iTUNES GOES NASHVILLE (BY WAY
OF VEGAS)

Miranda Lambert perches atop both the Album and Singles Top 10s at iTunes post-ACMS, and an array of her fellow Nashville stars have also gotten a sizable boost from the show. Six Nashville hits sit in the Top 10 tracks, led by Miranda's new "Tin Man," Sam Hunt's "Body Like a Back Road" (MCA Nashville) at #3, The Keith Urban-Carrie Underwood breakout "The Fighter" at #4, Lady Antebellum's "You Look Good" (Capitol Nashville) at #7, the Tim McGraw-Faith Hill duet "Speak to a Girl" (Arista Nashville) at #9 and Thomas Rhett-Maren Morris tandem "Craving You" (Valory/BMLG) at #10.

On the album side, Lambert's The Weight of These Wings (Vanner/RCA Nashville) is #1 and Urban's Ripcord (Capitol Nashville) is #6. The ACM-winning "Forever Country" sits atop the Music Videos chart. Sale pricing keeps Maren Morris' Hero, Chris Stapleton's Traveller and other titles in the Top 25.
