According to Nielsen SoundScan, who tracks sales for Billboard magazine, these are the top-selling digital songs for country music. Personally, I think some of these really challenge the definition of “country music” (Miley Cyrus “The Climb”?, Taylor Swift “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”?) but this is their list, not mine.
1. Florida Georgia Line “Cruise” - 6.33 million
2. Lady Antebellum “Need You Now” - 6.27 million
3. Taylor Swift “Love Story” - 5.66 million
4. The Band Perry “If I Die Young” - 4.74 million
5. Taylor Swift “You Belong With Me” - 4.41 million
6. Zac Brown Band “Chicken Fried” - 4.06 million
7. Jason Aldean “Dirt Road Anthem” - 3.94 million
8. Carrie Underwood “Before He Cheats” - 3.90 million
9. Taylor Swift “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” - 3.77 million
10. Miley Cyrus “The Climb” - 3.71 million
