As a song, this may be a surprise for some to be on this list. But the reason is simple to me. This #1 song broke out an unknown new country duo that would go on to totally dominate the format in the biggest decade we've ever had. Brooks And Dunn became the absolute baseline for country music for the next 20 plus years. They are the largest selling duo in music history and are simply one of country's biggest acts ever. Even after Garth, Clint, Randy, Alabama and some other country giants drifted off the charts, Brooks And Dunn continued on successfully long after. And guess what, they are still performing live on stage at a very high level today. This song is absolutely infectious in the fact you must listen to it, and you must sing along with it. It is equally applicable to men or women, as it brags about how much better life is with you now in it. This has great tempo, zings along and makes you happy. Not only is this a great country love song of sorts, it also is splashed heavily with a spiritual undertoned theme that fans simply love. In short, it's one the most beloved country songs of the last 30 plus years, and it's about the best debut single there has ever been. This 3 minutes of genius, delivered to us one of the biggest, most successful acts in the history of our format.
