"Record Year" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Eric Church. It was released to radio on February 16, 2016 as the second single from his fifth studio album, Mr. Misunderstood. It was written by Church and Jeff Hyde. It peaked at number 44 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 on the Country Airplay chart.

The song is about a man who recovers from a broken heart by listening to a collection of vinyl record albums. Its lyrics include references to various musical artists to whom the narrator is listening.

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country reviewed the single favorably, praising the songwriting and saying that "Eric Church has never sung heartbreak the same way twice — a streak that remains intact with Record Year. The second single from his Mr. Misunderstood album finds him hurting in a whole new way."

"Record Year" reached No. 1 on the Country Airplay chart, which is Church's seventh No. 1 on the chart. It also peaked at No. 2 on the Hot Country Songs chart. The song has sold 447,000 copies in the US as of November 2016.

The music video was directed by Reid Long and John Peets and premiered in April 2016.
