Young sells "Tomorrow"
Thursday, February 24, 2011 – Chris Young becomes the only artist with 2 Top 10 singles this week on Billboard's Digital Country Songs chart, as his new single, Tomorrow, jumped onto the chart at number 8.
With first-week sales of more than 30,000 downloads according to Nielsen SoundScan, the single - at radio now - is a week out from its official airplay impact date.
The single follows Voices on the Digital Country Songs Top 10 with 29,000 downloads last week. Earlier this month, the hit became Young's third consecutive number one single on the country airplay charts, joining Gettin' You Home and The Man I Want to Be, all from Young's sophomore CD, "The Man I Want to Be."
Tomorrow, written by Young, Frank Myers and Anthony Smith, is the first single from Young's upcoming third album, "Neon," set to release this summer.

He sounds as perfectly comfortable with the jazzy "I'll Be Home for Christmas," where its supper club vibe takes a little of the edge off one seriously sad song, as he does with the Phil Spector rock nugget "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)."
Young is also helped out by a few special guests. ...
Chris Young has enjoyed steady success from his previous four releases, and there's no reason to suggest that "I'm Comin' Over" won't do the same. But that doesn't mean that Young is doing anything all that different from what's au courant.
