My longest is only 24 weeks, I think. Weak. :\ with a Top 30 though, i get rid of songs easier.

 

That is still over 6 months though, isn't it? :unsure:

 

 

Longest for me currently is The Killers 'Human' with 28 weeks inside my top 40. Second is Scissor Sisters 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' with 26 weeks. However, Lady GaGa 'Bad Romance' is spending its 24th week in my chart at the moment and I'm still liking the song enough to keep the track top 40 so I suspect Lady GaGa will join the exclusive club.

 

No other song has lasted 26 weeks. Most big hits tend to stay around an average of 22 weeks (5 months).

 

Mine is also by The Killers - "A White Demon Love Song" (from the New Moon soundtrack) is currently on 22wks, and will certainly make it to 23wks

6 months is half a year, a year is 52 weeks, therefore 26 weeks is 6 months.

'Alicia Keys - Try Sleeping with a Broken Heart' and 'Lady GaGa - Alejandro' are currently on 21 weeks TSWABH may get to 26 but Alejandro definitely will.

Looking back through the archives, the following songs spent 6 months or more within my chart. JakeyShake's Top 40! has been running since August 2008.

 

33Wks = Lady Gaga feat Beyonce - Telephone

31Wks = Britney Spears - Womanizer

31Wks = Lady Gaga feat Colby O Donis - Just Dance

29Wks = Lady Gaga - Poker Face

28Wks = Beyonce - Halo

28Wks = Ke$ha - Tik Tok

28Wks = Inna - Hot

26Wks = Alexandra Burke feat Flo Rida - Bad Boys

 

One that is way over 6 months is Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart by Alicia. (Approx 9 months)

My chart has been running since January and has been posted since September. Some of these would of spent even longer had the chart started in 2009.

 

Jason DeRulo - Watcha Say (34 weeks) (16-19-22-27-22-25-34-44-42-41-39-38-42-41-44-47-41-38-42-42-36-44-40-47-45-47-43-47-44-48-48-49-50-48-xx)

Black Eyed Peas - I Gotta Feeling (34 weeks) (11-10-11-11-11-29-33-29-31-36-38-43-43-44-47-35-37-32-32-33-27-39-39-46-44-40-40-43-41-42-45-48-45-47-xx)

Iyaz - Replay (33 weeks) (1-1-1-1-1-5-4-6-10-14-13-13-16-19-21-22-18-21-21-23-25-23-21-25-26-25-28-29-33-36-37-38-39-xx)

Jason DeRulo - In My Head (26 weeks) (1-2-2-2-2-3-5-7-11-13-14-18-15-19-19-26-30-29-30-32-31-34-38-39-39-40-xx)

Lady GaGa feat. Beyonce - Telephone (26 weeks) (27-29-12-13-14-6-5-3-7-8-13-14-12-13-16-17-17-25-31-34-36-37-36-40-44-50-xx)

 

Very close to 26 weeks: Tinie Tempah - Pass Out (25 weeks), Plan B - Stay Too Long (25 weeks), Black Eyed Peas - Rock That Body (24 weeks)

 

No tracks from my new chart have been there that long as it's only had 13 issues so far. A lot of these chart runs end when my new chart started, because my new chart moves faster.

 

Jason Derulo likes a long chart run, Ridin' Solo only spent 19 weeks however, including 2 in the new chart.
