Every year, they tally up the number of plays every song on their jukeboxes get. This year, four of the top five most-played songs on TouchTone jukeboxes were country songs. In fact, nine of the top ten songs were from the country genre. Your Top 5 most-played songs on TouchTone jukeboxes this year are:
- No. 5: Post Malone feat. Morgan Wallen, "I Had Some Help"
- No. 4: Toby Keith, "I Love This Bar"
- No. 3: Teddy Swims, "Lose Control"
- No. 2: Chris Stapleton, "Tennessee Whiskey"
- No. 1: Shaboozey, "A Bar Song (Tipsy)"
Side notes: three of the songs had to do with bars or drinking; three were from this year ("I Love This Bar" came out in 2003, "Tennessee Whiskey" came out in 2015). And two of the songs ("I Had Some Help" and "A Bar Song (Tipsy)") were big pop hits as well as country.
