Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Holds Off Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ for 27th Week Atop Hot 100

By Gary Trust | 11/09/2026

Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” continues at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a record-extending 27th week atop the chart.

The smash fends off a Halloween-sparked surge for Michael Jackson’s 1980s classic “Thriller,” which pounces to a new No. 2 Hot 100 peak.

As “Choosin’ Texas” furthers its reign, here’s an updated look at the longest-leading hits, ranked by most weeks spent at No. 1, since the Hot 100 began in August 1958:

27 weeks (to date), “Choosin’ Texas,” Ella Langley, 2026

22, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” Mariah Carey, 2019-26

19, “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Shaboozey, 2024

19, “Old Town Road,” Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus, 2019

16, “Last Night,” Morgan Wallen, 2023

16, “Despacito,” Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee feat. Justin Bieber, 2017

16, “One Sweet Day,” Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men, 1995-96

“Choosin’ Texas” first led the Hot 100 in February, on its way to setting multiple chart records.

Notably, the three metrics that power the Hot 100 are paced by spook-tacular titles: “Thriller” tops the Streaming Songs and Digital Song Sales charts, each for the first time, and “Dracula” holds at No. 1 on Radio Songs.

“Choosin’ Texas,” on SAWGOD/Columbia Records, with Triple Tigers having promoted it to country radio, totaled 18.8 million official streams (down 2% week over week), 53 million radio airplay audience impressions (down 8%) and 4,000 sold (up 5%) in the United States Oct. 30-Nov. 5.

The single holds at No. 2 following a record-tying 26 weeks atop Streaming Songs; likewise keeps at No. 2, its high, on Radio Songs; and drops to No. 2 after a record 20 weeks atop Digital Song Sales.

“Choosin’ Texas” also leads the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart for a 48th week.

Jackson’s “Thriller” vaults from No. 20 to No. 2 for a new Hot 100 best, more than four decades after it first appeared on the chart. The song soared to 17.4 million streams (up 87%), 11.3 million in radio reach (up 172%) and 4,000 sold (up 48%) in the tracking week that included Halloween.

The track leaps 10-1 on Streaming Songs and 4-1 on Digital Song Sales for its first week atop each list. The late King of Pop, who died in 2009, achieves his first leader on both charts. (While the song’s sum of raw streams is the week’s second-highest, after “Choosin’ Texas,” “Thriller” leads Streaming Songs due to the application of weighting to all titles’ paid/subscription and ad-supported on-demand streams and programmed/radio streams.)

“Thriller” hits a new Hot 100 high 42 years and nine months after it first made the chart; it previously peaked at No. 4 for two weeks in March 1984. It was released as the seventh and final top 10 from Jackson’s album of the same name that ruled the Billboard 200 for 37 weeks — the most for a set by a single artist. It also made the album the first with as many as seven top 10 Hot 100 hits.

Here’s an updated look at the peaks for Thriller’s Hot 100 top 10s:

No. 1, seven weeks, “Billie Jean,” beginning March 5, 1983

No. 1, three weeks, “Beat It,” April 30, 1983

No. 2, “Thriller,” Nov. 14, 2026

No. 2, “The Girl Is Mine,” with Paul McCartney, Jan. 8, 1983

No. 5, “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’,” July 16, 1983

No. 7, “Human Nature,” Sept. 17, 1983

No. 10, “P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing),” Nov. 26, 1983

While Jackson last ranked in the Hot 100’s top 10 a year ago this week, when “Thriller” lunged to No. 10, he has his highest placement in 31 years, one month and three weeks, since “You Are Not Alone” was No. 2, after it became his 13th leader as a soloist (to go along with four by the Jackson 5 with him as a member).

Plus, with Jackson at No. 2 on both the Hot 100 and Billboard 200, where Thriller roars 13-2, he appears in the charts’ top two simultaneously for the first time since the lists dated Jan. 18, 1992, when “Black or White” was in its seventh and last week atop the Hot 100 and parent album Dangerous ranked at No. 2 following four weeks on top.

Tame Impala and JENNIE’s “Dracula” ascends two spots to a new No. 3 Hot 100 high. In the tracking week that encompassed Halloween, it bounded by 31% to 9.4 million streams and 8% to 2,000 sold.

The song reaches the top three in its 58th week on the Hot 100, completing the longest journey to the region by total chart weeks. It surpasses the 51 weeks that Glass Animals’ “Heat Waves” took in 2021-22.

Also with the rise, JENNIE ties her BLACKPINK bandmate ROSÉ for the highest Hot 100 rank by a woman prominent in K-pop (Korean pop). Bruno Mars and ROSÉ’s “APT.” peaked at No. 3 in February 2025.

“Dracula” concurrently leads the multimetric Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart for a 44th week and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs for a 25th, as it tops Radio Songs for an eighth week (62.6 million, down 1%).

Tate McRae’s “Housewife” slips to No. 4 in its third week on the Hot 100, after spending its first two frames at No. 2.

Stella Lefty’s “Boston” falls two places (3-5) on the Hot 100, as does Morgan Wallen’s “Been by Now” (4-6), with both having reached No. 2, while ADÉLA’s “Nicole Kidman” backtracks a spot from its No. 6 best.

Karol G’s “BbY WOW,” with Judeline and rusowsky, rises 9-8 on the Hot 100, after hitting No. 6. It tops the multimetric Hot Latin Songs chart for a 12th week.

Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” lifts 10-9, after it led in its debut week in June, and Olivia Rodrigo’s “Stupid Song” returns to the tier (12-10), after hitting No. 3.

YouTube Streaming Data to Return to Billboard Charts

The update follows Billboard's announcement to update its chart methodology in 2027.

By Billboard Staff | 11/09/2026

YouTube’s global head of music Lyor Cohen said in a blog post Monday (Nov. 9) that the company’s streaming data will return to Billboard’s charts, resuming in 2027.

The blog post follows Billboard’s announcement earlier on Monday that the chart methodology will change to narrow the ratio between paid/subscription streams and ad-supported streams to 1:1.5 after previously having been at a 1:2.5 ratio.

“We are returning to the Billboard charts starting in 2027,” Cohen wrote, in a two-line update to YouTube’s original announcement from December 2025 that it was pulling out of the charts. “Billboard’s new methodology better reflects how fans engage with music today across both subscription and ad-supported services.”

Effective Jan. 16 (reflecting data from Jan. 1-7), each album consumption unit on the Billboard 200 will equal 1,500 ad-supported or 1,000 paid-subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. Currently, the Billboard 200 considers each album consumption unit as equal to 2,500 ad-supported streams or 1,000 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs on an album. Each album consumption unit equals one album sale or 10 individual tracks sold from an album.

YouTube withdrew its streaming data from the Billboard charts earlier this year, beginning with the charts dated Jan. 31, in response to Billboard’s announcement that paid/subscription streams would be weighed against ad-supported streams at a 1:2.5 ratio.

YouTube was first included as part of the Billboard charts in 2013, when its streaming data was incorporated into Billboard’s song charts, including the Hot 100. Billboard was the first to include YouTube’s streaming data in charts. In 2019, Billboard began incorporating YouTube streaming data into the Billboard 200.

Paid/subscription streams were first weighted higher than ad-supported streams on the Billboard charts in 2019, and international organizations including the IFPI also began to incorporate weighted systems. At the time, Billboard wrote, “It is Billboard’s belief that assigning values to the levels of consumer engagement and access — along with the compensation derived from those options — better reflects the varied user activity occurring on these services.”
