The album produced the singles "Alcohol", "When I Get Where I'm Going", "The World", and "She's Everything". "Alcohol" was a number 4 hit on the
Billboard
Hot Country Songs charts, while the other three singles were all Number Ones. "Waitin' on a Woman" was re-recorded in mid-2008 as a bonus track for Paisley's
5th Gear album, and this re-recording was issued in June 2008 as a single.
Content
The first single from Time Well Wasted was "Alcohol", which reached a peak of number 4 on the
Billboard country charts in mid-2005. After it came "When I Get Where I'm Going", featuring background vocals from
Dolly Parton . This song became Paisley's fifth Number One and Parton's twenty-fifth, as well as her first since the
Ricky Van Shelton duet "
Rockin' Years " in 1991. It also made her the oldest female artist to have a Number One hit on the country charts.
"The World", the third single, became Paisley's highest-debuting single when it entered the charts at number 37, and was his sixth Number One. Finishing off the single releases was "She's Everything", also a Number One. "Waitin' on a Woman", a cut from this album, was re-recorded and released to radio in 2008, and was added to his next studio album, 2007's
5th Gear . Upon its reaching Number One, the re-recording of "Waitin' on a Woman" became Paisley's eighth Number One in a row, setting a new record for the most consecutive country Number One hits since the inception of
Nielsen SoundScan in 1990.
