“Music” “fans” continue to chase the Dragon: after their pair of performances for the Grammys and SNL, both times with Kendrick Lamar, Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive” went from #29 on the Billboard charts to #4. Not only that, but the Killers-lite are about to tie, then break a noteworthy Billboard Hot 100 record.
Most total weeks on the Hot 100
76 weeks – Jason Mraz — “I’m Yours” (2009)
75 weeks – Imagine Dragons — “Radioactive” (2014)
74 weeks – Awolnation — “Sail” (2014)
69 weeks – LeAnn Rimes — “How Do I Live” (1998)
68 weeks – LMFAO featuring Lauren Bennett and GoonRock — “Party Rock Anthem” (2012) (Via)
The key to long-standing Billboard success: make terrible music, apparently.
