I think it might finish around 70 weeks. It is at 54 and it is still top 10 on the Hot 100.

[rihannabiggestfan]

Wow, great list. You even listed The Four Seasons's "December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)", which my primary list doesn't have listed

 

In terms of lowest-peaking songs on that list with the most weeks, it's

 

Radioactive - #3 (87 weeks)

Sail - #17 (79 weeks)

My Ex's Best Friend - #20 (52 weeks)

I always liked Save Your Tears but I was a Hardest to Love stan from the beginning so I had to push the narrative of it would have smashed  as a single. No regrets.

Love that song 

 

Blinding lights 

[mystery]

Updated with the newest chart!

Levitating rises to #8, tying as the second longest running female song on the chart with You Were Meant for Me/Foolish Games and Rolling in the Deep. Carrie Underwood leaves the Top 10. Save Your Tears rises to #25 and Heat Waves rises to #36! All three should most likely chart next week as well.

[mystery]

Updated with the newest chart!

Levitating rises to #6, it needs only one more week to tie as the longest running female song on the chart with How Do I Live. Save Your Tears rises to #17 and Heat Waves enters the Top 25 at #23, with no sign of slowing down it seems poised to enter the Top 10 soon! The three songs are all looking at an appearance on the chart next week.

[Armani?]

Too Close charting for 53 weeks back then

hence why it beat The Boy Is Mine for da number one song of 1998

[slw84]

levitating should hit 5th place

[mystery]

Updated with the newest chart!

Levitating climbs to #5, it ties as the longest running female song on the chart with How Do I Live.

Save Your Tears rises to the Top 15 at #15. It is looking like it might be a Top 10 contender depending on the next 5 weeks, more likely that it will not enter.

Heat Waves enters the Top 20 at #20, it is rising fast and with it hitting #1 only this week it seems poised to go quite high. I think we may have a challenger for Blinding Lights with it.

All three songs are all looking at an appearance on the chart next week.

Updated with the newest chart!

Levitating remains at #5, rising in positions on the chart this week it continues to comfortably add more weeks to its running total. With no major releases in sight to throw it out it seems to be pacing to surpass I'm Yours in the coming weeks to claim the #4 spot.

Save Your Tears rises to the edge of the Top 10 at #9. Just like Levitating the song continues to perform well with no threat of going recurrent in the coming weeks. Next week it will surpass Rolling In The Deep and You Were Meant for Me/Foolish Games to become the ninth longest running song overall. Throwing out Rolling In The Deep as it does so.

As it currently stands Dua has the #1 longest running female song ever followed by LeAnn Rimes at #2, Lauren Bennett at #3 as a feature on LMFAO, Jewel at #4 and Adele at #5. In the coming weeks we should easily see Ariana climb to the #3 spot and maybe even become a #2 contender.

Heat Waves rises to the Top 15 at #13, with it still being #1 and showing no sign of slowing down it is bound to chart for quite some time. We will likely see it outlast Levitating and Save Your Tears and go even further to maybe even challenge for the #1 spot overall.

All three songs are all looking at an appearance on the chart next week.
