This year has got to be one of the best for Blake Shelton. So far in 2010 he has had a #1 song with “Hillbilly Bone” that he did with Trace Adkins, which was the sixth number one single of his career, and also won the Academy of Country Music Vocal Event of the Year and the CMT Music Awards Collaborative Video of the Year, then in June of this year he announced the engagement to long time girlfriend and fellow country performer Miranda Lambert.

Now Blake has the current top country song with “All About Tonight” which becomes the 7th number one single for the singer from Oklahoma. The album that is also named All About Tonight became the #1 country album and you can consider this a home run for Blake.

Currently he is on tour and loves to play up to the crowds with some humour and of course some stories of what is going on with him lately . He is a little outspoken and if you go to the Blake Shelton Twitter page you will get a chance to see what is on his mind at the moment.

Red roadside wildflower,
if I’d only picked you,
took you home, set you on the counter,
oh at least a time or two,
maybe she’d have thought it through.
Yellow sunset
Slowly dippin’ down in the rearview,
oh how she loved to sit and watch you,
I could’ve done that a whole lot more.

Red roadside wildflower,
if I’d only picked you,
took you home, set you on the counter,
oh at least a time or two,
maybe she’d have thought it through.
