Just a week after being released, Carrie Underwood’s “Cowboy Casanova” is making its mark on the charts. With a debut at #26 on the Billboard Country Songs chart, “Casanova” represents the highest debut for a female artist this year on the Country chart.
Among all country acts, Carrie’s debut single off Play On represents a tie for the second-highest debut, an honor she shares with Brad Paisley, and the two artists trail Kenny Chesney, whose “Out Last Night” debuted at #25 earlier this year (so close!).
“Cowboy Casanova” represents the fifth best debut on the Country Songs chart for a female artist since 1990. Interestingly, the title of the highest debut on the chart for a female belongs to Carrie, when “So Small” debuted at #20 before the release of Carnival Ride.
No. 20, “So Small,” Carrie Underwood (2007)
No. 21, “All Jacked Up,” Gretchen Wilson (2005)
No. 24, “I’m Gonna Getcha Good!,” Shania Twain (2002)
No. 25, “Love Story,” Taylor Swift (2008)
No. 26, “Cowboy Casanova,” Carrie Underwood (2009)
Considering “Casanova” came out rather abruptly, a debut at #26 seems pretty good to us!
