Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ Tops Billboard Hot 100 for 18th Week, One Away From Record

“A Bar Song (Tipsy),” on American Dogwood/EMPIRE (with country radio promotion by Magnolia Music), totaled 69.2 million radio airplay audience impressions (down 2% week-over-week), 19.9 million official streams (down 6%) and 6,000 sold (up 16%) in the United States Nov. 8-14.

The track holds for a 16th week at No. 1 on the Radio Songs chart; rises 3-2 after 14 weeks atop Digital Song Sales; and keeps at No. 5 following nine weeks ruling Streaming Songs.

Below is a recap of the five longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1s, of 1,175 total leaders dating to the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958, start. (All five have led since the list adopted electronically-monitored Luminate data in November 1991, at which point longer commands than before subsequently became more common.)

Gracie Abrams’ “That’s So True” soars 13-6 on the Hot 100 with 23.5 million streams (up 25%), 1.9 million in airplay audience (up 453%) and 3,000 sold (up 20%) Nov. 8-14.

The singer-songwriter scores her first Hot 100 top 10 with the song from the deluxe edition, released Oct. 18, of her album The Secret of Us. The track debuted at No. 44 on the Nov. 2-dated chart and then rose to Nos. 25 and 13. She has notched two prior top 40 hits: “Us.,” featuring Taylor Swift (No. 36 peak, July), and “I Love You, I’m Sorry” (No. 19, October).

Notably, as airplay builds for “That’s So True,” Abrams appears on Billboard airplay charts with two other songs, both on the original and deluxe editions of The Secret of Us: “Close to You” ranks at No. 23 on Pop Airplay (after hitting No. 21) and “I Love You, I’m Sorry” places at No. 40 on Adult Pop Airplay (after reaching No. 36).

“That’s So True” concurrently surges 7-1 to become Abrams’ first leader on Streaming Songs.

Abrams has opened on over three dozen dates of Swift’s The Eras Tour, serving as the sole opener for all shows since Oct. 18; she is also set to be the only supporting act for the remaining dates of the groundbreaking tour through Dec. 8.

Meanwhile, Abrams is the latest artist to reap chart benefits from exposure of a coveted opening spot on Swift’s The Eras Tour. She becomes the third such act during the tour, which launched in March 2023, to have hit the Hot 100’s top 10, following Sabrina Carpenter and Benson Boone.

Here’s a recap of every opening act on The Eras Tour that has hit the Hot 100’s top 10 since the tour began; all have done so this year, and after not previously reaching the top 10:

Swift has added 19 Hot 100 top 10s since The Eras Tour started, upping her career count to 59, the most among women in the list’s history.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” holds for a third week at its No. 2 Hot 100 high. As previously reported, it ascends to No. 1 on the Pop Airplay chart. It also jumps 8-5 on Radio Songs (51.3 million in audience, up 4%), where, notably, Gaga ranks in the top five for the first time since “The Edge of Glory” hit No. 4 in 2011.

Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” keeps at No. 3 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 2. It tops the multimetric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Alternative Songs charts for a 15th week each.

Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” is steady at No. 4 on the Hot 100, after hitting No. 3, while her “Taste” slips 7-8, after it debuted at its No. 2 high.

Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” which led the Hot 100 for a week in March, repeats at No. 5. The song ties The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s 2021 hit “Stay” for the second-most weeks (44) logged in the top 10 all-time; they trail only the run of The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” (57 weeks, 2020-21).

Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen, descends 6-7 on the Hot 100, following six weeks at No. 1 beginning upon its debut in May.

Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, Benson Boone’s No. 2-peaking “Beautiful Things” dips 8-9 and Wallen’s “Love Somebody” falls 9-10, three weeks after it debuted as his third No. 1.
