Jason Aldean Has #1 Song of 2014
Jason Aldean had an amazing year in 2014, with sold-out shows and a top selling album. He ended the year with the #1 Song of 2014. “When She Says Baby” was the most-played song on country radio for the year. Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton called Jason with the news:
Congratulations on having the #1 Song of 2014: I appreciate it! That’s awesome, man. Any time you have a song and it does well, that’s great, and if it goes #1, that’s even better, but to have the #1 for the year, that’s pretty special, so I appreciate it. Thank you!
Actually this is the second time for you, because “She’s Country” was the #1 song of 2009. Yeah I remember, and again, what a cool thing. For this being the second time in my career, that’s a good feeling!
Where were you when you found out you had the #1 song of the year? I think I was on a hunting trip in Louisiana, and I got an email from my management telling me I had the #1 song of the year. It’s exciting stuff.
You got more good news, “Old Boots, New Dirt” was certified platinum! Yeah that’s good to see, good to see people still buy albums. We spend a lot of time on those albums, so it’s great that people still buy complete albums. As a kid growing up, I always liked buying albums, so I’d hate to see them go away.
You had a pretty good year! Yeah, I definitely don’t have any complaints.
How will you ring in the new year? I’m planning on having some people over my house, taking it easy and just hang out. But I’m also one of those guys who if someone calls at 5 in the afternoon, I may go out with them, so you never know.
Congrats on getting engaged, so will you end the year as an engaged man, or any other special plans? We’ll spend the end of the year engaged for sure, we’ve got to get through the holidays first, and then we can focus on the day. We’ve been working on it, but as of right now we don’t have a date, it’s going to go down next year for sure, but when exactly, we don’t know yet.
Congrats again! My pleasure, thanks again, and happy holidays to everybody out there!
