Kenny Chesney scores 33rd number 1 with ‘Take Her Home’

Kenny Chesney is continuing to break records as he celebrates ‘Take Her Home' hitting number one, increasing his tally to 33 career number ones.

‘Take Her Home' is from Chesney's latest album ‘Born' and it was written by Zach Abend, Hunter Phelps and Michael Hardy, better known by his stage name HARDY. Watch the video for the song below:

The achievement comes after Chesney broke the single night attendance records at stadium after stadium on his ‘Sun Goes Down 2024' Tour.
 
“It’s an amazing feeling, hearing the people singing it back to us,” Chesney says. “It reminds you how these songs really do hold pieces of actual lives inside them, how deeply people feel these records; they’re more than hits. But when you get that call, and they tell you it’s No. 1, you realize how many people are seeing themselves on the radio. To me, that’s why I started doing this.”
 
Having sold out Lincoln Financial Field in March, adding tickets and selling those out, too, along with Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium and three straight nights at Foxborough, Mass.’s Gillette Stadium, Chesney has spent 2024 connecting with his fans on a whole other level.
 
“The energy and passion I’m feeling this summer is a whole new level,” allows the man the Wall Street Journal crowned “The King of the Road” a decade ago. “That heart and soul is so strong, it takes these songs to places we didn’t always realize they went. Last week when I was sick, they really brought it and sang with me in a way that changed everything.
 
“And it’s in songs like ‘Take Her Home,’ the ones that slow things down, where that desire to be in the moment really stands out. So, to stand onstage at Soldier Field and tell those fans their lives are No. 1, that this song is like them hitting the top of the charts? I can’t wait.”
