On AT40, if BØRNS can debut with "Electric Love" before "Lean On" by Major Lazer & DJ Snake f/MØ falls off, I'm willing to bet it'll be the only time in Top 40 history when we'll see two different acts with an empty set (Ø) in their name.

Incredible achievement for a legend with truly timeless music. It shocks and depresses me who is #2 on the all-time #1 albums behind the Beatles and who is #2 behind Elvis with Top 40 hits. Those two don't belong in the class of legends like those. Just listening to the 10/4/86 show, and Casey did a piece about Conway Twitty's 40 #1 country hits being an all-time record for any chart (and twice as many as the Beatles had on the pop chart). I have to imagine that one would be nearly unbreakable... It has since been broken by George Strait who has 44 #1 country hits. It don't surprise me this record was broken. A #1 on the Country Chart is a dime a dozen.

Another timeless legend who deserves every record she breaks! She seems so genuine. With all her achievements she could be the ultimate diva but deflects every credit and honor she gets to everyone else. There'll never be another one like her. She is also respectful of everyone she works with. Cool to see her doing something with Pentatonix and she gives them so much credit for their talent. She was recently here for a concert in Southern Indiana and gave interviews to the local stations. To hear her talk, it was like it was her only tour date and she gave so much love to the fans...along the lines of, I am so blessed that they would come to see me. Yes we would love to come see you and thanks Dolly for coming to see us!

"Radioactive" spending 87 weeks on the chart is now an unbeatable record because of Billboard's 52 week rule.

Madonna has 46 #1s on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart -- far ahead of anyone else. And each time she puts out an album, her tally continues to rise. If anyone ever broke that record, it'd probably be Rihanna.
And on AT40, there are currently two acts who replace the "A" in their names with an upside down "V," and they landed back-to-back in February: MΛX and CΛRDI B.

Drake debuting inside the Top 40 with 17 different hits on the Billboard Hot 100. Most albums don't have 17 hits, so breaking this record would be extremely difficult.
Along with having 4 additional hits in the Top 40, that gives him 21 Top 40 hits in a single week, for the week of July 14, 2018.

How about a song on Ryan Seacrest AT40 entering at #2? It hasn't happend since a Shadoe Stevens Radio Monitor AT40 show in October 1992 when Madonna entered at #2 with "Erotica".

A few weeks ago, Ryan mentioned that for the first time in AT40 history, one #1 country song, "A Bar Song," replaced another #1 country song, "I Had Some Help," at #1.

THAT is a mistake! In 1981, "I Love a Rainy Night" replaced "9 to 5" at #1. Both are #1 country songs.
I just realized what happened here. He is using the R&R chart for his data. You CANNOT do that. When you say 'first time in AT40 history', you have to revert to that history. Now if he wants to make CT40 the basis for AT40 history, I accept that. Meaning anything in 1989 until AT40 restarted in 1998 is based on CT40. But 1970 to 1989 has to be based on AT40. Heck, that's the period of time that the shows are reairing every week on Premiere. You have to use that data!
