Racine, WI (PRWEB) March 13, 2008 -- A surprise performance by country music star Craig Morgan at the annual Case IH dealer meeting left attendees yelling for more. Morgan obliged the excited crowd with an encore performance of his most recent hit song, "International Harvester."
A Top 10 country hit, "International Harvester" has spent 24 straight weeks on the Billboard Hot Country Chart.
"International Harvester" also is one of the Top 10 video downloads on CMT.com. "There were a couple of songs about another tractor a few years back, but downloads of this song have more than doubled those combined," said Morgan.
According to Billboard.com, "International Harvester" continues to have great airplay and sales gains. Morgan's other hit songs include "Almost Home," "RedneckYacht Club" and "That's What I Love About Sunday."
