“SAVE ME THE TROUBLE is officially our 10th #1 at country radio! We couldn’t think of a better way to kick off 2024 and the BIGGER HOUSES album cycle. Huge thank you to all the stations who played the song and our fans for continuing to believe in the music. In this season of immense gratitude, seeing our name at the top of the chart means more than ever. Can’t wait to celebrate with everyone on the road this year, and here’s to the next one,” Dan + Shay posted on Instagram.

Smyers commented, “If you would have told me 10 years ago that we would have ONE #1, I would have said you were crazy, but now y’all have given us 10 #1s and we are truly so grateful. It’s not lost on us how difficult it is to have a song reach the top of the chart, so we promise to never take a single second of it for granted. Thank y’all for absolutely everything, we are the luckiest guys in the world.”

Dan + Shay recently guest-hosted Shawn Parr’s Backstage Country and gave us some insight on the No. 1 hit. “We’re so proud of this one. I feel like it’s in the top three Dan and Shay songs we’ve ever written and recorded. I feel like it’s up there with ‘Speechless’ and ‘Tequila’ and those songs,” Smyers told Parr.

Dan + Shay will hit the road in February for their headlining 2024 The Heartbreak On The Map Tour with special guests Ben Rector and Hailey Whitters. For more information, visit danandshay.com.

  Inspired by the love shared by the duo member's respective grandparents, the song was written shortly after Dan lost his grandfather and while Shay's was in the hospital. The duo called it "the most special song we've ever written."

• 7. “Glad You Exist” (2021)

  Share

  Dan Smyers told the press that he had the phrase "glad you exist" to be appreciative of his wife Abby Smyers and to be grateful that she is living in the same time as him. He brought it to Shay Mooney, and the two were thinking of ideas, wanting to create a gratitude song about their friends, family, and fans.

• 6. “All to Myself” (2019)

  Share

  The video for the song was released in April 2019. Using the theme of shadows, it shows the duo performing the song in a dark room, while shadows (which are pieces of paper with the song's lyrics cut into them) appear on a wall in the same room.
• 5. “Tequila” (2018)

  Share

  This song made a big impact on Dan + Shay’s career. The song won the Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the 61st Grammy Awards as well as both Single and Song of the Year at the 54th Academy of Country Music Awards. It's a great anthem.

• 4. “Speechless” (2018)

  Share

  A great wedding song. The song's video is great too. It features footage from Smyers' and Mooney's 2017 weddings, including the grooms' first looks at their brides, the brides walking down the aisle, and the couples' introductions at their respective receptions.

• 3. “Lying” (2021)

  Share

  The duo’s single from August 2021. It's a great song with a vibe and lyrics to match. In July 2021, Dan + Shay announced the song and its release date along with a teaser video. On the song's chorus, they sing the lines, "I don't miss you in my bed / I don't hear you in my head / I don't love you / I'm not cryin' / And I swear, I'm not lyin.'"
• 2. “I Should Probably Go to Bed” (2020)

  Share

  In my interview about the song with the duo, the duo gushed about how excited they were for this one to come out. Smyers also produced the song and played every instrument on it from his own house. He told me that he had the song's title saved on his phone for months before the conception of the song.

• 1.”10,000 Hours” (with Justin Bieber) (2019)

  Share

  An amazing song and surely a song that will be played at countless weddings for decades to come. The song was named Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the 2021 Grammy Awards. In addition, “10,000 Hours” debuted at number four on the US Billboard Hot 100. It also made history on Billboard's Streaming Songs chart by becoming the highest-charting non-holiday country song in the history of the chart, besting the number nine peak of Florida Georgia Line's "Cruise.”
