Post Malone’s ‘Circles’ breaks the record for the most weeks spent in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, as it logs a 34th frame in the region.
The track, which tallied three weeks at No. 1 (one each in November, December and January), rebounds from No. 7 to No. 6 on the streaming-, airplay- and sales-based survey dated in the week of 2 May 2020. ‘Circles’ surpasses the mark that the rapper-singer had already shared via his Swae Lee collaboration ‘Sunflower’ which clocked in 33 weeks.
As ‘Circles’ has completed all 34 of its weeks on the Hot 100 in the top 10, dating to its arrival at No. 7 on the 14 September 2019-dated chart, it passes Ed Sheeran’s ‘Shape of You’ for the most weeks tallied in the region from a song’s debut. To-date, ‘Circles’ has drawn 2.9 billion in cumulative radio airplay audience and 732 million U.S. streams as well as sold 457,000 downloads.
‘Circles’ additionally becomes the first title to have spent 30 weeks in the top 10 on Billboard’s mainstream top 40-based Pop Songs airplay chart. The song previously led the list for 10 weeks.
