Only 18 Country Songs Have Ever Done This -- Now a Cover of a Beloved 1988 Classic Is One of Them

Luke Combs has added a new Spotify milestone to his catalog after his cover of Tracy Chapman’s 1988 classic “Fast Car” officially surpassed one billion streams on the platform. The achievement comes after Combs released his 2023 album Gettin' Old, which included songs such as “Love You Anyway” and “Where the Wild Things Are,” and he aimed to bring “Fast Car” into the one-billion club. Combs got Chapman’s permission and praise, and the two collaborated during the 66th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. “Fast Car” becomes the 18th country song to hit one billion Spotify streams, positioning Combs behind Morgan Wallen on the overall list.
