Square Wheels Posted June 25, 2015 Share #3 Posted June 25, 2015 I saw that this morning and was shocked to learn this was his first #1.I know lot's of people don't like him, but he's been around forever - that has to say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur ★ Posted June 25, 2015 Share #4 Posted June 25, 2015 I am good with an occasional JT tune but I couldn't listen to a whole album. Saw him try to do a blues tune once and he can't pull that off for sure. I was almost embarrassed for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parr8hed Posted June 25, 2015 Share #5 Posted June 25, 2015 love me some JT. Awesome that he finally got a number 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parr8hed Posted June 25, 2015 Share #6 Posted June 25, 2015 For what it's worth, Buffett had a #1 with "Margaritaville". He was wildly popular, selling out outdoor venues across the US for many years every summer until he had his second #1 with "5 O'clock Somewhere". The album that this was on was "License to Chill". This was his first #1 album after all those years. He is the only person in history to have a #1 song, #1 album and a bestseller on NY times fiction and non-fiction lists.
