Carrie Underwood Scores 12th No.1 Single

Carrie Underwood’s “Temporary Home” has become the 12th No.1 single of her career and the second chart-topper from her Platinum-certified album, Play On. The song made it to the top of the charts after just 18 weeks, faster than any other single this year.

One of seven tracks that Underwood co-wrote for Play On – and her fifth co-written single to top the charts – “Temporary Home” may portray poignant life moments, but the message is one that Carrie has always seen as uplifting, as she says, “It’s hopeful, and each person in each story, in each different place in their life, knows that things are going to be okay.”

On the CMT Top Twenty Countdown episode that premiered this past Friday, the touching music video for “Temporary Home” topped the countdown for the fifth consecutive week.
