Rascal Flatts’ “Life Is A Highway” Joins The Spotify Billions Club
Rascal Flatts has just joined a very exclusive group. Their 2006 single “Life Is A Highway” just crossed the billion streams plateau on Spotify, making the song one of only 17 country songs in the Spotify Billions Club. The song was originally a rock and pop hit for Canadian musician Tom Cochrane in 1992; Flatts covered it for the soundtrack for the Pixar film “Cars,” where it became not only a country but a pop hit as well. Over 1,300 songs have reached the one billion mark on Spotify, but oddly, only 17 of these are country. With “Life Is A Highway” the latest to cross that threshold, the song now becomes the oldest country song to do so.
Will The Florida Georgia Line Reunion Result In A Tour?
As the dust settles after last month’s epic Florida Georgia Line reunion concert at CMA Fest, the question remains: what next? There have been indications the appearance wasn’t just a one-off, with the duo signing a new management deal, but what does that mean for fans? Possibly very good things. In a discussion with radio station “US99,” Tyler Hubbard was asked what the future holds for the legendary act. “I would say we got some things in the works for next year. We’re excited, BK (Brian Kelley) and I have been hanging out, having a good time, and you know, kind of itching to get back on-stage.” And about that: “So we’ll probably put some shows together next year, and that’s about as much as we’ve planned at this point. But we’re both excited, it’s gonna be a fun year next year.” FGL fans, stay tuned.
