Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” is holding the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and is now tied with a record for the most weeks at number one. Both outlets report that the song has spent 22 weeks at the top.
The timing also places it close to surpassing Mariah Carey’s long-running holiday hit “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which has been the benchmark for longevity at No. 1. Rolling Stone frames the next-week outlook as potentially decisive, suggesting Langley’s run could extend beyond Carey's record if it continues.
While the coverage aligns on the key chart milestones—Langley’s 22 weeks at No. 1 and the tie to the most-weeks record—the outlets differ slightly in emphasis. Rolling Stone highlights the “Choosin’ Texas” connection to the Carey comparison in the context of Christmas chart history, while the other source focuses more directly on the record-tying achievement and how narrowly Langley is positioned to break it.
