You’ll find largely singles in this Top 30 countdown of Morgan Wallen‘s best songs and biggest hits. But we’ve scattered in a few songs found deep within Wallen’s three albums, If I Know Me and his record-breaking double albums Dangerous and One Thing At a Time.
We’ve even included a few early favorites from his 2025 project, I’m the Problem.

Tapping into heartbreak, “Your Bartender” is a plea to get back the love of Wallen’s life. Realizing that begging probably won’t work, he wishes he could take on the role of someone or something this mystery girl will listen to — like a bartender, her car, the Bible, anything.
Wallen wrote the song with fellow artists Thomas Rhett and Rhett Akins, among others. It appears on his Dangerous: The Double Album, which arrived in 2021.

Morgan Wallen appeared on four episodes of Season 6 of The Voice on NBC. Usher chose him for his team and he lasted to the Battle Rounds, when he lost to Stevie Jo.
The Knoxville-raised singer was between rock and country for most of the show. A cover of “Stay” by Black Stone Cherry foretold where he was headed. Florida Georgia Line had just covered the song, and soon he’d be rubbing elbows with the duo.
