Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Warner Bros. Records) - Warner Bros. recording artist Blake Shelton has reached the top of the charts, R&R Singles and MediaBase Singles, with his heart-wrenching "She Wouldn't Be Gone," written by Cory Batten and Jennifer Adan. This is Shelton's second consecutive No 1 - the follow up to "Home" - and his fifth career No 1 which includes "Austin," "The Baby," "Some Beach" and "Home". Collectively they held the No 1 spot for fifteen weeks.
