Well, it had to happen sometime. After an even 60 weeks on the Billboard Mainstream Top 40, "Blinding Lights" drops below #15 and goes recurrent. The range between it and the song at #15 isn't even that narrow, so it wasn't an "oh, so close" situation. Actually, "Blinding Lights" would be #17 without the recurrent rule, as another long-standing song drops below #15 as well. That would be "Bang!" by AJR, a song that many thought was going to become the new "Blinding Lights", as it was still gaining on the chart even though it had been on forever. However, the song lost steam rather quickly and, after 36 weeks, drops off the chart. For the first time in I have no idea how long, the oldest song on the survey has been on for less than 30 weeks. That is "Go Crazy" by Chris Brown/Young Thug, in its 29th week, and still gaining (+679). Perhaps that song will become the new "Blinding Lights"? We'll have to wait and see.

We won't see the new "Blinding Lights" for a while. Specially since it will take over a year for a song to even approach these stats.

We won't see the new "Blinding Lughts" for a while. Specially since it will take over a year for a song to even approach these stats. I wouldn't be too sure of that. It depends on whether "Go Crazy" hangs around or not. As it moves 5-3 in its 29th week, I don't see it going away anytime soon.

RR 1 THE WEEKND Blinding Lights 20127 15625 5502 1000.00 I didn't want to post yesterday cuz AF, but it actually just dropped out of the top 10 for all radio airplay after 54 weeks there. Absolutely insane run. Of course, it was replaced by SYT, so the Weeknd's run lives on!

I believe this will go recurrent on the Hot 100 after it falls below #25. Wonder how many weeks that will take.
I think this week will be its 71st week on the Hot 100, so it's currently charted longer than every song ever except Radioactive (87 weeks), Sail (79 weeks), and I'm Yours (76 weeks)

It would have probably not fallen off during that Xmas week, so add one more to the current tally.
Overall it would probably break Radioactive's record. Especially if the label got involved with some remixes or something.

it will stay in the #11-15 range for another two months or so. I don't think it's dropping below #25 for a long time. If there is an album bomb and it does, is it screwed if it has enough points the following week?
