Joseph Haberdank Celebrates #1 Hit Song

Southern Gospel/Gospel Roots artist JOSEPH HABERDANK recently celebrated his second career number 1 song on the Singing News Top 80 Chart. “Goliath” hit the number 1 position on the chart which will be featured in the May issue of Singing News Magazine. The powerful chart-topper also snagged the #1 spot on the Christian Music Weekly Chart for nine weeks in a row, as well as the Singing News POWER 50 Weekly Chart.

This is Habedank’s second #1 single from his 2019 Grammy and Dove Award-nominated recording Deeper Oceans. Penned by Michael Boggs, Jason Cox, and Joseph Habedank, “Shame On Me” hit the #1 spot on the Singing News Top 80 Chart in November 2019.

“Goliath,” written by Daniel Doss, Sue C. Smith, and Joseph Habedank, debuted on the Singing News Top 80 Chart in January of this year and quickly climbed to the top of the charts. This powerful song reminds listeners that there’s no weapon formed against them that is stronger than Jesus Christ.

Joseph Habedank — ‘Goliath’

Joseph Habedank’s latest single, “Goliath”, is something we can all relate to: facing down the giants in our lives. Here’s Joseph talking about the writing of the song:

“After a concert, I like to go back to my hotel room and unwind watching TV. I saw a commercial for a TV show called Goliath that I had never seen before. I thought it was an amazing idea for a Gospel song. I started thinking about all the giants we face in our lives, and I took the idea to Daniel Doss and Sue Smith. I walked into the co-writing session, and told them I wanted to write a song about Goliath. Daniel said, “that’s so crazy. I’m reading a book about Goliath right now.” I just knew it was a God thing.

We wrote this, and I forgot about it. When I’m writing for an album, I typically write 50 to 100 songs. I’ll never forget sitting at the Dallas Airport listening to the demo from Daniel, and I knew we had to cut it even though we had already picked the songs for the Deeper Oceans project. Sue was in the audience the first time I performed this song. She said it was so fun to see the audience react to the last line: I know my Goliath is coming down.

“Many thanks to the DJs that are playing it and to Sue and Daniel for writing it with me.”
