^Wow, that must be a record for the slowest climb. Did Ryan say anything about it?

Also, my favorite extras are Hello and Underdog. And yes, hopefully we'll hear from Underdog again in the next couple of weeks.

Yes, Ryan mentioned so!

My favorites are Some Nights and Feel It Still (also you forgot to include High Hopes on your extra list)

Yup. The previous record was 29 weeks, The Bones slayed that.

Thank you! I concentrated on listening to Top 2 and the new record.

[musiciscool]

My favorite extras are Some Nights, Feel It Still, Wolves, High Hopes, and I'll Be There.

So glad Maren Morris gets her first solo #1 song of the week. It has been a very interesting and exciting chart run.

Those are the ones I like and I bolded my favorites.

If "Underdog" re-enters (which it most likely will), that will be the first song to re-enter HAC AT40 since "Bad Things" by Machine Gun Kelly & Camila Cabello back in 2017.

This week we say goodbye to "If We Never Met" by John K. It peaked at #12 and spent 25 weeks on the chart.

Doja Cat has the only debut this week with "Say So" at #36.

Camila Cabello and DaBaby have our fastest rising song this week with "My Oh My" rising 6 spots to #20.

The Jonas Brothers fall 10 to #26 with "What A Man Gotta Do", the biggest fall of the week.

Billie Eilish can say these words: I have "Everything I Wanted". She gets her 2nd top 10 hit!

After rebounding to #1 last week, Post Malone falls to #4 with "Circles". Dua Lipa holds #3 with "Don't Start Now". Maroon 5 holds #2 with "Memories". And Maren Morris gets her 2nd #1 with "The Bones" jumping from #4 to #1! This song took 41 weeks to hit #1, the slowest climb to #1 in AT40 history! The previous record was held by The Script's "Breakeven", with 29 weeks. How long can "The Bones" stay on top for? Find out in the weeks to come!

Because of "The Bones" breaking the longest climb record, I've added the longest climb record here.

Ryan mentioned that Maroon 5 now ties with Black Eyed Peas for the group with most #1 songs (5 each) on the Digital Sales chart.

[johnnywest]

Anyone know how long it took “Chasing Cars” to hit #1?

[Fire]

If anyone is interested I've pasted the #1 story about "The Bones" here

"Chasing Cars" achieved #1 for 4 weeks on American Top 20 (Hot AC) in February, 2007, before Ryan's Hot AC show started in December 2008. Eventually, the song landed at #7 on the AT20's 2007 Year-End Top 60 show and at #2 on the Mediabase 2007 Year-End Hot AC chart.
While I do not have the then weekly Mediabase data handy, on the Radio & Records Hot AC chart (which ranked top 40 songs), it reached #1 on February 9, 2007 after 35 weeks on chart.

We expect to listen to a lot of the Covid-19 Quarantine themed songs on radio, some of which are going to apprear or re-appear on the AT40.

ITWAN, ITWWE, and LOC are all definitely climbing up rapidly because of the pandemic. "Underdog" is also rebounding.

I'm really excited for "Better Days" and "Rainbow" though. I absolutely love those songs.
