Kane Brown earns his 11th No.1 Advertising signCountry Airplay chart as “I Can Feel It” climbs from No. 4 on the chart dated March 16. During the March 1-7 tracking week, the song grew 23% in TK million impressions, according to Luminate.
Brown co-wrote “Feel” with Gabe Foust and Jaxson Free, and Dann Huff produced it.
The track interpolates Phil Collins' 1981 classic “In the Air Tonight” via his trademark drum solo and Brown's reprise of the chorus. Collins, who solely wrote “Air,” is credited as a writer on “Feel.”
“I just heard the news here in London after I played C2C that 'I Can Feel It' went to No. 1 – that means so much to me,” says Brown Advertising sign. “And it's amazing to have a No. 1 with a huge legend like Phil Collins.”
Specifically, Collins records his first No. 1 at a Advertising sign chart as a songwriter after “Air” topped Rock Digital Song sales for a week in August 2020. (It peaked at No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 in August 1981.) Before “Feel”, it was last time to top any chart as a writer of a new song when he ruled Adult Contemporary for one frame in November 2002 with his own single “Can't Stop Loving You” (which Keith Urban covered on his 2006 album Love, Pain & The Whole Crazy Thingas did Taylor Swift for a BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge performance in 2019).
With the first single from Brown's upcoming LP, he earns his sixth straight Country Airplay No. 1, the longest active streak among any artist. (The overall streak record is held by Luke Combs, who hit a record 14 straight No. 1s to open his career from 2017-22.)
Prior to “Feel,” Brown topped Country Airplay for one week each with “Bury Me in Georgia” (September 2023). “Thank God,” with his wife, Katelyn Brown (February 2023). “Like I Love Country Music” (August 2022) “One Mississippi” (March 2022) and “Famous Friends”, with Chris Young (July 2021). Brown headlined “What Ifs,” featuring Lauren Alaina, for one week in October 2017.
Brown kicks off his In the Air Tonight tour March 28 at the John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville, Va., with Tyler Hubbard and Parmalee.
