Ella Langley’s 'Choosin' Texas' breaks Billboard Hot 100 record
trying to make sense of "choosin' texas" takery. tl dr I think we're in a culturally improved place overall if choosin texas is bigger than morgan wallen (yes he is probably coming home to roost but i'm hoping against hope he won't) www.dontrocktheinbox.com/t/
yes, this is my response to that idiotic nyt op ed (which one well...all of them)
"a beacon at the other end of such a long Morgan Wallen-made tunnel" this seems very true! (I did get it stuck in my head eventually!)
Fantastic, of course. Noting that it is telling that this, authored by a right-wing middle-aged white man, is the NYT piece that somehow did *not* evoke yet another screed against know-nothing media political apparatchiks with an agenda to destroy country music.
‘Choosin’ Texas’ by Ella Langley is now the sole longest-running #1 in Billboard Hot 100 history. (23 weeks)
A band covered this at an outdoor venue in north Florida near St Augustine with around 150 people. I'd venture less than 20% had heard the song before and most didn't like it. Billboard is completely unreal.
How did we let a character made up for a credit card commercial have a number one hit?
Never heard or heard of this song or this person.
I've only ever heard this song mentioned one time. I've never actually heard the song itself, but allow me to summarize it for you: "Texas [jerkoff motion]" x25
it's a perfectly good song. don't let people negatively polarize you against music imo
I have heard no one refer to this song irl
a very difficult trivia answer in 5 years 👇
Thank God for @imaginarygaychart.bsky.social 💕🫶
Listen i know she’s not marketed to me but my 23 and 17 year old kids have never heard of her either
sorry gang but we are going to have to try summer again from the top
This is like when you learn a CBS procedural gets like 5 times the viewers on a weekly basis that Game of Thrones got.
This is not a bad song by any means. But it staying this high for this long is wild.
i have never heard this song before and just put it on this is paint by numbers music slop
If you ever wondered if American culture really has become a zombie wasteland in which even supposed customers barely have agency or if people are making too much of that, I am as music-obsessed as a person can be and I have never heard this entire song. It also has its own energy drink!
“Choosin’ Texas” by Ella Langley officially surpasses “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey as the longest-running #1 hit in history (23 weeks).
there are 70 million people for whom this is the biggest song in the world. they watch comedies called like "Wives of Jim" that have run for nine seasons. they're usually pretty affable in person. in 2024 they severed the fate of humanity because of egg prices
I've heard this Unstoppable Most Popular Song Of All Time two times, both times while trying to confirm whether I've heard it or not. Soon I'll have to check a third time
Never heard of this woman or this song 🫡
Idk man I think everyone dramatically posting “But I’ve never heard this song!” might just be telling on themselves a tad You can realize you live in a bit of a bubble without it being some Big Thing™️ about modern media consumption patterns or shifts in popular culture
I listen to more new music than anyone I know and probably anyone you know, and not only have I never heard this song, I didn’t even know it existed until this week
I have truly never heard of this song nor do I know who this is...
Tá bom, quando chegar em novembro a gente tira essa mocreia e coloca a Mariah no topo de novo
Auburn gets a win this week
This website is genuinely worse/more embarrassing than reddit when it comes to “I’ve never heard of this extremely popular thing” discourse.
