Harry Styles’ “As It Was” had an amazing chart run in 2022: It spent 15 weeks at No. 1, which was (and remains) tied for the third-longest chart-topping run in Billboard Hot 100 history. All the other songs above it and tied with it were collaborations, so Styles had the biggest solo song ever. However, he no longer holds the record. On the new Hot 100 dated August 19, Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” is No. 1 for a 16th total week, making it the new longest-running non-collaboration No. 1 song of all time.
