Country star Morgan Wallen is here, again, continuously making us drop our jaws as he claims twelve spots out of the top 40 country songs for June 2023.

The past few months have been exciting for the Tennessee native. His most recent album, One Thing at a Time, skyrocketed to No. 1 and has been a streaming blockbuster since its release. Week after week, it has fended off competitions in various genres to remain music’s most popular album.

Following Wallen closely is none other than Luke Combs, who flexes his songwriting skills on his new album Gettin’ Old. Other country giants ruling the top 40 country songs for June 2023 are Zach Bryan, Bailey Zimmerman, and Tyler Hubbard. Check them out below!

1. Last Night by Morgan Wallen

“Last Night” remains true to the brokenhearted, whiskey-filled path that Morgan Wallen has made his own in recent years. In this tune, he recalls a difficult conversation between him and his partner on what would become their last night together. And like most of his songs, it was wittily written, revolving over a classic piece of country wordplay.

2. Fast Car by Luke Combs

Luke Combs’ chilling cover of this iconic masterpiece is one of the ear-grabbing tracks from his fourth studio album, Gettin’ Old. “Fast Car” has long been a staple of his live performances and is even said to have been a huge part of his life growing up.
