The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” has broken the record for the most weeks spent on the Billboard Hot 100. As of this current week, the track has now gone through 88 weeks on the outline, prevailing over Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive,” which went through 87 weeks on the Hot 100 from 2012-14. The melody right now sits at #18, which implies it’s presumably at no danger of tumbling off the graph at any point in the near future.
“Blinding Lights” first appeared up on the outline on 12/14/19, debuting at #11. It arrived at #1 on 4/4/20 and spent through about a month in the best position. En route, it broke records for the most time spent in the best five, 10, 20, and 40. Back in March, it turned into the main tune to spent an entire year in the Hot 100’s Top 10.
“Blinding Lights” appeared up on the Weeknd’s 2020 collection After Hours. He has effectively fired preparing for his next time. A week and a half back, he delivered another single called “Take My Breath.”
