Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Arista Records) - Reigning CMA Male Vocalist of the Year and recently crowned two-time ACM Top Male Vocalist
Brad Paisley today logs a fourth consecutive week at No 1 with the playful 'I'm Still a Guy,' from his million-selling album, 5th Gear. The disc has now launched four chart-topping hits in a row - including 'Ticks,' 'Online,' and 'Letter to Me' - with 'Letter to Me' and 'I'm Still a Guy' tallying a collective seven weeks at No 1 - more than twice as many weeks at No 1 as any other country artist this year.
Now with seven consecutive, non-seasonal No 1 hits to his credit, Paisley continues a chart-topping streak unmatched by any country artist in more than five years - and the flow of great music continues, as today also marks the arrival at country radio of Paisley's newest single, 'Waitin' on a Woman.'
Considered an overlooked gem from his previous collection - the ACM and CMA Album of the Year winner, Time Well Wasted - 'Waitin' on a Woman' was an across-the-board favorite among fans, critics, and Paisley himself, but the scheduled release of his 5th Gear album had initially precluded the song's release as a single.
Reviewers offered special praise for the sweetly sentimental song, with the Chicago Sun-Times calling it 'a philosophical, slice-of-life tale that ranks among Paisley 's best story-songs.' The Village Voice hailed 'Waitin' on a Woman' as a 'superb domestic-intimacy song,' while Music Row declared it 'an inspired piece of songwriting that Paisley delivers with style.'
Known for his award-winning music videos, including the most recent ACM and CMA Video of the Year winner, 'Online,' Paisley will bring 'Waitin' on a Woman' to life with the help of special guest star, Andy Griffith.
Paisley says, 'One of the greatest moments in my career was getting to shoot this video with Andy Griffith and getting to know him. I'll cherish this video and opportunity to become friends with this wonderful and influential man for the rest of my life. 'Waitin' on a Woman' is one of the most important songs I've recorded; it's a masterpiece written by Wynn Varble and Don Sampson, and the video demanded excellence and art to match the composition. Andy was my No 1 choice for the video - he is the perfect person that embodies wisdom, years, and personality of the character in the video.' The video will debut in late June.
Along with its inclusion on Time Well Wasted, fans can also be watching for 'Waitin' on a Woman' with its addition on new pressings of 5th Gear.
