Morgan Wallen Just Tied Mariah Carey for This Chart Record



Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” ties Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” for the second-most weeks spent atop Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart in the tally’s decade-long history, crowning the Aug. 19-dated survey.

“Last Night” leads Streaming Songs for an 18th nonconsecutive week with 26.3 million official U.S. streams in the Aug. 4-10 tracking week, down 2%, according to Luminate.

The song first crowned the Streaming Songs list dated March 18, its sixth week on the ranking, boasting 47.5 million streams that week. It has not fallen below No. 3 since.

An 18th week at No. 1 ties Carey’s holiday anthem, which first led Streaming Songs upon the Jan. 5, 2019, chart and has returned each year since for anywhere between three and five weeks at No. 1 during the holiday season.

The record for most weeks at No. 1 belongs to Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, which reigned for 20 weeks in 2019.

20 weeks, “Old Town Road,” Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus (2019)

“Last Night” remains Wallen’s only Streaming Songs-topping tune. He first appeared on the ranking with “Whiskey Glasses” in 2019 and rose as high as No. 3 twice with “Wasted on You” in 2021 and “Don’t Think Jesus” in 2022 prior to the reign of “Last Night.”

It concurrently spends its 27th week at No. 1 on Country Streaming Songs, which is halfway to the overall record, kept by Bebe Rexha and Florida Georgia Line’s “Meant to Be,” which ruled for 55 weeks in 2017, 2018 and 2019.

As previously reported, “Last Night” spends a 16th week at No. 1 on the multi-metric Billboard Hot 100.
