Miranda Lambert's 'House' Breaks Records

Miranda LambertMiranda Lambert's latest hit, 'The House That Built Me,' continues to hold strong at No. 1 on the country singles chart for the fourth consecutive week. By holding down the top position, Miranda breaks this year's record by having the longest running No. 1 song of the year on the Media Base/Aircheck Chart.

"It's the lyrics that deserve the credit," Miranda says of the song, which was written by Allen Shamblin and Tom Douglas. "It's an amazing song, and I am so honored to have recorded it."

'House' ties the record with Reba McEntire's 'Consider Me Gone' for the longest run at No. 1 on another chart -- the BDS/Billboard hot country songs tally. Miranda's chart-topper is featured on the ACM Album of the Year winner, 'Revolution,' which also produced the Texas songbird's very first No. 1 single, 'White Liar.'

Miranda recently wrapped up her first headlining tour, which sold out 17 of its 25 shows and set attendance records in three different cities. Miranda is now gearing up to join the Lilith Fair tour this summer.

well for this song, it's definitely the lyrics; as long as royalties are coming in, i bet the writer is fine with that. ;)

I've never heard the song but it's ironic she'd praise they lyric as if the song has no music at all. I'd feel a bit insulted if I was one of the writers.

In olden daze, the poet praised his words, as the lutist plunked. We see that a recording is driven by the words, and music is the back drop driving the words. Listen to Tom T. Hall. Great songs, but it is the words, he is noted for being a poet.

I'm not a country music fan,but I really love this song. My daughter's very close friend just passed away as a result of a car accident...she was 20 years old, and a country girl. My daughter said this was Kally's favorite song. Now when I hear it, I will always think of her. It breaks my heart that she's no longer with us, but I DO know where she is, with her Heavenly Father.
God bless, Miranda, for such a beautiful song.
