    From: Shania Twain's 'Greatest Hits' (2004)

    Currington got a huge piece of exposure early on in his career with "Party for Two." It's a song Shania Twain recorded especially for her Greatest Hits album, releasing one version with Currington to country radio, and another mix with pop singer Mark McGrath to pop radio.

    "Love Done Gone"

    From: 'Enjoy Yourself' (2010)

    The third single from Enjoy Yourself just missed becoming another Top 10 hit for Currington. Written by Shawn Camp and Marv Green, the song tells the story of a breakup that seems inevitable, since both parties realize it's time to move on. The song was on hold for George Strait, and Currington cut it after Strait ultimately passed. The track's horn line and soulful backing vocals, along with the singer's own vocal delivery, make it one of the Top 10 Billy Currington Songs.

    From: 'Billy Currington' (2004)

    Currington scored his second straight Top 10 single with "I Got a Feelin'," the second single from his debut album.

    "Let Me Down Easy"

    From: 'Enjoy Yourself' (2010)

    The second single from Enjoy Yourself was Currington's fourth consecutive No. 1 single. Written by Mark Nesler, Jennifer Hanson and Marty Dodson, "Let Me Down Easy" is a mid-tempo track with a smooth, easygoing groove that's perfect for Currington's voice. The song's loping, acoustic-based verse gives way to a big chorus that allows the singer to demonstrate his range and control. Released in March of 2011, it became the singer's sixth overall chart-topping hit.

    "That's How Country Boys Roll"

    From: 'Little Bit of Everything' (2008)

    Currington brought a little bit of Rolling Stones swagger to his music with "That's How Country Boys Roll." Lyrically the track is a fairly typical working-class anthem, describing how country boys spend both their work and leisure time. But the staggered rhythm guitars, and Currington's deceptively easy vocal delivery, set the song apart from the many others with similar themes at country radio. Released as the third single from Little Bit of Everything, it became Currington's fourth No. 1 hit in March of 2010.

    "Pretty Good at Drinkin' Beer"

    From: 'Enjoy Yourself' (2010)

    Few performers in Nashville have ever matched the easy, feel-good ease of the best of Currington's songs. "Pretty Good at Drinkin' Beer" is a perfect example of the kind of laid-back groove that drives many of his hits -- and like all the others, it's powered by a vocal performance that's so good that it's deceptive. Written by Troy Jones, and released as the first single from Enjoy Yourself, it became Currington's fifth No. 1 hit in September of 2010.

    "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right"

    From: 'Doin' Somethin' Right' (2005)

    By the time he released his second album, Currington was beginning to hone in on the mellow, good-time sound that would earn him much of his success. The album's first single, "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right," was a perfect example of the California-tinged country -rock that would color many of his subsequent releases. Written by Marty Dodson and Patrick Jason Matthews, the song became Currington's first No. 1 hit.

    "People Are Crazy"

    From: 'Little Bit of Everything' (2008)

    "People Are Crazy" is one of the most unique songs to come out of Nashville in years. The song's narrator talks for hours to an older man in a bar, who sums up his life experiences by reflecting, "God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy." Years later, he sees the man's obituary, and learns he was a millionaire who has left him his fortune based on their one random encounter. The song ends with him leaving a six pack on the man's grave, repeating the refrain. "People Are Crazy" became Currington's third No. 1 hit, and was nominated for both a Grammy and an ACM.
