Sara Evans Is ‘A Little Bit Stronger’ at No. 1

Sara Evans' 'A Little Bit Stronger' takes over the top of both the Mediabase/Country Aircheck and Billboard country singles charts this week. Miranda Lambert's 'Heart Like Mine' is No. 2 on both charts, followed by Kenny Chesney's 'Live a Little,' which drops to No. 3.

With all of the ups and downs Sara has gone through over the course of the past few years, she was intensely drawn to 'A Little Bit Stronger,' and felt an urgent need to record the song. "I'm definitely relating to that title," Sara tells The Boot. "I mean, I feel stronger in every single way. No one wants to go through a hard time in their life, but everyone's going to, and most people have. I just feel stronger now in every single way possible: physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, romantically. Just in every single way, I'm a stronger woman because of going through hard times. 'A Little Bit Stronger' is definitely a huge statement, not only for me, but hopefully, it speaks to my fans."

The country songstress is nominated for a CMT Music Award for Female Video of the Year for 'A Little Bit Stronger,' which is from her latest album, 'Stronger.' The 2011 CMT Music Awards will air live from Nashville June 8 on CMT.
