"I'm Yours" not only breaks the record for being the longest-running song in the history of the chart but also is the first song to spend two full years...yeah Ryan rubbed it in. Meanwhile, the next oldest song on the chart, "Hot N Cold" has finally dropped.

OK, now this is getting utterly ridiculous. 2 full years on this chart with NO end in sight.

Yeah, but at least we got rid of the much "younger" "Hot N Cold" after "only" 81 weeks! ;) But yeah, in continuation of last week's thread, this is so silly it's beyond funny now.

Once again though, congrats to Angel Taylor for debuting this week on both AT40 and the Rick Dees Hot AC charts. Hopefully she will have a long run on both charts, but it's been a slow go on the Mediabase and BCS charts so far.

I attended a wedding today for which the soundtrack included none other than "I'm Yours". I couldn't help but laugh. "Geez, bold choice" I thought.

"I'm Yours" will be a classic song that will be played for decades to come at weddings (think "You Are So Beautiful" or "Wonderful Tonight"). But they could have used "Lucky" instead, which in my opinion is an even better wedding song (and song overall) than "I'm Yours", and not even close to being as overplayed as "I'm Yours" is already.

Just my suggestion though for all of those upcoming weddings this season.

Yeah, I have to remind myself that a wedding isn't the best venue to break in new music. Although, I did hear an Orgy cover of "You Spin Me Around Like A Record", so that's not entirely true.

Wow, now THAT'S an interesting choice of music for a wedding! But you're right that that would be a rarity.

You know at this rate it will last for another year.

It's pathetic.
