In the latest Hot 100 chart (dated March 13) that is set to be published later today (March 9), ‘Blinding Lights’ will remain in the top 10 for the 52nd consecutive week – ensuring that it is the first song ever in the Hot 100’s history (which dates back to August 1958) to spend a year in the top 10.
The track is well ahead of previous record-holder Post Malone (‘Circles’, which spent 39 weeks in the top 10 between 2019 and 2020) and Malone and Swae Lee’s collaboration ‘Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse)’ (33 weeks in 2018-19).
