"It's Good to Be Us" hits the Top Ten!


Bucky Covington shares a smile on stage at the Crocodile Rock Cafe in Allentown; photo by the very talented Pizzi, who shares more of her beautiful images from the performance in her fantastic Photobucket gallery. Thanks again!

Congratulations to Bucky Covington and to songwriters Dave Berg and Tim James--"It's Good to Be Us" is #10 on the Mediabase weighted chart today, and #14 on the Top 500! Huge thanks to all who've phoned, voted and e-mailed those requests for Bucky's terrific tune. With a superstar group right behind us on the weighted chart, we'll have to keep up the pace and stay on those phones--but it sure is nice to be able to request Bucky Covington's second straight Mediabase Top Ten hit today!

(We've got some tech issues this morning--news post coming ASAP. Stay tuned, and thanks to Anon for the chart news!--Winnie)

Updated, 11:21 p.m. ET: Looks like our DSL line is permanently back in business--but hey, if we had to have a "stuck" day on the blog, I'm glad this was the news that stayed on top of the page! More coming up later tonight--Winnie

    although it didn't zoom up thru the charts as i had predicted when it was released i am no less thrilled that it made the top ten. longevity is a good thing in batteries and music....i get a charge out of both of them! couldn't resist that one.

    i'm not anonymous, i'm unknown.

  5. Anon 9:54, thanks so much--three spots in a week is a very nice jump indeed!

    And Unknown--yep, that was pretty irresistible. :) I am so with you, though! Thrilled is the word...

    How thrilled was I when I popped on here to get my firsthand "Bucky" news and saw the GREAT news that IG2BU has entered the Top Ten? Beyond thrilled!!!!! Over the top!!!!

  7. Kerri, you're a sweetheart and it's a pleasure to pass along some delicious good news! Your DJ friends are enjoying hearing you on the phone lines, I know. Bucky's fans are sweet but determined! I think our radio people up here in the frozen Great Lakes are getting a giggle out of me...

    (I think my DSL connection is fixed here! Nice to be in touch--felt strange being "disconnected" most of the day!)
