My Top 10 Hits – Summer Of 2023

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back over 45 years. Today it’s a special chart of my Top 10 hits of this past Summer. Here’s this Summer’s chart:

# 1 Summer Of:
2022 – “Love Is Everything We Need” – Unspoken
2021 – “Yes He Can” – Cain
2020 – “No Impossible With You” – I AM THEY
2019 – “Raise A Hallelujah” – Bethel Music
2018 – “Do It Again” – Elevation Worship
2017 – “Wonder” – Hillsong UNITED

WHAT A SUMMER ! – 15 weekly hit music charts and 23 positive and encouraging hits (the same as last Summer) have created this cumulative hit music chart of my Top 10 hits of the Summer Of 2023 based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay. This past Summer season is defined as U.S. Memorial Day Weekend (last Sunday of May) to U.S. Labor Day Weekend (first Sunday of September). This chart is an End-Of-Summer tradition for me.

SOLO AT THE TOP – For the first Summer of this current era – a solo artist led my chart. As you can see above – bands / groups led my chart for 6 Summers in a row. This year Terrian scored my # 1 smash of the Summer with her anthemic “Big God”. It’s the only song to spend all 15 weeks of the Summer on my chart. Solo artists dominated my chart this Summer with 7 out of my Top 10 hits.

DAN BREMNES – Only 1 artist managed to repeat this Summer, and that’s the man from British Columbia Canada. His “Fingerprints” were all over my chart this Summer, and last Summer “Hold You Tight” finished as my # 3 song of the Summer. What do you have for next Summer Dan ?

2023 – Get ready for the final 16 weeks of 2023, and after it’s all over – I’ll #CountUp my Top 23 Of 2023.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 3 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, and #MusicMonday.

Be blessed my friends !  May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

My Top 10 Hits – Week 342

Every Monday (this week on Tuesday) I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back over 45 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday September 03RD 2023 – the 342ND week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW LW WKS SONG TITLE ARTIST / SITE
1 1 7 Praise You Anywhere
[2ND week @ # 1]
Brandon Lake
2 2 8 The King Is Alive Jordan Feliz
3 4 4 Praise The Lord Micah Tyler
4 7 3 Hallelujah Feeling Caleb & John
5 3 15 Big God Terrian
6 5 9 To Not Worship You MercyMe
7 6 12 Every Hour David Leonard Ft. Josh Baldwin

# 1 This Week In:
2022 – “Hold You Tight” – Dan Bremnes
2021 – “Into The Wild” – Josh Baldwin
2020 – “Miracles” – Colton Dixon
2019 – “Nobody (But Jesus)” – Casting Crowns Ft. Matthew West
2018 – “Who You Say I Am” – Hillsong Worship
2017 – “Broken Things” – Matthew West

DAN BREMNES – His 4TH hit – “Fingerprints” – falls off of my chart this week after a successful 22-week run. All 4 of his hits have enjoyed long runs on my chart – “Wherever I Go” (15 weeks in 2018), “Up Again” (10 weeks in 2019), “Hold You Tight” (18 weeks in 2022), and now “Fingerprints” (22 weeks in 2023). Next weekend I’ll be revealing my Top 10 hits of the #SummerOf2023, and – spoiler alert – “Fingerprints” will be in my Top 3.

COCHREN & CO. – Michael Cochren is back with his 7TH hit since 2019. It’s his personal story of salvation that began on a Tuesday night in a “Parking Lot”. A Christian song on the radio led him to God. That sounds like my personal story of salvation. 17 years ago I met God on North Canal Drive – via a Christian song on the radio.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 4 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, #MusicMonday, and my special Top 10 of the #SummerOf2023 on Tuesday.

Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday August 27TH 2023 – the 341ST week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

BRANDON LAKE – He scores his first chart-topper here on #CountUp with his 6TH hit overall and 2ND as a solo artist. “Praise You Anywhere” reaches # 1 after about 2½ months of radio airplay. It was actually a slow climb outside of my Top 10 for the first 6 weeks, and now in its 6TH week on my chart – it’s at the pinnacle. As Brandon stated on social media – “Praises can be a weapon, a force … a source of HOPE !”

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 4 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, a special #LaborDay post on Monday, and #MusicMonday on Tuesday.
