Breaking the record for the most weeks a single song has spent on the Pop Airplay chart, Selena Gomez has cemented her position in pop music history. The song in question, Rema’s “Calm Down,” featuring Selena Gomez, has been at the top of the charts for an astounding 64 weeks.
Gomez’s accomplishment beats the previous record held by Harry Styles’ “As It Was,” which was on the Pop Airplay list for 63 weeks, according to Billboard. “Calm Down,” which is now at No. 8 on the Pop Airplay chart, is expected to somewhat decline to No. 12 on the upcoming Billboard update on January 17.
Even with the predicted decline in popularity, “Calm Down” continues to be very popular. After more than a year on the chart, the song has remained in the top 10, indicating that listeners are still in demand for it. “Calm Down” keeps getting better every week, raising the prospect of sustained chart success for months to come.
With this achievement, “Calm Down” joins a select group of songs that have attained a minimum of 60 weeks on the Pop Airplay list. Alongside Harry Styles’s “As It Was” and The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” the song has had a lasting impression on contemporary pop music history.
“Calm Down,” a song by Rema, was first intended to be a solo release. However, when Selena Gomez contributed her international fame and skills to the collaboration, the song’s course was drastically altered. The song achieved remarkable success on other charts, such as the Pop Airplay chart, where it reached its highest position of No. 3 on the Hot 100.
Selena Gomez’s “Calm Down” is still quite popular, and the music industry is excited about what she will release next.
