Google Trends just did a big country music round-up on what people have been searching for.<\/p>\n
Last week, they said there were twice as many searches for the phrase “country music” than the phrase “pop music.”<\/p>\n
Here are a few more stats they dug up…<\/p>\n
1. Lyrics for “Mamaw’s House” by Thomas Rhett and Morgan Wallen were a top-trending search recently.<\/p>\n
2. They also looked at the top “Is [BLANK] a country singer?” searches. Taylor Swift is #1 on that list, followed by Zach Bryan and Jelly Roll.<\/p>\n
3. Google DOES still think Taylor is a country star, apparently. They say the most searched country music artists of the year so far are Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, Dolly Parton, Zach Bryan, and Luke Combs.<\/p>\n
And finally, here are the top five questions about country music last week…<\/p>\n
1. “How to watch the ‘People’s Choice Country Awards’?” They aired live on NBC and Peacock last Thursday.<\/p>\n
2. “Is Toby Keith sick?” He was diagnosed with stomach cancer in 2021. But he made a triumphant return to the stage at Thursday’s show.<\/p>\n
3. “Is Country Music Awards on tonight?” No, the CMAs are on November 8th. That was probably people searching for the “People’s Choice Country Awards”.<\/p>\n
4. “How old is Toby Keith?” He turned 62 in July.<\/p>\n
5. “How old is Wynonna Judd?” She’s 59. People were googling her because she got the first ever “Country Champion Award” at Thursday’s ceremony for all the charity work she’s done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Google Trends just did a big country music round-up on what people have been searching for.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":24647,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[3337],"tags":[1787,8161,8162,605],"class_list":["post-25991","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-country-music","tag-google","tag-google-trends","tag-taylor-swift"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-15 17:22:40","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/chok.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2023\/10\/things-people-are-googling-about-country-music\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25991","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25991"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25991\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24647"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25991"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25991"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25991"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
