Beyonc\u00e9 did so in April 2024 when \u201cTexas Hold \u2019Em\u201d led and \u201cII Most Wanted,\u201d with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/artist\/miley-cyrus\/\">Miley Cyrus<\/a>, debuted at No. 2. Swift dominated in October 2012 during the rollout of her album <em>Red<\/em>, when \u201cWe Are Never Ever Getting Back Together\u201d and the title track ranked Nos. 1 and 2, respectively.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tOverall, few artists have managed to lock down both Nos. 1 and 2 simultaneously for multiple weeks, and they\u2019ve done so across very different eras of the chart. Morgan Wallen\u2019s record 25-week streak came last year, in today\u2019s streaming-driven landscape, among an unprecedented 37 total weeks that he\u2019s earned the honor since 2022, far surpassing earlier runs such as Dan + Shay\u2019s eight-week stretch in 2018-19 and Luke Bryan\u2019s six-week streak in 2014.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn earlier eras, the feat was far less common, with just two two-week runs \u2014 by Willie Nelson in 1982 and Buck Owens in 1964. That context makes Langley\u2019s current stretch especially notable \u2014 not only as the longest by a woman, but as a standout in today\u2019s more robust multimetric environment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ubpass.co\/billboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><br \/>\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/2HpFicp.png\" alt=\"Billboard VIP Pass\" style=\"max-width: 100%;height: auto\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/chart-beat\/ella-langley-beyonce-taylor-swift-top-2-hot-country-songs-1236201316\/\">Aller \u00e0 la source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ella Langley extends her double-up atop Billboard\u2019s Hot Country Songs chart (dated March 21), as \u201cChoosin\u2019 Texas\u201d and \u201cBe Her\u201d remain at Nos. 1 and 2, respectively.
