Chris Young (album)
Chris Young is the debut album by American country music artist Chris Young, who in 2006 was a winner on the television singing competition Nashville Star. Released on Arista Nashville in 2006, the album produced two chart singles for Young on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts: "Drinkin' Me Lonely" and "You're Gonna Love Me", which respectively reached No. 42 and No. 48, making this the only album of Young's career not to produce any top 40 hits. However "Drinkin' Me Lonely" did reach top 40 territory, peaking at #38, for Media Base, which was the chart used by Bob Kingsley's "Country Top 40" at the time.
