YOUR FAVORITE CMT SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

We Asked Country Artists for Their All-Time Favorite Country Song

And We Had No Idea the List Would Look Like This

You never really know what you're going to get when you ask someone for their all-time favorite country song. Will it be a brand new one they just heard on country radio ten times in one day? Will it be the very first one they ever heard? Will it be the one that reminds them of a first love? Or will it be The One That Made Them Move to Nashville?

So we didn't know exactly what to expect when we asked the artists the question ahead of the 2020 CMT Music Awards, but we loved that their answers are from all over the map and from just about every era of the genre.

Here's the full list:

Noah Cyrus' is her father Billy Ray Cyrus' "She's Not Crying Anymore"

Gabby Barrett's is Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You"

Morgan Wallen's is Keith Whitley's "Don't Close Your Eyes"

Sam Hunt's is George Jones' "He Stopped Loving Her Today"

Jimmie Allen's is Kenny Chesney's "Don't Blink"

Kane Brown's is Randy Travis' "Three Wooden Crosses"

(Brown also loves Tim McGraw's "I Like It I Love It")

Little Big Town had a few:

McGraw's "Humble & Kind"

Willie Nelson's "Always on My Mind"

Nelson's "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain"

Sarah Hyland's is Reba's "Somebody"
