Lucky year number 7 of the countdown is here! Honestly I think this year was very strong compared to recent for music but I think it lost some steam by the end of the year but a really strong first half for sure. As always this will track songs from November 1st 2022 to November 1st 2023. This gives songs in Nov and Dec a fair chance in the countdown.
Gift Giveaway Game: Each round I will give a hint to the next two songs, or song once we are in the Top 10. You will get 1 point for each song you get right but only if you are first!

Kelly Clarkson - Rock Hudson
Kelly's ex husband was definitely the inspiration for this album. The line of Piece by Piece I found out my hero is me.... get him Kelly. That man tried to take every damn thing from her so that ultimate lyric snub for the song that was so popular for him being the father to her kids that she never had to now it is her line for herself... genius. Kelly is just an outstanding human and deserved a top 20 entry for this track.
Countdown History: Kelly lands her 10th entry in 7 years. A big milestone crossed... can she get to 11?

Maren Morris - The Tree
I am so proud to be a stan of Maren more than any other artist I have been a fan from their early days. Maren legit has stood up for so many rights and her leaving country music was just so powerful to me and I LOVED the way she did it in this song. After seeing Jason Aldean's god awful song get to number 1 and seeing him and his wife celebrating... god nothing was worse to see. Maren has actively spoke up against the gross agenda that him and his wife spread and I could not be more proud of the woman Maren is. I cannot wait to see what comes of her genre change and I love her for this.
Countdown History: Maren Scores entry number 9! Can she snag her 3rd top 10 entry this year?
