Thing is her streak does continue on the Billboard Airplay chart. I honestly think some stans take having a #1 hit to far. It is all great to say you have so many #1 hits but I think respect by the peers in the industry and legends mean more to artists.
Definitely! Eddy Arnold has the most weeks at #1 for any artist but I think all country fans would say people like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, etc. are more respected than he was.
I am a fan of Carrie and some of these posts make me sad Not sure why both women can't be successful and celebrated for what each other brings to the country market
