Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” remains at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a 20th week, extending its run as a lead single. Billboard reports it becomes the second song overall to spend 20 or more weeks at the top spot.
The New York Times likewise says the track sets a record for a non-holiday song, reaching its 20th consecutive week at No. 1. The paper places the achievement in the broader context of the chart’s current landscape, noting that country titles dominate the Hot 100 during the same period. It also references Dolly Parton’s return to the chart in the week Langley maintains the top position.
