Original vs Remake #10

Well we have reached the 10th edition of this little show, and we will mark it with a Pop vs country remake of recent vintage.
A song written by Diane Warren for the 1998 movie "Armageddon" and help get Aerosmith their first #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 (after 28 years of record making).

"I Dont Want To Miss A Thing" debuted at the Top of the Billboard Hot 100 September 5th and remained in place for 4 consecutive weeks.  A #4 in the UK it was their highest charting song on that Top 100.



In late 1998 country singer Mark Chestnutt released his version of this song from the album of the same title.  In February of 1999 he topped the Billboard Hot Country singles chart for 2 weeks and #17 on the Hot 100.
