'FEARLESS' FIVE: Lady Antebellum claims Greatest Gainer honors at its home format, as "American Honey" jumps 10-8 on Country Songs. Two notches lower, Taylor Swift achieves a first in the chart's 66-year history.
Swift lifts 12-10 with the title cut from "Fearless," which becomes the album's fifth top 10 on Country Songs. Having banked five top 10s from her self-titled debut album, Swift is the first solo female to collect five top 10s on the chart from each of her first two albums.
Only two other acts have previously managed the feat. Brooks & Dunn notched five top 10s each from "Brand New Man" and "Hard Workin' Man" (1991-94), and Dixie Chicks hatched five top 10s from their major label debut "Wide Open Spaces" and six from "Fly" (1998-2002).
Here is a rundown of Swift's 10 career-opening Country Songs top 10s:
"Taylor Swift," 2007-08
No. 6, "Tim McGraw"
No. 2, "Teardrops on My Guitar"
No. 1 (six weeks), "Our Song"
No. 3, "Picture to Burn"
