Selena Gomez<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Rema<\/strong>\u00a0will need to “Calm Down” when they hear about the record they just broke.<\/p>\n

The duet has been on\u00a0Billboard<\/em>‘s Pop Airplay<\/a>\u00a0chart for a whopping 64 weeks, making it the longest-running song since the chart’s debut more than 31 years ago. The song first appeared on the chart in November 2022 and spent five weeks at #1. It’s currently #12.<\/p>\n

“Calm Down” was previously in a tie with\u00a0Harry Styles<\/strong>‘ “As It Was” for the longest-running song: Both had spent 63 weeks on the chart until now. The next longest-running song is\u00a0The Weeknd<\/strong>‘s “Blinding Lights,” which spent 60 weeks on the chart starting in 2020.<\/p>\n

“Calm Down” has also spent the most weeks in the chart’s Top 10: a total of 45.<\/p>\n

The original version of “Calm Down” was released in February 2022. The remix with Selena came out that August.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last year, Rema told\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u00a0what inspired the track. “I was at a party, and a couple of girls walked in, and I saw a girl in yellow. I wanted to talk to her, and her friends were being really stuck up. They didn\u2019t really want to chat. And I was like, \u2018Yo, just calm down. Let\u2019s have a chat.\u2019 And then she actually calmed down, and we started talking and dancing.”<\/p>\n
