I’m pretty sure you heard it a lot on the radio in 2023, and maybe on your AirPods too…cause who’s really listening to the radio. Apple Music announced that “Last Night” by Morgan Wallen was its most streamed song of the year.
Which is worldwide and we’re talking about across all genres. “Flowers” by Miley Cyrus is number two on the year end list, and then there’s “Kill Bill” by SZA. Whoever hell that is.
Four more of Morgan’s songs also made the Top 50: “You Proof” is 20th…“Thinkin’ Bout Me”, 26th…“One Thing at a Time”, 42nd…and “Wasted on You” is 50th.
Might as well mention Morgan had three other songs that made the Top 100. Those were “Chasin’ You”, “Thought You Should Know”, and “Everything I Love”.
“Fast Car” by Luke Combs also made the Top 50 at #34. “Something in the Orange” by Zach Bryan is 36th. Morgan finishing ahead of them shouldn’t be a huge shock. “Last Night” topped Billboard’s Hot 100 for 16 weeks this year.
Speaking of Billboard, they also announced the top country tours of 2023, and Morgan tops that list too. His shows grossed $260 million. Luke Combs landed at number two on the list at $133 million. Then King George Strait at number three with $107 million…Shania Twain at number four with $85 million . . . and then Eric Church with $50 million.
