Ella Langley's 'Choosin' Texas' Sets New Billboard Hot 100 Record

Ella Langley's "Choosin' Texas" has officially become the longest-running number one song in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The country ballad has now held the top spot for 23 nonconsecutive weeks, surpassing the previous record of 22 weeks set by Mariah Carey's iconic holiday hit, "All I Want for Christmas Is You."

The song's remarkable chart performance marks a significant achievement for Langley and the country music genre, demonstrating its broad appeal beyond traditional demographics. "Choosin' Texas," released last October as the lead single from Langley's album "Dandelion," has captivated audiences and maintained its popularity throughout the year.
