Chart runs became much longer practically overnight after Billboard switched over to Soundscan and BDS systems at the end of 1991.

For consistency I should have moved Tarzan Boy to the 90s list. It's 90s run though was brief and did not chart very high
The Fours Seasons song in the 90s list was two separate chart runs of 27 weeks, the first one occurring in the 70s

1958-1969 39 The Twist, Chubby Checker An asterisk: This was released twice (hitting #1 both times!) for those who aren't aware. Plus, in the entire 80s top ten, only "Tainted Love", "Bust a Move", "Gloria", and "Jessie's Girl" accumulated their weeks from a single chart run. The rest each had two (with "Tarzan Boy" 's second run happening in 1993.) You've also listed both "You and Me" and "How to Save a Life" twice in the 2000s list. ;) LOL - fixed |

LOL, and I overlooked the Four Seasons song.  FWIW, Tarzan Boy's run in the 80s was 26 weeks, still fairly high on the list for a single chart run. |

Great info, Gary, thanks!! I was surprised at Tarzan Boy's. That was my gem in the 80s  but I thought it had semi flopped in the US. Didn't know it had a second run -and due to the Tortuninjas! Wow! Also just FYI you included Higher and Amazed in 2 lists too. |

Pretty cool lists. I wonder did the recurrents play a huge parts in the longevity of the songs back in the 90s. I'm sure that & of course now sales & streaming will continue to have songs remain on the charts for a lengthy time. 35-40+wks on the H100 almost seems to be the norm now.

Wow it's crazy how it's been working over the years...not even a single song got a year on the Hot 100 until the 90s! And then starting from the 90s there have been at least 10 songs to achieve the feat including 2010s which aren't even half over yet! #veryinteresting

LOL! Look at that 2000's longevity list!
For a decade that was defined by rhythmic hip-hop, look how many songs are from that genre!

And then starting from the 90s there have been at least 10 songs to achieve the feat including 2010s which aren't even half over yet! #veryinteresting That's significantly because before they changed methodologies in the early 90s, the chart was tabulated from lists submitted by stations and retailers rather than actual raw sales and airplay data. That made it much easier for labels to request for their newer material to be represented in those lists rather than older songs. |

The list is made up of all Hot AC/AC crossovers, which is how those songs managed to stay so long on the Hot 100. Once rap hits were done at CHR/Pop, Urban, and Rhythmic, they were done. They didn't have another format running them into the ground for an entire year afterward. |

Does Billboard counts the points for those songs that have been recurrent?

Have always been fascinated how different the 80s charts would have been if they had Soundscan and BDS a few years earlier. I am convinced that huge sales for songs like "You Gotta Fight for your right to Party" or "Bust a Move" would have sent those songs to #1. And with an average of about 12 #1 songs a year (as opposed to 28), there would have been some major shakeups. Michael Jackson all year?

"Pump Up The Volume" would have performed much better on the charts as well. |

Longevity in the 1990s additionally was impacted by the lack of several songs not being able to chart because they didn't have single (resulting in fewer huge chart entries - think Don't Speak and some weird chart anomalies - such as You Were Meant For Me/Foolish Games. Since Foolish Games was remixed for Batman ST and released (airplay only), Billboard didn't realize that FG (album version) was the "B-side" to YWMFM until several weeks later (I think it made a sudden jump from 25 to 12 because it was only then that Billboard started counting it as a double-A single). Of course, by this point in the chart run, the CD single wasn't even available on a mass basis because it had long sold through.

"Before He Cheats" had already completed a very fruitful life on Country (5 weeks at #1) just as Pop was picking it up. A/C followed soon after. It almost had three separate chart lives. |

So do we consider Radioactives longevity record separate from I'm Yours since it wasn't consecutive weeks?
I'm thinking 70+ consecutive weeks is a better achievement than 70+ non consecutive

It only had 2 non-consecutive weeks at the beginning. It could very well get more consecutive weeks.

This may be a bit of a stretch, but I was wondering if the release of the movie "Pompeii" will have a positive impact on the song "Pompeii" (still my favourite song on the HOT 100).

I dunno if it'll have any kind of impact either way (I mean, I do kind of wonder, but I can't think of a concrete reason why either way), but seeing ads for the movie, I do think it's rather interesting timing with both out there at once.

They really should. For example, Gangnam Style lost a LOOOOT of points as it was #1 on Streaming Songs for six weeks after going recurrent. It ended up being at a lower position than Gentleman on the Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Now it's quite obvious that Gangnam Style was the much more popular song even in 2013 so clearly not counting recurrent points is very inaccurate. |

Was Swift's "Red" ever actually released as a single? I know it had that one week giant digital burst and then I never heard of it apart from country radio.
