Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” rebounds for a 17th week at No. 1 on Billboard’s Adult Pop Airplay chart (dated July 8), claiming the mark all to itself for the longest reign for a song by a woman in the chart’s history.

“Flowers,” released on Smiley Miley/Columbia Records, wrests the record from Avril Lavigne’s “Complicated,” the latter’s debut hit that ruled for 16 weeks beginning in August 2002.

Among all acts, “Flowers” ties for the sixth-longest Adult Pop Airplay command. Here’s a recap of the list’s longest-leading No. 1s, as the format has segued from a hot adult contemporary focus at its start to a more alternative lean in the late ‘90s and into the 2000s, and a shift back toward purer pop in more recent years.

 

Most Weeks at No. 1 on Adult Pop Airplay Chart:

  • 25, “Smooth,” Santana feat. Rob Thomas, beginning Oct. 23, 1999
  • 23, “Wherever You Will Go,” The Calling, Dec. 22, 2001
  • 20, “Blinding Lights,” The Weeknd, May 23, 2020
  • 18, “Photograph,” Nickelback, Oct. 29, 2005
  • 18, “Unwell,” matchbox twenty, May 3, 2003
  • 17, “Flowers,” Miley Cyrus, March 4, 2023
  • 17, “Iris,” Goo Goo Dolls, Aug. 1, 1998
  • 16, “Complicated,” Avril Lavigne, Aug. 3, 2002
  • 15, “High Hopes,” Panic! At the Disco, Dec. 8, 2018
  • 15, “How To Save a Life,” The Fray, Nov. 4, 2006
  • 15, “Don’t Speak,” No Doubt, Dec. 28, 1996

That damn cult

Pop culture is suffering from a lack of superstars/bankable stars. Miley, Drake, Taylor, Beyoncé— we haven’t had anyone on that level in years
