Blake Shelton‘s “Sangria” and Carrie Underwood‘s “Little Toy Guns” split the country singles charts at number one for this week.

The advanced Billboard Country Airplay chart is out and “Sangria” has hit the #1 spot on that chart. This is Blake Shelton’s 20th career chart topper. It also keeps Blake’s record setting streak of consecutive number one singles with “Sangria” bringing the total to 15 #1s in a row. The single is the third from his current album Bringing Back The Sunshine.

The advanced Mediabase/Country Aircheck chart has also been released and Carrie Underwood jumped past Blake on that chart to score the #1 spot this week with “Little Toy Guns.” The single is the second of two previously unreleased songs on her Greatest Hits: Decade #1 two-CD set. Counting collaborations with other artists (like Miranda Lambert on “Somethin’ Bad”) this is Carrie’s 21st career #1.

We will have to wait and see if the two songs swap places on the country singles charts next week.

Congratulations to Blake Shelton for his #1 single “Sangria” and Carrie Underwood for her #1 “Little Toy Guns.”
