October 19, 20222 yr Author Steve Lacy’s ‘Bad Habit’ Tops Hot 100 for Third Week, Doja Cat’s ‘Vegas’ Hits Top 10 By Gary Trust | 10/17/2022 Steve Lacy‘s “Bad Habit” notches a third week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, two weeks after it ascended to the summit. Meanwhile, Morgan Wallen achieves his first top five Hot 100 hit as “You Proof” rises from No. 7 to No. 5 and Doja Cat reaches the top 10 with “Vegas” (11-10). The latter samples Big Mama Thornton’s 1953 classic “Hound Dog,” which Elvis Presley famously covered in 1956, marking the latest chart success for the iconic song. “Bad Habit,” released on L-M/RCA Records, tallied 42.3 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 4%), 20.1 million streams (down 2%) and 2,000 downloads sold (down 27%) in the Oct. 7-13 tracking week, according to Luminate. The single, which Lacy solely produced and co-wrote, holds at No. 2 after five nonconsecutive weeks atop the Streaming Songs chart; keeps at its No. 7 high on Radio Songs; and falls to No. 43 from its No. 32 best on Digital Song Sales. Lacy’s first Hot 100 No. 1, from his album Gemini Rights, which debuted as his first Billboard 200 top 10, at its No. 7 high, in July, concurrently tops the multi-metric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, Hot Rock Songs and Hot Alternative Songs charts for an eighth week each and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot R&B Songs charts for a seventh frame each. It became the first song to rule all five rankings (dating to October 2012, when Billboard‘s main genre-based song charts adopted the Hot 100’s methodology). Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ “Unholy” repeats at its No. 2 Hot 100 high, with 23.2 million streams (down 2%), 15.2 million in airplay audience (up 55%) and 12,000 sold (up 10%). It leads both Streaming Songs and Digital Song Sales for a third week and is the first hit to top both charts in its first three weeks on each list since Olivia Rodrigo’s “Drivers License” doubled up in its first three weeks on each survey (Jan. 23, 30 and Feb. 6, 2021; it went on to spend its first four frames atop Streaming Songs). Harry Styles “As It Was” is steady at No. 3 on the Hot 100, after 15 weeks at No. 1 – the fourth-longest reign in the chart’s history. Still, the song, which debuted at No. 1 on the April 16-dated list, extends its record for the most weeks, 28, tallied in the top three, encompassing its entire run on the chart so far. The track also rebounds for a ninth week at No. 1 on Radio Songs (60 million in audience, up 2%). It has led the list over a span of 23 weeks (since its first week atop the chart, dated May 21), the second-longest stretch of a song reigning, after The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” which led for 26 weeks over 28 weeks in 2020. Post Malone’s “I Like You (A Happier Song),” featuring Doja Cat, holds at No. 4 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 3. Morgan Wallen’s “You Proof” rises 7-5 for a new Hot 100 high, becoming the country star’s first top five hit, among four top 10s. Notably, it’s the second top five hit this decade that has reached the region by appearing on, among individual-format airplay charts, only Country Airplay (as opposed to crossing over to pop and/or adult surveys); Luke Combs’ “Forever After All” launched at its No. 2 Hot 100 peak in November 2020. Both tracks gained prominence thanks to strong streaming and country radio airplay, as “You Proof” drew 13.7 million streams in the latest tracking week, as it ranks at No. 8 on Streaming Songs, and tops the Country Airplay chart for a second frame. (“Forever” hit No. 2 on Streaming Songs and No. 1 for six weeks on Country Airplay.) On Radio Songs, “You Proof” lifts 11-10 (34.6 million, up 2%), similarly becoming just the third title to reach the top 10 by appearing on Country Airplay but on no other individual genre chart (since Radio Songs became an all-format summary in December 1998). It joins Combs’ “Forever After All,” which reached No. 10 on Radio Songs in June 2021, and Cole Swindell’s “She Had Me at Heads Carolina,” which hit No. 9 on Radio Songs earlier in October (and topped Country Airplay for four frames starting in September). “You Proof” concurrently commands the multi-metric Hot Country Songs chart for a ninth week. OneRepublic’s “I Ain’t Worried” keeps at its No. 6 Hot 100 best; Nicky Youre and dazy’s “Sunroof” drops 5-7, after hitting No. 4; Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl” holds at No. 8, after it premiered atop the Aug. 27 chart, as it tops the multi-metric Hot Rap Songs chart for a ninth week; and Combs’ “The Kind of Love We Make” is stationary at No. 9 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 8. Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, Doja Cat climbs 11-10 with “Vegas.” The song, from the hit Elvis movie soundtrack, reaches the Radio Songs top five (6-5; 48.5 million, up 4%) and also drew 8 million streams and sold 2,000 in the tracking week. Doja Cat adds her sixth Hot 100 top 10. Prior to “Vegas” and “I Like You,” she tallied “Say So,” featuring Nicki Minaj (No. 1, one week, May 2020); “Kiss Me More,” featuring SZA (No. 3, July 2021); “Need to Know” (No. 8, November 2021); and “Woman” (No. 7, this May). She boasts the most top 10s among women this decade, surpassing Taylor Swift’s five since the start of 2020 (although with Swift appearing primed to reignite that race thanks to her LP Midnights, due this Friday). “Vegas” samples Big Mama Thornton’s “Hound Dog,” a Billboard R&B chart No. 1 for the blues legend (who passed away in 1984) nearly 70 years ago. Written by Songwriters Hall of Fame and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, Elvis Presley’s version crowned multiple Billboard charts in 1956. (The Hot 100 began Aug. 4, 1958.) Presley’s imprint is, thus, extended in the Hot 100’s top 10. Notably, “Hound Dog” was originally released with B-side and fellow classic “Don’t Be Cruel,” also a No. 1 on multiple Billboard surveys in 1956, and Cheap Trick’s faithful cover of the latter hit No. 4 on the Hot 100 in October 1988. Earlier in 1988, Pet Shop Boys likewise sent their interpretation of “Always on My Mind” to No. 4 (that May), after Presley’s ballad version hit No. 16 on Hot Country Songs in 1973. In July 1993, UB40’s take on “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” which Presley took to No. 2 on the Hot 100 in 1962, began a seven-week reign. The late Presley himself appeared on the Hot 100 as recently as January 2021, when his holiday perennial “Blue Christmas,” originally from 1957, hit a No. 33 high, after becoming his highest-charting entry since 1981. “Vegas” (a noteworthy hit in Tupelo, Miss.) additionally becomes Doja Cat’s sixth No. 1 on the Pop Airplay chart. It replaces “I Like You” atop the tally, making her the first artist to dethrone themselves at the summit since Ariana Grande’s “34+35” directly followed her “Positions” to the top in February 2021. Glass Animals’ ‘Heat Waves’ Is Now the Longest Charting Hot 100 Song of All Time By Xander Zellner | 10/17/2022 Glass Animals‘ former five-week Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “Heat Waves” is now solely the longest charting song in the list’s 64-year history, as it tallies a record-breaking 91st week on the latest Oct. 22-dated survey. Ranking at No. 21 on the newest Hot 100, “Heat Waves” surpasses The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” which logged 90 weeks on the chart in 2019-21. Over the course of its run on the chart, “Heat Waves” also broke the record for the steadiest climb to No. 1 when it reached the summit in its 59th week in March. “Wow, all I can say is wow,” Glass Animals frontman Dave Bayley marvels to Billboard about the band’s achievement. “Many of you know when I wrote this song I was writing about missing someone I loved very dearly. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that it would lead to so much love and connection across the globe. You all have done that. Thank you to everyone who has helped this song reach so many people. You know who you are. Thank you.” Here’s an updated look at the songs with the most weeks spent on the Hot 100, from to the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958 inception through the Oct. 22-dated ranking: Most Weeks Spent on the Billboard Hot 100: 91, “Heat Waves,” Glass Animals 90, “Blinding Lights,” The Weeknd 87, “Radioactive,” Imagine Dragons 79, “Sail,” AWOLNATION 77, “Levitating,” Dua Lipa 76, “I’m Yours,” Jason Mraz 69, “Save Your Tears,” The Weeknd & Ariana Grande 69, “How Do I Live,” LeAnn Rimes 68, “Counting Stars,” OneRepublic 68, “Party Rock Anthem” LMFAO feat. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock “Heat Waves” has also spent the second-most weeks in the Hot 100’s top 40 (76), trailing only the sum of “Blinding Lights” (86), and is tied with The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” for the fourth-most weeks spent in the top 20 (57), after “Blinding Lights” (80), Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” (62) and Post Malone’s “Circles” (60). “Heat Waves” debuted at No. 100 on the Hot 100 dated Jan. 16, 2021. The No. 1 song that week was 24kGoldn’s “Mood.” Since then, an additional 27 songs (excluding “Heat Waves”) have reached the pinnacle. From the Jan. 16, 2021-dated Hot 100 to the current, Oct. 22, 2022, chart, “Heat Waves” has ranked alongside a whopping 1,266 other songs. “Heat Waves” is Glass Animals’ first Hot 100 hit. Over its run, it has also spent 37 weeks at No. 1 on both Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Alternative Songs, six weeks at No. 1 on Radio Songs, three weeks at No. 1 on Alternative Airplay and two weeks at No. 1 on both Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay. It also reached No. 5 on Rock & Alternative Airplay, No. 7 on Adult Contemporary and No. 17 on Adult Alternative Airplay. Of the 91 weeks that “Heat Waves” has spent on the Hot 100, 66 were shared with The Weeknd and Ariana Grande’s “Save Your Tears,” the most of any song over the former’s run. “Levitating” follows with 64 shared weeks, then “Stay” (63). As for “Blinding Lights,” the song logged four weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100 and set records for the most weeks spent in the top five (43), top 10 (57), top 20 (80) and top 40 (86). Its longevity helped it earn the distinction as the No. 1 title on Billboard’s Greatest of All Time Hot 100 Songs ranking. “Blinding Lights” had held the longevity record on the Hot 100 since August 2021, when it overtook Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive.” The latter track spent 87 weeks on the chart and had held the mark since 2014, when it surpassed Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours” (76 weeks, 2008-09). Glass Animals’ ‘Heat Waves’ by the Numbers: All the Stats Behind Its Record-Breaking Hot 100 Run By Xander Zellner | 10/17/2022 After a staggering 91 weeks, Glass Animals‘ “Heat Waves” is now solely the longest-charting hit in the Billboard Hot 100‘s 64-year history.

October 19, 20222 yr boo at 505 so close again, guess no chances next week with the Lil baby album bomb drop
October 19, 20222 yr Well dones to Glass Animals 'Heat Waves' ! I prefer it to 'Blinding Lights' although I think that's a minority view generally. It really was one of the songs I associate with the pandemic (even though it peaked at the beginning of this year when pandemic was being to subside) and despite its title always think it sounds better in non sunny weather due to its rather depressing lyrics and mood. Shame it's out next week.
