I’m wondering with the new format change if we will start seeing long runs for big hits at #1 now?

Sorry for the double post but this is #1 on Billboard for an 8th week. He tied the record for most weeks at #1 on country airplay but not most consecutive weeks at #1 which is still held by Lonestar’s “Amazed” which spent all 8 weeks at #1 consecutively. Will Morgan Wallen have the first nine week #1 since David Houston's Almost Persuaded from 1966? Stay tuned.

I have The Essential David Houston The RCA And Epic Years on my phone. Duets with Tammy Wynette and Barbara Mandrell are included.

Unless I've miscounted this was the songs 18th week in the top 10 which means it passed Alan & Jimmy's "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" on Joel Whitburn's All Time Country Songs list.

Morgan Wallen’s ‘You Proof’ Ties Record for Longest Leading Country Airplay No. 1 Plus, Gabby Barrett and Jason Aldean add top 10s.
BY JIM ASKER
MMorgan Wallen claims a share of history on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart as “You Proof” hits a record-tying eight weeks atop the survey.
The song, up 5% to 25.1 million audience impressions Dec. 12-18, according to Luminate, matches the No. 1 Country Airplay runs of Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett’s “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” (2003) and Lonestar’s crossover hit “Amazed” (1999), dating to the chart’s start in 1990.
“You Proof,” released on Big Loud Records, is also the first Country Airplay No. 1 to withstand multiple other leaders amid its command. After it ruled for five weeks (Oct. 15-Nov. 12), Tyler Hubbard’s “5 Foot 9” topped the Nov. 19 chart, followed by Thomas Rhett’s “Half of Me,” featuring Riley Green (Nov. 26). After “You Proof” led again on the Dec. 3 tally, Bailey Zimmerman’s “Fall in Love” paced the Dec. 10 chart, ahead of the two latest weeks at No. 1 for “You Proof” (Dec. 17 and 24).
Wallen co-wrote “You Proof,” his seventh Country Airplay leader, with ERNEST, Ashley Gorley, Keith Smith and Charlie Handsome, the latter of whom also produced it with Joey Moi.
Concurrently, “You Proof” leads the streaming-, airplay- and sales-based Hot Country Songs chart for an 18th week, becoming one of only 10 singles to reign for at least that long (since the list became an all-encompassing genre survey in 1958). It holds at the summit with 28.1 million in all-format radio audience, 12.6 million official streams and 2,000 downloads sold in the U.S. Dec. 9-15.
Barrett Moves ‘Up’ Gabby Barrett nets her third Country Airplay top 10 as “Pick Me Up,” which she co-wrote, pushes 11-9 (18 million, up 9%). Her first two entries each hit No. 1: “I Hope,” for a week in April 2020, and “The Good Ones,” for three frames starting in April 2021.
‘Tequila’ Talking Jason Aldean scores his 36th Country Airplay top 10 as “That’s What Tequila Does” rises 12-10 (16.1 million, up 18%). The single follows “Trouble With a Heartbreak,” which became his 25th leader when it began a three-week reign in May. His first entry, “Hicktown,” marked his first top 10 (No. 10, 2005).
Aldean ties Garth Brooks and Blake Shelton for the ninth-most Country Airplay top 10s. George Strait leads all acts with 61, followed closely by Kenny Chesney (60) and Tim McGraw (59).

If this is the song that breaks the record for most weeks at #1 on Country Airplay then it’s going to be a dirty shame. “Thought You Should Know” should be the one breaking the record.

I think since they changed the chart format and as red hot as Morgan is both could have a legit shot too break it. Then again I’m not good with audience numbers either. I’m just saying “Thought You Should>”You Proof” any day of the week and I remember Lonestar’s “Amazed” being a massive hit in the 90’s. It even topped the pop charts. No country song has had the success of that song lately that I can remember.

Officially the longest running #1 in Billboard Country Airplay history surpassing "Amazed" and "It's 5 'O Clock Somewhere" (via Billboard). Additionally "Thought You Should Know" goes Top 10 and "One Thing At A Time" debuts at #59.

Why couldn't it have been a better Morgan Wallen song... although I feel like compared to some of the bad songs we've had over the years I feel like I see a good song in "You Proof" (and this applies to "Wasted On You") but the production absolutely butchers the song to a point where it's bad, it's actually quite sad because we know Morgan can and have done much better.

This is officially the biggest hit on country airplay as it gets a 9th week at #1. Since the Billboard week ends on Friday now does that mean the charts come out on Saturday now?

Since the Billboard week ends on Friday now does that mean the charts come out on Saturday now? No, the range of the week of genre radio chart is changed in order to align with all-genre radio chart. The charts should still be releasing at the same time (Tuesdays in full) as other charts. This is a rare case where a record is broken during Christmas week so they would want to publish the news as early as possible.

Is this going to get the Christmas-New Year's 3 week treatment? I would actually cry if this song becomes a 11 or 12 week #1.
Also, with Billboard airplay charts beginning to use the Mediabase airplay data, this should make his record almost impossible to break. (Is this an accurate statement? Since Billboard multi-weeks are far more common than MB?)

Will Morgan Wallen have the first nine week #1 since David Houston's Almost Persuaded from 1966? Stay tuned. Now he’s looking to become the first 10 week #1 since 1963 when Buck Owens spent 16 weeks at #1 with “Love’s Gonna Live Here”. The last actual 10 week chart topper was in 1961 which was Marty Robbins’ “Don’t Worry”. Morgan’s “You Proof” is now in the top 60 all time on Joel Whitburn’s top 100.

I hope Jordan Davis can knock off Morgan Wallen. We'll see.

Morgan Wallen’s ‘You Proof’ Becomes First 10-Week No. 1 in Country Airplay Chart History A week earlier, it took over as the sole longest-leading hit.
BY JIM ASKER
MMorgan Wallen hits an unprecedented milestone on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart (dated Jan. 7, 2023) as “You Proof” becomes the first song to lead the list for double-digit weeks.
The song, released on Big Loud Records, rules Country Airplay for a 10th week, with 22.8 million audience impressions Dec. 23-29, according to Luminate.
A week earlier, “You Proof” surpassed two titles that dominated Country Airplay — which began in January 1990 — for eight frames each and had shared the record for the list’s longest command for nearly two decades: Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett’s “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” (2003) and Lonestar’s pop crossover hit “Amazed” (1999).
“Breaking this record is simply a testament to a huge song and Morgan continuing to evolve and strengthen as a vital artist to country radio,” Big Loud vice president of promotion Stacy Blythe told Billboard when “You Proof” notched its ninth week atop Country Airplay. “It also shows the consistent work ethic of the Big Loud radio team and support from radio. There were a lot of folks who stepped up on a holiday week to help us get here and it’s not taken for granted.”
Wallen co-wrote “You Proof” — a stand-alone single that in October became his seventh No. 1 on Country Airplay — with ERNEST, Ashley Gorley, Keith Smith and Charlie Handsome, the lattermost of whom also produced it with Joey Moi.
The track also logs a record-breaking 16th week in the Country Airplay chart’s top three, passing Cole Swindell’s “She Had Me at Heads Carolina,” which spent four weeks at No. 1 beginning in September.

Wow I didn't see the 10th week at #1 coming at all. Figured by now Jordan Davis or Jimmie Allen even would have dethroned this song.

So this is #1 on Billboard Country Airplay for 10 weeks but nowhere to be found on the Mediabase Country chart?
Has this ever happened before? It's stunning.

When was the last time someone had 2 non featured singles in the top 10? Was Luke Combs the last to do it or has it been a lot longer?

What is intriguing to me is that TYSK is in the BB airplay top 10 as well. Does anyone know the last time 2 singles by the same artist were in the BB airplay top 10? and.. is it possible we could see a situation where You Proof is immediately replaced by TYSK at #1 if it lasts a couple more weeks? Would be absolutely wild. FYI, i've been lurking for many many years and finally decided to make a comment here.
