List of Billboard number-one country songs of 2022

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Jordan Davis's "Buy Dirt" featuring Luke Bryan took the number one slot on both Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay for multiple weeks.

Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay are charts that rank the top-performing country music songs in the United States, published by Billboard magazine. Hot Country Songs ranks songs based on digital downloads, streaming, and airplay not only from country stations but from stations of all formats, a methodology introduced in 2012.[1] Country Airplay, which began being published in 2012, is based solely on country radio airplay, a methodology that had previously been used from 1990 to 2012 for Hot Country Songs.[1]

Both charts began the year with songs that at number one began their runs at the top in 2021; "Fancy Like" by Walker Hayes held the top spot on the Hot Country Songs chart, and "Thinking 'Bout You" by Dustin Lynch and MacKenzie Porter on the Country Airplay chart.[2][3] When Michael Ray's "Whiskey and Rain" reached number one on the Country Airplay chart in January, it tied a record for the slowest climb to the top in that chart's history at 65 weeks, a record previously set by Travis Denning's "After a Few" in June 2020.[4]
