I Can’t Believe Lil Nas X’s ‘Old Town Road’ Dethroned Mariah Carey
This week:
If there’s one thing Titanic taught me, it’s that it’s freeing to feel real damn old. Just toss that hella expensive diamond into the ocean. You don’t need it! You’re old! Floating doors are women-only!
This week specifically reminded me that it’s been 84 years since I felt young, because the Lil Nas X song “Old Town Road” is now, arguably, the most popular song of all-time. According to Billboard, Lil Nas X has been the number one song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 17 weeks, making it the longest-running song to ever hold that position.
