"I really can’t believe I have 20 #1s at Country radio,” said BENTLEY. "I still remember the bar I played in TEXAS when I found out that 'What Was I Thinking' was going to be my first #1. It’s a great feeling that only gets better with each song that goes to the top. I am so appreciative of Country radio for all the support they have given me from the beginning … It’s been a great ride.”
